Here's some things that both baffle and irritate me about most of these self-proclaimed "tech experts" on YouTube.
Okay, so years ago, back in 2007, Apple introduced the aluminum iMac computer. Almost immediately, nearly EVERY SINGLE "tech journalist" (I use the term loosely) began parroting about it's "brushed aluminum finish"; erm, no guys, that's BEAD BLASTED aluminum - were it *brushed* it would look like it been, ya know, BRUSHED, ya know, with LINES and streaks like a BRUSH had been taken to the aluminum.
Now, in the age of the smartphone, this ignorance of BASIC information about mass-produced consumer technology, is propagating yet again amongst the technically illiterate - the youngsters of the "Tech channel" types, who fall over themselves in a blind panic to be "FIRST!!!!!!" to release a "review" of the latest device to YouTube (although, how one is able to form a well-rounded, carefully considered, well written and intelligently conveyed "review" with less than 24-48 hours of use under their belt, baffles me no end)... okay, so what NEARLY EVERY SINGLE ONE of these "reviewers" get wrong is something so incredibly DUMB, it blows one's mind as to how this has become common YouTube technology parlance:
When referring to device battery capacity, I defy you to find more than TWO of these countless thousands of copycat "reviewers" who refer to battery capacity using the correct terminology - "milliamp HOURS", and not the mass-adopted "milliamps". Go on, go and watch 30 smartphone review videos, and 29 of these will incorrectly say "It's got a 3,000 milliamp battery"
Wow... what the? It's one extra word, and missing that one extra word off, makes you come across as technically unqualified for the job you appointed yourself, as a "reviewer".
How do people become so oblivious to the fact that some percentage of their audience ARE going to spot these glaring errors in understanding, and discount their opinions on said product, because if you can't be bothered to get basic info right, why would we listen to you?
Okay that's all. 😁
