The boys are back again, and this week are joined by Matt from Matt Talks Tech (750k+ subscribers). Chat kicks off with iPhone 17 Pro camera issues, with Alex, Daniel & Matt all experiencing an issue with the new 4x telephoto camera on the 17 Pro.
One UI 8.5 has leaked out, and Daniel talks to us about how the build has leaked and also what changes Samsung are making (including some very iOS-like customisation features for the Quick Panel).
David brings up content creation rigs using a smartphone, and at one point, should you just buy a camera instead of using a phone?
The boys discuss the advantages and disadvantages of phone setups.
Chat then moves to YouTube and how Linus has been experiencing some view discrepancies.
Matt tells us how he uploads every day, Alex goes on a rant about a certain camera comparison, and David has issues with Apple Support. All that and more on this week’s Minus Sixteen!
