another video you say get macbook and macos now... lol it was not worth money anyway

Bruh, this is like me buying a car and telling me to keep the doors open at night.

hello bro should I install a screen protector and a keyboard cover on my Mac.

MAC - BATHROOM - - NICE TAKE -

CONCISE - CONCISE - TOO MUCH UNNECCSARY - INFO - GET TO THE POINT -

THANKS - BUT - PLEASE SLOW DOWN - TRY PAUSING - INSTEAD OF - CAFFEINE - HALF A VALIUM - WOULD HELP US -

thank you
😍

It's pathetic to see pseudo-engineers talking about computer engineering.
I'm a computer engineer myself, and I worked for Apple for 6 years.
IT IS NOT TRUE that shutting down your Mac will put "SOME STRAIN" on your computer that putting it to sleep will not.

First of all, he lacks basic physics knowledge on how computers work and tried to use the meaningless word STRAIN because he can't explain it (it's not a mechanical machine, lol).
So he uses "STRAIN" to appear "smart" to his viewers but exposes his vast ignorance on the subject.
All the tasks listed as supposedly causing the "strain" are done as pre-checks before constant use afterward. If you're smart, you will understand right there how his claim is total nonsense. Because the very strain is something the computer is undergoing all the time. These are just pre-checks. It doesn't mean if it's not checking them, these "components" will be used. Quite the contrary, they are constantly used while it's on. And during sleep, a few of those will also be used because some tasks are kept alive. That's precisely the very same strain he was trying to convince people to avoid, which is stupid in the first place. It makes no sense. Sleep mode, using his own theory, will put MORE "STRAIN" on your computer than when it's shut down and turned on at the start of the day.
FINAL: Ignore these "Internet Experts" who use "keywords" to make claims without actually explaining the real engineering behind it. It's stupid to even think that these people know anything they're saying.

Note: The only reason we recommend users put their computers to sleep is just so our apps can keep track of and update data for users, to improve profits, conversions, and the overall experience. It has nothing to do with hardware or software integrity, "strain" (lmfao), or anything that could damage the computer. It's PHYSICALLY obvious that shutting down will wear the batteries LESS than sleeping in the long run. It's insignificant for most, but it will. It is PHYSICS; you can't WORK AROUND basic physics. It's high-school basic knowledge. You guys should know better.

These pseudo-engineers look like those fools who believe that someday we will create "anti-gravity" with high-tech, lol PHYSICS... lol.

I only use Windows laptop and I never shutdown unless necessary. After work I'd just put it to sleep mode (without closing the lid) which is my usual routine for months until a reboot is necessary after major OS and Driver updates. It's sad to see that an expensive M2 Mac still has a limit of 1 extended monitor. My Windows laptop with AMD 7735HS, 64GB DDR5, 2TB NVME SSD only costed me less than 1000USD and I can connect up to 3 external displays in extended mode without any issues, in fact this is my current setup right now.

Easy fix: don't be a caveman when manipulating your macbook.
Also, about the "turn off" question: i don't think apple makes it to be frequently turned off. Steve Jobs wanted all of apple products to never be shutdown. He wanted everything to be "dormant" while not being used. Just like we use the iphone and macbook today. (you can verify this in his biography by Walter Isaacson).

Wow this Bull Beep. Why do you keep doing this to yourself man. Either promote Apple or don’t but literally from all your videos you say you have a MacBook but then say the million things that make it bad or how it’s not perfect. If you don’t want a MacBook you don’t have to buy one. Just stop complaining please.

Also for my Intel based Macbook can't effect on never shut-down process? Only sleep ???

I can’t be the only one that gets annoyed by the simple presence of this dude.
He has no idea what he is talking about most of the time

Hi heavy Macuser here since 2015 when i switched from windows. Since then I had four different mac models personal and provided by my workplaces. I almost never shut down my Macs except for upgrades and password reset issues or say if i plan to not use them for weeks or for a long time. I can say on the most extreme scenario am still going strong with one of my backups a Macbook 12 from 2015, which had a keyboard replacement in 2019 (done free by Apple since this was a known issue on these Macs) and a blackout screen in 2021 (replaced by Apple) but the screen was never cracked it just worn off showing the typical blank screen. I have never replaced any batteries or logic components this Mac still works swiftly and plan to keep it until 2025 completing a full 10 yr cycle as it was bought maxed out in RAM and storage which is still superior from basic config Apple is selling in their new models at their stores in 2023. For my other Macs inefficiencies or cracked screens were never there I replaced batteries in two of them when approaching 900 - 1,000 cycles while still bearing some minimal charge but that is all, so I guess in statistical metrics anything can always happen but cracked screens or other non-typical problems should not be a real concern if you do not turn off your Mac regularly. Hope this helps.

This video is just retarded. "The laptop picks up speed for multasking." What in the world? I think videos like these must be taken with a grain of salt. Furthermore, you propose having components turned ON all the time instead of switching them OFF when not in use. So keep them ON saves the components instead having them in use? This makes no sense.

arthur winer, what a fake ass name

Don't listen to this video as it's absolutely hogwash. Anyone worth any salt in IT knows that you ALWAYS FULLY SHUT DOWN your laptop when travelling. This is so obvious even a retard can understand why.

It is also FALSE that shutting down your Macbook does more harm than good. That is absolute HOGWASH!

And shutting down the windows laptop is also not good.?

Just enjoy your macbook guys hehe Don't stress out :) because at the end of the day it will still age.

I put my laptop on a smart power bar so that when it goes to sleep, the "phantom power" turns off. Which also saves you energy since it's always drawing power if its plugged in. Cheers.

Putting mac into sleep in an issue for many users, mac wont wake up again ,I heard this and none of my friends do that.

there was a time my MacBook Air is too hot to handle when putting it in the bag without shutting down

"Oh no you're losing a few seconds for turning on your pc" ridiculous behavior. You also didn't really said anything in the end with a summary

Me not even taking the computer out of the box

Macbooks don't have to be shut down because they take what apple calls "power naps"

All u do is simply close it which it sleeps
Open it to wake it

Power naps 😴

I have 7 Macbooks. Never cracked one myself closing the lid. Folks its the user 100%. Close your lids gently.

NEVER set anything on the laptop. I see many people in the office set their display on the laptop, buy a stand and do not slam it shut.

Dom Mazetti?

For some reason I can't concentrate on your speech.

You were all over the place and didn’t really differentiate between sleep mode and just closing the lid. Is there a difference?

Every time I leave my Mac “Open/on” I came back, i Notice apple somehow mess with it. Can’t really tell how or what they do. But they defenely check it out.

Dramaqueen.
Can't believe how you stole 5 minutes of my life (didn't finish the video since it is nonsense).

should I use screen protector for m2. I saw on internet that it's not safe to use screen protector.

You worry too much. Turn your mac off, keep it on, use clamshell mode, hibernate, sleep, whatever. The Mac really won't care. Use it how you like it, you're overanalysing this.

Get to the fuckin’ point! Couldn’t finish the video…his annoying voice didn’t help much either!

Agreed, I've noted that with other videos of his. If anything if you want to get to tens minute just cover a couple topics rather than one and then get to the point quicker.

So the take away for me is don't worry about anything just said because all the "negative" things as so incremental and cumulative only after years and years. By then I will be craving a newer MacBook anyway. Thus, the heading of this video is clickbate at best.

Hey isn’t it the laptop will overheat if you keep the laptop inside the bag without turning off?? Because other windows laptop are becoming super hot. Care of explain this in any video ?

I watched the video 2 times but it doesn't gave me the answer to the title "This Little Mistake Kills M2 MacBooks!". The title sounds really dramatic but the video was informative

Looks like the T2 chip is only present on certain Macs. Looks like that portion might need some extra research 🤔

I had camera cover installed , one day I closed the lid, and I screwed 😂, luckily it was my company latop

Bro science

lol a constant discharge isn't good on a battery.... ugh some bad advice but never mind lol 😂

My MacBook which I still use had a period of time(4years) where I didn’t turn it off I only closed it and I’ve never had a problem as for the camera I covered it in water soluble arcrylic paint so I can just wipe it away when I need to use it.
