If the product is so fundamentally flawed in his mind, then why even bother with it? If you as a reviewer can’t even give a proper opinion and spend an other 500 dollars on it, to give your audience a good review.

For fun. For entertainment. That is the point of the video. He wasn't making that video "as a reviewer" he was making it as an entertainer.

Here is an alternative Piped link(s): https://piped.video/FGW3TPytTjc?t=1789

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

That's on the WAN Show, that's not part of the video. Separately made comments are separate.

Well then he shouldn’t have given a buyers recommendation. Some of Linus video’s don’t make any sense, like everyone can install a swimming pool at the back of their PC? Those balls to the walls videos are still the most fun to watch, as it’s original content, and maybe something they should stick to more often.

But don’t give a buyer recommendation about a small company, if the testing is done in a bad way.

Link to me where in the video there was a buyer recommendation.

Part of his rambling reply to the GN video was a comment that he was 'looking out for the consumer' and they didn't want to recommend buying it. It was part of his justfication not to use the thing correctly.
