Initially having started as a series, where [[OSFirstTimer Format|five basic tasks]] were given to complete on various operating systems that were never tested before by his family, the channel has branched out to testing out and reviewing devices, software and games, either by himself or together with his family.
The original aim of OSFirstTimer was to find the best operating system which eventually turned out to be Arch Linux with the KDE desktop environment installed; it was given the unofficial name of 'The Diana Perfect OS' as Diana,
▲The original aim of OSFirstTimer was to find the best operating system which eventually turned out to be Arch Linux with the KDE desktop environment installed; it was given the unofficial name of 'The Diana Perfect OS' as Diana (Philip's mum) personalized it to her liking. MS-DOS was declared the worst operating system in the 'Top 3 Worst and Best Operating System User Interfaces' video.
After the best and worst operating systems were decided, the channel then solely focused on exploring operating systems in general; this was expanded upon with the [[OSFirstTimer Advanced]] series.
▲Renovations were completed and Phil uploaded a video on the 9th of December 2019 to explain why he couldn't upload due to VFR (Variable Frame Rate) issues, but was able to later. His Alienware Area 51 PC was upgraded to a Mwave Custom PC in January 2020 due to the Area 51's failing hardware and it being unable to record the screen. According to the update video addressing said information, Phil said it could take up to 2 months for a new video as his new Mwave machine won't boot every second day and due to Hobart to Sydney and Sydney to Hobart shipping taking a long time (Sydney is where Mwave is located).

=== Controversy regarding its first intro ===
Despite popular belief, the initial OSFirstTimer Advanced intro prior to the Tandy DeskMate video was not created by, but only customised by Philip. YouTube user ''[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbxPBKMfdfaoAAzNL6RkTAQ RavenProDesign]'' is the creator, having created it as a [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EVAgIYLoIjg free trailer template] in 2014. Furthermore, ''[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9JPg4gIktBM Neosphere]'', the song used, was published in late 2012 by Jack Trammell, working under the independent music company and record label ''PositionMusic''. Since permission by the company was missing for RavenProDesign to use said song, the song was never allowed to be used and redistributed by the user in any shape or form.
Without prior checking or knowledge of such, Philip used the template and edited it for his Advanced series, not replacing the song. This resulted in Philip having received copyright notices in the form of shared revenue notices with PositionMusic, albeit three and a half years after the publication of the first Advanced episode. That led to the post-upload cutdown of the intro of many Advanced episodes through YouTube's video editor.
That situation, along with the often-joked-about length of the two intros used (being around 15-20 seconds long), is the reason why Philip decided to use a new intro from the Tandy DeskMate video onwards, for both normal and Advanced episodes.
