Did anyone actually watch the video? Like I’m sure as shit not, but wondering if anyone else did. Guessing no scrolling through the comments.

at this point i dont care about apple products.

Git gud at smd soldering dingdongs

I have m2 max provided by work. I would never pay for this piece of shit with great battery life.... if only out IT supported Linux, I would switch to framework in no time!

They really did it again huh

kinda sucks that no one makes hardware as good as Apple. with other laptops, there's always some sort of compromise. I have a ThinkPad and the keyboard is great, the screen is great, but the speakers are complete dogshit and the trackpad isn't all that good.

Playing devil advocate here. I owned second hand entry level first-gen MacBook Pro Retina that I bought in 2014. Still using it as my main laptop up until 2021 when I gave it to my nieces. On paper, It doesn't have good repairability so-so specs, everything glued also, but it still working very well, battery still can last more than 4 hours, every apps still run reasonably smooth and dare I said fast.

On the other hand, my spouse bought a brand new ZenBook a year later, it has a bit better repairability, battery and ram are "easily" replaceable, and it have better specs, but the battery dies 3 years ago. Even when the battery still alive, the laptop is very unoptimized causing the fan ran all the time, consuming more electricity, and over time it becomes very sluggish. So now, it's been hiding under closet now since maybe 4 years ago.

So I asked, what the use of repairability if at the end the component break easily. Sure you can replace it, but it just going to create more trash at the end. It's also unoptimized so it use more energy. I take one hardened optimized laptop that can last longer versus one that can be user repairable easily but unoptimized, energy hungry, and easily break component.
