How Tech Companies Manipulate the Media ft. MKBHD

Do consider sharing this message, so it reaches the people it needs to reach 👊
Also First video with the new Camera! Who can tell the difference?

I know I’m late to this party but there’s a very very simple solution here - stop doing first impression reviews 🤷🏼‍♂️

If you all stopped giving those first impression reviews then businesses would have to wait until the full embargo is lifted

Tech companies are manipulating reviewers. Reviewers are manipulating users

Always felt like mk was being manipulated 😂....but Boss just goes hard on brands if necessary good job my ppl i love ur videos 😂 i wanna be like u some day

Oh thats great 🤔 !!!???

2 years later after that video you became manipulated by Apple, You never criticize it, so tha question is :"how much they.....?

I might be stupid. But, why the hell can companies just tell the reviewers what they can or what they cant do??? Bitch i will say anything i want. Ooooh wait or is it like if you get the product before its out?

Your worst promotion is Huel, I bought that and it sucks. It’s expensive and all flavours were shit. I gave my 3 packets worth 75 € to a busker.

👍👍👍

Hopefully it puts your mind at ease that there are consumers out there like myself who will take the time to actually research any quotes posted by a company to make their product look more favorable due to said quote. But thank you for making a video that's transparently showing how these companies operate in regards to tech reviewers.

You got yourself a new subscriber 🤝

Not sure if this counts, but my phone comes with a 22.5W charger, but only supports 18W charging. Maybe to trick people into thinking it's 22.5? It's a poco m4 5G.

what a fantastic video

In 2023. Who is still being manipulated?

My question is does apple do the same because they seem to be missing from this video

Thisis why you did 2 separate video for iPhone 15

Ok and ? I think you get enough money form current audience that you can go and buy and iphone yourself or and other tech and give a honest review… you won’t be the first one who gets the iphone or review, but you will at least be honest … ( doesn’t matter how you got the current audience,complying to those rules of embargo or dual embargo)

Can anyone name a corporation that truly prioritizes honesty in their product offerings?

Omg Jerry right everything sound like a ducking answering machine, monotone af

One thing I notice with mostly Phone companies is their "regional only" features. They announce some big features on their launch-shows, turns out its only available in china and not in Europe and America. Then you have the hype for that big feature, buy the phone and you don't even get that feature.

Salute to jays2cents for being honest on GPU.

Man you have one video that make comparison between adidas and Nike how you chouse and how the brads manipulate us and I try to find this video but I don't remember the name of the video, can u help me please ! Thanks !

It’s funny how this video auto played just after your iPhone 15 review on launch day !! 😅

Why do i feel like this is lew(unboxing therapy)'s motto.

Their not gonna get anymore sponsors after this

No way…really? Companies can’t be trusted? No shit.

It astonishes me that people, at least in developed nations with what should be decent schools, can reach adulthood without knowing even the basics of how companies manipulate everyone.

Nevertheless, a great video and a genuine public service.

you are part of the media.....so i guess you also mean how they manipulate you and why you put up with it...:)

Stop complaining. If you're not sold out, then you can buy the product with your own money, and then you'd have the right to review it however you see fit

From what I understand the nothing headphones are pretty good so I think that was a pretty low risk proposition... I say that because Carl pai has some pedigree and he's done some things with one plus that were noteworthy, so for him I would accept the offer as an influencer until you let me down my man, until you let me down lol

But if it's a no name company, hell no you got to prove yourself to me first... The irony is the fact that I say this defending a company called nothing 😂

Boss fr. 💪🏻

media framing. nothing new. they are for profit companies.

The only reason I'm buying a new phone is just for the camera space and network I don't care if its the latest cuz as a phone engineer I know all the phones are one and the company is just trying to make money

I appreciate your video's thanks

Love the video.
Also love the tiny details placed in the embargo's visual example. Hahaha!
"We love money. And so we will happily take yours by sueing you if you breach this contract and leak the device. We will find you, and we will liquidate key assets such as Astley, Richard and other company property."
Thanks for the great laugh!

Protect me Jesus not demon

Thank you for being brave and exposing the dark sude of tech

I guess the same happened with fold5. I see lot of reviewers using the same words.

It is interesting how reviewers are cornered why allowed some flexibility so it doesn't look same.
I am surprised of Samsung, their hardware is good. Hype of unfinished feature works until one experiences first disappointment.

what happens if you break the embargo

Also if a quote is potentially ambiguous are various interpretations not a direct consequence thereof ??

In a nutshell; companies try to convert your vidz into potential sales==> no sales --> no companies == no products for you to make videos on. You guys should be thankful there is actually something to report on🤔🤔

Its called.....'PSY-OPs'. Its all they can do, dont even worry about them. Corporations are all shit.

Alphabet agencies are Involved 100%.
Theyve been exposed.

This is why i often suggest against buying a recently launched phones, instead it should be at least 6-12 months old. where all the things are well tested and we get to know most of the issues, even about how the after sell support is. We all know there won't be any revolutionary changes to the smartphones, so use the one you have as long as you can.
