Galaxy S24 problems & Vision Pro lands | Minus Sixteen Ep. 54 The Minus Sixteen Podcast

We go deep about the new Samsung S24 and Alex has been hands-on with it over the past few days. There are a couple of issues and concerns that he has already found to do with possible build quality problems and also the display. 
 
We talk about Apple’s Vision Pro - our expectations and our thoughts on it just one week out before it lands in customers' hands.
 
Then we talk about the weird month of January for creators and about the rash of creators quitting. Lastly, we chat over the way YouTube seems to penalise you for not staying in lane - oh, and our favourite apps!
Don’t forget, if you enjoy our weekly podcast to subscribe, like, share - and if you listen on Apple Podcasts - to leave us a rating (hopefully a 5-star one!) as well! 🙏🏻
