Description

This is the week you've been waiting for. A lifelong Samsung fanboy has switched to iPhone and is ready to talk about it.


 


This week, the boys begin the chat with the obvious, Daniel's switch to iPhone. David has been watching his content and is picking his brain about what it's been like for him. Daniel, to be fair, has been fair to the iPhone (after the initial pain of switching) and highlights where he thinks the fundamental difference lies between Samsung & Apple.


 


Alex (initially joining from his car) offers insights into the iPhone’s camera setup up and David has been using the iPhone Air out and about to put the battery life through its paces.


 


iPhone & Apple chat continues, and both David & Alex ask Daniel for insights into life as an iPhone user for the first time ever. Daniel offers plenty of thoughts and detailed research into what using iOS has been like.


 


With that lengthy chat done, the boys turned their attention to YouTube and discussed A/B testing, AdSense, and tools, before sharing a final thought on iPhones...and Daniel reveals whether he is keeping the Pro Max or returning it...


 


All that and more on this week’s Minus Sixteen!
