Apple vs The Paradox of Choice!

To continue to learn way more about sharks! --> curiositystream.com/MKBHD

Marques scrolling through his Find My iPhone device list is the ultimate flex.

Marques just casually made a video to spend the time while waiting for his Magic Mouse to finish charging lol

The flashlight one kills me. Having worked as a tech for years now, it pains me the amount of people using sketchy flashlight apps not realizing it's built into their phone.

I'd also like to add that in the case of the Apple pencil, Apple's UITouch API only shares a small subset of the iPad's data touch points, forcing third-party developers to create complex and processor-intensive algorithms to guesstimate their pen's touch location, draw trajectory, and palm rejection. Apple, on the other hand, has access to ALL of the iPad's data touch points, ensuring that their apple pencil will always outperform the competitors. Sure, as a consumer you still technically have a choice, but the fact that apple witholds important data that cripples their competitors really delves into the realm of monopolistic practices.

Apple needs to be the shark in creating a damn calculator app for the iPad already.

The motion graphics at 4:35 , just wow.

This could legit be shown in an economics class as a starter video. Well done.

I already had high expectations going into this video, but you still managed to absolutely shatter them. This was one of the most interesting, well-written, and easy-to-understand videos I have ever watched. Great job Marques and team!

I love how Marques is slowly shifting from analysing the products specs to analysing the companies predatory behavior.

This was the most straightforward, practical, and interesting lesson on tech and economics I've ever experienced

It's important to note that Apple doesn't allow any other stylus to have tilt detection, so real high-end competition is not possible. I think that should raise their anticompetitiveness score.

You roped in sharks, business ethics, economics, technology, and an advertisement into one segment and made them flow together seamlessly. Skillfully done and I would have enjoyed reading it if you put all of this information into an article. Next level writing on this one.

This is what a lead tech YouTuber should be doing. Not sitting on his haunches, but bringing deep, fresh perspective and analysis. Good one, Marques.

that magic mouse charging in the background and that giant airpod lmao, marques be putting easter eggs in his vids

This, and your Right to Repair video, leave me with a sense of disquieting inevitability. I can't imagine a way to stop it. The more complex an ecosystem, or device, the more encompassing and invulnerable it becomes.

I love that Marques has such a large platform, yet he's still willing to give all of us the big picture perspective of the behind the scenes dynamics.

Marques', "you can choose to. Technically" face was absolutely priceless.

I gotta be honest.. I always loved the ecosystem of apples devices, as it really makes things more easy and intuitive. But now that I watched this video, I am questioning my past decision making.
