I","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":311.31,"end_s":318.54,"text":"really like hitting it with my thumb I'd say everything that I felt so far just","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":314.7,"end_s":320.55,"text":"kind of works like this trackpad is it's","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":318.54,"end_s":327.03,"text":"not glass

can't","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":327.03,"end_s":340.95,"text":"complain about how it feels like it's it's just a trackpad as for the

would say it is","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":351.12,"end_s":357.48,"text":"totally acceptable let's get back to the whole problem that I was talking about","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":354.51,"end_s":364.47,"text":"before where this thing only has 8 gigabytes of RAM room so hopefully these","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":361.5,"end_s":371.33,"text":"are all the same type of screw AHA there we go so yeah definitely guitar pick","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":368.22,"end_s":375.81,"text":"required to get this one apart so close","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":371.33,"end_s":377.61,"text":"things a jerk oh don't turn on this is","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":375.81,"end_s":386.97,"text":"really not a good time to turn on why do you keep on turning on all right let's","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":383.22,"end_s":389.88,"text":"get you turned off this is absolutely","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":386.97,"end_s":394.56,"text":"not the time for this Dell shut down and stay shut down holy crap so I guess now","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":392.79,"end_s":399.87,"text":"that we are in here it's a 56 watt era battery is pretty good in this price range well","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":397.86,"end_s":406.23,"text":"actually that's exactly what you get in this price range basically alright so we","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":401.79,"end_s":410.4,"text":"have 8 gigs of 2066 memory in here right","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":406.23,"end_s":412.62,"text":"here I've got 16 gigs of DDR4 20 66","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":410.4,"end_s":416.43,"text":"memory from a time Tec they're just cheap RAM that you can get on Amazon","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":414.69,"end_s":421.11,"text":"basically that's kind of the whole selling point one of these guys right","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":418.59,"end_s":427.92,"text":"here is 31 dollars so the whole kit was 62 hopefully we can just toss one of","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":424.44,"end_s":431.4,"text":"them in and it'll be happy we might need","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":427.92,"end_s":433.23,"text":"to put in the whole kit because RAM just","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":431.4,"end_s":437.97,"text":"doesn't always play nice with other RAM and then we also have there's another m2","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":435.75,"end_s":443.13,"text":"slot here so you could actually like have a lot of storage in this thing","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":440.22,"end_s":447.45,"text":"quite easily between like a hard drive to Emma to maybe put them in raid zero","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":445.89,"end_s":451.59,"text":"I'm actually pretty happy with this as far as you know like a budget

to","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":453.78,"end_s":462.42,"text":"take your day with this SSD is hilarious just look at that 512 gigabytes in this","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":459.84,"end_s":467.73,"text":"thing if you show me that a couple years ago I'm like no way how do they even do","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":465.9,"end_s":471.99,"text":"it is it DRAM list that's a great question actually it's probably the","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":469.74,"end_s":478.53,"text":"exact same one that was in the Dell system that we got from Best Buy and it","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":474.99,"end_s":481.77,"text":"probably is DRAM 'less but uses the","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":478.53,"end_s":483.96,"text":"memory on the

you","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":485.91,"end_s":493.169,"text":"look here you can just move the little mounting bracket back here and the","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":490.56,"end_s":497.16,"text":"heatsink goes like it travels the whole length so you won't have any issues

didn't","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":500.01,"end_s":506.49,"text":"touch the power button but it's already turning on this thing just absolutely","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":503.91,"end_s":511.38,"text":"loves that warning Oh warning the amount of system memory","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":509.19,"end_s":516.15,"text":"has changed it most certainly has that's a good warning right there so let's just","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":513.78,"end_s":520.8,"text":"hit enter so it looks like that we're gonna get away with just putting in

you","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":528.93,"end_s":536.88,"text":"be able to do quite a bit with this thing once you have enough RAM in there so for the same price you can get

Inspiron","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":546.81,"end_s":554.57,"text":"over say like a g5 or something like that is that it just doesn't look stupid","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":0},{"start_s":552.42,"end_s":559.95,"text":"like you can take this thing right here into like office hours with your

alright see you later","speaker":null,"is_sponsor":1}],"full_text":"so the other day I'm watching a video for the audio rs6 Avant and thinking that's a really nice car that I'm never going to buy because it's literally what like five times more expensive than a Golf GTI and you get what it's definitely faster it's better but like realistically day-to-day how different is it going to be which brings us to the Inspiron 15 7000 you know it's definitely no rs6 Avant but at the same time it probably does everything that you need a laptop to do so uh let's get into it and see if you know it actually lives up to that looking in here we've got um well not a whole lot we've got some basic just cardboard that looks like it was recycled and I think the power bricks over here that's 130 watts so powerful but not SuperDuper powerful so uh here it is the Inspiron 15 7000 this one right here has I'd say respectable ports but nothing amazing so we have an SD card reader I'll turn that around so you guys can see it so we have an SD card reader USB type a combo headphone microphone port around the other side we have full size HDMI two USB Taipei's and Oh a Thunderbolt port you normally don't expect to see that on something that's at this price this is just over a thousand dollars so you know have that context when we go into this like does it feel like an XPS 15 of course it doesn't this thing is not made out of carbon fiber but at the same time it feels pretty damn good like I'm I'm giving it a lot of flexing twisting right now and it's really not giving up like the actual screen isn't the stiffest it seemed I'm pretty sure that's all it's moved yeah the screen isn't super duper stiff but also who is doing this all day long I'm not no I don't believe it's touched yeah it's not touch screen so you don't really have to worry about that too too much kind of so it looks like that there's a very small amount of the thing that a lot of laptops do these days where it lifts up the base as you open the screen although it kind of looks like it's more so just a thing that happens as opposed to a feature like there's rubber right here but it has such a small amount of lift that I can't really imagine that it's doing anything for like the thermals or the keyboard position or anything so we're looking at a core i7 9750 H which is a six core processor and pretty damn fast I would have to say it's not gonna you know it's not an eight core processor it's not a ninety nine eighty HK or whatever but I imagine for the vast majority of people if you want to like well surfing the web obviously it's going to be good enough but probably oh you say mark this is probably good for like like video editing actually kind of intense video editing really what would not be fine is that it only has eight gigabytes of RAM and we can fix that later we'll get there so disk we get a 512 Gigabyte NVMe SSD which is actually fairly nice to have at this price point you'd normally expect to see like 256 and maybe a hard drive something like that we've got Intel Wireless which probably means it's pretty good I believe it's 2x2 I don't think we get Wi-Fi 6 but it's probably more than fast enough for basically everyone and finally the most disappointing part of the whole thing the NVIDIA GeForce gtx 1050 it's it's a 1050 come on guys it's I would have been way happier if they had have included a 1650 I think the 1650 is what like 4050 percent faster than a 1050 that's to come that's the kind of performance that can actually deliver a good gaming experience whereas for this right here you're going to be like well I don't know I have a star to valley background on here so you're gonna be playing stardew valley or like I don't know DotA csgo something like that and not SuperDuper well 10:50 yeah it's just kind of disappointing but at the same time this isn't a gaming laptop you're not going to be using it to game all day every day oh there's a calculator button we're here anytime that you need to calculate something just Boop this is my new favorite feature just oh yeah clear get right back in plus - oh that's nice thing I'm glad they thought of that and I'm also really glad it has a number pad I feel like that way too many laptops these days just completely give up on it even though they might have the space I personally use it all the time I don't know my background is like in engineering so I think of like using Excel and MATLAB all day as kind of like the main use case other people might not be doing that but even so I just really like even just the Enter key here I really like hitting it with my thumb I'd say everything that I felt so far just kind of works like this trackpad is it's not glass soft and the click doesn't feel great but at the same time it's pretty large given and I really can't complain about how it feels like it's it's just a trackpad as for the keyboard notepad just kind of feeling the keys it feel like the stability is pretty good if you like really press down there is definite movement although when I'm actually typing I would say it is totally acceptable let's get back to the whole problem that I was talking about before where this thing only has 8 gigabytes of RAM room so hopefully these are all the same type of screw AHA there we go so yeah definitely guitar pick required to get this one apart so close things a jerk oh don't turn on this is really not a good time to turn on why do you keep on turning on all right let's get you turned off this is absolutely not the time for this Dell shut down and stay shut down holy crap so I guess now that we are in here it's a 56 watt era battery is pretty good in this price range well actually that's exactly what you get in this price range basically alright so we have 8 gigs of 2066 memory in here right here I've got 16 gigs of DDR4 20 66 memory from a time Tec they're just cheap RAM that you can get on Amazon basically that's kind of the whole selling point one of these guys right here is 31 dollars so the whole kit was 62 hopefully we can just toss one of them in and it'll be happy we might need to put in the whole kit because RAM just doesn't always play nice with other RAM and then we also have there's another m2 slot here so you could actually like have a lot of storage in this thing quite easily between like a hard drive to Emma to maybe put them in raid zero I'm actually pretty happy with this as far as you know like a budget very upgradable little laptop I'm gonna put this back on although I just want to take your day with this SSD is hilarious just look at that 512 gigabytes in this thing if you show me that a couple years ago I'm like no way how do they even do it is it DRAM list that's a great question actually it's probably the exact same one that was in the Dell system that we got from Best Buy and it probably is DRAM 'less but uses the memory on the computer like it talks to it could you yes you can definitely upgrade this to full size like if you look here you can just move the little mounting bracket back here and the heatsink goes like it travels the whole length so you won't have any issues if you want to put in a full sized and got to drive in here yep there we go didn't touch the power button but it's already turning on this thing just absolutely loves that warning Oh warning the amount of system memory has changed it most certainly has that's a good warning right there so let's just hit enter so it looks like that we're gonna get away with just putting in only one of these sticks of RAM which means that really you know six cores a 10 fit well at the ten fifty but like you know six cores you be able to do quite a bit with this thing once you have enough RAM in there so for the same price you can get a gaming laptop that's more powerful if that's what you're going for this is probably powerful enough for almost everyone unless all that you plan on doing is gaming I say that the main advantage of going with the Inspiron over say like a g5 or something like that is that it just doesn't look stupid like you can take this thing right here into like office hours with your prof and they're going to be like oh this person probably wants help instead of oh this person is probably struggling because they've been playing League of Legends all day it's not the best machine ever like it's you know it's not made of a freaking carbon fiber but at the same time it's gonna do basically everything that you need as long as you don't need the most powerful gaming laptop around 4000 bucks I'd say it's pretty solid well I guess that about wraps it up here I get subscribed hit the like bell whatever do we have an oak tree for this this is it alright see you later"}
