i Ditched my iPhone XS Max

2019-07-19
a portion of today's video is sponsored by LastPass you guys johnathan here and this is a story of how I ditched my iphone tennis max ultimately ended up with the iPhone 10 R and at the end of it why I feel like it is the best iPhone for most people not normally or at least in my head I'm team no case but I've dropped and I've broken way too many phones for that to even make sense so as much as I don't want to I usually rock a case this is was my iPhone 10s Macs in a case it may be like four five months ago for whatever reason I took it out of its case and was like oh my god this feels amazing I'm gonna leave it out bad idea not even a week later my dumb ass drops the phone and it might not look that bad in the case but underneath is a completely different sad story to the point where it's not like your typical just got a spiderweb crack in there it is nightmare cracked all the way down to the inside of the phone to the point where I figure it's probably not smart to continue using this unless I want a glass in my face now opposed to fixing it or trying to replace it I figured this was the perfect chance to put my money where my mouth was because I've talked about it before and felt that the iPhone 10 R was the iPhone that most people should buy and after switching what surprised me most wasn't that I enjoyed the iPhone 10 R but rather that I didn't miss the iPhone 10 s Mac's not even 1% what's also surprising is the amount of people who still use one two three four five six seven eight as their password is 2019 knock it off check out LastPass and I get a big thanks to them for sponsoring this portion of the video so LastPass is kind of like your own personal assistant that remembers all your passwords for you and I feel like this has happened to you before where your mom your dad your grandma grandpa gets locked out of their phone and who do they call you with LastPass you're not gonna have to write grandma's password down so when she calls you can talk about other things grandma's didn't want to talk about passwords she rather talk about the Clippers being better than the Lakers and when she's ready to order those sweet Nuka wise LastPass makes that simple - it stores a credit card her shipping info one click Graham's got the kicks and more importantly it keeps all that secure which deep down is something we want not just for our grandmas but for ourselves as well check out LastPass for free or ball out with the premium version for three bucks a month linked below and again big thanks to them for sponsoring this portion of the video now with the iPhone 10 R I realized that budget and seven hundred and fifty dollars don't necessarily go together in the same sentence and I still feel that if Apple would have charged $6.99 for the iPhone 10 R it would have felt like a much better deal but regardless it's still the cheapest current gen iPhone you can pick up with really not many sacrifices at all what you're giving up with the iPhone 10 are essentially comes down to two things no display and that secondary telephoto lens which I have missed the amount of championships the Lakers are gonna win with LeBron zero you get the exact same a twelve banach chip and found in the iPhone 10s and 10's max you're not sacrificing performance you do however have one gig less of RAM and I realize the RAM Warriors about to freak out in the comments but to be honest I haven't noticed a difference it is a really fast phone now clearly I have not learned my lesson with the iPhone tennis and Mac's because I have not used a case once with the iPhone 10 R I'm not sure if it's the sides which somehow feel grippier to me or if it's the actual size of the phone but I haven't come close to dropping this once whereas what's the iPhone 10's max if you're not using a case that thing is ready to jump speaking of size I think there is some truth to that because I've always felt the iPhone 10's max was just a little too big I love the form factor of the smaller iPhone 10s so devlin 10 R is set perfect meet in the middle almost like the Goldilocks of iPhones it's not too big it's not too small it's just right hands-down though the biggest benefit of using an iPhone 10 R is battery life it is night and day better than any other iPhone I think that in itself is why most people should buy this phone and really the iPhone ten-hour battery life is kind of like Batman it's not the feature you need it is the feature you deserve I realize at this point the iPhone 10 R is now this weird Goldilocks Batman hybrid but for real I can get to the end of the day no problem to the point where sometimes I don't even charge my phone until the next day now jumping back to those sacrifices what I was most scared of was going from OLED to LCD and I'm not gonna sit here and paint this magical story that Apple somehow invented this LCD panel that's better than OLED because it's not you can definitely see a difference but after about a week I didn't find myself needing to go back which is crazy at this point if you're still bashing into those sweet cherry MX is about resolution we got a rewind for a second is the 10r huh Wow feel free to drop some FS to pay respect to the Fallen poco phone boys because clearly resolution isn't everything and I can assure you it is a really fantastic display and the other thing you got to remember is most people who are upgrading to the iPhone 10 are aren't coming from an oled display now again that second sacrifice with the iPhone 10 are is the lack of that secondary telephoto lens which strangely enough has been a benefit for me with the iPhone 10s and 10's max that uses that secondary telephoto lens for portrait mode whereas with the iPhone 10 R that uses the main wide angle lens found on that from tennis and tennis max and that actually performs better in low light with an f-stop of 1.8 versus 2.4 yes the focal length is different so you're physically gonna need to move yourself and the phone closer to the subject but because of that better low-light performance I found myself way happier with the portrait shots on the iPhone 10 are one really annoying thing that I got to point out there from 10 R is in portrait mode unlike the iPhone 10s and 10's max you need to have an actual person in the shot for it to work which is dumb but aside from that the overall performance on the camera with the iPhone 10 R has been incredible that's something I don't think Apple has really gotten enough credit for and that's not just with the iPhone 10 R but the iPhone 10s and 10's max as well the camera tech paired with the camera software is ridiculous and I think it's gotten better over time particularly the smart HDR which still blows my mind this shot here almost doesn't make sense it's taken from the inside but the outdoor windows and the inside is all exposed perfectly like you could not do this with a normal camera it's bananas so you get an incredible camera a great display and more importantly better battery life than any other iPhone I think that right there is the trifecta of what most people need for a smartphone and not gonna lie I really really like the color options Tim please don't get rid of my blue again with the iPhone 10 or you get essentially everything you would with the iPhone 10s and 10's max face ID wireless charging you do miss out on 3d touch which I honestly forgot about and tell this exact moment so it's not a huge deal but let that sink in especially with these new iPhones around the corner the iPhone 11 the iPhone 11 max but don't sleep on the alleged iPhone 11 R which I think again will be the iPhone that most people should buy thank you guys very much for watching hopefully enjoyed the video if you did make sure you
