Ranking Every Smartphone I've Used! - 91Tech 

Happy New Year! Just thought I'd do something fun today and talk about my old smartphones- hope you all enjoy, and here's to a great 2021!

Have a great 2021, Josh and everyone

I aspire to be like you one day Josh, I’ve loved tech for so long, I have 7 phones right now which include my phone and some old phones that my aunts have to me since they stopped using them after like high school. This was super inspiring man :) I’m 13 rn and I have the same dream you did. Thx for entertaining us Josh, happy New Years!

I am visually impaired. Without my glasses I thought it said “Eating Every Smartphone I’ve Used”. What a way to start off the new year.

Happy new year to everyone!

Wow. You’re only 20. Kind of makes me feel like a creepy old man freak for subbing to a kid barely older than my own kids, but screw it. I enjoy your content, have actually learned a few things from your videos, and am happy to be a fairly long time subscriber (two or three years now I think). Consider adding Channel Memberships in the future. Might provide a little extra revenue stream and provide some perks to those that wish to support your channel further. Happy New Year Josh. Thanks for the entertaining content.

Last time I was this early iPhones weren’t 1000 dollars

Great video Josh, thanks for showing that the regular guys like us can make it like you did and do what you love. Happy new year bro. Congrats on everything (love the puppy btw)

This is so wholesome, Thank you for this video. Take care Josh!

I really enjoy your deadpan humor!

I couldn't focus on what he was saying at the end there because the puppy was too distracting lol

I might as well start the trend of rating used smartphones in the comments (Best from the top to the bottom) Galaxy S20+ (My current phone) iPhone 5s Pixel 4a* (My current secondary phone) iPhone XS iPhone 8 iPhone 6s* iPhone SE1* iPhone XR (Broke, replaced with the XS) Galaxy S7* Blackberry Q10 Galaxy S5* *I added some other phones which I didn't ever mainly use but have used along with my main phones over the years.

That story was honestly touching for me as someone dealing with the hatred of college and everything. I really don't know what to do with my life, but I'm glad you have found what you want to do. Either way, I love how you ranked the 5C so high. The 5C was my first real smartphone. Because of this, it was probably my favorite phone ever. I loved using it a lot and still have it. I also liked my 6S, but I had so many issues with Apple's software at the time and it make me switch to Android. Also, my original 6S's backlight broke due to being in a pool for 10 seconds. Pretty ironic though that whenever I use a 6S now that it almost feels faster than my current Galaxy S8 and it gets current software updates while my S8 doesn't. I love my S8 though for introducing me to using random apps on my phone, and that's why I want to stick to Android at least for now even though I love the smoothness of iPhones. iOS has honestly gotten better since my 6S days. My iPad Pro shows me that.

I don't think that any of us would have a problem with filming with Cola, so that she doesn't get lonely.

Have a great and better new year Josh! Hope your channel will get bigger! Keep up the hard work!

I never thought I would see a cute dog in a tech video

I understand the whole getting bored of phones thing haha, I usually replace my phone every 4-8 months

AWWWWWW COLA IS ADORABLE!!!!! 😍😩

Omg I’ve never been so early love the content and happy new year

HTC - 1/5 iPhone 5/5

We gotta see a tech video about the beautiful mustang tho lol

Have a Happy new year Everyone 🎇🎆

Hey guys remember when Josh was at like 13k subscribers?

You are a great RU-vidr! I hope you get to 1 mil + soon!

I hear a big difference of opinion from people with the XS line who got the XS Max. It felt like a big improvement on the regular X, awesome battery and a nice big display. The regular XS in comparison was probably one of the smallest upgrades ever between generations

I've been using a iPhone 4s for almost 9 years now that I got in freshman year of high school. Never had a reason to upgrade until now and I plan on making the very freak move of getting the s21 ultra next month when it releases. This'll be fun. Also happy new year!

Loved the video and your dog is so adorable! Glad you’re able to make RU-vid your career, started watching your videos recently and live your content! I haven’t owned as many phones as you have, got my first back in grade 9 in 2012. Order of favourites is basically the order I got them in 😂 For me, least favourite to most favourite is: whatever the 7-Eleven SpeakOut cheaper Nokia C1 is, Nokia C3, Samsung Galaxy Ace II X, LG G3, LG G5, OnePlus 6, and iPhone 11. I’d love to hear what phones everyone else has had and their favourites too!

Any former Palm users here? My first smartphone was a Palm Centro, and I kind of miss it.

Happy new year to all!!! also Josh your videos are awesome I can't wait to see new videos in 2021!

Channels like these are the reason why I don’t use adblockers on RU-vid. Keep up the amazing work!! You deserve all that you get from RU-vid!!!

Love the content bro plz keep going keep posting more videos, have fun and I hope we have a better 2021

I still use my 6S that i bought used in 2017 from a friend that bought it in 2015, still runs super great and im keeping it at least one more year

I’ve been a subscriber since the beginning and this is one of my Favorite channels on RU-vid have a happy new year Josh!!

The RU-vid story is truly admiring. I'm glad you took the RU-vid Journey and I hope your channel continues to grow :)

So proud of how far you've come Josh! Been here since 2018, wow it's been 3 years?! It's been amazing seeing how far you've come not only with your channel, but also with everything you talked about at the end of the video. Can't wait to see what amazing things you're gonna get done in the future but let's hope 2021 is a great year for everyone! Keep it up man

My phones: LG KG225 - This phone was used for a week before I found my dad's old Samsung Monte with a touch screen. The KG225 is a small flip phone with a low quality camera. Samsung Monte S5620 - I used it for a long time, it had basic functionality but a web browser was built in, so I was happy with it. I lost it eventually and got a Nokia Lumia 520. Nokia Lumia 520 - My first phone with an app store, running Windows Phone 8. It was good at first, then got slow, then I cracked my camera lens. HTC Desire C - My first Android phone. The specs were lots worse than my previous Lumia 520, but Windows Phone was getting unreliable. Alcatel Pixi 4 4"- After a long time with my Desire c, I wanted to get better battery with a decent android version. The Pixi 4 4" had Android 6.0.0 rather than Android 4.0.2. I kept it until 2019 when the screen was shattered and I got a Galaxy A10. Samsung Galaxy A10 - This was a huge upgrade from my Pixi 4, with 32GB of storage instead of 4GB. It had Android 9.0 when Android 10 had came out, but I didn't mind as I got an update for Android 10 in June. I kept it until the end of 2020. Samsung Galaxy A21s - This is my current phone, I only bought it on 28th December. It's the phone I'm using to type on.

I had the Wildfire as MY first smartphone too. I ‘upgraded’ to a Galaxy Ace (which wasn’t an upgrade) and regretted it fast. It was a great phone.

Wait hold on you’re only 20? I never suspected that we would be the same age. It’s very impressive hearing about your accomplishments and achieving your dream at such a young age. Congrats on getting this far! Can’t wait to see where this takes you!

Here's for a lot more subscribers and years and years to come of amazing videos. I discovered your channel recently, and oh boy what a treat it has been! Keep up the good work, Josh!

According to my friends, "upgrading" from an 11 Pro to a 12 is considered downgrading, because of smaller battery, one less camera, and smaller size But I consider this as a big win (upgrade) because it has a new chipset, a new design, a screen and a phone size that I can still consider it to be large, and it is amazing.

happy new year Josh!!

1. LG G5 2. Google Pixel 3 3. Apple iPhone SE (2016) 4. Apple iPhone 12 mini 5. Essential Phone 6. HTC One M8 7. Google Nexus 5 8. Xiaomi Mi 3 9. Apple iPhone 4S 10. BlackBerry Bold 9900 I've also owned the BlackBerry Bold 9000, iPhone 4 & 5, Palm Pixi Plus, HTC One M7, first Pixel, Galaxy S7 edge, iPhone 7, and LG V20. I probably owned like 40+ phones and about 35 are smartphones. My first smartphone was the Nokia N82 and then iPhone 2G. Nobody likes the G5 but it's the best all-around phone. It's #1 because of removable battery, microSD, and IR blaster.

Hey Josh, happy new year! Really liked your style of making videos even back then

All the content you have posted this year was by far the best can't wait want you have for us in 2021 happy New year

Happy new year Josh! I love your vids and can't wait to see them next year in 2021!

My First Smartphone, was in the Year 2000, and it was a Nokia smartphone too, from Kmart, and that Nokia Smartphone I had from 2000 to 2003.

“Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life...” Confucius - wishing you more success in the New Year 2021 & thank you for your solid advice on used iPhones, Mr. Josh.

Me who had from my born to now (13 years) fourteenth phones: Sony Ericson arc s, samsung galaxy s4 mini (black), Nokia something idk, another Nokia which idk, Samsung galaxy A5 2015, Sony Xperia SP, Samsung galaxy s4 mini (white), Lenovo vibe s1 lite, Samsung galaxy s7 edge, huawei P9 lite, Huawei P30 lite, Samsung Galaxy A50 (2019), iPhone 11 (now)

just hearing how you talk about how much of an improvement in battery life from the XS to the 11 Pro is making me excited to upgrade this September, likely to the 12S if that's what they call it. The current battery life I have is pretty poor, if I use my phone a lot, I'll wake up at 11 and need to charge around 3 or 4, being around 20% at that time. My battery health is down to 80% and my FaceID doesn't work.

Been enjoying the content, dude. Keep it real 👍

Happy new year, awesome video!

I can’t ever imagine being that successful any on RU-vid! You’ve got this and I’m sure that you have a bright and amazing future. just a curiosity, will you ever do a Q and A lifestream at some point?

I had seven phones in the last 5 years, so that's an extreme I guess, but that's mostly for three cheap phones breaking in a year in 2017. Here you buy phones yourself, you generally don't buy it with your contract.

Wow, I have never been so early to a 91 Tech video!

I’m similar to you in that I didn’t get an activated SIM until October 2018, despite getting my first iPhone (4) in for Christmas 2012 when I was 11. Once that iPhone was getting long in the tooth I also got the iPod touch 6th gen in September 2016, and that iPod still sees use today, so I really got my money’s worth out of that, even though it’s impressive performance was later bested by my 6s I got in December 2017.

Thanks for the great content josh! Wish you a happy new year 🥳 Love from srilanka ❤️🙌

I miss my doxies so bad she passed way 2 years ago , beautiful pup you have there

Happy New year everyone 🎉🎉🎉 2021 Will be only about positive News for everyone enjoye guy's.

My first “phone” was an iPod touch 3g, then a 4G, then another iPod 4G except with a working home button, then an iPhone 4s, and now an se 2!

We definitely would love to see Cola in another video! She’s the cutest.

I got my first cell phone at 13 in 2011. It was flip phone. It had an FM radio that I listened to all the time. I miss having an FM radio in my pocket.

Seeing him have that old hitch wildfire s and still be grateful makes me even more grateful for my iPhone 7 Plus which was my first phone

Same feels we have towards the iPhone X when I first held it it was just s so surreal, the premium design, oled screen amazed me at the time, honestly wouldn’t have let it go if not for the battery..so also upgraded to the 11 Pro and truly the battery, camera & the unique midnight green color variant really made me love it. I just feel content with this phone right now & would only update if this breaks down or somethin’ or if Apple truly comes out with another groundbeaking update.

All of my phones I have had from first to newest are: Nokia 5310, Nokia N96, Nokia N8, Nokia Lumia 920, Samsung Galaxy S3, Huawei Honor 8, Sony Xperia XA, Huawei Y6 2018, Nokia 7.2, Sony Xperia XZs, Samsung Galaxy A21s and my newest Apple iPhone 12 pro max. I have had many different phones and liked all of them. I have a big phone collection also nowadays. About 20+ phones. Nokia bricks and smartphones, Samsung smartphones and feature phones, rare Nokia models like E7(only 100000 built), and some other smartphones like Huawei Mate 10 Pro and my old Sony XZs. I have also iPhone 4 in my collection, but it wasnt mine. My favorite phone from the collection is the Nokia E7 or my most used phone Nokia Lumia 920(used it still after had other phones and stopped using it when WP support stopped.

Funny story, I used to have a Dachshund, her name was Molly. She was pretty old when she passed, but she had a lot of spunk!!

My first smartphone was a Lg L20 Frozen Edition (that is when I was a little boy), then I sold it to my cousin and got a Samsung Galaxy J7 from my dad (now he's an iPhone lover) which then broke, so I got a new Galaxy J7 from my uncle but this time a J7 Prime which I used for a long time until It "broke" (the screen that is, it still works) and now the newly formed Samsung fanatic bought an A21s and I'm using it to write this comment 🙃

I own a few phones over the years 1. 2005 nokia tracfrone which i remember playing the ball game 2. I had a flip phone with a walking talking 3. Another flip phone 4. tracfone phone touch screen when i started high school in 2009 5. I upgrade to Samsung Galaxy s6 in 2015 which lasted me for so long such a great phone 6. Thinq phone last year 7. Now iphone 12

I’ve only used iPhone 6,7,XR,and 12pro max.I’m 26 years old and didn’t get a phone until I was 20 lol!XR felt like such a big upgrade when I got it

A lot of people I knew had an iPhone 4. I used a 3GS. My current is 6S. Don’t know when I’ll upgrade. I can’t stop using 3D Touch on my 6S.

Btw OLED actually saves battery life, it doesn’t drain it.

Happy new year josh, thanks for all the great content!!

It's amazing that the iPhone 6s is still going strong on iOS 14. It will probably be the last update that the 6s gets, thats good as we don't want it killed like the iPhone 4s.

You deserve a million sub by end of 2021!!! Great content Josh!!! Looking for more this year

Going from a second hand iphone 8+ with a shattered back and mediocre battery life to an iphone 12 pro max was probably the biggest upgrade for me

I remember the very last time that I went to a community college was in September of 2004 which then I was struggling to pass technical writing so I also dropped out and mainly focused on working and surviving. I did graduate highschool in May of 2002 and I think the only iPhone out at that time was the original 5GB iPod. BTW, what was your favorite smartphone in 2004?

I was 9 or 10 when I got my first smartphone, specifically I got a hand-me-down Motorola Droid. Loved that phone and used it till the screens backlight died on me

My list: (best to worst) 1. iPhone 12 (christmas 2020), brought me back to apple and I like it a lot. Battery life is miles better than the pixel 3 and overall experience dosen't leave me missing android, especially with iOS 14 having the customization i want. 2. Google Pixel 3 (2018), great phone, would still be using it if i hadnt gotten an iPhone 12 as a gift 3. Huawei P8 Lite 2017, was a good phone to replace the samsung, still a budget device but i had fun using it and it survived a 7 meter fall onto concrete 4. iPod Touch 6th gen (2015), was my first ever device, had lots of fun jailbreaking it 5. Samsung Galaxy J3 2016 (Late 2016), was actually decent for its very low price. I used it for a while and installed custom roms on it to expand it's life 6. LG K4 (2016), horrible and broke after 4 months I have an iPhone 4S too that i used briefly (it was my mum's phone for a while) which i have since downgraded to iOS 6. It dosen't fit on the list but its still a great looking phone and especially after downgrading, performance isnt even that bad all these years later

My mom had a HTC wildfire when it came out, it survived falling off her car while on the highway which just shows how HTC in the early Android days up to 2017 where bricks when it comes to durability

I think I have used around 50-60 phones since 2006. If fast internet services came earlier in India and if I knew about youtube earlier, I could have been a successful youtuber. I changed phones in a matter of months and could have reviewed each and every one of them.

Love your vids, Bro!!!!!!!!! KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!! You’ve helped get me through 2020!!

Happy New Year

My very first smartphone that I remember having was the Kyocera KWC 2135 with Alltel that I remember getting shortly after my 18th birthday and highschool graduation in May of 2002. That phone I remember using until early 2006 which after that, I mainly just had a phone and internet plan with a cable company until 2010. Hit some hard times of unemployment in the early 2010s, then in 2014, I got the 1st gen Motorola Moto G with Boost Mobile. Then with that same carrier, I then got the ZTE elite in late 2015. Then got the ZTE max xl in early 2017, then got the Samsung Galaxy S8 in early 2018 and I used that until late 2018 when Hurricane Michael came. I then decided to switch to AT&T because it has much better coverage than Boost Mobile, even when I'm on a trip to Mexico. So I then had the Xiaomi Mi A2 in late 2018. Then finally in July of 2020, I got the Samsung Galaxy S10 plus which is what I use now as my primary smartphone. I know its been a little while since I was 20 years old, I turned 20 years old on May 11th, 2004. I don't think anyone had any iphones in 2004. Off and on, I tried using an iPhone as a smartphone like the 5s and the first iPhone SE and I feel like I like Android better maybe because seems more user friendly and customizable, but I guess thats just my personal preference even though I do still use a 2nd gen iPod touch from 2008 sometimes for listening to music. Well have a happy 2021 New Year.

2021 over here! Happy New Year!

My personal ranking of all the smartphones I've owned (not many but oh well): 1.) Google Pixel 4 XL, Just Black 64GB -I've had this phone for a bit over a year now (it's my current daily driver) and despite all the flack the Pixel 4 got at launch, this phone has to date been the most enjoyable phone I've used with its smooth refresh rate, great battery life, clean stock Android, and the best cameras I've used yet. 2.) Samsung Galaxy S9, Coral Blue 64GB -The was my first Android smartphone after only using iPhones and Apple products in general since the iPod Nano, so it was a major change. However, being the phone that got me majorly into Android, I have a soft spot for it despite its shortcomings; those being the poor battery life and rather bloated and bogged software which I heavily modified over the time I owned it to combat this (I had an AT&T model, which had major amounts of bloat on it). 3.) iPhone 5C, Green 32GB -This was my very first smartphone after having a crappy AT&T prepaid flip phone, an iPod Touch 4, a 1st-Gen iPad handed down from my dad, and an iPod Nano, and it was remarkably good to use at first being it was my first smartphone. The phone was built like a tank and never broke even after dropping it on concrete multiple times without a case, but it became so sluggish and poor on battery life after just two years that the experience near the end was borderline unbearable; I still have very fond memories of it though and actually still have it as a backup phone. 4.) iPhone 6S, Space Gray 64GB -I know many people have fond memories of the 6S, but my experience with it was just horrific after only half a year with it. The battery swelled up and nearly bursted through the rear housing about 1 year into ownership and I had to get it replaced, and the overall phone was EXTREMELY fragile from my experience; I dropped this phone one time early on and the whole screen shattered, which has yet to happen since and the whole phone became so scuffed even though it was in a case. Also, I had absolutely horrendous experiences on iOS 11 with the phone constantly getting stuck in a bootloop when restarting after freezing up, which happened frequently, and the battery life dropped off badly after iOS 11 as well, even with the battery replacement. Horrible phone and horrible experience, which is part of why I ditched iOS for Android in the end. Would I go back to iOS? Maybe one day, but I have no interest at the moment.

My route, firefly 2010,iPhone 3GS, 2012 no phone until 2014, htc one s, Alcatel one touch, Nokia 650, 2016 s7 edge, 2018 s8+, 2020 iPhone 12 Pro.

Josh, I love your videos a lot. I hope you have a great 2021!

5 years ago my first portable device owned by me was a RCA tablet with 8 gigs. I feel kinda stupid saying this, but I kinda liked it, it did what I wanted pretty well, but my needs weren't too great. It lasted about an hour to 2 hours on a full charge at lowest brightness(on the box it said 5 hours tho), anyway, I plugged it in while using it too much and its battery went completely dead, I still remember the last minute of its life, plugged in at 100% and it hitting zero immediately when I unplugged it. Now here's probably the reas3on why I think that tablet was decent: I was stupid enough to buy another.....uy, that tablet was trash. It had 16 gigs, better than 8 gigs I guess, but It ACTUALY had only 10 gigs on it, what a ripoff, anyway, it was a rip-off, I could BARELY RUN RU-vid, taking like 10 minutes to load it up, 1 hour battery max at LOWEST BRIGHTNESS POSSIBLE(the box still said 5 hour lasting battery) and it was just jeneraly not a good tablet. I still have it and it takes THE ENTIRE BETTERY LIFE, which I almost never plugged in while using by the way, I learned my lesson from the other one, anyway, as I was saying, it TAKES THE ENTIRE BATTERY LIFE OF THE DEVICE ON LOWEST BRIGHTNESS TO HOOK UP TO THE INTERNET. it will literaly take half an hour to let it get a grip and be able to boot up google play after turning the internet on on it, and would die before like 2 updates are completed. And its like only 3 years old. Anyway, its junk, and last Christmas I wrinkly got the amazing thing im using right now, a Samsung Galaxy Tab A. Amazing. No lag when booting up apps, an entire day of battery if you put on battery saver mode, an awesome tablet for only like 180$. Anyway, was your first phone as bad as my second tablet? Wow I wrote alot. I should make a rant video...

The puppy is so cute, but the pronunciation of dachshund hurt me. 😂

You are one of the main RU-vidrs that I trust for smartphone information I really wouldn’t go to many other places

I’m literally using the iPod touch 6 generation

PUPPY SHES SO CUTE I LOVE HER

Worst phone I have ever had was the Nokia lumia 530 it was so painful to use

Happy New Year bro. Love your content. God bless you

Such an inspiring video!! Keep up the good work. You are shining !!!

Happy New year

Happy new year josh i love your video

HELLO COLAAAA really inspiring story josh on how you started youtube!

My mom had the iPhone 5c and she LOVED it. Not saying that my mom doesn’t like her 6s but she loves the smaller phone.

You sound kinda like me with wanting to go from an ipod to a bigger screen, since I overdid it and went to a bigass android phone with a full screen, no interruptions (with the inclusion of a popup camera). I love it, but maaaan is it maybe a bit too big. It barely fits in my pocket! My next phone I'm thinking of trying to go with a foldable to get a big screen with a small size.

Every time i hear resonance by home it brings me back
