Tech YouTuber Confessions - Episode 1 #Helpful Post

so I'm doing this thing called tech

confessions tech confessions okay I

might have a couple of those kind of

confess don't tell anyone

he's a Mac it's doing care about that

yeah in the MacBook everyday MacBook

I thought you do gaming yeah see now

that well actually do that on netbooks

too sometimes but that's only because

I'm stupid why do you use a Mac

 

du bien welcome to tech confessions the

video I personally didn't think I would

ever make it was inspired because over

the past month or two as much as it

pains me to admit I've been using a

magic mouse and the big deal here is

I've personally gone on record and said

I don't like this Mouse terrible I

praised a lot of tech performance MX and

I don't know if it's just laziness or

partially enjoying the space grey color

or maybe deep down I like a little

slight aside scroll action but for

whatever reason every time I got on the

computer I realize I'm using it I think

to myself why the hell are using this I

only started using a mouse about two

months ago that's right I've been using

a Bluetooth trackpad for eight years my

very first job at a college I was a

software engineer and I saw my boss at

the time was using an external trackpad

and I thought I was weird that he paid

money to use a laptop trackpad outside

of the context of a laptop just beside

it instead and for some reason I bought

one because he was my boss and I was

like well if he's got one I got to use

it and I used that for eight years eight

years everything programming editing

making music everything I've used that

thing and I finally got a mouse two

months ago and it has changed my life

and it was not easy for me to admit but

that's my tech confession

I've kind of built up a reputation on

YouTube as an audio file which saying

out loud it sounds like the douchiest

thing ever yet my number one most used

pair of headphones is Apple earpods

which is so convenient I loved their

size I loved the battery life I love

that I can just pop them in my ear I

don't have a cable they automatically

connect to my phone I can walk away from

my laptop when I'm watching Netflix

they're just handiest thing ever no they

don't sound good

but they also don't sound well and at a

hundred and $69 I really really like

them and I use them more than anything

else the first might be as a tech

youtuber I buy every new flagship that

comes out lots and lots of cell phones

but my daily driver is a phone I bought

a year and a half ago the Galaxy S a

just haven't been worth my time to

change over yet makes me wonder what

kind of tech youtuber I really am on the

inside

also I'm team headphone jack don't get

me wrong but I was thinking the other

day when the last time I actually used

my headphone jack was there's been like

six months I still like it I still want

it but I don't actually use it as much

as I thought I did when it comes to the

iPhone I use a lot of stock apps I

actually like the Apple Mail app and the

Notes app I know there are so many good

apps out there to replace that but it

just seems simple to me

does that make me a noob and only for my

boy John when I go on the internet and

expose myself mess with my street cred

but for my tech confession even though

I'm a tech reviewer and I've tested tons

and tons of smart phones I am an

absolute terrible texture when it comes

to typing on smartphones

I am very slow I mean look at this the

quick

Brown listen I'm not even gonna go

and show how bad I am at texting but

that's that's me I'm not exaggerating

this is just how long it takes so this

is why I use you know keyboards like G

board and I can just swipe boom you see

stuff like that that's why I swipe

texting is horrible for me but you can't

come at my keyboard skills with an

actual keyboard I'm a beast at that

trust me but when it comes to a

smartphone I'm terrible the worst hey

I'm Brandon and the tech that I'm most

ashamed of is probably the August smart

law now this is the source of endless

ridicule from friends and a lot of

mental agitation the simple fact is it

just takes a ton less time to pull out

your key instead of waiting for Siri or

the August smart lock app to actually

unlock your door for you and that's not

even taking in the inevitability of Siri

just refusing to unlock your door for

you or your phone crashing and having to

restart it a couple times to actually

make your door unlock I don't really

have a great explanation for why I still

own this piece of technology or why I

still have it installed on my front door

mostly probably because I don't know how

to take it off but moral the story is if

you want to keep your friends and you

don't want to be made fun of don't buy

the August Mart home lock don't waste

your time and while we're confessing

things I have to get off my chest that I

am super jealous of the Apple watch I

wish there was an Android equivalent

that thing does so much anyway that's it

don't tell anyone talk to you later

date is this crazy color-changing TV

media set up a link annexed to my face
