I would actually go ahead and say that his gadget reviews are wishy washy, too soft and lacks objectivity. I understand its not supposed to be a full technical analysis but he makes what makes it popular and wide appealing. Especially, his audio gear reviews are full of subjective claims - "It sounds roomy, with crisp highs and thumpy base but not too muddy." They are, to me, utterly and completely useless pieces of information.
I'll go and read Anandtech now. I don't fully blame MKBHD. I blame the entire genre of youtube reviews. I need data. I need A-B tests. I need technical specification verification using proper metrology. That's how my brain evaluates things I want to spend money on.
