iOS 27.0.1, a Face ID fix and a slower Siri for Brandon Butch

His small-update rundown drew about 170,000 views on its first day, and his eight-day-old iPhone 18 Pro setup guide is still the video people reach for.

iOS 27.0.1 Released - What's New?

A usual day for Brandon Butch brings his channel somewhere around 235,000 views. This week ran a little lighter, closer to 190,000 a day, with just two new uploads. For a channel built on Apple's release calendar, that is what the stretch after a launch tends to look like: the new phone is out, and the first point release is the only news.

That point release is the week's busiest upload. "iOS 27.0.1 Released - What's New?" walks through what the description calls a small but necessary update: a Face ID bug fix, a repaired camera, security patches and a look ahead to iOS 27.2. Its chapter list also promises a viral bug and a warning not to believe everything you see. The comments wandered off the script, as update comments do. Many viewers want Apple to speed up the new Siri, some mention its trouble over car Bluetooth, and a well-liked note admits that his upload notifications are how they find out an update exists at all.

The other new video, "iPhone 18 Pro vs 17 Pro After 1 Week - You've Been Misled!", argues that most people have the comparison wrong, with battery life billed as the massive difference and the camera as the place where everyone is mistaken.

The video doing the most work right now is neither of them. "iPhone 18 Pro - First 24 Things To Do! (Tips & Tricks)", a 36-minute setup guide from launch week, is drawing roughly three times the daily views of either new upload. Among tech channels of a similar size, Parker Burton and Insert Richie are having the big weeks, while Brandon Butch and Techmoan sit among the quieter ones.
