There’s not point of consuming excess space in your video for merely listing out the features of the product. Remember, your customers are more interested in knowing the benefits of the product.
For example: if there is any technical product like laptop, mobile or any other gadget, etc do not just flood the customers with all the technical features like memory space, number of users, internal/external storage, etc.
Tell them how the product can make their lives better and solve their problem. Why will it be in their favour to purchase your product, lay emphasis on that.
