Brandon Butch's release-candidate walkthrough had reached roughly 67,000 views in eight hours, a quick follow-up to an Apple Weekly episode with rather more than software on its menu.

The week's most-watched new upload, "iOS 27.2 - This is Unreal!", starts with Music icon tweaks, a removed Health redesign and customizable Suggested Actions in Messages. Brandon calls the beta "probably the worst beta of all time." By the release-candidate video, the revamped Health app is back among the changes he examines, alongside performance, battery life and the possible battery effects of Siri indexing. It's a week where the follow-up matters.

Apple Music supplies a particularly clear talking point in the comments: viewers question the new look and ask for the previous version back. Elsewhere, people discuss their iPhone Duo orders and whether HomeView might eventually get an App Store. Those conversations fit the broader Weekly episode, which moves from preorder shipping delays to Brandon's impressions of Apple's smart-home hardware.

Across the channel, the week brought just over a million views, while subscribers held steady. Daily viewing is now about half again as high as usual. Among nearby gadget channels, Insert Richie had a substantial viewing week; Techmoan was quieter, with its subscriber count also unchanged.

The release-candidate walkthrough is currently Brandon's fastest-moving upload. His older "iPhone 18 Pro - First 24 Things To Do! (Tips & Tricks)" remains active too, giving camera settings, charging and everyday customization a place alongside the software-update news.

I’m interested in a couple wall mounted homeviews. I hope they add an App Store in future updates. It’s always OS 3-4 when Apple products start to shine
