    The reason it didn't survive the water test is because of the battery. The device still fully functioned it's just that the battery broke.

      The battery broke and there may be other kind of damage that is just not visible.
      I have dropped many mobile phones in water. All of them usually start after drying, but other kind of nasty problems appear. Speaker stopped working in one, and other got sensitivy problems with keys. So there is very likely some damage somewhere even tough it boots up.
      If the electronics isn't water proof, don't put it in water. :/

    • @janiscena3126
      @janiscena3126 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      Teddy C that's because the power cord is giving the energy for the computer to work. The only thing that the battery is doing is charging (what it isn't doing in this case cause it's broken.

      @AllmmurrA 9 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Enrique Vera Actually in 90% of the cases they can't. They live in poverty, no jobs, no education, nothing. They don't expect the help. But it is ridiculous, she could have donated the $600+ to a charity and fed people who can't do anything to help themselves, as they have no jobs or any method of getting a job.

    • @miladk.2064
      @miladk.2064 9 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      AmazingJessicaa Thomas Those children do not deserve $600 in free funds from a complete stranger. I don't care that they are living in poverty, I don't care that they have no jobs, I don't care that they don't have an education. 90% of the money donated goes straight into the bank accounts of the people working at the charity organization. This video is well worth its $1000 price tag as it provides more than enough entertainment and educational value. Not to mention they probably made more than enough to cover the price of the macbook. How about YOU actually help them by purchasing plane tickets to Africa?

    • @AllmmurrA
      @AllmmurrA 9 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Mo K. How will purchasing a plane ticket to Africa help? I'm pretty sure the money donated to legitimate charities is appreciated, how do they not deserve it? Who deserves the $600 more? A woman who obviously has enough money to waste, or people who can't afford to buy anything?

    really lady...when someone accidentally knocks water on the laptop they immediately pick the cup up and start drying it. She let is sit for a good minute or two. Second, i'm sure if she did the "rice trick" it would have done a better job getting the water out. My 3 year old macbook air survived, 2 juice spills, 1 coffee spill and a jealous 10 year old sister dumping water on it...so yea.

      I wasn't even allowed on the computer unless it was homework, my mother would sit in the living room with me just to make sure i was't on anything else. I think i'm being more fair then the way i was raised. At least they can still play games and watch things on it, It won't be just for homework. Besides, those computers are expensive, if they save money and buy it on there own thats on them, but i personally wouldn't buy them one until college.

      ***** If you want to push it to the limit, push the cpu and gpu to max load, and see if its processors have throttled themselves or overheated. That would be more relevant (to most people) than leaving it in a freezer or putting it under a heat lamp for a few hours. The only realistic and relevant test they did here is to drop the thing.

    why everybody saying african children are dying from hunger and she is playing with a 1000 dollars macbook? I don't get it. because you can say the same thing for those who have pets at home. instead of buying expensive food for a dog or for a cat why don't you give it to africans? or why do you go to restaurant? you can cook the same meal for a less amount of money and pay the rest to hungry people. but the world doesn't work like this!
    at my uni I waste a lot of electronic circuits and chemicals for my projects but I can say okay maybe I shouldnt work on my projects cuz I can save the money paid for those materials?!

      I've been trying really really hard to keep myself from getting into disputes on youtube as it's mostly just a waste of time but, I feel like I needed to address this one because anyone who can see the sense in the point you're trying to make should also be sensible enough to see this point of view I'm trying to convey.
      Yes, you have some valid points, but some of the points don't validate your case.
      The first sentence: obvious over exaggeration. But by now most people know that people who talk in that sort of way don't mean it, it's just a figure of speech, so let's move on.
      Second sentence: Based on the "everybody" mentioned in the first sentence, those "everybodies" are people of high compassion. Why would they want to take the life a loved one, regardless of the being, for a stranger?
      3rd and 4th sentence: People have varying degrees to their own views and beliefs, on politics, religion and all sorts of things. Some don't care about things, while others care a little, and even others have strong views and beliefs, but only few are extremists. Even though not all are extremists people have an urge to express their beliefs if they feel it is the right thing to do.
      And to the last statement: It doesn't apply because it misses the bigger picture. The relatively small sacrifice required for the advancement of science and technology can progress the well being of many more.
      TL:DR version:
      ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ஜ۩۞۩ஜ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
      Yes at times, it may seem the cries for the starving children seem perpetual. But these cries often come from people who are compassionate, though their compassion may come in varying levels, they all come together to make a generalized statement.
      and the statement seems to be:
      "We may not be perfect, but we try to be good.
      We don't always do the right things, but we try to do as we should.
      We may not be the most compassionate, but at least we try to be considerate.
      We may be insignificant, but we have the potential to create change."

    These "torture tests" are so fuckin' pointless. Most of them are completely out of the realm of possibility, and the others are just a matter of chance. This is what happens if you drop any expensive, complex item. So... don't drop your shit.

    • @Lucky8s
      @Lucky8s 9 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      They're definitely not "out of the realm of possibility"...
      It's possible to spill water on it, leave in the sun too long, or drop it. And if you live in Canada, it'll definitely need to resist some pretty cold temperatures. You need to think outside the box.

    • @Lucky8s
      @Lucky8s 9 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      ***** Exposing a device to any sort of cold is a risk since it may frost slightly, and then when you enter a warm place, moisture builds up. Some people might be tired after a long day and forget their belongings in the car, then it really needs to protect itself from the climate. You're extremely narrow minded and you can't think of things outside the box, which makes you the dipshit in this case.

    I think she shorted the battery because when the macbook was in the water, the screen had turned off because of the water, however she pressed the power button which I think is the main factor in my opinion of why the battery died. I believe if she didn't press the power button and let the macbook dry, then I believe it would have turned on fine.

The other would be that the non apple hardware like this junk list, "Dell,HP, Compaq, Gateway," simply cant take it at all even the first test. I think so.

    The look on her fact when it came back on after it was in the freezer. LOL. I just got a 2013 Macbook Air. I really like it so far. The most common thing here is it falling. Everyone's Macbook Air seems to be dented from falling, although I can't imagine sitting my laptop on my car. But back in 2010 I had an old Powerbook G4 just for writing. It fell out of my unzipped bag and crashed on the concrete. The optical drive casing shattered, but the screen stayed intact and amazingly it came back on. Couldn't play DVDs, but I had a Playstation for that. I used that Powerbook until I finally got a G5 tower for cheap on eBay a few months later.

      It's simulating leaving it in a car for example.

    Mac is expensive, but it sure ROCKS! That's what I think makes it that valuable!

    I know that by dropping it it causes dents and then it's still working after, but will this damage the internal electrics so that the macbook will fail faster in time than most? I'm a little worried buying a machine online that has a few dents incase it dies on me a few months later due to the previous drops.

      +RandomSarahGrace Usually the components inside are able to withstand small drops and shocks if they use high quality solder. Not sure what apple uses though. A typical laptop will most likely break from a fall because of the use of a standard hard drive, but if the computer has an SSD, the computer should be fine.

    Drop it from the top of a ladder onto a concrete floor. I have a Dell I did that to. The screen broke, but the computer still worked after the replacement screen was connected. And still working after 3 years.
