Samsung Secrets…what’s next? And invalid traffic is back!!

On this episode we are joined by Daniel from Tech with Benefits and as he is Mr Samsung it was too good of an opportunity to not corner him and pry out of him what he thinks may be coming in January when Samsung launches the S24 Ultra. What AI features can we possibly expect? Will LOG or RAW video make its way to Samsung’s flagship phone in ’24? Daniel gives us the inside scoop on what his dream camera set-up would be and Alex talks about shooting 8K on his S23.

Alex covers his recent VLOG-style videos and tells us about where the inspiration came from and Daniel tells us how he makes Samsung content in between events and releases.

David has seen some good growth recently on his channel and pulls back the curtains on what he thinks has been at the heart of that growth. Also, having been hit by the invalid traffic strike in the summer David and the boys cover the latest fallout from it and how creators are still being left without answers.
