WEBVTT 00:00:00.799 --> 00:00:06.560 Mac Pro oh sorry sorry studio uh mini no 00:00:04.279 --> 00:00:10.840 Studio definitely Studio that's what it says right there Mac Studio this is 00:00:09.160 --> 00:00:18.640 something that's been a long time coming people have been anticipating a Mac Pro 00:00:14.320 --> 00:00:20.080 Mini for quite some time now and well 00:00:18.640 --> 00:00:25.880 this is it it's even got like this little Pro style handle here like the 00:00:22.560 --> 00:00:29.080 Mac Pro and the pro display xdr do what 00:00:25.880 --> 00:00:30.240 is well I've had a delivery these are 00:00:29.080 --> 00:00:37.640 these are the peripherals that go with it I'll talk about these later they cost a lot they cost a lot of 00:00:33.840 --> 00:00:40.520 money but they're black and silver the 00:00:37.640 --> 00:00:46.960 Mac Studio is the first Mac that I know of that has front panel like actually 00:00:43.480 --> 00:00:48.960 front panel IO like the Mac Pro had top 00:00:46.960 --> 00:00:53.120 IO that I guess technically would count but like this is the first like desktop 00:00:51.280 --> 00:00:59.440 desktop Mac that's meant to sit on your desk honestly it it's amazing that Apple 00:00:56.280 --> 00:01:02.280 held out this long because the SD card 00:00:59.440 --> 00:01:07.159 slot is something that the the Mac Mini really should have had for so long like 00:01:04.640 --> 00:01:14.040 Why didn't it have an SD card slot of course we're still uh on the USB type-c 00:01:10.040 --> 00:01:15.520 bandwagon these are USB hm are they four 00:01:14.040 --> 00:01:23.079 no they just say type-c so I think these are the USB 3 point whatever uh on the 00:01:19.600 --> 00:01:25.520 ultra version of this design these are 00:01:23.079 --> 00:01:30.840 Thunderbolt ports what is this packaging look at look at how this like apple what 00:01:28.000 --> 00:01:34.560 is this why why does it have Wings anyway enough complaining about the 00:01:32.479 --> 00:01:38.720 packaging let's continue oh it's one of these things so 00:01:37.000 --> 00:01:44.000 you just take this here you take get real good grip on 00:01:40.159 --> 00:01:44.000 it you don't have to do that 00:01:44.439 --> 00:01:47.439 it's 00:01:47.479 --> 00:01:56.479 stop all right let's get it out of here this this box okay props to Apple this 00:01:53.600 --> 00:02:01.719 is like the most one of the most complex cardboard boxes I've seen in a while I'm 00:01:59.079 --> 00:02:07.520 being asked to do this gracefully let's see if I can do that uh 00:02:05.880 --> 00:02:11.080 okay so it doesn't come that way even though it's creased this way see look at 00:02:09.160 --> 00:02:16.040 this it's creased in a really weird way what is Apple's packaging up 00:02:13.040 --> 00:02:16.040 to 00:02:16.400 --> 00:02:20.280 oo and it just Falls 00:02:20.879 --> 00:02:30.200 away that is chalky it's it's actually wow it 00:02:27.800 --> 00:02:35.720 actually is like a Mac Mini but bigger so we've got the Mac Mini or Mac 00:02:33.680 --> 00:02:40.080 Mini oh man it's going to take a while to get out of that habit so we got the 00:02:37.440 --> 00:02:44.360 Mac Studio we've already seen pretty much everything that there is to see um 00:02:42.599 --> 00:02:49.920 yep it's a big hunk of aluminum it's heavy it's got the SD card slots got the 00:02:46.920 --> 00:02:52.480 front us USB type-c got the rear 00:02:49.920 --> 00:02:59.959 Thunderbolt gigb Ethernet 10 GB Ethernet sorry Mickey Mouse USB type a HDMI and 00:02:56.760 --> 00:03:01.599 the headphone Port um I am led to to 00:02:59.959 --> 00:03:06.959 believe that it is possible to get this off I'm not quite sure how maybe I'll 00:03:03.879 --> 00:03:08.720 look into that later first we need a way 00:03:06.959 --> 00:03:14.200 to actually interact with this thing thankfully we have the official 00:03:11.080 --> 00:03:16.360 peripherals all get in here magic 00:03:14.200 --> 00:03:22.159 Trackpad magic keyboard do we have the Magic Mouse too yeah we do so these are 00:03:20.360 --> 00:03:26.440 environmentally friendly packaged this is not it's got a 00:03:23.840 --> 00:03:33.200 plastic condom on it thought we were over this apple you'll be delighted to 00:03:28.760 --> 00:03:36.720 know they give you actually a nice um 00:03:33.200 --> 00:03:38.239 braided lightning cable to type c this 00:03:36.720 --> 00:03:45.480 is how you charge your mouse how much does this mouse cost jonno 100 bucks so 00:03:41.319 --> 00:03:47.840 your $100 mouse that um is actually an 00:03:45.480 --> 00:03:51.840 ergonomic nightmare like I cramp up hard trying to use these things that's how 00:03:49.840 --> 00:03:56.360 you charge it let's get the trackpad out next the 00:03:53.400 --> 00:04:00.680 trackpad oh yeah I know $149 for the black trackpad how much is 00:03:58.879 --> 00:04:05.400 the regular trackpad now to be clear this does have the force touch feature 00:04:03.040 --> 00:04:10.319 so like it's got the haptic feedback so it's $20 more for a black trackpad like 00:04:08.239 --> 00:04:14.480 apple what are you doing but yeah like they could have made this more ergonomic 00:04:11.959 --> 00:04:19.479 with like a proper cable attachment point they could have made this bigger 00:04:17.079 --> 00:04:25.440 or something to justify that extra price you know Studio ofy it right and I'm I 00:04:23.199 --> 00:04:29.960 originally thought that this was unique to the new generation of peripherals as 00:04:27.880 --> 00:04:33.600 well soz I didn't think they had the the full size keyboard but apparently they 00:04:32.039 --> 00:04:37.800 do this is $200 I could break this over my knee I 00:04:36.639 --> 00:04:44.639 wouldn't actually I wouldn't even have to look how much this flexes this is it sucks because Apple 00:04:42.880 --> 00:04:51.199 has some cool technology in their keyboard like touch ID right here it's 00:04:47.160 --> 00:04:53.039 nice but it's not very rigid and also 00:04:51.199 --> 00:04:58.199 why why do we have these can we have like a like an Apple 00:04:55.680 --> 00:05:02.759 keyboard please like an actual like none none of the magic none of the magic just 00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:09.520 just give me the give me the Apple see I have respect for the things that Apple 00:05:05.400 --> 00:05:12.320 has done in the past that I see them 00:05:09.520 --> 00:05:17.479 capitalizing on now with products that are honestly not very good now that 00:05:14.840 --> 00:05:21.560 being said um I'm sure there are people who love this especially the lowprofile 00:05:19.520 --> 00:05:25.880 design I'm sure there are people who appreciate the fact that it feels the 00:05:23.160 --> 00:05:30.960 same as their MacBook or whatever but this is an ergonomic nightmare just like 00:05:27.720 --> 00:05:33.120 this is because it's so flat that 00:05:30.960 --> 00:05:37.319 basically in order to actually type on it you have to basically be mashing your 00:05:35.280 --> 00:05:40.800 desk H this wasn't supposed to be a review of this but I I just hate this so 00:05:39.560 --> 00:05:45.280 much and it doesn't even have any tilt or anything it's just the pads there you 00:05:43.280 --> 00:05:47.840 there you go yeah so Mac Studio let's see if we can take this thing apart but 00:05:46.759 --> 00:05:53.720 before that this uh that's the robots they're 00:05:51.520 --> 00:05:58.199 watching me solve something for dbrand okay so like what this oh so this is 00:05:56.880 --> 00:06:01.240 actually like is this supposed to be like an easy mode rub Rubik's Cube and 00:05:59.880 --> 00:06:06.199 I'm supposed to fail at it or something cuz that's kind of what's Happening ah 00:06:04.039 --> 00:06:10.280 man this okay this is making my brain hurt talking points while he's 00:06:08.160 --> 00:06:15.120 struggling real leather available now for all your not just cables cubes sorry 00:06:13.120 --> 00:06:21.520 cubes wow I am just fried thank you dbrand feels nice sure is sure does yeah 00:06:19.199 --> 00:06:27.160 you're supposed to visit dbrand.com shortlines he is short I'm not uh enter 00:06:24.880 --> 00:06:33.319 the code 5 foot one 5 foot one to get 15% off unless the 00:06:31.479 --> 00:06:40.120 video has been up for more than 15 minutes in which case the deal is over 00:06:35.960 --> 00:06:44.639 what maybe two people will ever get that 00:06:40.120 --> 00:06:47.759 discount code D BR basically you using 00:06:44.639 --> 00:06:49.919 me as the Implement for the this is what 00:06:47.759 --> 00:06:55.000 I had to do today all right jonno what do you say we turn this on no in the 00:06:52.680 --> 00:07:01.520 immortal words of Dave Jones from eev blog don't turn it on take it 00:06:58.000 --> 00:07:05.520 apart ah this is the softest aluminum in 00:07:01.520 --> 00:07:08.560 the world this thing just like being 00:07:05.520 --> 00:07:12.199 pushed this way to pry it open has 00:07:08.560 --> 00:07:15.280 mashed the aluminum good God I am 00:07:12.199 --> 00:07:18.000 assuming that this is in with Clips 00:07:15.280 --> 00:07:23.720 Perhaps it is all friction fit in which case I need to go around and I don't 00:07:19.919 --> 00:07:25.919 want to do that really not with these 00:07:23.720 --> 00:07:32.680 there's no screws is there or I don't think so unless there's screws under 00:07:27.879 --> 00:07:35.400 this oh I hate this oh I hate this what 00:07:32.680 --> 00:07:38.400 happened okay okay enough of it's come off now I can just peel 00:07:41.160 --> 00:07:48.680 it there is there is no excuse for why 00:07:45.479 --> 00:07:52.599 these screws had to be hidden under this 00:07:48.680 --> 00:07:54.520 aesthetic no clean design no this is 00:07:52.599 --> 00:07:59.639 unacceptable and in order to get into this this whole thing needs to be just 00:07:57.159 --> 00:08:06.199 destroyed and in order to replace it you just get another one of these basically 00:08:03.360 --> 00:08:10.199 well there's the internals I'm not going to like completely disassemble this 00:08:07.759 --> 00:08:14.159 thing I just want to see how far we can go look there's screws hidden under this 00:08:12.199 --> 00:08:17.879 little black tab as if anybody is ever going to see this this is probably 00:08:15.599 --> 00:08:23.840 because they're live these are the power supply screws these are going right down 00:08:20.720 --> 00:08:26.400 into metal that is conducting 00:08:23.840 --> 00:08:30.919 electricity why would you do this there's your power supply that's I think 00:08:28.159 --> 00:08:35.519 380 WTS if I'm not mistaken it's pretty small they glued the crap out of it 00:08:33.080 --> 00:08:40.880 what's all this silicone crap I guess it's to keep the capacitors from moving 00:08:38.080 --> 00:08:46.839 but yeah these here uh these here contacts screws go through those they uh 00:08:44.480 --> 00:08:50.880 they touch these contacts down here that's where the power goes have fun all 00:08:49.720 --> 00:08:56.080 right I don't know how much further I want to go uh cuz it doesn't look like 00:08:53.279 --> 00:09:00.200 it's trivial to get much further they've built this thing in 00:08:57.800 --> 00:09:06.480 layers wait where are there in antenna points down there when this is the is 00:09:03.000 --> 00:09:10.160 that the hang on I need to get this out 00:09:06.480 --> 00:09:12.640 that is storage it has replaceable 00:09:10.160 --> 00:09:17.760 storage I'm pretty sure that's storage it's like not really marked what these 00:09:15.600 --> 00:09:24.640 chips are but I'm pretty sure they're an N flash it's possible if not likely that 00:09:22.040 --> 00:09:30.680 you'll be able to get replacement ssds for this that are potentially bigger 00:09:27.160 --> 00:09:34.800 faster more reliable 00:09:30.680 --> 00:09:36.920 wait there's a second storage slot so 00:09:34.800 --> 00:09:41.720 there's one over here and there's one right here they're both the same slot 00:09:39.680 --> 00:09:47.040 can I just point out how crap it is that we are expected to be impressed by that 00:09:44.079 --> 00:09:51.440 yeah it is pretty crap oh you know what I could probably take this Frame off I 00:09:49.760 --> 00:09:55.920 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 00:09:53.959 --> 00:09:59.920 want to keep going I just want to get this cage off so I can see underneath it 00:09:58.040 --> 00:10:04.320 I'm not going to pull the cool off I'm not going to pull the main board out or 00:10:01.519 --> 00:10:09.440 anything like that I just want to see unobstructed the view of the board pull 00:10:06.839 --> 00:10:09.440 the cooler off 00:10:09.920 --> 00:10:16.399 the mostly what I wanted to do was uh 00:10:14.440 --> 00:10:20.839 have a look inside and see what the main board looks like yeah let's just let's 00:10:18.640 --> 00:10:25.680 not take it off yeah I'm not going to go any further than this I just wanted to 00:10:22.200 --> 00:10:28.399 get this plate out of the way um even 00:10:25.680 --> 00:10:31.399 though Jake's like ah do it or no balls yeah I'll do it after we've done our 00:10:29.959 --> 00:10:34.800 thermal testing because this one actually has a different cooler I think 00:10:33.040 --> 00:10:40.079 than the M1 Ultra version that's aluminum versus copper uh for today 00:10:37.639 --> 00:10:44.120 it'll just have to end here one thing I'm noticing as I'm kind of reassembling 00:10:42.200 --> 00:10:48.760 it a little bit here is that the I/O is actually very very modular like all of 00:10:46.720 --> 00:10:53.279 these are in boards and they're in their solid so it's actually pretty unlikely 00:10:51.160 --> 00:10:58.079 that you're going to ever act like end up breaking anything here and if you do 00:10:55.880 --> 00:11:01.440 it is replaceable so maybe not a repairability score of 00:10:59.920 --> 00:11:06.120 like this was actually a little bit more trivial to get into than I expected but 00:11:03.839 --> 00:11:11.399 it does require you to that power supply is dangerous a f the uninitiated yeah 00:11:09.279 --> 00:11:15.880 check this out that's how it goes in and that's how it connects you just you just 00:11:13.519 --> 00:11:20.920 screwed screw it down yep that's that's exactly how the uh the iMac Pro died 00:11:19.079 --> 00:11:25.240 that's that's the reason cuz they just that's their connection line voltage oh 00:11:23.200 --> 00:11:29.720 no that's no that's not line voltage 12 Vol or something yeah 12 00:11:26.760 --> 00:11:34.959 Vol okay still still enough like current to really mess up your day yeah I wasn't 00:11:33.360 --> 00:11:41.320 expecting to get interrupted uh I was going to close it out so yeah line is 00:11:37.800 --> 00:11:42.680 go this real cool huh I don't know why 00:11:41.320 --> 00:11:47.200 that was Elvis but you know it's so salty right now I don't know why I'm 00:11:45.079 --> 00:11:51.440 okay I know why I'm salty this was way too like I mean I guess I should have my 00:11:49.959 --> 00:11:54.720 very first instinct was that there were screws under this thing but I was like 00:11:53.079 --> 00:11:58.279 no they couldn't possibly because that would require them to actually you know 00:11:56.440 --> 00:12:02.959 break it to get back in but apparently that's what Apple does now this killed 00:12:00.839 --> 00:12:06.680 you emotionally a little bit but you know what doesn't kill me emotionally 00:12:05.160 --> 00:12:10.279 ShortCircuit you should get subscribed we do all kinds of unboxings not all of 00:12:08.839 --> 00:12:14.639 them are like this not all of them have rage if you want another one with rage 00:12:12.480 --> 00:12:18.000 the LG Graham that I reviewed a little while ago that was pretty rage that was 00:12:16.720 --> 00:12:20.440 that was a different kind of video for me
