Philip also edits for a fitness company located in Sydney, Australia. Some elements he includes in the videos for the company are also included in OSFirstTimer videos as well. One example of that would be the ''lower thirds'', which are the introduction slides/blocks with descriptive text, appearing mainly on the bottom of videos/documentaries.
He currently uses a Mwave Custom Built PC (elaborated below) as his main
To elaborate, his Mwave custom-built PC has an Intel Core i9 9900K @ 3.60GHz, 32GB of DDR4 3200MHz RAM in Dual Channel, a Samsung 970 EVO Plus 500GB as a boot/programs, Samsung 860 EVO 1TB for unknown reasons, 2x Seagate IronWolf 8TB and an MSI GeForce RTX 2060 with 6GB of VRAM. His Alienware Area 51 is still listed on his channel alongside his current PC but on his latest video, he said that the Alienware had failing hardware which made screen recording impossible. Unfortunately, the new Mwave PC was sent back due to it not powering on every 2nd day thus making recording videos on time impossible.

He learned about RSI (Repetitive Strain Injury) at school, and a little while later, he got it. For a while, he stayed away from the computer as it hurt his fingers and wrote a couple of books until he read an online article about TMS, a possible cure for RSI. He then made Let's Plays on a new YouTube channel called AstralPhaser. He was originally going to call this channel RSIGamer, but that would remind him of RSI. On this channel, he played games such as Minecraft.

He eventually became bored with the same games, since he wanted to play new ones (which he couldn't do, due to not finishing the games he'd started). By this point, TMS had cured his RSI, and he became interested in Windows 8 development. When it came out, he had his mum try it while filming her, starting the OSFirstTimer channel with that. The channel's main aim was to find the best and worst operating systems (initially the worst operating system was Windows 8 but that changed when Diana tried out MS-DOS). Now, they do it for fun, as his mum (Diana) had a 2013 Alienware 14 laptop with Windows 8 to replace her old Toshiba one with Windows XP. The Alienware laptop also got replaced later with the Lenovo Yoga
They used what they called the ''shaky cam'' method, until the [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G5AMQJokcwU Windows 95 video], where they started to use a screen recorder to show the operating system and a green screen to show Diana and Ben. On May 17, 2014, Philip started to make ''Dad Tries Out'' videos. OSFirstTimer also does tutorials, unboxings, and used to do comment videos as well. Philip even published the video [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hOLGm0W9QZc ''OSFirstTimer - House Tour!''] to the channel, which is a tour of their old apartment.

[https://www.youtube.com/user/I2padams/videos I2Padams] was one of Philip's first <span>YouTube</span> channels. This channel is a replacement for his first (now deleted) ''12padams'' channel and contains videos about ''Histacom''''', '''videos on ''The Phase''''' '''and also features some videos of an OS series he did call ''Up To Date''. Other videos include Minecraft being played by his then two-year-old sister Jasmine, a video of her eating a ''yucky lunch'', and Code link running on an iPad 2 with Splashtop. Due to Phil using a new account,
