Between the thorough reviews, regular uploads, clean production style and weird products, this channel has it all.

The Verge

A channel which claims to cover the intersection of technology, science, art, and culture, the Verge sets out with a pretty big task and it accomplishes it in style. The channel handles product reviews, product comparisons and tech news presenting it in a way that is understandable for all viewers from industry aficionados to tech novices. There is no high and mighty or we-are-clever-and-you-are-not narrative going on here, just honest relatable ideas about things that the average tech lover cares about.

Android Authority

Any fan of Android smartphones could easily spend hours, days, even weeks going through Android Authority. As the title channel suggest it is the place to go when you are thinking about upgrading your Android cell phone. Everything is covered: aesthetics, tech, design, performance, apps and price comparisons plus to-watch-out-for gadget giveaways. The channel’s roster of presenters are plenty of fun as well, as they really know their stuff and will tell you exactly which phones are safe to drop and from what height.

PocketNow

Founded in 2010, PocketNow was born of a pre-iPhone era when mobile technology was just taking off. As such, the channel boasts plenty of well-researched tech expertise. The videos are presented in a direct way but are still entertaining simply because of the amount of useful information that they contain. But their unique selling point is the daily news round up appropriately called PocketNow daily. A short run down of what’s hot with smartphones, tablets, and wearables, it’s everything that any tech lover could ever need.

UnboxTherapy

Lewis nails the balance between tech speak and simple language posting several videos a week where he discusses the latest tech innovations and releases. But what makes this guy especially watchable is that his enthusiasm is infectious. He is like everybody’s gadget-crazed best buddy.
