Thanks for watching! Definitely stay till the end on this one, I don't think you'll regret it 😉 For the other Smartphone fails videos: ukposts.info/have/v-deo/l6SiaIaZZ4Vzunk.html

Sony is naming their phones just like how i name my files on photoshop

Definitely a Netflix quality clip at the end😂😂

Arun in 2020: Serious, low pitch Arun in 2022: more comedic, high pitch But great quality of explanation never changed

Sony naming a device: _slams head on keyboard_ *Perfection.*

plot twist: nokia didn't die, they switch to producing armor for the military

Lew: Apple doesn’t send me their products Arun:Sony doesn’t send me their products Mkbhd: Escobar is after me

I had 2 windows phones from 2016 to 2019 ( my sister had one too) they worked great and they were very affordable, but the app problem was only getting worse even after the windows 10 update which took the phone to an extra level to be honest. One small example of the app issues is that the Facebook messenger didn't allow calls (audio or video), after the update there was an unclickable call button that kept disappearing. After 2019 I completely lost faith in it all together and bought myself a Nokia 2.2 The Windows phone that I had was Microsoft Lumia 535 which was the first phone produced after the Nokia buyout.

Loved my Nextbit Robin. Early adopter of USB C, the apps-to-cloud thing wasn't a problem at all, people loved how it looked. The kicker was the ease of fix - a screen change was less than 10 mins work

I can't wait for the sony 1 II 3 IV 5 2

"A Finnish company to a finished company" You have achieved comedy

I've watched your videos so much last year and this year too that some of your videos became a bit nostalgic for me. Such amazing videos!

I love this series. Going back to take another look at devices and their development in time is really fascinating. Even more when you grow up at these times, witnessing pagers became popular and all of a sudden there were the first cellphones and internet became a thing for private households. There was so much going on. Also big companies had to find their spot within that new market. Some saw the possibilities and skyrocketed, others failed to make a step and are only history by today. Imho Microsoft & Nokia were representatives of the last group (on the smartphone sector) and their fortune was related to each other. As you said, it was a pain watching Nokia going down. One of my most favourite cellphone from the early era of smartphones still is the Nokia N97 (Symbian OS). Unfortunately the pain didn't stop there. To me the climax was when they realized their strategy wasn't working and Microsoft bought Nokias mobile branch- denying Nokia to build devices on their own again for several years.

“Went from a finnish company to an finished company”🤣🤣🤣 I think this is the first time I’ve audibly laughed at a smartphone video

Imagine having a PhoneBloks and you're at your friends house, and suddenly you're like "where is my cpu?"

I remember getting excited when I first read about the modular smartphone. I'm still waiting for it to become a thing. Unfortunately, it'd only apply to a handful of people, because people would much rather just buy hardware off the shelf, than picking each and every component individually. Also, it'd be highly reparable, which Apple and Samsung, the two giants, would definitely not want to be succed. Like, why would you let ANYTHING people can repair themselves to succeed when your products are designed to only be repaired in certified stores.

I used the Kin for years and loved every second of it back in the day! I really liked it, super fun and unique phone for the time.

"You can't release a phone with the same design every year" Apple : Why NOt?

I love how he even puts a timer on the top, in case someone wants to skip ahead. His videos are one of the most thought out and well-edited videos I've seen. He's very straightforward with everything too, clear and precise.

You're probably the only tech reviewer where I watch the whole video... Well done!

That Xperia skit at the end was great. It made my day! If I recall correctly, my last Nokia before getting my first smartphone was Nokia 6020 which I think I was using at least around 2006 or 2007. I don't remember when exactly I finally left it to dust and got a smartphone but I believe my first smartphone may have been Samsung Galaxy Ace that got released in 2011 so it's possible I was using that old Nokia phone until then. I personally don't like switching to a new phone every year or even every second year because if the phone still works and apps are running then I don't see a problem. I believe my current phone, which I bought in fall 2021, is probably my third or fourth smartphone.

I was not expecting the netflix hit series "phones" to make a cameo

Escobar phone should be given 10/10 for fraud scheme.

I just found your channel today and I’ve watched a good few of your videos so far by the way yes I have subscribed 😂 but I must say I’m surprised that I have not seen you do a review on the Aquos phone i’ve been expecting to see what you think of it and what do you think of the camera on the bottom of the phone lol

Ah, Nokia... I'm an old-fashioned person so I've been using good old "dumb" phones even after smartphones became fairly common (not as widespreads as they are now, but still common). All my phones were Nokias - I loved the brand. When the time came to finally upgrade to a smartphone, I really wanted to stick with Nokia but couldn't because they were exclusively Windows phones. That made me sad. Huge missed opportunity.

My Friend: What's you favorite TV Show? Me: Phones

I love how this guy doesn't clickbait, He just gets straight to the point and gives you the content you came for. We need more people like him.

16:58 lmaooo xDDDDDD Video quality is informative and really humorous and entertaining at the same time that's why I love ur videos and binge watch it almost all day daily! XD

Mahns energy was so different.. You wer so chilled and relaxed and dialed back.. Now your videos have a vibe and they have energy.. The way you talk...

Nokia: "From a Finnish company to a finished company" 😂😂

Escobar- *we are a sticker company*

I have to say, I had the Kin and absolutely loved it. It wasn't a comparison to a smartphone for me, but am upgrade from t9, and it was fantastic. The sliding click to close it and hang up a call was so satisfying

“It’s the 1 + ii in the end” “So it’s a 3” “It’s complicated” I’m dead 💀 😂

“people still bought it obviously, it’s an iPhone.” - Modern thinking.

the Xperia z1 compact was actually my first ever smartphone and I have to say, I loved it a lot. that was the time when phones seriously tried to top each other with being waterproof and the sony had caps over all of the openings

I miss my sidekick, The phone I had between my Nokia and my 1st smartphone. I miss physical keyboards so much!!

"Starting off bad, but ending terribly" Just like my relationships

“Thanks to Sony for sponsoring this video, JOKE.” -Arun Savage. 😂

I remember one of my first smartphones was a Windows Phone, and honestly I loved the interface design, it was really cool. And I loved the Xbox integration, being able to easily view all my stats and such, and see who's online, it was really fun.

Spot on with your comments on OnePlus at 18:50 Excellent company to deal with directly. They answer the phone at Customer Service and do what they have to in order to make you happy. The OnePlus 8 is my latest acquisition, obtained at a jaw dropping discount as it is "last year's model" T Mobile refused to activate it as it was not sold by them. ONE+ fixed me up with an unlocked version and took back the locked version - at no cost to me. (I dropped tmobile for this reason alone) PS : expect 2 to 3 hours on hold for tmobile but 3 to 3 minutes on hold for ONE+.

"Sony released an Identical looking phone" Apple: 😐

P•h•o•n•e•s is now my favorite Netflix show

These are my favorite videos. They can be endless and just perfect to watch and enjoy

Rewatching this series. These were very fun videos!

"imagine this scanerio" *Netflix intro* "Starring Aru-" *Seemless transition to ad*

Elon musk got inspired by sony for naming his son

Thank you for making the aspect ratio on the video so wide. I have a new samsung phone so this is nice

loved that friends reference! masterpiece!

When I saw that Netflix logo, I thought it was an ad 😂😂😂😂

Sony: time to name a new phone Sony: _pulls out an ouija board_

Arun: you can't just release an identical-looking phone every year. Apple: you think I care

For sony: They also had problems with build quality and reliability. I had to send in my Z3 3 times for repairs in one year because there alwas was something that broke down on this thing. Also the hardware configuration was a bit questionable. 16GB for a flagship phone in 2014 was a bit lacking, even tho it had expandable storage. The camera was actually quite good but with some drawbacks. No manual focus and constant overheating while recording videos

UKposts is getting real comfy with these 15 second unskippable ads

Whenever your logo appears I think it's Motorola logo.

I had an Xperia Play, and it was hella fun back when it was new :D Miss these times a bit, thinking of getting one agajn just for nostalgia reasons

I love the fails vids keep it up🎉

“People obviously bought it, its an iphone” No truer words can be spoken

"A Finnish company to a finished company" -Arun, 2020

Oh Good Sir-, I must commend you here for the immaculate dialog within the insertion of your short "Friends'" parody. Honestly Bravo'. Lol 😊👌⚘🖤

U make really good videos mate

I literally moved my mouse to skip the Netflix Ad that I thought

I still can't stop laughing about the netflix cameo

I got a Sony Xperia T2 in 2014... and it's still working. That phone has been so loyal, not longer my main phone, but still fine for some games.

dude the Netbit Robin was one of my favorite phones!

I got a ps5 ad right in the middle of that Sony part, almost like sony was trynna distract me or something

Been watching you for a few years now and I must say, amazingly phenomenal work bro❤ love every little bit of your videos and how much effort you put in to make your content seem effortless . So thank you for that I do also want to say that a lot of the reasons you use as to rate a company and it’s fails, is that “they weren’t ready for so and so yet”, and I agree with that in literally every video you say it. But then I thought about it, and I believe it because it’s the one reason you can use in almost every fail video that will always make sense😂 even if that isn’t the reason you use, if you’d have chosen that same reason then it will have still made sense😂 so yeah, just thought I’d share my thoughts even tho you probably won’t ever take notice or read a comment from someone like me but nonetheless, thank you for the level of content you’ve given us ❤

"You can't release a phone with the same design every year" *Apple has left the chat*

The green iPhone 5C is my favorite smartphone I ever owned, I freaking lolved that thing, used it up to 2016 and only replaced it cause it fell on asphalt without a case and shattered the screen. I loved the size, the finish and the look. Now I own an iPhone 13 mini which I also love and will probably be on a list like this soon. It's a shame people don't dig compact phones.

My first smartphone was a Nokia Lumia running the Windows system. I absolutely loved it.

Love how he just gets straight into the video, without even a single introduction

THE WORD PLAY ON NOKIA.... “how do you go from a Finnish company to a finished company”

I absolutely loved the friends transaction!!!🤣🤣😂😂❤️❤️

Omg you look so young!!!!!!!!!!! But one upgrade from 2020 to 2022 is: you stopped your depressing voice and started making jokes…I JUST LOVE IT NOW, YOU’RE THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!

No one: Arun: "......a continuous lapse of judgment" *chuckles *sad logan paul noises

The actually laughable quote I read from Sony spokesperson about their smartphone cameras was that their Smartphone department does not have the authority to work with their Camera department directly 🤣😂🤪

I actually came up with that idea of a modular phone as well. It works well in my head

😂😂😂😂 Broooo you had me at the end!! I was in shock when you said "Sponsored by Sony"!!! 💀

I'm sure Arun is still wearing his short 🤣🤣🤣

Me: “If Sony’s Xperia is so good then why isn’t there a Xperia 2?” Sony: “The new ‘Sony Xperia 1....2’ ”

Just love your videos

Still rocking my Sony Xperia 5. Turned 4y old and still getting an easy day of battery life. Still feels snappy and it is a strong phone. Dropped it 100s of times and still no cracks in the screen.

i love how arun is stepping up the game in humour!

I'd still be using windows phone if it had apps tbh, but there was one thing I'll never forgive it for... The BING button 😡😩

I love that modular phone idea... I seem to remember Google being into that, and something most colorful and organic in shape... But maybe i dreamt...

I remember having a Sony experia xa1 and it was quite a good phone, but it is very confusing trying to keep up with which models are actually after it

"Finnish company to finished company" good one

I think people misunderstand the 5c. I had one and it worked wonderful for years. Pristine condition, thankfully no cracks even when it should have. It had headphone jack which you rarely see nowadays, it was pretty damn fast. It still holds up now.

I loved my old Windows phone. I had a Nokia Lumia 820 for a couple years. Was a unique and easy to use phone. Lack of proper apps was indeed it's let down.

15:50 "You will never guss the next one" Thats was great impression🤣🤣🤣

And now we got the Xperia Pro, it’s 2021 lol

Love the „Friends“ reference

Lmao that sony sponsor joke at the end was hilarious. You totally threw me off

"Finnish company to Finished company" 😂😂 Killed it.

Xperia Play: I'm limited by the technology of my time

4:25 Gonna have to correct You on that one. Nokia nGage was the first true gaming smartphone. Not an Android phone, but as much of a gaming phone as any gaming phone ever. Cheers

I had the OG Nokia Windows Phone. The Lumia 800 was such a good little phone absolutely crippled by the lack of apps. I mean the thing was a proper indestructible Nokia with a great camera for the time but if you don’t have any of the apps your friends use it’s quite frustrating.

Arun: "By 2017, Sony's was looking unbelievably outdated." Me: (realized watching this using that xz phone)"oh god now I can't unsee those bezel!"

Sony did mess up, but they are still around, I think at first place should have been HTC

I ve got sony premium for two years .Love retro design an camera is actually superb if you know somenthing about using it .Besels do not bother me too much .And I love it

I had an Xperia play back in the day (still have it!) and I loved it. Really good for PS1 emulators and GBA emulators
