My personal iPhone Duo breakdown

What if an iPhone that opens into something like an iPad mini simply doesn't grab you? Rene Ritchie's description for “My personal iPhone Duo breakdown” starts there: he was surprised by his own lack of interest, before adding a pointed “But”.

That September upload is drawing the most daily views among his active videos, with about 84,000 views overall. No new uploads arrived this week, so it shares the shelf with “iPhone 17 now or wait for iPhone 18?” and “M6 and M5 Ultra Hot Takes”. The latter ranges beyond chip performance into Apple's AI language, product lineup and pricing, familiar territory for a channel concerned with what technology means in everyday life.

Subscribers stayed unchanged, while today's viewing pace is roughly half the usual level. Nearby gadget channels have had busier weeks: Tech.Explain added subscribers and millions of views, while Canoopsy's subscriber count also held steady. For Ritchie's readers, the active selection offers three distinct Apple questions: whether to want a new form factor, when to upgrade, and what to make of another generation of silicon.
