What does Jow Forums think of Rossman? Is he competent?

>Is he competent?
More than most fa/g/gots.

Fuck off Jew. It's not self respect it's egotitistical horn tooting.

Self respect involves being humble to at least some point. Not professing yourself some god of business who knows all because you own a repair shop in New York.

I do believe he's competent and knows what he's talking about, sure.
But I find him to be an insufferable arrogant jackass.

kys for making an e-celeb thread.

>He may be successful businessman and know more about tech then i ever will while i'm shitposting on Jow Forums from my grandmothers basement, but i know that i'm better then him!

>egotitistical horn tooting
He often says how he's not the best at most of the stuff he does, but that he's driven and that's his source of success.
He also talks about hi failed businesses.

He screwed the Jew long ago, and you're just jealous.

Can you repeat the question?

>I don't have an argument

You do realize he frequently criticizes corporations and lead people who are literally worth so much more than him that it defies comprehension right? Or is he smarter than all of those people as well you little fanboy e celeb faggot?

Yes he makes a passing remark how he's not the best right after or before bragging for 10 minutes about his business, or how he shakes but can still solder and anyone who can't is a little bitch, and wow look at me and all I have I'm so successful everyone should just be exactly like me.

Again ignoring how he lambasts and slings verbal spew on people far more successful, and most would say, smarter than him.

He doesn't know how to pronounce solder.

Hes a funny part of our community. Never worked with him so I can't speak to his tech prowess.

Leave work to work,

More. He said he cant keep track of how many colleges he's failed and dropped out of. Around 4 if memory serves.

yikes. if undergraduate coursework was too difficult for him, i would hardly call him competent.

grad is easier than undergrad desu.

Still richer than most people at g

Not an argument.

>our community
:^)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

well duh, grad should be "chill". students apply for that sort of stuff after realizing academia is cognitively feasible

He's competent at doing what he does. Being competent doesn't mean doing well in academia, which doesn't require too much competence.

I'd like to see him fix something without a CAD scheme.
He's no understanding of how components work.

>Being this retarded

moreover, students are incompetent by definition.

>Responding to a well reasoned post containing multiple points with "hurr retarded Durr"

Brainlet posting

It will be fun to see his score at apple when he finally snap due some incredibly horrid design flaw and people still giving trillions for dollars that company.

>he thinks his post was well reasoned and had a point

YOU'RE NOT THE BOSS OF ME NOW

I wish he’d stop making so many threads about himself.

>paint
He's not painting, he's just putting it on display.

>You do realize he frequently criticizes corporations and lead people who are literally worth so much more than him
The economists who crashed the globe in 2008 were also professional experts worth far more than any critic, this doesn't change the fact that they fucked up and that their statuses or worth don't invalidate their propensity towards fucking up and being legitimately criticized by those under who have to face the consequences.

His channel would be more interesting if he fixed a wider variety of hardware.

He constantly shits on Apple for not providing board diagrams (although he gets them), but if someone walked into his store with a non-Apple product would be a. have access to the diagram and b. be able to fix it?

>i would hardly call him competent.
I have seen "prepared" people like you sucking their toes in front of real problems, because a diploma means nothing

schematicsunlimited.com/l/lenovo

literally who?

I want to see you kick a ball without feet, it's a tool, dumbass. Apple "certified" service centers (supposedly) have better tools but still do a worse job than him, what's your point?

>not rossmanlet.png
boi

He's a competent repair man (a dying occupation of course, but still possible for now). He's a competent youtuber.

The market proves it.

He mentions that it's not worth it to fix a variety of hardware because a lot of times people aren't willing to pay reasonable prices to have them fixed, and he can't stock the parts for the thousands of different products that may randomly show up on his doorstep.

rosslet.jpg

If my Dell or Toshiba or whatever blows a random capacitor or some BGA chip breaks partially loose or fries itself, and I went to him, would he accept the work and be able to fix it?

I suspect Apple products have enough volume, are standardized enough, and are premium enough (so people want to fix not just replace), that repair places both find it worthwhile to learn them, and to stock up on parts boards and even loose parts for them.

>Would he accept the work and be able to fix it
Probably be able to fix it, accept it? Who knows. I think I've seen him do repairs on non apple devices, especially data recovery.

>>Would he accept the work
Would you milk a stone if you could milk a sheep?

Things that never happen.

In my experience, bullshit. Besides the above mentioned advantages of actually supported hardware, Apple also invests a lot more up-front than design and manufacturing than PC manufacturers, who are working with a small fraction of Apple's resources (design and financial).

Hes a repair boy. He is a competent scammer that is able to sell himself as some sort of tech god for wannabe tech people on Jow Forums. If you want to speak to a competent electronics engineer, speak to one of the thousands of electronics engineers with a PHD.

Ross man does not create anything of value, he spews his opinions and keeps you entertained with inane content.

You can get "PC laptops" repaired as well.
Fairly sure I've seen Rossman fix Thinkpads.

$2000+ "PC laptops" just don't break that often.

I watched one of his "repair" videos. His job is literally cleaning cum stains from people's computers. He also knows nothing about circuit design apart from reading a schematic. Your time is better spent watching teardowns by electrical engineers.

...Apple enjoys a big advantage in that its volume-per-sku is massive compared to the nearest competitor (even if they're a minority of the overall market).

What do you think is the highest-volume PC laptop sold today? I bet it's not 10% of any of Apple's products, and I also bet it's such a cheap piece of junk that nobody would ever bother to fix one anyway.

>watching repair videos

We only watch his rants.
They are top notch.

I genuinely believe Lenovo changed their mouse button design because of his rant on the Tx40 series.

>Thinkpad keyboard dies
>you don't care because the blast from the nuke killed you too

Post a video of anyone fixing any non-Apple laptop/computer/phone/tablet. For every one I'm sure I could post 1000 videos of Apple products being repaired.

So, which brand should you buy with repairability in mind?

>not a meme

...same is true of phones.

If you have an iPhone, you can get it fixed anywhere on earth immediately. Even in developing countries repair shops stock parts boards and screens and the like for all iPhone models since they're so common. If your Android phone breaks BEST CASE you wait days/weeks for parts to be ordered in, and you can forget about replacing any broken parts anywhere remote.

The only downside is it doesn't fulfill your need for conspicuous consumption.

False equivalency.

Good luck getting your OnePlus, HTC, Xiaomi, whatever fixed anywhere, wereas there are iPhone repair places on every other block the world over.

I haven't seen any non-POS PC that have no replacement keyboards available. I don't buy POS hardware -> no problem.

Imagine being an apple cuck.

OP asked if he is competent. I think he is competent at basic grunt work but doesn't understand the circuits he works on. He may be entertaining but if I wanted rants and drama I would go watch reality tv. Kim Kardashian has a better ass.
>I genuinely believe Lenovo changed their mouse button design because of his rant on the Tx40 series.
Maybe he is good at UX and maintainability but designers usually just do a representative survey of their customers. I doubt a huge multinational is going to base design decisions with huge product implications on feedback from one person, no matter how many youtube subscribers they have. Maybe it was a feature commonly requested by business customers.

I have a ~2 year old iPhone SE (not even overpriced). The charge port was getting loose (not surprising given hard use), so I went to a small shop in a second tier city in Vietnam. Guy pulled out an SE bad-board, swapped the charge port section, and I was good to go. Cost me like $20. I'd have the same easy, fast, and cheap experience if I need a new battery or screen.

Do you think I'd get the charge port of any non-Apple phone replaced anywhere in the world? Let alone in 5 minutes while I waited.

kek

Gets me every time.
I'm amazed Appletoddlers still show their face around here after being cucked this hard.

>so I went to a small shop in a second tier city in Vietnam.
Enjoy having your cuckPhone bricked by Apple's next killswitch update.

Yes. Rossmann even sells charge ports for various devices on his site. Unfortunately they did not work for my purposes of trying to repair a speaker.

>He screwed the Jew long ago
Dude, he's a New Yorker named Rossmann.

...I also replaced the battery ~6 months ago when I was in Canada. Cost literally fuck all (like $20 including the tools) and did it myself in a couple minutes. Again, good luck with any Android phone with an internal battery.

Two "N's is German.

...and for those saying something as exotic and unrepairable-seeming as the iPhone X is unfixable, it's been the best selling phone in the world since it launched, so suppliers and repair places will make it their business to figure out how to fix them, and cheaply.

>Do you think I'd get the charge port of any non-Apple phone replaced anywhere in the world?
Unlike your proprietary iToy piece of shit, the rest of the world uses universal open standards like USB whose specifications and pinouts are standardized across all devices on the planet. Why are you even on Jow Forums you tech-illiterate piece of shit?

I figured he was Italian from his looks. Never thought about his name.

He thinks everyone from Jow Forums who watches him is a dumb asshole and hates them.

He's a pretty cool guy.

You're not going to be a computer repair person after watching rossman videos. You probably don't even understand half the things he says. In one interview he even admitted that he became a computer repair person because it allowed him to sit in front of a camera and tell tall tales.

That's even more impossible when it comes to batteries and screens.
