That's cool, but he actually shows us where their mechanical/electronic issues are, explains in graphic detail. It's not 'opinion'. He's not talking to the general public, only guys like me who are or were into electronics. But his main beef is not with the computers, it's the techs. He tests them, has his employees take macbooks in with known defects, to see how well they do. Many times, they try and sell on repairs the laptop doesn't need, and totally miss the real problem. He's at the forefront of the 'right to repair' issue, which Apple tries to make it so difficult for independent repair shops to do their job. Talk about injustice by manufactures: The injustice in greater detail, this is an eye opener.
For the record, I am aware of him and his content relating to Apple and all that, and I agree with what he has to say. Apple does a lot of things that are not the most consumer-friendly. They're not the only company that can be bad in that regard, but they are among the worst. That said, though, in my experience with modern Apple hardware, it is of decent quality and I personally have not had hardware issues come up and have not personally had to deal with repairs or replacements. If I were to get a non-Apple laptop today, I think I'd actually get a Framework because they are modular and every component can be replaced or upgraded by the end user, and I enjoy tinkering with hardware. I put my modern gaming PC into a Pentium 4 era tower case for fun not long ago, for instance. Apple does not offer that kind of PC experience anymore, their products mostly being hermetically sealed things you're not meant to open up and work on, so that is certainly something that any potential buyer will want to consider. There is no upgrading or otherwise tinkering with the internals of a modern Mac unless you're prepared to pry it open and break out the soldering iron, except for the ridiculously expensive Mac Pro tower.
