This is what most haters don't want to see, it's the attention to the little details that make people like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted December 22, 2016 As someone who generally likes apple, I pretty much agreed with everything said.

Posted December 22, 2016 I wasn't expecting a lot from this review initially after the RAM video about the MacBook Pro left a bad taste to me because of questionable methodology and gave a shoutout to a YouTube jerk with anger management issues. However, this review is actually quite fair and balanced. Linus highlighted the strengths and weaknesses unlike a lot of trashy people in this forum who just partakes in the Apple hate-wagon. It's good that Linus appreciates technology even if it's not for him. Although for me personally, I'm skipping Apple's 2016 MacBook Pro and wait for next year's refresh to hopefully fix the battery life. There is more that meets the eye I see the soul that is inside Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted December 22, 2016 Very well done review. I really appreciate the attention to detail in this that actually took aspects pointed out by other reviewers and even addressed the displayport thing that confused so many (Lol Louiss Rossman's struggle with it in his live review! ). As someone that grew up on Apple I have to say, the one thing I like about Macbooks is the superior support and my ability to trust that they'll still be intact years later(when compared to Windows laptops in general). However, chargers are another story >.>' . In fact, my Mom to this day still uses a Macbook with a HD and 2GB DDR2 in it. It is slow when just starting Word and has crashed multiple times to the spinning wheel of death but it's still functioning and has never needed repair! (She just needs $$ to upgrade at this point >.<) @nicklmg would you guys consider doing a series of videos on 'a day in the life of [insert LMG employee name here]' going through their routine('A Day In The Life Of Dennis' lol!)?

Posted December 23, 2016 Despite the 13 inch not being a genuine "Pro" I think it does what it intends to do well, its just a slightly faster MacBook Air with a really nice screen. Which realistically is what most consumers want anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highly doubt it. If we had a vlog channel then maybe? But that's not currently in the plans, sorry And to be completely honest it would be very boring most of the time. "I came to work, I had a sales call, I drew up a proposal, I went home," "I came to work, I edited a video, Premiere crashed 8 times, I went home" and so on and so forth lol. It's a lot more like a "real job" than most people imagine as we're certainly on the more "corporate" end when it comes to YouTube channels.

Yeah, I expected it to be at least a bit more exciting than that! So, one final thing that's kinda beating a dead horse at this point(i've posted quite a few times about this on the page of the album itself without any response)... there's supposed to be 10 files(as advertised in the video for it) in your Christmas Album you made a while back, but only 8 are there and it has never been fixed.
