I tested Apple’s $130 IPhone Duo case.. dbrand
What does an official case leave uncovered? In CarterPCs' iPhone Duo test, the answer is either the sides or the folding hinge, depending on which Apple case he puts on.
In "I tested Apple's $130 IPhone Duo case.. dbrand", Carter unpacks the folio, checks its coverage and demonstrates how easily it comes away during a drop. The other Apple case covers the sides but leaves the hinge exposed. "Apple, what are we doing, man?" he asks. The comparison also features dbrand's Grip case and its elastic-polymer hinge mechanism.
That was the most watched of the week's new uploads, approaching nine million views. The comments take a detour into whether his criticism might cost him another Apple-event invitation, while others focus on exposed edges and the casual dropping of a phone he had been waiting for.
Carter posted thirty videos across the week. The Duo dominated the biggest new audiences: JerryRigEverything's durability test, the screen crease and comparisons with Samsung's Z Fold 8 all featured. His touchscreen MacBook Pro outing drew another substantial audience, broadening the Apple conversation beyond folding phones.
The channel collected roughly 320 million views and added subscribers, though its weekly subscriber gain was smaller than the previous month's weekly average. Daily viewing is currently above its usual level. Among nearby gadget channels, Dave2D and The Verge are also seeing elevated daily viewing, while JayzTwoCents and Techquickie are quieter than usual.
Carter's freshest momentum has shifted to "Every Apple product is an IPad now..", followed by a MacBook Neo price discussion and a question about someone keeping the same AirPods for a decade.
