I knew about the folding phone category because I watched the podcast four months ago in August. (Also: microfiber)

The Original Smartphone Awards 🏆

Was waiting for this, great choices 🙌🏾

[themahdi]

It would be a great idea to have a category of older phones that are still viable and efficient in this new year

[shellyreed]

I feel like that was really well thought out and really well done.There is a reason you are so looked up to and reguarded in the smart phone and tech world.Job well done to you and your crew once again.I so enjoy it all.

[seanlyons]

A lot of respect for someone who can view phones for their attributes alone and ignore the caveman mentality of brand/OS loyalty. Well done, a great and informative video.

[sorayaarifin]

always love your annual smartphone awards! this year is def. better than last year!

[fajulate]

I can't believe that I watch these videos almost everyday. MKBHD content is out of this world. I don't know how he does it but these videos are incomparable.

[Jdotgg]

Samsung not winning in the foldable category is telling in how comfortable they have gotten at putting out the same phone year over year. I really hope that they will come out with a passport type foldable next year.

[ehmzed]

I'm always so glad to see the Asus Zenfones being mentioned and praised in these videos 🥹
Sad that there's never a Sony Xperia or a Nokia worthy of a mention instead..

[PrinceWalterM]

The sound quality in your videos is so so good..i feel like it goes unnoticed by the majority

I've had my Z Flip 5 just over 2 months now, I'm in a machine shop working with steel two days a week and so far it's held up fine, even with some drops.

[gabhoule]

As a foldable phone user, I confirm that every MKBHD videos mostly all works in fullscreen and I love you guys for it.

[Rayfano]

I posses the S23 Ultra now for about 8 months and I just want to mention: people saying "that crazy zoom is useless" couldn't be more wrong! The amount of times I've used the 10x zoom is crazy! I think I use it about 30% of the time I make a picture or need to scan a QR-code during a lecture or something. It's just so much more crisp than digital zoom, it actually produces usable pictures.

[SilentToast-twiu]

Great video as always. Always enjoy the uploads and the constant increase in quality from the channel! Here’s to a great 2024 and beyond!

[jonathanhoffman]

I love how he says “so many shapes and sizes” and then pans to dozens of almost identically sized rectangles 🤣🤣

imagine a smartphone/telephone award ceremony show 15-20 years ago, where the phones would all be shown from the back. Impossible. But nowadays, the front faces are almost identical, it is the back sides that make a phone's character and identity.

[LaunchRecap]

You know the year has come to an end when marques releases the smartphone awards. What a year for everyone. Happy new year marques and anyone reading this. It has been a pleasure watching you in 2023 ❤

[DeltaRanger]

Another great smartphone award video, I guessed some of your picks just from watching your videos. With all those phones do you ever have a hard time deciding which Android you want to use? Do you switch them out often? Anyhow, have a Happy New Year!! Can't wait for the Galaxy S24 Ultra review!

[sembalo]

petition to add best repairability one of these years, these vids are always awesome and gets me a bit more caught up with the phone market every year. that zenfone 10 seems pretty dope
