PickVidsBest Consumer devices & gadgets Videos
「Consumer devices & gadgets」下面有199部被不同的人、在不同月份推荐过的视频。挑的时候先看对象：入门5部，适合还没学过的人；进阶23部，适合已经懂术语的人；普通向166部，按兴趣就能看；更硬的5部，留给想看推导或细节的人。这一类数量最多的是演示，所以它们的共同点是先看到做成了什么，再决定要不要追细节。常出现的频道包括Linus Tech Tips、Technology Connections、Louis Rossmann。目录给这个主题划的范围是：Consumer tech devices: smartphones, laptops, wearables, displays, cameras, keyboards, e-readers, smart home gadgets, product reviews, startup hardware demos, wireless charging.如果只看三部，就从《Detergent packs are kinda wishy-washy (Dishwashers Explained)》开始，它负责把问题讲出画面；然后看《Behind the Scenes of iOS Security》，换一种讲法或例子；最后看《The Antique Toaster that's Better than Yours》，留给已经有基础的人。页面按每页24部切开，顺序看的是被推荐跨越了多少个月，不是播放量。每条标题下面那一句是这部片子自己的内容说明，用来区分它在讲定义、过程、演示还是观点。点进去能看到推荐原话、原文链接和适合谁看。看的时候把强烈推荐当成有人明确叫你去看，把引用当成只是拿来举例，把批评留下来对照，不要把每条评论都当成同一力度。
