Placement of CPU and RAM .. never noticed before 😅

@zerohasan1 Год назад

The new motherboard design...🙂

@aelaan12 Год назад

Sturdiness, overall a very clean inside. Lots of little things like the clips for the bottom. The amount of space for the trackpad. I liked the better thermal for the cover by it being slightly thicker, absorbs more heat and maybe coil whine (lol). Yeah, good design, except.... the single nand ssd and only 8gb unified. But, hey more power to them, this is not my machine.

Hey guys, just wondering why you decide to do a teardown first before any benchmarking? Wouldn't that add a variabile which could affect your end results?

@_Mario_PL_ Год назад

Takes less time to make the 1st video, lets people know if they should upgrade the storage. Keep in mind they had to wait to get their hands on one just like the rest of us.

@Pochi1 Год назад

They might have done that first in case they destroyed the computer. They are just releasing this first.

@EnochGitongaKimathi Год назад

No need to wonder. They were not included as early reviewers as Apple did not provide them with a review unit. The embargo for early reviewers was lifted yesterday and most of them already have benchmarks. That's why they opted to be first with the teardown. Great strategy.

@georgestafylopatis8938 Год назад

@@Qwty163 Apple likes people to think they are selling luxury products. That's why they release stuff like that or the stand for 1000$. Macbook Air is a consumer product. An expensive one but still. 256GB base storage in 2023 should be illegal and charging 200$ for 8gb of ram or 256gb of storage is just milking their customers to be honest. I have a base macbook air and I'm happy with it but the next laptop i am buying probably won't be an Apple one

@matt2m Год назад

I don’t like the 15 and really want to. I’ve never been in a situation where the 14 MacBook Pro has been too thick. But the bag I have now just barley fits it. Honestly the 14 in is just as portable IMO.

@snazzydogs Год назад

You should also compare a breakdown like this against any windows laptop just for comparison of quality and care.

@PersonSuit Год назад

On a side note, I hope that benchmarks were ran first rather than taking it apart first. I say this as once that CPU was lifted it will never perform how it did from the factory. It could do better or worse but it will not be the expected factory performance people will get largely due to the thermal paste. If you reapplied it, it might be better or worse than what Apple used. If you didn't, than it may not perform the same as it would have during its first time getting pressure seated into place with fresh paste.

@expt22 Год назад

How long do you think would the ssd last especially with base model 8 gb ram?

@ahaimes6320 Год назад

It will easily last 10+ years, and after RAM will be the longest-lasting component. We are passed the point of worrying about SSDs' life. This assumes you have common sense and buy the 256GB for tasks made for that size. Remember, any swap goes mainly to the dRAM in the SSD, not the actual solid-state drive.

@codylutes9655 10 месяцев назад

So with the base model 256gb storage, how is it slower? Is it just slower when opening large files? Or the computer in general will feel slower than upgrading to the 512gb?

@frazerweb Год назад

Lets not get too precious about this laptop, if its bricked its binned as no one going to fix it. Its a throw away bit of tech like a phone, it serves its purpose then is replaced.

@ahaimes6320 Год назад

What is your proof that this will not last as long as an Intel machine? You should not make random statements with no data to back them up. Could it be your biased view of Apple?

@Luke-tx5qw Год назад

@Chopper153 Год назад

8:05 There's a reason why Apple has done this in M2 SKUs. A 256 GB NAND has higher TBW than an equivalent 128 GB chip. That's why it'll take more time before failure (possibly after the warranty expires). M1 macs with 8GB memory are notorious for failing SSDs (since lots of swap is used even in daily use).
