1. Watch the show in short clips here – https://youtube.com/laterclips

2. Should start a petition to drop the R in FebRuary.
   Join the movement! Let's start calling it Febuary!!

3. Isn’t this kinda skewed considering corona out of control in ???

4. i wish i could update MORE! i got the note 10+ on launch and i already wanna upgrade to the s20 Ultra

5. Maybe most people don’t want to spend $1000+ on a phone. Doesn’t help Apple messed up the anti glare coating on the 11pro camera when the camera is the biggest feature.

6. The issue is smartphones are not as good as a desktop in anything productivity and i dont see any way touch screen will ever match a keyboard and mouse in fine control(i wont get into the fact that even trackpads on laptops have no good solution to scrolling comparing to scroll wheel on mouse) as people realize this fact that a handheld device will always be below the productivity level of a desktop computer. they start thinking i want the latest and greatest phone but if it will never have the fine control of a keyboard and mouse and will never have a mobile version of Adobe premier to match desktop windows pc because the inputs. why ever pay a grand for a device with more horsepower than will ever be used that no pro would actually want to edit a video with it. With all that said things like Samsung dex or desktop docking modes witch lets you use a bigger screen keyboard and mouse may be the only good way to make a handheld device that makes sense to spend more than a grand on moving forward!

7. Apple and Samsung could really start moving some serious units again if they release the best $200-300 phone they could possibly release. They come out with a great phone in that price range they'll be looking at some good profits. Of course I mean great for that price range, I'm not saying they should release their flagships for that price.

8. I'm watching this while opening my new S20

9. When the people are being taken to the cleaners with insane pricing it's not surprising.. after looking at the bad quality of the s20 cameras, it definitely a marketing gimmick…

10. Maybe when their affordable they will sell.

11. After my Note 9 ended up with Note 10 programming after it's last big update, now don't have a reason to get a new phone. My phone's even better now.

12. The more money they charge, the more they are forcing people to lock in to their phone choices. I think at a certain point the increasing retention time makes it less profitable for the smart phone manufacturers.

13. I just went from a OnePlus5T to a 7T. Loving it. Other phones and brands are just too much money!

14. Man I love this show. It's become the one I look forward to every day. I kinda miss it when there isn't a new one.

15. because WE NEED MONEY! – Dutch van der Linde

16. I'm happy with my phone, helping the environment, also I don't have the money to keep spending over thousands bucks, prices are getting ridiculous expensive.

17. Well I just upgraded to the s20+ from my a5 2017

18. No worries you guys are very very very informative and very very very entertaining relax

19. I love you,you really have that guy in the world energy on lockdown

20. Because people can't afford to buy them every year anymore

21. Lol i have a iphone 10, and sprint keeps callin to have me upgrade but im tryna wait til the 12 pro

22. This year I upgraded from a galaxy note 3 to a……. s9+.
    There's no point to buy a brand new phone when there aren't any new and important features

23. Good, its about time we don't need a new phone every three months

24. Timestamps?

25. What kind of dog is Otis? I’m too broke for a new phone but I’d spend some cash on a cute puppo

26. Those are just Powerbeats Pro with wires

27. Bruh when I heard you guys say there's a new Powerbeats coming out my heart was in my mouth. I just bought the Powerbeats Pro. Slyly glad the Powerbeats Pro are true wireless.

28. Used to get a phone every 2 years… I am currently on a s8. Wanted the note 10, didnt seem good enough. Waiting to see the Note20…

29. Too expensive and not much upgrade.. Coming from a guy that usually upgrade every year. I haven’t upgrade in 2 yrs now..

30. The prices are completely insane that's why look at that S20 Ultra??‍♂️?

31. I downgraded my phone to a more less powerful phone but my cellular carrior still charged an upgrading fee. I downgraded ffs : /
