Here is an alternative Piped link(s): https://piped.video/watch?v=atCjacOWPjU

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

I'm open-source, check me out at GitHub.

Cringe every single time I see him destroy a new phone. I know the testing serves a purpose but I hate seeing it.

He's definitely way more destructive than needed but I do think the videos give a rough idea of how well built or hard to get into a device is.

I do think ruining a brand new device for views is kind of disgusting though I presume the videos cover the cost but still it's a waste.

I argue the opposite. Cars are rigorously tested for safety and durability. Phones are such a mandatory tool for us that durability information and repairability metrics are extremely important considerations when making such a vital purchase.

A dumb test, especially on a foldable.
