Touchscreens and trim choices on GadgetsBoy's shopping list
Five uploads put an OLED iPad mini, a hands-on MacBook session and two electric-car buying decisions in focus.
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.
New iPad Mini OLED
What is worth paying extra for? GadgetsBoy keeps returning to that practical question across a week split between Apple screens and electric cars.
"Touchscreen MacBook Pro Hands-On: Is It Worth £900 More?" takes a couple of hours with the laptop beyond the obvious novelty of touching the display. The description sets out checks on screen wobble, standard versus nano-texture glass, and whether touch earns its place in video editing, photography and 3D modelling. It is currently the channel's busiest video, after a relatively modest opening day.
The car reviews ask a similar question with much larger purchases. For "Hyundai IONIQ 3 Review UK Drive: Which One Should You Actually Buy?", GadgetsBoy drove a fully optioned N Line Evo while weighing it against the cheaper entry version. "New BMW i3 Review: Who Should Actually Buy One?" shifts to the electric 3 Series, comparing two battery-and-power options and deciding which trim makes sense on UK roads.
The most-watched new upload, though, was "New iPad Mini OLED", with about 4,000 views. In the brief video, the presenter describes reports of an OLED screen, holds two minis side by side and brings in a folding phone to ask whether a small tablet is the upgrade viewers would choose. Its framing is a preview of reported plans, rather than a hands-on demonstration of the described OLED model.
Subscribers held steady at 168,000. Daily viewing is currently around half its usual level, while nearby tech channels cmcteq and ZTT Extras had much larger weekly audiences. Within GadgetsBoy's own library, the MacBook hands-on and fresh BMW review are doing the most work right now: two different ways of asking whether the upgrade justifies the bill.
