like","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":533.279,"end_s":540.2,"text":"it's trivial to get much further they've built this thing

was uh","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":614.44,"end_s":620.839,"text":"have a look inside and see what the main board looks like yeah let's just let's","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":618.64,"end_s":625.68,"text":"not take it off yeah I'm not going to go any further than this I just wanted

of","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":659.92,"end_s":666.12,"text":"like this was actually a little bit more trivial to get into than I expected but","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":663.839,"end_s":671.399,"text":"it does require you to that power supply is dangerous a f the uninitiated

mini no Studio definitely Studio that's what it says right there Mac Studio this is something that's been a long time coming people have been anticipating a Mac Pro Mini for quite some time now and well this is it it's even got like this little Pro style handle here like the Mac Pro and the pro display xdr do what is well I've had a delivery these are these are the peripherals that go with it I'll talk about these later they cost a lot they cost a lot of money but they're black and silver the Mac Studio is the first Mac that I know of that has front panel like actually front panel IO like the Mac Pro had top IO that I guess technically would count but like this is the first like desktop desktop Mac that's meant to sit on your desk honestly it it's amazing that Apple held out this long because the SD card slot is something that the the Mac Mini really should have had for so long like Why didn't it have an SD card slot of course we're still uh on the USB type-c bandwagon these are USB hm are they four no they just say type-c so I think these are the USB 3 point whatever uh on the ultra version of this design these are Thunderbolt ports what is this packaging look at look at how this like apple what is this why why does it have Wings anyway enough complaining about the packaging let's continue oh it's one of these things so you just take this here you take get real good grip on it you don't have to do that it's stop all right let's get it out of here this this box okay props to Apple this is like the most one of the most complex cardboard boxes I've seen in a while I'm being asked to do this gracefully let's see if I can do that uh okay so it doesn't come that way even though it's creased this way see look at this it's creased in a really weird way what is Apple's packaging up to oo and it just Falls away that is chalky it's it's actually wow it actually is like a Mac Mini but bigger so we've got the Mac Mini or Mac Mini oh man it's going to take a while to get out of that habit so we got the Mac Studio we've already seen pretty much everything that there is to see um yep it's a big hunk of aluminum it's heavy it's got the SD card slots got the front us USB type-c got the rear Thunderbolt gigb Ethernet 10 GB Ethernet sorry Mickey Mouse USB type a HDMI and the headphone Port um I am led to to believe that it is possible to get this off I'm not quite sure how maybe I'll look into that later first we need a way to actually interact with this thing thankfully we have the official peripherals all get in here magic Trackpad magic keyboard do we have the Magic Mouse too yeah we do so these are environmentally friendly packaged this is not it's got a plastic condom on it thought we were over this apple you'll be delighted to know they give you actually a nice um braided lightning cable to type c this is how you charge your mouse how much does this mouse cost jonno 100 bucks so your $100 mouse that um is actually an ergonomic nightmare like I cramp up hard trying to use these things that's how you charge it let's get the trackpad out next the trackpad oh yeah I know $149 for the black trackpad how much is the regular trackpad now to be clear this does have the force touch feature so like it's got the haptic feedback so it's $20 more for a black trackpad like apple what are you doing but yeah like they could have made this more ergonomic with like a proper cable attachment point they could have made this bigger or something to justify that extra price you know Studio ofy it right and I'm I originally thought that this was unique to the new generation of peripherals as well soz I didn't think they had the the full size keyboard but apparently they do this is $200 I could break this over my knee I wouldn't actually I wouldn't even have to look how much this flexes this is it sucks because Apple has some cool technology in their keyboard like touch ID right here it's nice but it's not very rigid and also why why do we have these can we have like a like an Apple keyboard please like an actual like none none of the magic none of the magic just just give me the give me the Apple see I have respect for the things that Apple has done in the past that I see them capitalizing on now with products that are honestly not very good now that being said um I'm sure there are people who love this especially the lowprofile design I'm sure there are people who appreciate the fact that it feels the same as their MacBook or whatever but this is an ergonomic nightmare just like this is because it's so flat that basically in order to actually type on it you have to basically be mashing your desk H this wasn't supposed to be a review of this but I I just hate this so much and it doesn't even have any tilt or anything it's just the pads there you there you go yeah so Mac Studio let's see if we can take this thing apart but before that this uh that's the robots they're watching me solve something for dbrand okay so like what this oh so this is actually like is this supposed to be like an easy mode rub Rubik's Cube and I'm supposed to fail at it or something cuz that's kind of what's Happening ah man this okay this is making my brain hurt talking points while he's struggling real leather available now for all your not just cables cubes sorry cubes wow I am just fried thank you dbrand feels nice sure is sure does yeah you're supposed to visit dbrand.com shortlines he is short I'm not uh enter the code 5 foot one 5 foot one to get 15% off unless the video has been up for more than 15 minutes in which case the deal is over what maybe two people will ever get that discount code D BR basically you using me as the Implement for the this is what I had to do today all right jonno what do you say we turn this on no in the immortal words of Dave Jones from eev blog don't turn it on take it apart ah this is the softest aluminum in the world this thing just like being pushed this way to pry it open has mashed the aluminum good God I am assuming that this is in with Clips Perhaps it is all friction fit in which case I need to go around and I don't want to do that really not with these there's no screws is there or I don't think so unless there's screws under this oh I hate this oh I hate this what happened okay okay enough of it's come off now I can just peel it there is there is no excuse for why these screws had to be hidden under this aesthetic no clean design no this is unacceptable and in order to get into this this whole thing needs to be just destroyed and in order to replace it you just get another one of these basically well there's the internals I'm not going to like completely disassemble this thing I just want to see how far we can go look there's screws hidden under this little black tab as if anybody is ever going to see this this is probably because they're live these are the power supply screws these are going right down into metal that is conducting electricity why would you do this there's your power supply that's I think 380 WTS if I'm not mistaken it's pretty small they glued the crap out of it what's all this silicone crap I guess it's to keep the capacitors from moving but yeah these here uh these here contacts screws go through those they uh they touch these contacts down here that's where the power goes have fun all right I don't know how much further I want to go uh cuz it doesn't look like it's trivial to get much further they've built this thing in layers wait where are there in antenna points down there when this is the is that the hang on I need to get this out that is storage it has replaceable storage I'm pretty sure that's storage it's like not really marked what these chips are but I'm pretty sure they're an N flash it's possible if not likely that you'll be able to get replacement ssds for this that are potentially bigger faster more reliable wait there's a second storage slot so there's one over here and there's one right here they're both the same slot can I just point out how crap it is that we are expected to be impressed by that yeah it is pretty crap oh you know what I could probably take this Frame off I don't know how much further I want to I keep saying that I don't know how much further I want to go but I kind of do want to keep going I just want to get this cage off so I can see underneath it I'm not going to pull the cool off I'm not going to pull the main board out or anything like that I just want to see unobstructed the view of the board pull the cooler off the mostly what I wanted to do was uh have a look inside and see what the main board looks like yeah let's just let's not take it off yeah I'm not going to go any further than this I just wanted to get this plate out of the way um even though Jake's like ah do it or no balls yeah I'll do it after we've done our thermal testing because this one actually has a different cooler I think than the M1 Ultra version that's aluminum versus copper uh for today it'll just have to end here one thing I'm noticing as I'm kind of reassembling it a little bit here is that the I/O is actually very very modular like all of these are in boards and they're in their solid so it's actually pretty unlikely that you're going to ever act like end up breaking anything here and if you do it is replaceable so maybe not a repairability score of like this was actually a little bit more trivial to get into than I expected but it does require you to that power supply is dangerous a f the uninitiated yeah check this out that's how it goes in and that's how it connects you just you just screwed screw it down yep that's that's exactly how the uh the iMac Pro died that's that's the reason cuz they just that's their connection line voltage oh no that's no that's not line voltage 12 Vol or something yeah 12 Vol okay still still enough like current to really mess up your day yeah I wasn't expecting to get interrupted uh I was going to close it out so yeah line is go this real cool huh I don't know why that was Elvis but you know it's so salty right now I don't know why I'm okay I know why I'm salty this was way too like I mean I guess I should have my very first instinct was that there were screws under this thing but I was like no they couldn't possibly because that would require them to actually you know break it to get back in but apparently that's what Apple does now this killed you emotionally a little bit but you know what doesn't kill me emotionally ShortCircuit you should get subscribed we do all kinds of unboxings not all of them are like this not all of them have rage if you want another one with rage the LG Graham that I reviewed a little while ago that was pretty rage that was that was a different kind of video for me"}
