Everyone and their mother is scared of North Korea, but once Nintendo finds out they're using an unlicensed Mario ripoff on their smartphone the DPRK will suddenly be part owned by a Tokyo law firm.

@EnigmaticGentleman

Each phone coming with Super Mario Galaxy is genuinely really cool, someone over there actually has good taste in games

@General12th

Hi Sam!

Huge shout out to Amy braving the Korean DMZ to steal one of these phones herself, just to provide the b-roll for this video. She deserves a raise!

@tupcho33

As a person who works in the field of telecom - i can assure you at least 2000 calls come out from NK daily, some seem to be legit calls and not just NK pretending to have external connectivity

@PotatoGaming123

They got 5 angry birds and a super mario galaxy? What the fuck dude, this is unfair

@Ridcally

It's cool how windows recall is actually north Korean technology

@jangschoen1019

So they get Angry Birds Star Wars and not us?

@KieranBorovac

Just to let y'all know: YouTube has a feature where you can upload a transcript of the video and it automatically generates a closed caption track with the right timings. Presumably you already have a script for these videos, so you can just copy that in and get accurate subtitles for very little extra work. Just noting this for accessibility :)

The amount of spyware and backdoors those things carry must be off the charts

@clamdove3292

i wonder how often north korean cellphones run out of storage space because of how many screenshots the phone has taken. i wonder what you do when that happens. do you just go to the government and say "hey can you remove these screenshots so i can download another game pls"

Plugging in a keyboard to an android phone is a standard feature, as long as your device supports otg which is every device made in the last 8-10 years. Considering android uses the linux kernel, every plug and play keyboard and mice should just work, they've in my experience at least.

@PsRohrbaugh

Long-time Samsung DeX user. Connecting a keyboard and mouse to your phone is surprisingly useful when traveling light (like unplug them from someone else's computer). Can get a lot of real office work done.

@imsamiurrahman

Plot twist: North Korean phones come with Kim Jong Un's picture as the default wallpaper.

@NigelMelanisticSmith

I'm a sucker for a good gimmick, and can admit that I'd love the gimmick of going to a real store just to download an app lol.

@theundead5419

I am surprised to learn that they even have smartphones.

@afwagner

Sam, you’re not helping yourself get a season of JetLag filmed in North Korea.

@YuNherd
