In a good number of countries, the costliest Macbook pro costs more than the annual income of a person... There's no attribute which gives me a hint that Apple cares about the world... It certainly knows how to act though. Plus look at MacOS's usability (in terms of software UX design)... It's barely as user friendly as Windows and Android... It's 2024, while Apple launched "Apple Intelligent", their OS' aren't intelligent enough to know when a user hits Return (or Enter in Windows) it means the user wants to click the primary button in a prompt..(they are certainly good at naming things different, if not properly). Apple doesn't know how to select multiple files in a folder using just the keyboard and not the touchpad/mouse/mice.

I love mac os, because of logic pro, but these failures make me rethink hackintoshing.

The swap can be disabled. Google search - how to disable ram swapping on an m1 macbook

Very good explanation😊😊

MacOS Sonoma is using about 1GB SWAP Memory being Idle, and my Macbook has 18GB of RAM and barely gets to 8GB of usage. There's something wrong on how MacOS manages this SWAP, when anything gets close to de 40% of RAM usage, the SWAP kicks in immediately.

Just watched this! How hard was it to do the mod? Did you also replace the 4 (?) RAM chips for more memory? Thank you

😮

Just don’t buy one. They killed 32-bit libraries as an extremely heavy-handed solution to the 2038 problem so half of your steam games will break even with that Proton thing making it usable outside of Windows; as it is they can’t run anything more demanding than Minecraft without exploding in a fiery inferno. Best way to play games on a Mac is to use it as a mousepad for your Windows/Linux rig

Can RAM be changed and repaired if it's faulty or does the entire logic board need a replacement?

I only use my internal ssd for the OS and apps, all my data intensive tasks happen on external disks.

No thanks I'll stick with what i have 😮😮😮😮😮

Is this issue also on the Mac Mini and iMac?

amazing video, i have a question, should we also disconnect the magsafe and HDMI cables too? when not in use

I have the basic model macpro 2013 with D300 GPU's, i use it for gaming on windows via bootcamp. If i could find a D700 gpu which side should i change A or B.? Can you have just one gpu installed?

Pipi bus

Too much work just for ssd great scam apple

iBoff, is it possible to solder 32GB RAM to an A1398 15" MBP from 2015?

can you upgrade the cpu also ?? since it been soldered to the motherboard ?

Awesome explanation. Thanks. Got subscription

I have an M1 max and a m3 max - can i swap the m1 max logic board with the m3 max? I want to keep the files and OS from the m1 and move it to m3.....

Old intel macs will remain king for a long time. You can get a maxed out mid 2015 MBP and use a 6900 XT eGPU to basically make it as fast as current MBPs

Are you capable of upgrading my 1TB m3 pro to 2TB?

150 Tb ×1024 = 1,53,600 gb is much more than enough in my life time to copy files 😂😂

I have AppleCare+ I think I’ll be fine

Can i marry your brain

Now i will only yes hhd thanks for information

Very cool videos guys, thanks a lot !!!

Apple really treats their customers like 💩 while charging them top money 🤮. Samsung is joining in too and I’m just over it

Planned obsolescence. There’s a chip that goes bad and send full power to it burning the ssd

Troubling that a MOSFET can be defective in some units or is it the heat that the trash can generates the cause?

What are the values for the decoupling caps for the M.2 slot ?

That's so green and good for the earth

Great video and funny also lol

I first said to my SO, do you smell something burning? Then quickly unplugged it. Luckily quick enough that it only damaged that port. It isn't that bad living with just two USB-C ports

This did happen to me on my M1 base model

I just bought a used M1 macbook pro and I was just wondering: is that a way to avoid shorts in it?

Apple being apple.. making upgrades and repairs impossible, illegal or infeasible. If there's a way to screw customers out of money, apple will do it. How do they keep getting away with being so scummy and environmentally unfriendly?

They need to make laws for consumers right to repair

it's important to understand TBW are very conservative, the MacBook in this video had exceeded its TBW massively, by nearly double all while maintaining 80% SSD health, if you're buying a MacBook to use it like an iPad and you just want the larger screen, physical keyboard/trackpad and just prefer using them to navigate an OS then a 8GB Base MacBook will do you just fine, if you want the MacBook to last you "forever" then get AppleCare on the yearly subscription and have peace at mind it can break whenever and you'll get it repaired.

DriveDx shows 413TBW for my 250GB SSD drive (MacBook pro 2014) and it says that lifetime left is good.

Seems like capacitor rot is still a thing after that late 90's early 00's debacle. At that time almost all pc brands used crappy electrolytes witch resulted in a lot of broken pc's but even vcr's stereo equipment an so on.

Hi I have MacBook Air (13-inch, Early 2015) 4Gb upgrade to 16gb Can you do that for me?

Alternative title: Why buying a MacBook is a bad idea.

What on earth is up with all these capacitors.

Brilliant video

emotional damage... 🤣

My 2018 Mac mini nand not detect in p13 program what shud I do 😮

Bro is cleverer than Einstein

Does the Mac Studio also use this?
