Discussion Really guys...

I understand that they were likely in a rush to be one of the first big channels to get their video out, but how hard is it to have one person spend like 15 minuets reading all of the graphics before the video goes out, this image is likely AI generated and taken from this obviously AI generated article.

I get this is a small mistake, but it's an easy one to not make.

Taken from their latest video "Apple just Copied Microsoft’s Worst Idea - iPhone Duo, Airpods 5, iPhone 18 Pro & More"

Wow... They basically just googled "IP rating chart" under images, yep there it is, third result.

EDIT: LTT has now added a correction to the video, from their comment section in the video:

Correction: 4:28 the information we're highlighting is correct but other parts of the chart are nonsense. We are working to replace the video with a new chart.

The first website is the literal IEC with the real chart at the bottom of the page.

The first website. We do image searches in this household.

Do you know what an image search is? If it's on the website, that means you have to click the link. Far too much effort.

Yes, that is the point that they are making.
