Saw a guy today at starbucks. He had no smartphone, tablet or laptop.
He just sat there drinking coffee like a psycho.
What a monster
Wait wtf, holy shit it's insane. How can this man live with himself
It was me, did not mean to scare you, guys
dumpsterdawg found him ua-cam.com/video/ZU72Qv4cnd4/v-deo.html
NASA will need him for some space trip on other planets
Plot twist: The problem wasn't the laptop but the charger
people these days dont even try to fix it
@@klaraldblok2305 they just like "HEY WE NEED A NEW LAPTOP"
Alexander Vazov i mean he saw a video opportunity with a good idea hiding the laptops, probably still uses that’s “broken” laptop to some extent just like his old dell
Klarald Blok its Linus. Hes got racks and needs to make videos. ofc he aint gonna hold back on a new laptop
Most likely not. It's probably the battery though.
I wish they bootcamp’d windows onto the mac so we could see how long until linus took to figure out that it was a mac, if he did at all
@@lotsapasta0858 no its not illegal
@@kelums1249 not for apple iirc
@@lotsapasta0858 You're thinking he said to put macOS on all of the Windows machines, which would be "illegal", but OP said put Windows on the Mac
Apple actually advertises (well, used to since Bootcamp isn't a thing with M1...) that you can use Windows on the Mac via Bootcamp. In fact, Bootcamp comes with all Macs by default
I think he would have figured out the moment he typed on it. The butterfly keyboards are pretty unique feeling compared to scissor switches, tho imo not in a good way.
@@lotsapasta0858 wtf no it isn't
"Apparently they snuck a MacBook in there."

Razer laptop breaks. Buys another Razer. I'm like the Apple version of you.
Yeah, Razer is kind of the Windows version of Apple
@@SanderEvers Razer mice are notorious for breaking. Most of my friends have had a Razer mouse die in a year or so. Different problems, scroll wheel, double click, sensor etc. I recall at least 5 instances of them breaking too fast. I think a quality mouse should last at least 3 years of heavy usage. From my experience Logitech and Zowie have been the most durable. G9X was a legendary product for me.
The difference is he actually can choose a Windows laptop by another manufacturer
Would never buy a razor product
@@weekasi1 Had a G502 for 2-3 years now, so I'd say this checks out
Laptop: *isn’t charging*
Normal people: *gets it repaired*
Linus: “let’s get a new laptop!”
Don't even bother trying to get Razer support to give you anything more than "An extra 3 days" every 3 days.
Toddlers run their fucking support team.
Get a new charger or a new battery. Fixed.
And I really worried about the pricing.
Rich life
And buying another razer
Normal person: Gives up on a laptop that won't charge because they don't know how to fix it.
Hardware expert: Gives up on a laptop that won't charge because he found an excuse to go buy new stuff.
Nah they would get someone to repair it a normal person would
Linus is in an abusive relationship with Razer.
@Peto Pedro wow
Peto Pedro there is literally no reason he would lie about something like that, and the way you type makes me think that the one who needs to grow up is you
Peto Pedro he cant charge the device lol
Peto Pedro the only thing in there that was a proper defense is basically “well mine didn’t so he must be lying” and everything else is just filler. Just because yours didn’t die quickly doesn’t mean that his can’t. Also it didn’t die, it stopped charging, which isn’t hard to believe. I’ve had some electronics do the same in months.
@Peto Pedro one laptop doesn't mean the whole company is shit, but yeah their laptops are kind of overpriced
"Never had a **REDACTED** that lasted more than 2 years with me" - Linus
Still chooses **REDACTED** anyway...
EDIT: Redacted because of spoilers! Get back here after watching the video.
Exactly what I was going to say. I’ve had a old dell xps and a acer last until they were just obsolete.
Well he's never been the most value minded individual. He's kinda ballin' with his 9m sub UA-cam channel so based on that, I'd assume he's the kind of guy to upgrade laptops every 2 years anyway.
@@RobertNaik and then you can just use it as hammer.
This video makes me believe that flexing and bending the laptop is not a good gauge for build quality haha
Here with my Asus Rog G750JZ 5 years later and still going strong.
Linus: * Shits on LG for not having an NVME SSD in the Gram *
Also Linus: *Picks the Blade again even though it doesn't have an NVME SSD in it as configured when recording*
But the rgb
i'm still impressed how his razer laptop died in 2 years while his dell one got soaking wet inside and is living well since 2014, and also how the dell laptop just fits him better in every way but he stuck with the razer one
@Imperial Gamer what ps so confusing about SSDS tho?
@@bullymaguire6388 99% of people do not know what NVMe even is, thats whats confusing
@@nerd2544 i second that. i've also met alot of people that dunno what S.A.T.A., P.A.T.A., I.D.E., & "modem" mean (yes the word "modem"'s an acronym too / a combination of two-words also (in this particular case)).
i love how he gives up on the one laptop that an older version got water inside it but still works to this day and is the best laptop he has ever had and chooses the razer one which he has already used 2 razer laptops and none of them lasted more than 2 years with him
by this point he's probably looking for another laptop tbh
He got a frame.work laptop recently, this one might last a bit longer do to his investment though,
I believe he got that laptop for it's sturdiness, the other one was really flimsy and might break if you travel a lot, but who knows I might be wrong.
This is customer behaviour, apple trained its customers to.
I am SUPER DISAPPOINTED you didn't put bootcamped windows on the macbook to see if he calls it out as a mac..
Mixailoff but then it would not perform as good
Mixailoff mac os could be better in his opinion they did not know
@@rajsoniam they could have put 2 macs then, one bootcamped one not
I think that no one would be tricked once you touch that butterfly keyboard
@@man2naturexnature557 Agreed...
Solid choice. If he chose the XPS we wouldn’t be able to remake this video in 6-12 months.
Well, I got really disappointed with dell recently. I got a new Dell latitude for work and it just sucks. So many issues with it (constant crashes, blue screen of death, horrible Skype performance (microphone/sound bugs) and the Dell support just doesn't give me a new one. They have to change out all the different parts which is just annoying.... I wouldn't buy myself a dell for me anymore. At home I'm running a 2012 Macbook Pro 15" and this thing rocks. It's the best laptop I can think of, if I could upgrade the internals. Great keyboard, (Love the travel and feel from the old Macbooks, the new keyboard is horrible), good performance for Photoshop & casual games, it has an HDMI connection, MagSave2 power supply, SD Card slot...What I would change:
Heat. That thing gets hot, change the fans, maybe the processor to something that doesn't get as hot. After a long time in usage, the battery is-....well there but effectively it's 4 hours max, so if possible I'd just change it. Of cause if Apple would make an Retro Macbook Pro Retina 2012 that would be my laptop to buy. Just upgraded internals, same externals. I'd be happy with that. (Yes, it's not a gaming machine, you guys know that. For gaming I'm planning to build a Ryzen 7 & RTX 2070s or 2080 (regular, let's see if I get a discount there). So I'm set with that.
i hammer my xps 13 around. exactly the same spec and it hasn't let me down. cant say that about any razer blade i've owned.
First of all the way that he holds a computer or any other stuff makes my hearth beat faster. Second i don't like razer i dont trust in their products and their costumer support is the worst.
instead he'll be making it in 12 months when he gets sick of sending the laptop in for RMA repairs.
SHOTS FIRED!
I love how the Apple MacBook is the cheapest laptop out of all of them.....
Impossible...
7:03 I just spotted a ghost on the door in the left side
Holy shit
2018 Razor dying in 2019. That's reliability right there: It lasted a year, until its 1yr warranty ended.
Thats why in europe its at least 2 years
If it dies in 2019 its in warranty. Of course u might lose ur data tho
@@rayanrebahi6194 yeah, good luck with that. You know what they'll say when you say, "but I live in Europe, so it's a 2 year warranty"? They'll say, "We're not in Europe, so tough titties."
@@xenonram you would buy it from a Euro sub/vendor and if they refuse they wouldnt be able to sell over here after a few complaints or they would get fined out the wazzoo
@@Kcimor78 Well, it depends on the month as it is 12 months from purchase. If he had purchased it after July 2018, yes he is covered. And SSD is not the cause of problem, so he can recover data.
Me: I can't charge my laptop, I should get it repaired.
Linus: I can't charge my laptop, I should buy a new one.
Also Linus: This laptop is expensive
Me: My Lenovo T61 Still works but I can;t make money by making a video about it. Time to play solitaire an pinball again.
❌ I should buy a new one
✅ I should pick one from my inventory

@@dogwondr Necroing this but it's just wrong, Linus has said time and time again he hates waste. There's a reason he only changes laptops when they die, it's because he doesn't want to throw one out just because there's a new shiny one.

me: "If there's a Razer Blade among the laptops, Linus is gonna take that"
*13 minutes later*
me: "Yeah, no surprise there."
That's the brand loyalty right there.. Linus might have been biased once he took the cover of and realised what brands were made available to him.

something similar happened to. my 6 year old dell was struggling to keep 2 tabs open in mozilla. and i decided to buy a new laptop, but after ordering i installed ubuntu on the old one while waiting for the new one. and now the old one runs like a beast, 5-6 tabs open, youtube music, terminal activity , other document viewing/latex apps all running at the same time, old one is : i5 4200U, 4gb ddr4 ram, amd graphics. imagine that. and now i'm in love with ricing.

A razer product dying prematurely?
In other news, the sky is blue and fire is hot
I once bought a razer kraken headset, Died after a month. So i bought an Asus strix 7.1 headset (most expensive thing i could find at the time) Arrived dead. Got a replacement. Arrived dead. Amazon had to pull off the whole line of asus strix headsets. So i now use my Gamecom 780s from like 2012. Cost me £30 and have never failed me once.
Though on the other hand the only Razer mouse I've owned was because it was dead and a friend was gonna toss it. Basically just had to solder in a new USB cable and then I had a nice Copperhead (some fancy dumb edition or other).
@@DeathgripSTEZE for what it's worth my Razer Deathadder mouse is still kicking after many many years.
@@DeathgripSTEZE That sounds like such a pain in the ass.
My only Razor products I own are my Razor TRON: Legacy keyboard and mouse (couldn’t afford the mouse with mousepad combo pack) and while they aren’t the super greatest compared to today’s competitive gaming peripherals, they are both extremely nice in quality and function extremely well. The keyboard has a cool boot and shutdown effects and sounds, the mouse is ambidextrous yet comfortable, both have great programmability with their software, and both are still working great after many years of use. Sure, no customizing colors or color effects, and while it would have been nice for them to have at least had the capability to turn them to red, orange, green, white, as well as the default blue (these are colors used for program characters featured in the film and spin off media), the blue is the color most associated with TRON: Legacy. If I knew of Razor ONLY thru these products, I would think Razor only made top quality products, luckily for me, these are an exception to the norm. While it’s gimmicky, I do want the mousepad now.. anyone got one they want to sell??

it's utter trash anyway
Wow, thanks for this little adrenalin flash with the BSOD cut... .watched in fullscreen and for second it got me!
omg right! i had just been overclocking yesterday and i was so sure it was stable. i really love/hate the editors
Jokes on you, I'm on Windows 7 which still has the proper BSOD.
Yeah and I'm on a phone, but it still got me....
I use Linux. Stable as a rock!
@@josefmprable But my rock isn't stable what do you mean :D

"I've yet to have a Razor laptop last me more than 2 years.
Also keeps saying how the Razon has good build quality.
ujBrXEkvw jeWLfnSxm yeah as a service tech who focuses on Apple products, serviceability is a big one for me.
@ujBrXEkvw jeWLfnSxm Well, if it is for long term anyway, it should be as comfy as possible, dont you think?
@ujBrXEkvw jeWLfnSxm I was talking about how he perceive build quality, and also your opinion may vary to his taste, linus has his own way to satisfy himself
My biggest issue with this video is that you can see linus be pleasantly surprised by the DELL XPS and then once it's revealed he still goes for the razer.
So much for the point of the video I guess.
Every razer product breaks after 2 years, it's really not hard to tell they manufacture them to be that way.
The only product I've had longer than 2 years is my Kraken headset. 3 years and counting, the cable is getting rugged but that's about it.
All of my peripherals are razer btw
That prank at 4:28 actully scared me, I thought my pc broke. ;( lol
:-) Watched it on phone and got same reaction.
My heart jumped.

me to! my gpu blackscreens from time to time, and i just tought, thats it!
My blade 15 advanced (2018) stopped charging too & I bought a multimeter & tools, confirmed it was battery & not charger, & was able to order an OEM razer battery on amazon for $100. So repaired for ~$135

"Chocolate does expire - after some time, even if it was stored properly, chocolate will go bad. How to tell if it is bad? In most cases you’ll be able to see white spots or mold growing on the chocolate bar. When that happens, discard the chocolate immediately. If you’ll find any local discolorations, throwing the chocolate to the trash can is the best thing to do as well."

Linus: Time for a replacement!
Me: It's "No computer for half a year" time!
@browbass17 lol xD xD
browbass17 same. My oldest is a working HiGrade 330. Then Dell D510. Acer Aspire 8930. HP DV7. HP G6. Then my current HP Omen 17. It should be noted I look after my machine and get over kill so they last for a very long time. I miss my DV7 still!
@browbass17 thats way better than my main laptop, even my previous laptop was better than my current main laptop
My ancient laptop died and I replaced it with an Nvidia Shield K1. Haven't had a laptop since, only desktop and shield. The shield is quite alright for travel, though I occasionally miss having a real laptop.
I bought one of the Window 10 RCA Tablets for $80, cut a hold in the back, glued on a heatsink, and it is my back up for when my 2005 Pentium D 840 3.2ghz dual-core, 3gb 533mhz ddr2, GT640 2gb vram desktop randomly decides it doesn't want to work.
"wow this dell xps is really nice i love it and the price"
ok gonna get the razer that broke after 2 years again
Plus, missed opportunity to have Riley jump into frame and shout "Dude, you're getting a Dell!"
Can't blame him I have an XPS 13 and it is way more unreliable then much cheaper lenovo laptops. I am disappointed they did not have an X1 carbon.
hzumbru1 would u not recommend it, and what year is it from?
I have a 2004 Toshiba Satellite that can play HD videos (using Linux) and plays simple games. That thing is a tank: it's been dropped, has had coffee dropped on it several times, has been in a car crash, and it's still there, like the first day.
My daily driver is a Dell Inspiron 2-in-1 17" 16GB + NVidia card (2Gb), running KDE configured by me to be amazing with the touchscreen.
Uh linus. I have a question, when my laptop is under a certain amount of pressure when playing games, for example: fan is loud.. my laptop would suddenly stop charging. And when i close the game it would charge back. Sometimes when i charge it would sound like something is shorting... What is wrong with my laptop? (Just bought a new charger btw..)
0:12 OMG that skull reflection on the laptop was creepy but I know they're just covering the under-probation staffs.
Thought i was te only one 😂
they didnt have to make it so creepy though
It's also in the thumbnail
Lol i was scared shitless
i stopped the video just to see if i was not the only one who saw that..

my xps 15 is o its last legs. going to need a refresh of this one after CES 2021
Me, i would have taken the Razer and the Dell. I'd put them threw a hard core judgment review on them and see which one would be the best one for all time use! Would also use a 5 star rating and some key areas for review too!
He gets slapped in the face by a razer only to pick another razer
How ironic , he wants another slap 😂😂
It’s his kink
Again, remember he (and the staff) have had many issues anx RMAs with Razer laptops.
It’s okay as long as it’s filmed on a slow mo camera
Linus is a sucker for slaps, apparently... xD
Some people are suckers for punishment
0:11 freaked me out for a second till I realized that they were just editing out the camera man subtly.
why did i have to see that comment at 3 am
They could had done it any other way but decided on using a skull. Why do they do this to us? 😂
didn't see that at first lmao
NOT subtly
I saw that but didn’t think about it.
Everybody: goes to store for buying laptop Linus:opens a store to buy a laptop
It's always confused me when people talk about their laptop "dying" or being "dead", especially when said laptops are only four years old. I've always used Thinkpads (not a gamer) and the T420 I'm using just now is 12-13 years old and is still running like the day it came out the factory, hasn't even had so much as the cpu fan replaced. In fact the CPU hasn't even ever been repasted! No defects whatsoever on a nearly 13 year old machine! I run it with an SSD and Linux and it's way more than quick enough for web browsing, office work, UA-cam (will stream 1080P just fine despite not having 1080p screen) and some light photography. It's got a Core i5 2.5 and 8gb of ram, 1tb SSD...what more do I need! The internal components are completely shielded by a titanium roll cage making it reasonably drop proof, the things built like a tank and it's even designed to deal with water spillage on keyboard! It has the best laptop keyboard that was ever made, the typing feel is bliss. Even the battery life is still half decent after 12 or 13 years. You know what makes all that even better? I bought this T420 off Ebay for $120!! But do you know what's even better than THAT? I could sell it today for the exact same price I paid for it, or slightly more!! zero depreciation.
"Doesn't have a full sized HDMI, but I guess that's becoming more common these days"
X1 Carbon: "Am I a joke to you?"
He never said no laptops have it
Yeah the X1 Carbon is a joke in this lineup for what he wants. Go and build one yourself on their website with similar specs, it STARTS at nearly 2200 USD and that's with integrated graphics and a worse battery. So you spend more and get effectively less, not wise at all for an investment lmao.
4:27 - legit thought my laptop was dying for a second.
U know thets pathetic.
My laptop actually crashed at that exact moment, I'm not making this up. Although, in fairness, I was running it in power saver mode, and had a game that froze in the back ground, that I just alt tabbed away from.
