Do Bad Reviews Kill Companies?

MKBHD is already pretty tame when it comes to criticism by YouTube standards. Blaming a reviewer for a failing company is like blaming the weatherman for the hurricane

Without bad reviews, bad products just live longer and disappoint more people than they should.

What makes your platform so influential is that we can TRUST you to tell the TRUTH. Thank you for doing the job with integrity.

When I first came across that tweet about your review of the Humane AI pin, my first thoughts were "Shouldn't reviews be honest?" and "Blaming the reviewer for actually giving honest feedback is actually counterproductive to any progress in any industry." Keep doing what you do, Marques, that is why we watch your reviews.

If one review can kill your company, your product wasn't good to begin with.

People are essentially arguing that you're too popular to be honest. That's absolutely absurd.

It's one step closer to a capitalistic dystopia when people are convinced giving fair - even if they're negative and 'bad' - reviews of products people spend their hard earned money on is somehow a bad thing to do.

Best YouTuber in my opinion. Thank you for your integrity. These old people can’t fathom their rich friends losing money yet don’t break a sweat to charge people $700 for a terrible product.

A bad product hurts my pocket. An honest review hurts the company that wants to hurt my pocket.

Nobody is entitled to having a successful business. Maybe don't make bad products if you don't want to go bankrupt?

Bad reviews expose companies, bad products are the finisher.

Marques you’ve stopped me from buying tech I would have been so disappointed with. I’m glad you are out there being honest. Don’t change.

MKBHD just casually dropped a 10/10 review of his own review

Bad Product = Bad Reviews. But the reviews didn't kill the company, the product did.

Nice one for addressing this. I keep hearing content creators say your reviews make or break a company and I found that hilarious. Glad you're addressing it

We are with you Marques!!! I've been here for almost 7 years now and you're on the same line that I love when it comes to quality and honesty about any product, I believe this is only the result of the overgrowing "I think" media that people have access to... And... Well... I just wanna say, thanks for being you, peace.

Twitter: he was mean and killed the company 😭 poor company 😭 Marques: skill issue

10:44 That tweet essentially boils down to "You should lie because the truth is uncomfortable".

Your work is much appriciated Marques! Thanks for letting us know what is worth its money.

Having watched dozens of videos you have made I get the sense of a kind sincere person consistently coming through over and over in video after video. Thank You! And keep the great work. I have some words for people that criticize you for your honesty sure, coming from an individual who I don’t recall hearing another product you’ve reviewed having such a directly Honest, do not buy review which you did not say you have absolutely every right and I think perhaps what is happening with these folks is that it’s more prominent when someone is not regularly putting down products so I think the words resonate even more directly when that person (you) Communicate in such direct and honest manner. people vote with their eyes and my eyes told me they’re going to be coming back to see your next videos! Keep it up
