WEBVTT 00:00:00.060 --> 00:00:07.440 wow the nothing phone sure looks cool it'd be a shame if someone just I don't 00:00:04.799 --> 00:00:12.059 know ripped it off completely today we have the unihertz Luna phone which takes 00:00:10.500 --> 00:00:17.400 what you love most about the nothing phone the transparentness and LEDs and 00:00:15.000 --> 00:00:21.000 puts it in a budget case but can it surpass the kind of middle of the road 00:00:19.380 --> 00:00:25.680 performance of the nothing phone and create something spectacular probably 00:00:22.920 --> 00:00:28.619 not but let's find out the box has a glyphs on it which will be probably the 00:00:27.180 --> 00:00:33.180 patterns of the LEDs on the back of the phone Loot on the side and some information on the back but I don't want 00:00:31.260 --> 00:00:36.600 spoilers let's open it up and take a look what's inside just a piece of paper 00:00:34.800 --> 00:00:39.719 and the Sim popper which we'll take out as we'll need later all right in the 00:00:38.700 --> 00:00:46.260 paperwork here I can see we already don't need the SIM card because it does not have an SD card slot but it does 00:00:42.960 --> 00:00:47.399 have a dual physical nano SIM slot so if 00:00:46.260 --> 00:00:51.539 you travel a lot that's definitely convenient but losing the SD card slot I 00:00:49.559 --> 00:00:55.739 mean not great especially because of a lot of these budget phones do have that 00:00:52.860 --> 00:00:58.860 otherwise nothing interesting a lot of spoilers what we're gonna see in here we 00:00:57.300 --> 00:01:03.480 have the phone itself let's put to the side and see what else is in the Box here 00:01:01.140 --> 00:01:07.020 for a charger we have a 12 volt it feels very cheap like something you get at 00:01:05.220 --> 00:01:11.880 7-Eleven but I guess as long as it charges your phone that's good we also 00:01:08.640 --> 00:01:15.360 have a charging cable which is an a to c 00:01:11.880 --> 00:01:17.280 nothing too crazy there 00:01:15.360 --> 00:01:22.560 all right first impression just picking it up I haven't even looked at it yet this is heavy it feels like a brick 00:01:20.580 --> 00:01:26.880 which is surprising because again this is uh more budget oriented phone and 00:01:25.200 --> 00:01:30.060 this is heavier than an iPhone it's heavier than probably a folding phone 00:01:28.320 --> 00:01:33.540 which is nuts it comes with a case on it which is interesting I don't know what's 00:01:31.740 --> 00:01:37.860 wrong with the camera bump but it looks a little odd it's a little too low for 00:01:35.939 --> 00:01:43.079 me maybe I don't know what it is it's small there isn't a huge actual bump but 00:01:40.740 --> 00:01:46.740 it's because the phone is really thick really thick if you're if it's hard to 00:01:45.000 --> 00:01:49.979 tell this is a headphone jack and look how much space is around it yeah it's 00:01:48.360 --> 00:01:54.299 quite thick it's thicker than the nothing phone and the camera bump it 00:01:52.140 --> 00:01:59.100 looks like a cheaper knockoff it is just so small and it's such a weird spot but 00:01:56.820 --> 00:02:02.759 hey it it's something it's a design choice and maybe maybe you like it you 00:02:01.020 --> 00:02:06.780 like the look of the iPhone it looks like a razor like the iPhone does or a 00:02:05.219 --> 00:02:11.459 kind of a stove top as people call it but just really small for some reason on 00:02:09.300 --> 00:02:14.580 the front we have the 6.8 inch full HD Plus display they don't say what refresh 00:02:13.500 --> 00:02:18.540 rate it is we'll see when it turns on but I'm assuming it's 6 because otherwise they would probably be 00:02:16.920 --> 00:02:22.440 gloating about it on the right side of the phone here we have the fingerprint 00:02:20.040 --> 00:02:26.520 scanner and volume rocker buttons feel kind of mushy they feel a little close 00:02:24.480 --> 00:02:29.640 to the the phone as like when you turn it sideways here you can see there's not 00:02:27.780 --> 00:02:33.120 a whole lot of lift off of the rest of the body so it doesn't feel great it 00:02:31.980 --> 00:02:37.200 doesn't feel awful though the power button being flush I'm not a huge fan 00:02:35.099 --> 00:02:40.560 though on the top we have a you always make fun of me but uh I'm Mike hole 00:02:39.060 --> 00:02:44.580 we've got the Mike hole the antenna lines we have a headphone jack with 00:02:42.480 --> 00:02:48.300 ample space on either side and we have an IR blaster Great Prank your neighbors 00:02:46.920 --> 00:02:51.300 with it on the left side of the phone we have two hotkeys so you can set that up 00:02:49.980 --> 00:02:55.140 to be whatever you want I can see one being camera and the other being maybe 00:02:53.160 --> 00:02:58.680 your assistant if you like that but I don't know gentian impact quick launch 00:02:57.000 --> 00:03:04.080 and on the bottom we have the speaker Grille USBC charging and the Dual nano 00:03:01.980 --> 00:03:07.319 SIM card slot nothing too crazy on the body here we can see there's a bit of a 00:03:05.519 --> 00:03:10.379 cut out for the front facing camera there again I cannot understand how 00:03:09.120 --> 00:03:14.659 heavy this is let's actually give it away to see just how heavy it is 00:03:13.260 --> 00:03:20.519 give it away 300 grams that is heavy and again for 00:03:17.900 --> 00:03:24.120 what isn't really super spectacular looking like it's a plastic body for 00:03:22.800 --> 00:03:27.420 sure part of what could be making the phone heavier is its 5000 milliamp hour 00:03:25.860 --> 00:03:30.959 battery maybe that's part of it let's turn it on see what it has for specs and 00:03:29.280 --> 00:03:34.800 uh let's also tell you about our sponsor vesi thanks to vesi for sponsoring 00:03:33.180 --> 00:03:38.700 today's video vessi claims their shoes are 100 waterproof their new storm burst 00:03:37.319 --> 00:03:42.599 shoes combine the comfort of a

00:04:03.780 ShortCircuit for 15 off your entire order the whole thing oh I forgot to 00:04:02.099 --> 00:04:06.840 talk about the case uh so yeah it came with this on which was odd not just like 00:04:05.700 --> 00:04:13.200 in the packaging like some of the previous phones we've looked at and it's that crappy plastic rubbery one that 00:04:11.459 --> 00:04:17.880 comes with a lot of budget phones this phone is huge and this k will not stand 00:04:15.840 --> 00:04:21.120 a chance if you drop it but hey free stuff let's take a look at the 00:04:19.620 --> 00:04:24.240 fingerprint scanner I'm curious to see if it performs well I mean I assume 00:04:22.740 --> 00:04:28.800 seems like a hard thing to mess up but I have been surprised before this one here is in the power button so very 00:04:27.419 --> 00:04:33.720 convenient for for most people they enjoy that it is definitely growing on me I've said before that I didn't really 00:04:31.680 --> 00:04:37.199 like it but again I'm using the Oppo flip right now and it has a built into 00:04:35.040 --> 00:04:41.240 the power button and yeah it's fine all right let's see how fast it unlocks here 00:04:41.340 --> 00:04:45.840 that's pretty slow it also has Face Unlock so if you find that too slow or 00:04:44.880 --> 00:04:50.639 you just want to raise your phone and have a wake up and unlock you can do that but I'm more of a fan of the 00:04:49.199 --> 00:04:56.040 fingerprint scanner at least it's a little bit more secure sure the fingerprint scanner is slow but that 00:04:54.180 --> 00:04:59.960 doesn't matter we want to know how crab Rave does so let's pull that up here 00:05:05.759 --> 00:05:12.900 it's okay it's so audio quality wise like it sounds fine but the major 00:05:10.740 --> 00:05:15.960 downside and what's kind of odd it's only out of the bottom speaker so it 00:05:14.400 --> 00:05:20.160 doesn't use the earpiece speaker at all and it is very noticeable and sounds 00:05:18.300 --> 00:05:24.300 very odd only coming to the bottom of the phone sound quality is okay like it 00:05:23.100 --> 00:05:29.340 definitely sounds a little muddy and maybe it's because of that lack of Separation but I wouldn't say it's awful 00:05:27.360 --> 00:05:33.300 the phone doesn't get especially bright I turned it up to Max at brightness and 00:05:31.320 --> 00:05:36.419 it's not really that impressive I actually went in to turn it up more and 00:05:34.860 --> 00:05:39.960 realized that it was at the max we don't know the specific amount of knits this 00:05:38.220 --> 00:05:43.139 screen has and Labs isn't quite ready to be able to test that yet so stay tuned 00:05:41.699 --> 00:05:46.860 for future videos when we can do that but yeah it's not very good and I also 00:05:45.660 --> 00:05:50.699 think it might sound worse than my flip phone which in a thinner body shouldn't 00:05:49.020 --> 00:05:52.940 be the case but let's compare and find out 00:05:56.060 --> 00:06:02.460 yeah the Oppo fun and 2 flip sounds way better so it has the earpiece as one 00:06:00.840 --> 00:06:07.320 speaker and then the main chin speaker as the obviously main speaker and the 00:06:05.400 --> 00:06:11.820 brightness on this one is at half and it's brighter than the unit Hertz Luna 00:06:09.240 --> 00:06:14.820 at 100 so something to keep in mind and the brightness is a bigger deal because 00:06:12.960 --> 00:06:19.080 using it outside is gonna be a little bit rough so 00:06:17.160 --> 00:06:25.199 take it as you will another interesting thing about this phone is that it doesn't use Gorilla Glass it uses Panda 00:06:21.919 --> 00:06:26.940 mn228 glass to be specific which is just 00:06:25.199 --> 00:06:29.880 a cheaper alternative to Gorilla Glass so you'll still have some scratch and 00:06:28.440 --> 00:06:34.979 drop protection something to be aware of is it's not going to be quite as competitive to other phones that use 00:06:33.120 --> 00:06:38.120 Gorilla Glass like the pocophones or xiaomi phones we've read in the past 00:06:38.400 --> 00:06:43.259 so satisfying I do think the colors and everything do look good on this though 00:06:41.819 --> 00:06:46.740 like I don't think there's any major complaints on the actual quality of the 00:06:44.940 --> 00:06:50.759 screen and even the fact that it's the full HD Plus display it does look good 00:06:49.560 --> 00:06:55.380 it looks sharp enough I was actually pretty impressed with just how the trees and everything look at the intro for for 00:06:53.460 --> 00:07:00.600 crab Rave but yeah the brightness is a major bummer speaking of major bummer 00:06:57.720 --> 00:07:06.800 it's gaming time so I had Labs take a look to see how games perform on this 00:07:03.360 --> 00:07:10.620 phone it should be good in theory right 00:07:06.800 --> 00:07:12.419 well not so much so first of all we had 00:07:10.620 --> 00:07:16.620 to cut there for a second and it loaded for ever it took ages to get into the 00:07:15.120 --> 00:07:20.520 game and then when Labs actually went to do performance tests they were not 00:07:19.199 --> 00:07:23.940 impressed let's take a look at the settings because genshin impact will actually tell you what it expects 00:07:22.740 --> 00:07:29.220 performance to be like when you change the settings around all right so we have it opened uh this started on highest 00:07:27.300 --> 00:07:33.120 Graphics details and it says it's gonna be overclocked which makes sense let's 00:07:30.300 --> 00:07:36.660 try lowering it down to high okay medium overclocked is a little bit of a red 00:07:34.740 --> 00:07:42.780 flag because on the pocophones it was still able to run 60. on medium but 00:07:39.539 --> 00:07:44.819 let's try low okay lows 00:07:42.780 --> 00:07:49.979 dangerously close to the overclocked it's balanced but it is probably like 90 00:07:47.280 --> 00:07:56.160 full on that bar for performance wise so let's see lowest 50 full that's a smooth 00:07:52.919 --> 00:07:59.400 play but having to go lowest on a new 00:07:56.160 --> 00:08:01.560 phone in 2023 for against impact is a 00:07:59.400 --> 00:08:04.080 little almost embarrassing but you probably should be doing better someone 00:08:02.940 --> 00:08:11.520 Labs took a look at this they were playing on the highest graphical settings and they said it was getting 13 00:08:07.440 --> 00:08:12.360 FPS playing at that is a struggle and I 00:08:11.520 --> 00:08:18.539 don't think that's something you have to deal with when this can be played on like an iPhone 7. what's even worse this 00:08:15.960 --> 00:08:20.940 has a one percent low of three FPS so when this game is struggling you're 00:08:19.800 --> 00:08:26.160 loading a new area or anything like that it's gonna slow to an absolute crawl now 00:08:24.720 --> 00:08:31.259 I'm playing on lowest settings right now and it looks okay it is not smooth still 00:08:29.819 --> 00:08:38.039 let me make sure actually let me make sure this is low because this is actually not smooth 00:08:35.099 --> 00:08:41.820 again at highest or medium do not expect a smooth experience I've been saying 00:08:39.839 --> 00:08:46.740 what's even worse a lot but what's even worse than that is that this gets 00:08:44.339 --> 00:08:53.300 dangerously close to Thermal throttling so even though this is a huge body huge 00:08:50.820 --> 00:08:59.160 lots of space the temperature gets to 45.8 degrees where it has a limit of 47 00:08:56.700 --> 00:09:05.100 degrees the CPU and GPU in this got to 61 degrees and it has a thermal throttle 00:09:01.680 --> 00:09:08.580 limit of 63. again these are not 00:09:05.100 --> 00:09:10.620 impressive numbers so uh gaming big 00:09:08.580 --> 00:09:14.880 yikes don't try to go into a Cod mobile tournament with this but maybe the 00:09:12.959 --> 00:09:20.100 cameras will save this for cameras we do have a 108 megapixel Samsung sensor 00:09:17.880 --> 00:09:25.260 camera which is your main camera we have a 2 megapixel macro camera which is an 00:09:22.440 --> 00:09:29.820 omni Vision sensor and then we have a 20 megapixel night vision camera with a 00:09:28.260 --> 00:09:34.440 Sony sensor so that's pretty interesting not really anything I've ever seen before and I don't know when you would 00:09:33.060 --> 00:09:37.980 really want to use it but we'll try it out and see what it looks like and for the main camera right out of the box 00:09:36.660 --> 00:09:42.180 it's shooting at 12 megapixel so it's taking 108 megapixels bending down to 12 00:09:40.019 --> 00:09:45.839 like most of these crazy high megapixel count cameras do let's try to take a 00:09:44.279 --> 00:09:49.560 picture of that 108 megapixel resolution as well though taking a look at the 00:09:47.459 --> 00:09:54.240 photo right away I'm not super impressed it's kind of grainy uh it is challenging 00:09:52.500 --> 00:09:57.240 lighting like it's very dark everywhere except for where I'm sitting and the 00:09:56.160 --> 00:10:00.720 bright lights that are right ahead of me so it is something to consider but most 00:09:59.399 --> 00:10:04.320 of these cameras get tested in a pretty challenging environment and these aren't 00:10:02.399 --> 00:10:09.779 super sharp the colors don't look very good and it is fine if you need to send 00:10:07.620 --> 00:10:13.560 a quick picture of your grocery list to your partner but I wouldn't be like yeah 00:10:12.120 --> 00:10:16.560 I can't wait to show this let's take a look at the zoom though see if that Zoom 00:10:15.360 --> 00:10:22.260 photo looks all right you know actually this doesn't look bad for a 10 times digital Zoom obviously it's not going to 00:10:20.100 --> 00:10:26.279 look super sharp but whatever it is doing it doesn't look too painting like 00:10:24.060 --> 00:10:29.640 I can see Sven using this as team photo this actually looks quite a bit better 00:10:28.200 --> 00:10:33.600 even just the contrast from that big main light it's not completely blown out 00:10:31.680 --> 00:10:38.100 the background still has the darkness it's not super grainy things do look 00:10:36.060 --> 00:10:41.339 sharp this is more impressive and More in line with what I thought the photo 00:10:39.240 --> 00:10:44.100 would look like in that 12 megapixel photo just that you'd be able to zoom in 00:10:42.600 --> 00:10:47.339 farther even Andy far away in the background hidden behind cameras looks 00:10:45.660 --> 00:10:50.339 good and sharp yeah and the colors look good too on the the red in these numbers 00:10:48.839 --> 00:10:55.140 the colors look way better all right we're taking a video we're talking uh 00:10:52.380 --> 00:10:58.440 we're panning around see how the not Optical image stabilization does yeah 00:10:56.880 --> 00:11:02.820 you can definitely see every bit of wobble that I'm I'm creating but the 00:11:01.260 --> 00:11:06.300 exposure is you know doing pretty well and it's 00:11:04.279 --> 00:11:09.600 yeah the video is impressive I've actually found that a lot with these uh 00:11:07.680 --> 00:11:13.860 more affordable phones the video performance is usually pretty strong the 00:11:11.399 --> 00:11:17.880 mic is very clear it definitely gets the high tones of my voice instead of the 00:11:15.600 --> 00:11:20.040 lowness which is good and bad it was very easy to understand what I was 00:11:18.839 --> 00:11:22.920 saying but I wouldn't say it was true to it I actually sound like so one positive 00:11:21.959 --> 00:11:28.560 though it doesn't seem like there's any filters built in so you get to be yourself all right let's test out this 00:11:26.160 --> 00:11:32.519 macro camera we have our subject here and it says the best distance for macro 00:11:30.420 --> 00:11:36.079 photography is four centimeters here I'm not good at eyeballing 00:11:34.800 --> 00:11:39.660 distances it would be nice if it told you when you 00:11:38.640 --> 00:11:47.579 were close enough because like you have to look over the camera to see how far away you are it looks like a 2 megapixel 00:11:44.160 --> 00:11:50.100 photo the color is pretty inconsistent 00:11:47.579 --> 00:11:54.060 the dustpad turns pretty yellowy off to the right side that closest stripe is a 00:11:51.959 --> 00:11:59.040 lot more yellow than the back ones it doesn't feel sharp at any point on the 00:11:56.519 --> 00:12:03.000 tiger or the desk pad it feels like you've taken a picture of the flip phone 00:12:00.360 --> 00:12:06.240 from you know the the late odds let's try out the night mode though I'm not 00:12:04.320 --> 00:12:10.019 gonna pretend to be an infrared whiz I'm not the Camera Host that's David but 00:12:08.399 --> 00:12:13.440 infrared is used in a lot of security cameras gives you a clear image of what 00:12:11.519 --> 00:12:16.980 you're looking at in darkness but is black and white so obviously taking a 00:12:15.300 --> 00:12:20.040 picture while there's big lights on is going to be very bright but maybe we can 00:12:18.779 --> 00:12:25.260 turn the lights off and see what it looks like wow instant Darkness for my Clap the 00:12:24.060 --> 00:12:29.160 photo looks alright it's definitely missing a little bit of focus uh but you 00:12:27.600 --> 00:12:31.740 can see what's going on and that's pretty much what infrared is meant for 00:12:30.600 --> 00:12:35.760 is you can see what's going on but it's not gonna be the highest quality or anything like that so definitely neat 00:12:34.380 --> 00:12:39.959 but let's see if I can go over the WAN set where it's a bit darker try taking 00:12:37.380 --> 00:12:42.899 another photo and the infrared video it does look good so this bright light 00:12:41.519 --> 00:12:47.820 you're seeing in the top right is actually just the infrared from our 00:12:44.700 --> 00:12:50.279 security cameras but from here it is 00:12:47.820 --> 00:12:52.860 almost pitch black where I'm standing it looks pretty darn good you can 00:12:51.779 --> 00:12:57.720 definitely tell what's going on and obviously when we pan over here where it's more regular lighting you can see 00:12:55.500 --> 00:13:01.139 it's quite a bit brighter but again a little 00:12:58.620 --> 00:13:03.660 hard to get that Focus but not too bad the infrared video is obviously a lot 00:13:02.639 --> 00:13:08.639 more impressive when you're in somewhere a lot darker the footage does look pretty darn good really cool stuff 00:13:07.260 --> 00:13:14.579 oh it's because it's off to the side weird I don't take a lot of selfies I'm not used to the fact that you know it 00:13:11.940 --> 00:13:17.760 I'm looking straight ahead but it's off to the bit of an angle another 00:13:15.720 --> 00:13:22.380 interesting thing is the photos are very cool it's very very white it makes it 00:13:20.339 --> 00:13:26.459 seem like it's almost blue lighting or that I'm right in front of a window on a 00:13:24.300 --> 00:13:30.000 cloudy day but the photo is definitely sharp it's a 32 megapixel Samsung sensor 00:13:28.740 --> 00:13:33.600 so it does make sense that it does have that sharpness but yeah overall not bad 00:13:31.920 --> 00:13:37.980 the colors look all right sharpness is decent 00:13:35.339 --> 00:13:42.959 the film grain is tasteful in this kind of contrasty dark background it's 00:13:40.139 --> 00:13:47.040 nothing amazing but it'll do you a solid and for our video let's see how this 00:13:44.519 --> 00:13:50.100 sounds I'm gonna do a spin I look pretty Sharp 00:13:48.060 --> 00:13:52.620 I look pretty sharp which again is not necessarily a bad thing but it's 00:13:51.060 --> 00:13:57.899 something to be aware of depending on your stylings I am not a fan as somebody 00:13:54.660 --> 00:14:00.240 who has facial hair and Imperfections 00:13:57.899 --> 00:14:03.420 unbelievable I know but it just makes them really really noticeable I don't 00:14:02.040 --> 00:14:07.980 think it's bad again for a quick video call or something like that it's fine but I wouldn't make this like your main 00:14:06.240 --> 00:14:12.120 vlogging phone or the ticket talk or whatever they call it 00:14:09.240 --> 00:14:15.839 maybe not she might be like whoa a normal phone unboxing that's not what 00:14:14.040 --> 00:14:20.100 we're here for and you're right it's for these two unique features about this 00:14:17.459 --> 00:14:23.459 phone the programmable keys and the glyphs on the back what's interesting is 00:14:21.959 --> 00:14:28.260 that with the glyphs you can't use them in the camera so the nothing phone will actually let you light up the glyphs to 00:14:26.519 --> 00:14:33.120 light up the subject while you're taking a picture this one doesn't have the option it's just flash so let's go into 00:14:30.959 --> 00:14:37.260 settings and see what you can do so in the settings here you can see there's one for LED lights so you can turn it on 00:14:36.180 --> 00:14:41.160 and off you can change the brightness what ringtone and notification sounds 00:14:39.240 --> 00:14:45.720 and always on I don't know why you'd want your LEDs always on like it's in 00:14:43.320 --> 00:14:48.899 your pocket and just on but I guess you could do that if you'd really like so 00:14:47.160 --> 00:14:53.279 for showing y'all what it looks like let's have it always on I swear it's not 00:14:51.420 --> 00:14:57.420 just a nasty yellow these are actually full RGB compared to nothing phones just 00:14:55.620 --> 00:15:01.139 white LEDs so it's pretty interesting to be able to change it this default color 00:14:59.279 --> 00:15:04.860 looks like it's not on purpose and is gross though so let's change it up okay 00:15:02.699 --> 00:15:08.279 I it turned off and on by accident I turned it back on it's a different color 00:15:05.940 --> 00:15:12.300 that's even grosser the color is changing and it's getting worse somehow 00:15:10.500 --> 00:15:16.980 you won't be able to tell on camera but in person you can count each LED easily 00:15:15.420 --> 00:15:20.760 through the back it's not diffused enough to give it just that fade through 00:15:18.959 --> 00:15:23.639 it looks straight up bad it also keeps turning off randomly even though always 00:15:22.199 --> 00:15:27.180 on is on and when you change your brightness in the settings uh nothing 00:15:25.320 --> 00:15:30.540 happens that's cool oh it just turned off always on by itself that's really 00:15:28.860 --> 00:15:36.120 neat and then there's different patterns let's see these are just colors not 00:15:33.779 --> 00:15:39.180 patterns and again it looks gross on camera and it looks grosser in person I 00:15:37.860 --> 00:15:44.160 think this is supposed to be a solid color and you can see some LEDs are 00:15:41.820 --> 00:15:48.180 brighter than others or slightly different Hues than other ones in it 00:15:45.899 --> 00:15:52.500 it's like purpley blue down here to purpley pink up here and there's just 00:15:50.220 --> 00:15:57.120 individual dots that are mishmashed colors of the multiple it's trying to 00:15:54.720 --> 00:15:59.820 show yeah stinky that's what this consensus is behind the camera let's see 00:15:58.860 --> 00:16:05.040 if it does something cool with notifications it sure doesn't so it actually gives you 00:16:03.720 --> 00:16:08.579 the option to switch through these different tones but it's not 00:16:07.199 --> 00:16:13.019 doing anything I'm just gonna try turning off always on 00:16:10.500 --> 00:16:16.699 no it sure does nothing wow that's so cool 00:16:13.980 --> 00:16:22.620 oh that one did it also was not in sync with the music 00:16:19.579 --> 00:16:25.860 oh no 00:16:22.620 --> 00:16:28.980 oh there you go this sucks it's not in 00:16:25.860 --> 00:16:31.079 sync at all and it's showing glyphs for 00:16:28.980 --> 00:16:34.680 all of these but it's not showing up on oh yeah it's not showing up all the time 00:16:33.480 --> 00:16:39.839 and it's not showing up for all the patterns this one did show it once and 00:16:36.600 --> 00:16:42.420 now it's oh barely showing it come on 00:16:39.839 --> 00:16:45.959 man also has an ambient light feature where other LED features will be 00:16:43.860 --> 00:16:50.519 disabled that's all it tells you there's no other explanation who knows but I 00:16:48.480 --> 00:16:54.959 have the original here the nothing phone so let's check out what I would say a 00:16:52.380 --> 00:16:58.620 solid implementation looks like so for D Swan there actually are surprisingly a 00:16:56.820 --> 00:17:01.920 little less options this one only has one color so you do get the brightness 00:17:00.240 --> 00:17:05.459 changing but you can't change the pattern necessarily it's all just 00:17:03.660 --> 00:17:09.240 changing the ringtone and the glyphs are assigned to a certain ringtone so oh 00:17:07.380 --> 00:17:12.959 there's nothing machines two now there was only 10 sounds they've added 11 more 00:17:11.280 --> 00:17:16.140 so we're gonna use those because I don't know what they are so you see these are 00:17:14.339 --> 00:17:19.559 much more Dynamic a little bit more eye-catching and they have the tactics 00:17:18.299 --> 00:17:25.260 to go along with it so you can really feel the phone vibrating which I enjoy and it actually works first try the 00:17:23.280 --> 00:17:28.980 nothing phone also lets you use the glyphs as a fill light instead of using 00:17:27.299 --> 00:17:32.940 flash which like I said earlier you cannot do on the other phone so now when 00:17:31.559 --> 00:17:37.320 you're taking a picture you'll use this to light up your subject get them looking at your phone because it's so 00:17:35.580 --> 00:17:41.039 cool and fancy take the picture and move on a battery charging speed for this 00:17:39.360 --> 00:17:46.020 thing sucks we've been running out of battery consistently through this shoot 00:17:42.620 --> 00:17:47.280 and it takes ages to charge barely a 00:17:46.020 --> 00:17:51.900 couple percent for the few minutes we've been trying to charge it between and that's with like a fast charger meant 00:17:50.580 --> 00:17:55.260 for a much larger device not the apparent 18 watt fast charging that it 00:17:53.940 --> 00:17:59.580 does which we only found on a different website because there's not a whole lot of specs for this in the main one and 00:17:58.020 --> 00:18:04.380 there's no wireless charging so you're not gonna be able to put it on your desk and have it be charging while you're 00:18:01.980 --> 00:18:08.940 doing other things it sucks to not have I'm using the Oppo n it doesn't have 00:18:06.840 --> 00:18:11.940 wireless charging and it blows can't charge it in my car can't just like have 00:18:10.679 --> 00:18:16.500 it on my desk sitting there charging when it's this thick it should have 00:18:14.580 --> 00:18:20.220 wireless charging on the back here it looks like it hasn't I went and tried it 00:18:18.240 --> 00:18:26.039 on a wireless charging pad and it didn't work so disappointing but back to these 00:18:23.940 --> 00:18:29.820 hotkeys so to change settings for the programmable Keys we just go into the 00:18:27.720 --> 00:18:33.000 intelligent assistance menu and then down to shortcut settings I've got to 00:18:31.679 --> 00:18:35.940 briefly touch on it earlier there are a couple different ones freezer is like 00:18:34.679 --> 00:18:39.860 hiding different apps I don't know why they call the freezer scan is QR code 00:18:37.679 --> 00:18:43.740 stuff and the other stuff is pretty self-explanatory Funk one and funk 2. I 00:18:42.900 --> 00:18:48.360 don't know why they wouldn't just say function they have a lot of space here but hey Funk is cool and then here we 00:18:47.280 --> 00:18:53.039 have the different options there's a push to talk which is cool you can have it set up to like a walkie-talkie or 00:18:51.660 --> 00:18:57.600 call ups and push it and immediately contact somebody the programmable key so 00:18:55.620 --> 00:19:00.720 you can have it be a media key or symbol key that's probably what I would use it 00:18:58.980 --> 00:19:04.020 for I find that super helpful I'm always listening to music on my phone to be 00:19:02.160 --> 00:19:07.679 able to reach down push this start playing music double click to skip the 00:19:05.820 --> 00:19:13.700 song very helpful or you can set it to open up a certain app so let's try 00:19:10.280 --> 00:19:16.260 screenshot and long press will be 00:19:13.700 --> 00:19:20.460 flashlight interesting that flashlight's not available for short press only long 00:19:18.480 --> 00:19:24.299 and then double press we're gonna do well I'm a gamer so we're gonna have an 00:19:22.200 --> 00:19:28.260 open attention impact that's super handy I had pretty low expectations but I 00:19:26.520 --> 00:19:32.640 think having those options is great and this phone costs 300 on pre-order or 330 00:19:31.320 --> 00:19:38.039 dollars when it's actually launched which is Affordable but there's also a 00:19:36.059 --> 00:19:41.760 ton of competition at that price for example the Poco X5 Pro we've covered 00:19:40.380 --> 00:19:46.799 pocophones here before you can watch those videos and those are pretty darn 00:19:43.980 --> 00:19:50.280 solid at very accessible prices and by the time we're filming this I don't know 00:19:48.000 --> 00:19:57.539 if it still is the pixel 6A is on sale for 300 that phone rocks that beats this 00:19:53.880 --> 00:19:59.760 in literally every single way so for 300 00:19:57.539 --> 00:20:04.020 should you buy a phone that has a cool feature that nothing phone has but worse 00:20:02.160 --> 00:20:09.720 I'll let you decide this isn't a review but would I buy it absolutely not as 00:20:07.200 --> 00:20:14.520 Labs wrote in their notes this is a hard do not buy thank you so much for 00:20:11.940 --> 00:20:19.260 watching this rage inducing video why not check out our video on the nothing 00:20:15.720 --> 00:20:22.580 phone it isn't a fantastic phone but 00:20:19.260 --> 00:20:22.580 it's definitely better than this
