A day-old store experiment is drawing views about three times faster than the four-day-old TV video that still holds the week's biggest total.

Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.

Walmart's Cheap TV Comes with a Hidden Cost

Barely a day old, "I Bought from Target "Refurbished"" is already the busiest thing on Austin Evans' channel, and it opened faster than anything else he posted. The quotation marks around "Refurbished" do a lot of work in that title.

It shares the top with another big-box story. "Walmart's Cheap TV Comes with a Hidden Cost" went up on Thursday and has gathered the most views of the week, past six hundred thousand, though its daily pace has eased to roughly half of where it began. Seven videos went up in all. The AirPods 5 review, posted the same day as the Target video, is off to a steady start. The midweek trio about Meta's glasses and a Lucid Gravity has settled into a much quieter rhythm.

The channel as a whole is moving at exactly its usual pace. Among tech review channels, Austin Evans sits sixth by subscribers. Phone Repair Guru and Kyle Krueger are drawing millions of views a day, while iJustine and TechZone are having calmer stretches. Here, the retail experiments are clearly the ones people are clicking.
