lmao and here I keep hearing about how MKBHD is SOOOOOO unbiased and has a following because he doesn’t give easy reviews

His review on those AI gadgets were pretty scathing. Though, the claim here is that he is biased for Apple, not for whoever sends him devices.

In another video on what his favorite phone is though, he picks an android. He does use both phones daily though because he likes to stay up to date and enmeshed in both OSes for his job. He prefers android though. If he covers a lot of Apple videos it’s probably just because those attract the most clicks. There is an entire media ecosystem around Apple. Some YouTubers purely post speculation videos about Apple. Many just repost different variations of Apple’s history and the Steve Jobs story.

People critical of Apple get put on the Apple media blacklist.
MKBHD sucks up to Apple so he keeps getting early access to their events because Apple = Views.
