Uhhh no thanks.
Nabder Nagor could get a 1050ti for that
All Time Tech it’s not even from apple
Daksh Malhotra he said for not from.
+All Time Tech I bet you Apple is making them pay a boatload just to get their product name in their product.
well that explains why he didnt mention prices
I feel bad for the employee that had to clean up all that thermal past.
"Bring us finally then"
yep i hate cleaning thermal past
"Thermal past"
Enough about my thermal past how about my thermal future
I guess you could say this was an epic stand-off
ok ill leave
ha
ha
ha
thank you
I can't 'stand' these videos
The door is over there, the windows are over there. You pay for damages
@ChaKan and @duanmcinnes
you have crossed the fucking line delete this now
+Hanib I agree. It's time to take a stand against horrible puns.
hmmm... I think I'll stay with the most expensive stand, school books.
"It's not terrible 10/10"- IGN sums up all their game reviews
Steam reviews FTW.
For games without steam reviews... Well... Look for metacritic user reviews if you can find any. If you can't, then you're fucked.
TessellatedGuy game reviews are just bullshit
The fake typing tho
he could at least try to look like he is typing. it is hilarious though.
*_Award winning fake typing_*
I expect as much from a "modern design hipster" like Edzel.
yes k lol
I've had a Rain Design mStand in daily use for ~9 years and it's been great. Only complaint is the top feet have yellowed - they're probably made from TPU which really doesn't like UV light. The feet on the unit in the video look different though, so maybe they've changed the material.
I own the mStand for about 8 years now (maybe even more.. that time, they did not have the 360°-version nor different colors) and I am really content with it! Especially the hole for the cables is quite useful! I used it on many locations and it's just perfectly stable.
Would have really liked to see if that aluminum stand actually made a difference on temperatures/performance
Hey dude Reading the comments
chirongaming DID YOU JUST ASSUME MY GENDER?
hello there
Old stale meme.
technicaly not a meme but fair enough
chirongaming á
Had an mStand for years, and used it on both my 15" Macbook Pro, as well as a 17" widescreen Sony. Great stand, not really portable but solid build.
Thank you. Here is some feedback. I watched 10 review videos before finding yours (because I tried to watch the most recent ones first) and it was the only useful one. Useful and educational information, judgement are backed-up with facts, clear accent for non-native english speakers among your viewers, no overuse of distracting visual effect and music, a few discreet jokes to make it fun but still stay focus on the topic, judgement on the product only and not the viewer. The biggest added value is that your pro and cons for each of the options are not obvious, they are not something I could have guessed just by reading the product description. Also, calling the BS about some claimed benefit (heat sink) was not obvious to me, I learned something. Finally, there is no unpleasant judgement on the viewer, like I sometimes hear some youtubers saying "it's stupid to spend so much money for that" ( = "if you have considered buying this, you are stupid) or "it's silly to believe you can get something good for such a low price" (= if you did, you are stupid). It's just fact, and backed-up judgement on the products, not on your viewers. To summarise: you gave me what I was looking for and gave me a reason to check your reviews first before anyone else >> a reason to subscribe. Take care!
"We went through a whole box of thermal paste." Oh boy, I wonder how that happened
I like that this video is more informative (and i'm sure many feel the same) then the videos you guys have been making recently. I do like the meme videos but I also like the informative ones as well :)
The Rain stand does increase cooling due to it's angled position. As opposed to the smaller vertical ones out there where you put the macbook in closed and upright. There the warm air needs to be pushed down. (Doing it upside down, your ports are 'in the air'.) And as we all know, warm arm rises up, thus making the cooling process less optimised.
i was waiting for a vid like this ty very much
hey Linus!!! they got new Prostand out for only 999 USD!!!! please review it for us!!
they won't do it
noTmiZ actually I bet they’re gonna review the Mac Pro and Pro Display
edzellent video!
I use a roost, magic trackpad and vortex core keyboard for my laptop setup, works great and fits into a bag super easy
As far as I can tell from the footage, the stand rest plate of the iLevel 2 is perfectly thick enough for the use - its the hinge/adjustment mechanism that "gives", not the rest plate itself. Otherwise it looks simple, somewhat stylish and decent - hopefully this will be adressed and revised.
I haven't seen this yet but I have a Roost and it's good for traveling but I think I want something that still allows me to get the MacBook Pro closer to my eyes. Which means I want my hands and keyboard to be able to sit under the laptop and with this you cannot do that. I think the ability to get the laptop closer to your eyes should be factor when evaluating these stands.
Don't worry. Apple got you there.
With only 999$ you will get the "superior stand"
Sigh, it's these people again
Apple’s $1000 Piece Of Metal doesn’t work with the MacBook Pro.
It’s funny because it’s true.
Well this is true. They even sell a wheel for $799
Youll also have to buy the adapter for 699$
This was actually a very timely video for me. Thanks!
I use the mStand 360 at work and it actually is useful. I swivel my 15" MPB around for quick review sessions with my coworkers on a weekly basis. I can also attest to its rigidity. I have no complaints.
Any updates on this?
@@angelcuadras450 it has stood the test of time and is just as good now as it was on day one.
@@Ethan_Thompson Thank you so much for the update. Very much appreciated!
Dont eat cold rice
Dennis18817
Because it makes your jaw bones hurt
Direct Rex // you mean _uncooked_ rice?
I eat cold rice everyday after school and my jaw doesn't hurt...
Eat ricegum
Kill me
/r/withrice
I don't even know why I watched the whole video because I wouldn't (ever) buy a macbook.
max barcon You don't have any laptop?
Mongocom nope
Not the only one. Never owned a laptop, can do almost everything I want on my phone or remotely.
you can put any ultrabook on there really.
max barcon
Same here
these are the videos we are watching you guys. good information with a little fun.
I have the Rain Design non-adjustable/non swivel and love it. Its a sturdy stand with a clean design. The heatsink thing is stupid though. Whats the purpose of a portable laptop stand? You use a Laptop Stand if you're going to plug in a full sized keyboard and mouse, so unless you bring one of those to class why the heck do you need a collapsible stand? You don't.
This week these are the most exciting Apple (related) products we can talk about. You're taking trolling to a new level :D.
um how did you post it an hour ago?
Kaden Combs Maybe Linus uploaded the video for a second (then unlisted it) and he commented.
exciting ? LMAO Apple still rekt by samsung 3 years in a row
Spot the poor person.
Chrono™ you
The one time Synergy would have been a USEFUL sponsor
Thanks for the suggestion 👍!
I just use my section of closet shelving for my laptop. It lifts my laptop to a nice level and the wire design helps keep it cool.
if you look closely, ed isn't actually typing properly.
Wow, never would have figured that out. Thanks
DoodleDoop thank you for pointing that out, I actually didn’t notice that.
DoodleDoop closely?it was obvious af
Mao Zedong this guy is woke af for sarcasm
yes
you definitely have to look closely
Bring us finally then
I have been enlightened. I never knew i needed one of these until today.
Thanks I was just about to buy one that you mentioned but wanted to look at some videos on youtube for suggestions and it just so happens to be in your video! so I feel better about picking it up.
I use a cardboard box for my laptop.
5:20 @Python lol
:
Max is awesome.
The heatsink point is actually not moot, I've found this with macbooks that if you place them on thermally conductive surfaces (even not directly) the base gets significantly cooler and stops almost all of the VRM throttling issues.
I gave up on stands and went with a henge vertical dock. I connected the dock to a spare power supply, then connected a thunderbolt hub. The hub runs my mistel barocco, 27" monitor, DAC, and external drives. I run a Magic Trackpad instead of a mouse, and the whole system works great and has a clean desktop layout. Highly recommend it over a stand :)
LTT's editors don't miss a beat. Linus can't make any errors without them pouncing on it. Loved the little jab at 4:08 they snuck in there XD
"Australian edition" lmao
I was actually looking at the Twelve South Highrise since the adjustable hight is a must for the use case that I have. Luckily I just went with a laptop holder from multibrackets which has vesa mounts instead. Put it on a monitor stand with vesa mounts and I suddenly had all the movement I needed from it. You may question why I would need to be able to rise the laptop that high up, but for my use case it's essential. I have it standing on my desk in the study hall (we have private desks allocated for each student at a masters level), it's great to get the same hight on the screen as on my desktop without having to buy an extra screen for that use.
I used to use the crane as A d.j and have to admit it's on of the best dj stands on the market.its sturdy light and folds flat so it's very portable.
What stand is it exactly though?, there are so many
Id use the MacBook as a stand for the stand - better price to performance
Might need to add some metal braces to that MacBook - it'll probably break under the weight of a grain of rice otherwise :)
So you would use the laptop as the stand for a laptop stand
What the hell is this nonsense ??? Why you ever going to spend 100 + dollars for dam bended aluminum plate ???
Oh boy
Welp...
oof
Gytis321 S if you just spent $2000 for an underpowered, underspecd blended alumina last plate to put on top of it.
Would love to see a review on the Nulaxy Sit/Stand converter! Dope video folks 👌
thanks for another great video
Came here looking for the $999 pro stand, left with my bias confirmed
I'm having a feeling that Tim Cook watched this video and then had the idea of Pro Stand. 🙂
Amazing transition at the end 😂
I have that Crane stand and the model them still make before that one came out. Both are excellent for DJing. I recommend both to my friends
How is here after the 999$ pro stand
Enemy stand name:ProStand
Stand Master:Machintosh
Hey Linus, I was wondering about that dual internet line speed increase method.
Could that work with a hotspot from a phone or multiple phones using hotspot at once?
I love the C++ shout out at 5:24 //Makes me happy
Its python
The Stream was defective their was a Taran in it.
WHY?
How do people not know there difference between there, their and they're?
There just not good with English
:)
LiteralPotato They spend most of their time getting yelled by there English teacher that's how.
THEIR English teacher.
STAND!?? NANI!???
IS THAT A JOJO REFeRenCE!!!!?
Did somebody say... JoJo reference?
Blaze Fireheart the video thumbnail is Linus' jojo pose
Blaze Fireheart the video thumbnail is Linus' jojo pose
Everything is a jojo reference
This is true.
Nice job Linus. I appreciate you channel. Your last production shot of the curve.....was upside down....(just had to......). You would have, snazzy labs would have....Haha!!
Guys, I really like your memes and silly sound effects. Please keep it up
'Take a stand against bad economics' I see what you did thereeee
Sir Ramen Ba dum tchhhh!
Who the fuck use a laptop stand
I've been using one for 10 years and used stacks of paper before that. It's really nice to have the laptop screen on the same height as your main screen, much better ergonomics.
Thought exactly the same. Most searched item? completely use less to me. I don't even know anyone that has one. I guess what ever flows your boat.
Floats your boat. Seriously.
thats stupid. how do you type on it if your keyboard is at chest level
You have an external keyboard, just as in this video. I used to have one to keep my work laptop at the same height as my other two screens, but it broke and my company doesn't like spending money on such things, so I haven't got one now. I don't notice it that much, but would probably grab something if it was only a few dollars.
I have a wireless keyboard and mouse on my desk so that I can type in front of my largest screens, and use the laptop monitor as a secondary screen for emails and assorted other stuff.
The Roost stand is also highly adjustable and I have no issues with the wobbling!
I have also tried the HiRise, but that cant lift the MBP screen to no where near as high as you would want it to be ergonomical. I also don't get what you are doning to make the stands wobble so much. That means that your whole desk must wobble quite a bit...
What's the stand user?
ITS AN ENEMY STAND
Lifestream!!!
I love the industrial look
Nice LUA reference, that brings back Game Maker memories
So do Macbooks, why would you not expect the stands to too.
How did you post it an hour ago?
the same way I have done it 90% of the time for the last year or so.
... I thought the streams were supposed to be unlisted for 24 hours, so people could watch a little later, or is that not a thing anymore?
when i was using a macbook i used a stand that elevated it ever so slightly to be more comfortable to write on and it had usb input to power the included fans that were underneath to cool the thing while gaming mad on it
You guys should make a video about normal laptop stands! Also some for gaming laptops with cooling fans in them
$999 OMEGALUL
>australian edition
I personally love production equipment aesthetic.
format actually works
An LTT video about stands? INCOMING JOJO REFERENCES!!!
My question: why not buy a "laptop stand" for your MacBook? Why it gotta specifically be a "MacBook Stand"?
The way they always type while showcasing products is LIT
Great review (always), nice job! I just purchased the Curve by 12 South, added to my desk too! Loving it! See it here
Cmon, just finish your LG fake window project...
who tf brings a macbook pro to a lan party
I bought an amazon basic laptop stand that works amazingly fine for my macbook pro
The ParcSlope is pretty much what I've been looking for
I always have my laptop on the couch (L shape couch where your legs would go)
I was using two coasters forever haha this should be perfect!
I don't like the raised designs I like the keyboard as low as possible
I love lua
So do i!
Great Programming language ain't it 😆lol
i fucking hate lua. whats with the if then cant they just use {}. its anoying
andrew baum are you programmer?
Oh is that what it is. Thought it was VB for a sec and shuddered...
'a pile of brushed Aluminium garbage'.....
Apple products in a nutshell
melodyofailingheart Nah.
Plus. The Mac Pro isn't brushed. It's polished
melodyofailingheart not true as someone who used windows iOS has used mac has an android and used Linux max is just well let's be nice say high up there in price tag built for certain users
swami539 swamiji if we were to listen to UA-camrs, the results are obviously gonna be skewed in favour of OS X simply because of the speed advantages that background rendering offers on Final Cut Pro since their bread and butter depends on quasi-professional quasi-amateur video editing, which is EXACTLY the niche that OS X occupies. Most of the Hollywood guys use Adobe as admitted by them in behind the scenes interviews.
Price isn't the only gripe I have against Mac platform.
I have already invested over US$1700 on my PC. The thing that I hate about Macs is the smug, stupid, scamming keynotes. I can't find a GTX 1080Ti in Apple's lineup even if my life depended on it and yet the keynotes blow them up as if they were the second coming of Jesus.
Good job guys, great video
I just use my Dekoni ear pads and it's lined perfectly with my desktop monitor and my MacBook Pro. For using it I use synergy which syncs to my pc
hello stream viewers
Why am I even watching this? I'm never going to willingly buy an apple product.
XOLiD I fell bad for you
Get a load of that sweet neck action. Thanks, Max.
Does UA-cam allow you to stream content on two separate channels? I was thinking that it would be cool if you were able to create a second channel that would archive all of your live stream. This would allow people who might have missed the stream announcement an opportunity to view it after the fact, while also keeping the content itself from "polluting" the channels main videos. I can see why this might not be something that would sound appealing to every channel on this platform, but is it something that can be utilized by those content creators who would find it beneficial?
Review of IPhone X vs your Samsung s8
Mohamed barrawi Comes out in 2 months. Limited supply too.
Thought I'd get it out here to be considered....
Although we would love if Linus took more tech into consideration like phones and tablets ( consumer grade and prices )
Not to copy other youtubers but, phones that suit different kinds of people's
Like what's the best phone for gamers
What's the best phone for editor
Best phone for university students
Etc....
Also for tablets
Not budget
But how does the iPad Air line up with today's tablets and is it good for people considering their budget
Or Lenovo tablet for university students.
Because many high school and university students are the fan base of linus
Mohamed barrawi Linus is biased so no
This god damn keyboard mashing in Linus's videos... the cringe !!!!
Haha, love the way Edzel types
That's a nice RTJ3 background on the LG Gram
Cool haired girl as a regular ?
i dig
hot linus girl appears... *happy*
You should check out the Hercules laptop stand. It is heavier than the Crane but exceptionally stable. Mine is utterly rigid and still adjustable.
i made laptop stand by clothes or coat hanger and it perfectly working fine for 2.2kg HP laptop .. ( i watched video on youtube ) ...!!!! .. keep the hanging curved part of hanger downside ( where is your touchpad is ) on the battery side keep two point support coz weight is more at the back ... ( screen also )
