literally botnet. into the trash.

Linux support is bad

Why is Chrome such shit on low power devices?

Edge HTML5 video playback is far superior.

Microsoft know what they're doing. Google is now a liberal focused cancer

It does look pretty good, but underpowered compared to my Thinkpad so I'll pass.

I thought the thinkpad meme was in part because of its expandability. This doesn't really have that.

The official laptop of Sup Forums is the rMBP.

>intel atom
0/10

Well then this can be the new budget king. Ultra portable travel book

Intel Atom is OK.

> Windows 10

Cherry trail was basically abandoned by Intel, thats why all of these are so cheap. It will never have good support.

Enjoy getting chinked.

The Chuwi Hi8 Pro does this, but it's $90.

>>licensed windows
what difference does this make?

>plastic body
Plastic bodies survive drops better than metal, as long as it isn't brittle plastic.

Literally shut the fuck up, you meme spouting child.

>Jumper

How about you go fuck yourself.

He is right tho

>150 dollars

but otherwise total garbage

>working USB 3 ports are a lottery

Meanwhile for $150 you can buy a used Chinkpad or other business laptop, a new battery, and an SSD for it, and it'll probably work better.

looks like cheap junk. get a job and get a mac. stop running anti-virus and masturbating to cartoon porn.

Thanks user, i'll keep this in mind for when my mom will want a laptop.

My mom is a total ignorant about computers, she will not complain about it, it will be easy for her to carry around and my family will not waste money.

Thanks user!

No problem friendo :)

you losers really do live in your own little world

>used Chinkpad (especially if you go for a T60 or X60) is $80-$100
>SSD is $40 (120 GB SSD is still better than the shit in that Ricebox)
>new Thinkpad batteries can be gotten for $20, I spent $20 on a brand new Lenovo factory sealed X200 battery

looks like trash / facebook machine

I've been thinking about getting a cheap chromebook but I might get this instead.
Thanks OP

How well does it run Linux?

It's truth, not memes.

>On par with chink tablets
>It can for the reviewer in OP
>150 dollars
>Not true at all. Doesn't go near those temps
>Also untrue

STOP USING CHROME ON SHITTY LAPTOPS

>On par with chink tablets
Which are beaten by old Core 2 Duos because Atom is shit.

>It can for the reviewer in OP
Thank you for reinforcing the point that it's a fucking Chinese lottery.

>150 dollars
I can get an X60 right now on Ebay for $90. I can replace the battery with a brand new one for $20-$30. I can then put an SSD in for an additional $40. And in the end I end up with a product with better build quality and more storage space than shitty onboard eMMC.

>Not true at all. Doesn't go near those temps
The review in the post I linked to showed it going up to those temps with nothing but fucking monitoring tools open.

>Also untrue
Again, review in the post I replied to literally stated that working USB 3 ports are once again up to the Chinese lottery.

Just fuck off Pajeet and stop trying to sell your Aliexpress garbage here.

The budget king is a used ThinkPad with a 9-cell battery.

It's a chinkshit laptop. It was never going to have any support.

there's no way that they're not gonna get a lawsuit from apple

They are chinks.

All ultrabooks looks like that, not even the worst offender.

Some have a cloud logo on the back.

I just have a surface pro first model with a battery cover. It's still chugging along pretty decently in performance, gets like 8 hours on a charge, and also it's a fucking cintiq basically. probably could get it with the battery cover for like 500 total now.

I had one of those and it was good but heavy. Must be twice the weight of this new meme.

What are they using instead?

But think of the possibilities for a Linux user

Nothing. Intel cancelled the successor in April, and the Atom is officially a dead product line. Things like newer Celerons offer similar levels of power sipping with much better performance.

Think about how much we shit on cheap Celeron laptops for shit performance then realize that Cherry Trail is even worse than that.

I am using a baytrail tablet right now and it performs well enough. So what CPUs will newer tablets use? Stuff like core-m still has a too high tdp

yeah it's definitely heavy if you try to use it as a tablet. But i mean, what are you looking to do with your laptop, hold it in one hand like a waiter holding a tray and jack off with the other? It's gonna be on a desk or in a bag most of the time

Like I said, probably ULV Celerons and Pentiums. You can easily get 8 hours of battery life with those CPUs in a $200 11" laptop, I'm sure they can manage 6 or so on a 10+ inch tablet.

Everybody else is just buying up the old stock to put out cheap shit tablets and laptops to try to cash in on at the last minute.

hello, chink damage control

Eh. I like my X205TA better. It may suffer from 1366x768 and fucking 32gb eMMC storage but it does everything I want and need it to.

/jeg/ when?

Are those pentiums and celerons passively cooled though? Also weren't there celerons based of atom cores? If there's one meme I want to stick around it's portables with no mechanical devices apart from a hinge.

Plastic is a terrible conductor of heat, so it wont passively cool.

>Are those pentiums and celerons passively cooled though?
Generally no, but it doesn't change the reality that the Atom architectures have all been dropped and retired.

>Also weren't there celerons based of atom cores?
Yes, you're correct about that, and to my understanding they were a step above the Atoms from those lines, but they're still retired now. Sorry buddy, you gotta either wait, or deal with shit hardware. Not to mention the vast majority of these "passively cooled" devices won't work properly because the shell is plastic which only makes heat issues WORSE without a proper set of heatpipes and a fan.

Eh it's fine for now. I've got an asus205ta and an i7stylus so I'm at both ends of what's capable with passive machines.

Super battery, weight and temps on the 205 with poor performance and screen.

"decent" performance, good screen and SSD on the stylus with a copper shim in the heat sink with poor battery life and too heavy.

Fuck, guys what do I do? I just want a good, sturdy laptop that can take a beating and allow me to play and make my tunes without freezing up.

When did Laptops become such a fucking jew filled cash grab.

>When did Laptops become such a fucking jew filled cash grab.
gee I wonder.

This isn't your top secret desktop just something for regular on the go computing

I'm glad I don't need a laptop anymore. If anything id like a super cheap ultra portable to shitpost from but many of them have shit battery life.

Yes, 1080p is a plus.

If you say otherwise, you're trying to be an asshole.

Well that's the other thing to.

My old laptop that died had around 8-10 hours battery life.

All these new ones, it's like 4-6, I've even seen ones that only offer 3. Like what the fuck.

I've been out of the laptop game for a long time, but this shit unacceptable.

I might as well just build a portable desktop if I'm going to have to be glued to AC outlet regardless.

16:9 is only a plus if all you do is watch movies and TV shows made in the last ten years.

Or plug your laptop into your TV to watch shows with friends and family.

Yes, that's how people who aren't assholes spend their time.

Well TVs normally are 16:9. I'm talking about monitors though you fucking dumbass.

>thinkpad meme

Monitors are most popular in which aspect ratio?

Oh yeah, that's right, 16:9. Because the vast majority of people aren't either photographers, or enthusiast fanatics who hate everything other people enjoy.

That's cool and all, but 16:9 is still shit for anything but media consumption. I don't have a laptop for watching movies. I have a laptop for a portable computer.

Really? Because I draw autocad on a 16:9 screen, two windows split into their own 8:9 regions, almost perfect for the job.

Neat

OK for 240p video playback and Facebook browsing.

maybe like in 2010 but not now

It's a laptop, its primary purpose is portability, not power. Atoms are the perfect laptop CPUs.
>OK for 240p video playback and Facebook browsing
Even an Atom N270 is far more capable than that and it came out in 2008.

Can this run linux with no problems?
Otherwise my x201 is perfectly good enough

no

>almost perfect

keep believing that

It can fuck off then
