When you’re trying to search the web for a gift for yourself or someone you love, it’s always daunting to see how many options there are. That’s why many people choose to go to YouTube and check out the reviewers the website has to offer.

Whether you want a large-scale reviewer or smaller, with the quick click of a button, YouTube can have you learning about anything from the pros and cons of different tech, to all-over specs. It’s up to the consumer of the video in the end to decide who is trustworthy.

Vyyyper The Man About Tech is one of those reviewers who has seen success with reviewing tech and satiating those who desire an honest opinion, while showing his personality. With over 6k subscribers, he’s cultivated a tight-knit and friendly community, despite only starting in 2018.

“People would always ask me about their tech; What I would recommend. One of my good friends made the suggestion, and I listened to him. On New Year’s Day of 2018, I uploaded my first video.”

Vyyyper was born and raised in Chicago, Illinois in the United States. As of now and happily, he still resides there and creates his content from his homebase.

“I consider myself to be a media personality, but technically I’m a tech content creator.”

He’s worked with VidIQ, Google, Nomad, Verizon and LG to name just a few. And what is the secret to success in his profession?

It wasn’t just his content and personality. The ability to get to know the community he wanted to be a part of played a large part. Getting to know people who were already established in the area of expertise was more than helpful.

Streamers like Roberto Blake, who boasts 540k subscribers on YouTube and over 52k followers on Twitter, noticed Vyyyper and they cultivated a working friendship.

“It was organic. I looked at video creators in the niche, and who they interacted with. I followed them and struck up organic conversation. That’s when I stated on Clubhouse. That played a part in growing my community.”

So, it is the first of December. What are Vyyyper’s favorite things right now?

“My new 2021 MacbookPro is absolutely incredible. I’ve been using it every day for work. That and my 2020 49 inch Samsung G9 Odyssey monitor. The productivity gains I’ve had this year were incredible.” You can find those products here and here.
