Lost it at "f.u module" - best pun even
Those of us who bought Mac Studios last year found out about that one the hard way.
I literally laughed out loud--thanks, Sam!
Upgrade to the F.U, I laughed for like 10 minutes. Thanks Sam✌🏽😂
😂
Laughed so hard at the F.U. model I had to watch it twice!
"f.u module" should be trademarked.
am working on it :) it's genius ... bar
I was taking a crapper when I saw it. Definitely fitting... better than that socket.
Exactly 😂😂😂
😂 *****
I wouldn't be surprised if all the M4 chips had 32GB RAM and they just disabled some for lower end models via firmware.
Coming soon: RAM as a subscription service. Don't want to pay for all 32GB of RAM? No problem! Just choose the cheaper subscription and they'll go in and conveniently disable all of the RAM you bought, but don't "need."
_[Cancellation fee is also $200]_
Nah it's just binning if anything
@Alsry1 the RAM looks like it is just separate chips soldered to the CPU substrate, so those chips would be binned before they got to apple.
Delete this. Dont give them ideas 💀@@pirojfmifhghek566
@pirojfmifhghek566 don't even say that. Some AI is gonna be scanning youtube comments, add yours to it's data, and then spit it back at some executive.
Worst part is, the 32gb costing 400€ is on top of the already paid for 16gb, so its 400€ for another 16 gigs, which in ddr5 is around 50 bucks
Indeed, farking scam!
Their pricing strategy puts me off the brand more and more to be completely honest.
Although as a matter of fact, that extra bucks you paid for actually goes to the memory itself being the speed of your graphics card memory. But not much usual computation needs *that* memory speed, so while it is not a scam, you still paid the extra dollars for something you don't need
But boot disk pricing? Get the hell outta here apple :D
When they started soldering the ram in 2012 I saw the writing on the wall. That was the last time I ever bought anything from Apple. If it weren't for the RAM being upgradable, that little macbook pro would've been decorating a landfill by 2016. It only had 4GB in it when I got it. That was pitiful even by 2012 standards.
Yeah, I'm done with apple products. Their prices have always been a little gougey, but at least a savvy consumer could work around it back in the day. Not anymore. It's a hostile ecosystem. It ain't even that good as a fashion statement because it makes you look like a sucker.
@@pirojfmifhghek566 The sad thing is, more and more laptop PC manufacturers also solder the RAM now (and storage too sometimes).
The people that buy apple at these prices honestly deserve to get ripped off at this point. This is an abusive relationship
Did someone say abu yusuf?
you wouldn’t buy Apple products if they were priced more realistically. if that happened, you would probably say that they would be selling junk which would be another form of abuse. Apple haters will make sure of that.
They are just idiots really. At some point in the distant past I could just about justify spending a premium on getting Apple stuff, but that ended in about 2013/14 when you could no longer easily upgrade your Mac with industry standard components. Now they are just more expensive for 'lifestyle' reasons to appeal to the ignorant wealthy.
so you are saying if someone is in an abusive relationship they deserve the abuse?
@danispringer You know exactly what I'm implying. Apple's prices for computers are based on popularity not quality of parts. 999 for a stand is insane. Anyone willing to pay that has no financial literacy regardless if you can afford it. Same can be said for the price of video cards for PC they're rip offs
to be fair amd cpu that costs 10k has 196 cores if apple math was used on this it would probably cost more than the US gold reserve
Yea all thoes hype exprnsive chips are for stuff Like labs, Ai learning, film editing
Overall hige companies and not singular people
@@kleszczoros4885 AI or film rendering use graphic cards.
@@jeanmartin963 Ok AI preferes GPU but rendering is still more on the CPU
And eather way when you go to thoes huge scales with super powerfull gpus (sometimes even in SLI) you need a crazy powerfull CPU to match it up
@@kleszczoros4885 they are basically used in severs
The F.U module, truly hilarious.
Makes me think of Austin Powers when he met those asian twin girls at that club 😂😂 there are some clips from that scene here on youtube 😍😍
If Apple commercials are honest
Yup! I agree but I still give apple my money.
I think he already done that
Whyyyyy? You see you're getting ripped off and go "hmmm I'm feeling like getting ripped off right now! Let's go!"?
@@Timely-ud4rm So you're willing to pay MORE than what other computers does the same for less? Sorry I don't give money to scam artists like apple. I build my own PC and MUCH CHEAPER price.
@@hhds113 My mac mini actually runs faster than custom pc I had it being ryzen 7 7800X3D. I basically spent the same on the mac mini as my old pc 1.3k with education savings since im in college. only down side is the gpu is slightly less powerful but for what it is I could play fallout 4 just fine. Im not a gamer so I don't really give a shit the gpu is enough. just personal preference, spend your money and I wont judge and I spend my money how I want you you don't judge your money your decision.
you forgot that a 4gb ram on Apple is equivalent to 2TB ram on windows, according to Apple
And the 8K 2h long video on apple just consumes 16 KB of Storage, i know it, i asked an apple fanboy, he must be credible.
"That's just incredible" and "You're *insert action* it wrong" get me everytime 😂
"The ALL NEW iWhatever!"
B... Y... B... and pink.
Legendary, Sam! 🤣🤣🤣
Anybody who tries to recycle old computers knows just how terrible "planned obsolescence" is for the environment. Thank you for calling them out!
Mate, what’s funny is that most people would not care if they were cheap.
On top of that most of those “so called upgradable” laptops last less than MacBooks, for various reasons.
The world is florked every way you look at it.
It’s exhausting.
B-b-b-but...they wrapped it in PAPER!! That's recyclable !!
Is a different way of looking at it. Apple look at making it so that the machine can be recycled as opposed to being parts swapped out and the parts use and becoming “triggers broom” having 4 handles and 3 brushes.
2:03 this is so funny because in Algeria someone in the state mistranslated this as "sheep bars" it was a scandal in the hole country
I would've made the joke about the genius bars, but it's just too cheap and easy.
@@aebisdecunter Sheeple bars.
hole country
@@Gl_3tch XD typo but ig they say hole country in darija
@Gl_3tch plus it's so true! 🤣
All your videos end the same way. I'm laughing and then mutter "bastards" under my breathe.
Imagine a world where Apple actually operated like a normal computer company, or I should say, the way computer companies other than Apple operated in the 2010's. And then you could actually buy an Apple computer and not feel like you just committed a sin.
@@sfoldy Define "normal". Its normal to get screwed over whether its Apple, Ms, Oracle, AWS, HP etc.
@@sfoldy People should seriously think about no buying Apple products.
"I only have Apple Intelligence... I look for this Pro word on it" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣epic

If Apple’s Prices Were More Realistic, I would not have to my wallet to see what Apple product I can afford. I did and I settled for Apple Juice!
I just went Linux. At this point, screw Apple Maths and Screw Microsoft Spying. I am actually replacing my last Apple product (iPhone) this week to a degoogled Android phone. I'm done with all this BS now.

@@williamepps9519this is the way. Although, the trade off is convenience. Most people don’t want to give that up.
@@williamepps9519 Same here. What a nightmare.
The Chip and Gryffindor (both) killed me :))))) this is again, so good!
Apple is basically Disney of the tech world.
Love the hypocrisy of the box made of recycled paper but forcing the user to buy a new machine.
300% markup, not just 100% more. that’s the apple tax. Yeah ssd prices
actually it is way more than 300%
Jack Tramiel, the guy behind Commodore, said to never have a mark up bigger than 100%. He was a self-made multimillionaire.
Many people prefer to buy a cheap base version. They don't need an upgrade. If Apple were to lower the price of memory, they would have to raise the price of the base versions. They don't make money on computers. It's just a hobby.
@@kaczan3 Unfortunately when Jack became head of Atari after he was ousted at Commodore, they kept all their cool chips and hardware and the Atari ST didn't have much. Although it was a lot like the Mac at a quarter of the price (hence the nickname Jackintosh). A lot of musicians used them that couldn't justify Macintosh prices. I used to have an ST, back when PC's were MSDOS and Win3.1 only. Eventually Windows caught up after 6 or 7 years (and I don't mean Win95/98).
Tramiel contributed a lot to computers back in his time. Pity both Commodore and Atari came to an end. Who knows what the PC landscape would like like now if they were still around.
I would be honored if anyone would like to wish this old man a happy birthday. 92 and still going strong.
Happy Birthday. :D And a Hug! :P
Happy birthday Sir! Cross a 100!! Warm hugs to you!!!
Happy birthday mate. Cheers to good health
HBD.2U!
Happy Birthday good sir. Remind us when you turn 100! Cheers from Australia. 🌸 🐨 🐚
If the prices were realistic, how would Apple users maintain their sense of superiority?
LMFAO. A bit like PCMR types?
That’s an astute observation, mate.
Cheers.
They think their overpriced toys are better when it breaks just as fast if something goes wrong. Crapple will gladly sell a new one instead of repairing it for affordable price to "save" the environment.
@@estiennetaylor1260you can say that for any phone brand but since your just another android fanboy whos going against these crapple fanboys you dont know it.

@@scrollexdestiny im typing this on a s22. Also “android fanboy” means all of those phones brands or most of them and btw you also misspelled the word “spotted” misreading or misunderstanding a comment and misspelling one of the easiest words ever doesn’t make you look good in an argument kiddo.
Love how they can’t sell the Apple Vision Pro because no one wants it, but rather than lower the price, they’d rather just toss them in storage forever.
Wouldn’t be the first time. There’s a story floating around out about an old Mac reseller that had a great market buying and reselling a certain Mac, then Apple came in, took his stock and destroyed it.
2:50 "Pink" 😂😂😂😂😂😂 you just broke my sense of humor 😂😂😂

Saying you care for the environment while releasing a new device each year is diabolical
This is why switched to linux and PC hardware for my needs!
It's funny because it's true. Apple Tax is high
I'm always slightly giggling when people point out that apple products are reasonably priced for their quality.
My head goes, yeah, reasonably priced buys you a 5 Billion Dollar HQ. Makes absolute sense.
Was just checking your channel. And now I got what I was looking for - a new parody! Thank you
Right from the start way back in the late seventies Apple's products were expensive, which is why I've avoided them like the plaque ever since.
We're still paying a Lisa levy to pay for the 2700 Lisa comptuers they dumped in a landfill in 1989.
The box is not recyclable, because no one ever throws off the box.
What??!! RAM really costs less than $200/MB?!? But it’s SPECIAL RAM!!
Yup. It’s exactly the same with the word “Special” written on it.
The “I have apple intelligence” joke was funny
I don’t think Apple is expecting people to upgrade their computers every year.
OMG!!! How come you make videos everyday!!!! It's a wild speed. And also the awesome video quality, nothing boring, every video is interesting .
Yes...just let the thermal paste drip on the socket....
I think I know what the extra salt & pepper costs in the Apple Infinite Loop cafeterias. $200 and $200!
Love your videos m8 just think though, apple are saving the planet by not giving you headphones or a charger these days.
Apple is glad to sell you that charger they took away for another $25.
This is the only channel where I play new video always right away when I see it, because its short, I always laugh and Im always so glad that I have never given any money to apple.
"I only have apple intelligence" was a low blow HAHAHAHAHAHAH LOVED THAT!
Terrible pricing and terrible for the environment - that's Apple!
but great for the shareholders.
and in what kind of a world would we live if shareholders weren't allowed to screw over the normal people.
The ultimate in Apple double speak/hypocrisy, we're no longer going to include a charger in your phone to help save the environment, but if you want to upgrade your computer you have to buy a new one and send the old one to a landfill.
The answer is easy, a greedy corporation with greedy stockholders.
Ah yes, Apple’s ‘Actual Reality’-a world where upgrades don’t magically cost $200, and we can swap parts like it’s 2009. But let’s be honest, why would Apple ever give us removable RAM or a standard SSD when they can charge us an extra grand for proprietary modules? I mean, sure, AMD’s chips might score ‘158,000 points for Gryffindor,’ but who needs flexibility or affordability when we have paper packaging to save the environment, right? Truly revolutionary. Can’t wait for Apple to start charging us $200 just to think about upgrades.
Sometimes I wonder why it’s even legal? I mean, it feels like a con. It really does.
One thing that we can depend on. Apple over pricing everything they sell.
Apple pays $9 for 8gb modules.
1:29 I'm sorry I can't help it, that's a Mini PCIe/mSATA card, not an M.2 card
3:53 points to gryffindor ???
i love your videos you are too good
It's ~that~ SAMTIME of the year.
I mainly laugh at their green policy, they removed the charger, headphones and the box is small and supposedly for the sake of the environment :D It's just for bigger profits and they present themselves as really keen to recycle but the false goal is to sell as many products as possible at all costs even if they are exactly the same as the previous ones, and on top of that new updates after new product release will deliberately slow down older models and make the cameras worse so that users buy new ones, what's green about that? It the biggest waste of all times in name of profit.
That clip of Grandpa Tim looking up and around with a bemused expression is priceless.
Wait a minute. Sam is a Mr. funny pants
Hi Sam. This is Ethans Dad, David form Millicent. You are my number 1 favourite channel atm. Keep up the awesome.
I didn't have this laugh for a long time - great stuff👋
Im a iPhone user since 2009 and im content overall. But when it comes down to computing, a Mac is a pure CLOWN FIESTA regarding the price. I can build a PC which is 4-5 times faster and more efficient than a Mac with 1/3 of its price. Mindblowing.
Great 👍 video Sam. Subscribed!
Nobody was ever forced to buy a Mac, and I don't.
The idea that doubling the capacity the second time would also cost a mere 200 bucks is what is really unrealistic here. It’s 200 for the first and 600 for the second, obviously.
If Apple M-chips could be swapped out, you can technically grab a broken M4 mac mini from a dumpster and upgrade your macbook for free!
the chip at 3:15 looks so tasty
200 dollars for gryffindor
For people who still buy apple products, HOW ARE YOU GUYS STILL NOT BROKE
This is so good, I'm suprised you don't have milions of subs.

@@whohan779nah, vista was a whole different breed of awful. No one remembers it fondly, cause it was unstable af, a security nightmare and just generally bad. So was windows 8, but for different reasons. 7 was ok at least.
Those are pratically equal
Funny thing is, the SSD slot will work with every NVMe/M.2 I've tried in it. The RAM though,,, just sad. But they M4 macmini has one great purpose. Upgrading my iMac G4
Apple's laptop form-factor hasn't really changed over the years. It should be a reasonable thing to swap in a new logic board instead of replacing the entire macbook.
They want you to buy a whole new macbook to save the environment 🙃
What I find amazing about apple is that their MacBook Pro is aimed at creatives, yet they only provide enough SSD to work with approximately 19 minutes of 4k ProRes footage! 😂😂 Legendary!
Keep working Sam!
Amazing work bro
On Mac videos, I say planned obsolescence; and the fan-boys loose their minds.
your videos are the best videos on youtube
I get why they don't sell it with the option to upgrade it yourself, it's a valid strategy in my opinion to have them lure you to get a completely new product because one piece of tech is getting slow. But the prices on the upgrades is outragous. Why is it that expensive?
A $9 stand? Even a washcloth is more expensive than that
Chips will always be expensive due to minor upgrades that give a huge boost. You'll never see chip manufacturers selling reasonable. They make more in bulk from the orders they get.
I love those actual reality goggles when I go snowboarding 😅
Well, apple need to make money elsewhere when people dont buy every new Ipohone model :P
The "F.U" LMAO I'm ROLLIN' over here. SO DAMN FUNNY!!!!!
Sadly mostly correct.
And the main reason I never bought another Apple computer after my Mac Mini Late 2012.
I really wanted those M1, but F.U too Apple.
Same here. I have my MB Pro 2015 stuck on Mojave because my old non-subscription Adobe suite would cease to work. Meanwhile, my Windows computer sitting next to my MacBook can run the 2001 program on Win 11 without any problem. Not buying any Apple soon.
@@oldadajbych8123 I still play for my Strategy channel, Star Trek The Next Generation, Birth of the Federation. A game released in the late 90s. Sure I use DXWND to get it to run in a window, but still. I know what you mean.
You may not be able to upgrade the SSD or the CPU, but at least you can download more RAM
Keep going Sam. Keep going. 😂😂😂
Best vid !! These su,summaries are great for those that need a red pill, or a blue one?
If upgrades costed $199, no apple fanboy would complain about a $100 upgrade :) :) :)
To be fair, the reason why Macs are so fast in the first place is because of unified RAM, which is not possible with normal pc ram. But it doesnt cost anywhere close to 200 dollars
they just pulled the $200 down the spreadsheet rows. Saved time.
Sad but real, that’s why majority of IT professionals always stay away from Apple.
honestly doesnt matter, let people pay those prices, they chose the company
4:28 So Apple actually released iMac M2 😍😍 just the fact that Samtime was the only lucky Apple friend to receive it 🥰🥰
