so it's a different type of video today and it's just a quick update on the
channel along with some information of a new feature that some of you may have
already noticed so to start with it we'll be addressing the memberships
some of you guys may have noticed that below the videos you now have this
join button and this was put there after a few people had requested it
now this is an additional way to support the channel and it's only there for
those of you that want it i massively appreciate all of my subscribers and
this isn't something you have to do of course i do appreciate those of you that
do want to join the channel membership and of course those of you that already
do but it's not something that i'm going to be pushing on this channel
for members though there are going to be a few perks so we're going to quickly
run through all of them now before we cover the new changes on the channel
so first of all we've got the badges all members are going to get a special
badge next to their name for comments as well as the live chat the badges
are of course mobile phone companies and changed to show how long you've actually
been a member we start with the xiaomi mi logo for the new members you get
huawei after a month one plus after two months google after six months samsung
after a year and if you've been a member for two years you get the apple logo
now it was hard to choose the order of these so please let me know in the
comments if you think that this order should actually be different we also
have emojis that are unlocked and again we've got logos right now but we'll have
plenty more phone related emojis including new smartphones and new
company logos we currently have samsung google oneplus and apple and i will be
adding more when i can as more members join it allows me to add new emojis
the emojis can be used in the chat and i think it's going to be great
for the phone launch watch alongs that we'll be doing soon on the channel
the next perk is custom wallpapers and theme packs for you guys to download
and this is going to be for both android and ios these packs are
going to be released at the end of each month starting in september
and they're going to be available in the members community tab as well as
that you'll get discounted merchandise when it's available and access to a
members only live chat which is going to take place at the end of each month
and it's going to allow you guys to make requests about future videos or ask any
questions you may have and finally you get early access to my videos while i
normally make them on a daily basis if i do have some made ahead of schedule
i'll of course open the viewing to you guys we also have an option for a mega
supporter which gets all of those perks we've just listed on the normal level
but they'll also get their name in the credits of every single one of my videos
and they also get priority replies now as you guys know i do try and
reply to all of my comments but it's just not possible to do all the time
with the amount of comments i get but i do try and reply it to as many as i can
youtube does point out my members comments so i can use this
to make sure that i reply to all of the mega supporters comments when i'm
going through my comments as this is new to the channel and i want to give
something to you guys i thought i'd also include an offer for the first 50 normal
supporters while you'd normally need to be a mega supporter to get your names
in the credits the first 50 normal supporters will get this as well so
that's it for the membership and again i need to stress that this is not required
and i do appreciate all my subscribers the same this is just there for those
that do want the extra membership now on to a few channel changes of course
we cover all of the new leaks on this channel and it has been going very well
but i'm going to try and add a little bit more we're going to try and branch
out from smartphones a little more and probably tablet seems to be the
next obvious step i'll also try and get in front of the camera more and focus
on more review content i've got a few in-depth reviews lined up already and
this is going to be things like the red magic 5g and the tcl10 pro and a couple
of other mid-range phones we're also going to start doing watch with me's
on the phone launches where we can see how accurate the leaks were and allow
you guys to chat while we see the new smartphones unveil of course that's just
a few ideas that i've come up with but as always i'm open to suggestions so let
me know in the comments if you guys have any ideas that's all for today
though so thanks for your time of course if you like the video smash a thumbs up
if you didn't hit the thumbs down twice and i'll see you guys in the next one
