Too expensive, and most consumers will be satisfied by a tablet.
People who really want power will laugh at the 940MX
Loaded with backdoors?
But it's good for the price. Still won't get it over a good 2 in 1 though.
wonder what the screen color coverage will be. 100% srgb? a real macbook killer then.
>$750
>expensive
What the fuck. That's like, 680€. That's pretty cheap for the specs and weight, not to mention it looks great.
>Loaded with backdoors?
>But it's good for the price. Still won't get it over a good 2 in 1 though.
You should be able to wipe it and put a good distro on it shouldn't you?
not if its hardware backdoors
nah we want thinkpad
Mobo is probably some cheap chink piece of shit with shared buses and shit, also where is the Ethernet port?
Yeah true I suppose. I thought apple wasn't to bad when it came to that stuff, at least not to the point of hardware backdoors
At this point isn't everything just a chink piece of shit?
Xiaomi is pretty hostile towards any third party software.
really makes you think
> >Nvidia GeForce 940MX GPU
Why? I mean, they could've install a CPU with Iris GPU and throw away that GPU.
>940MX
If the gpu is worse than an Iris 6200, it's not worth it no matter how you look at it
>dual core i5
If it's worse than a G3258, it's not worth it
I read that it's Asus mobo
>where is the Ethernet port?
welp, not there
Doesen't the usb type c also work as an ethernet jack if you have the hub to it?
Saw some type c usb hub with an ethernet jack on it

hey op, apple worker drone here - Apple is going to discontinue the Macbook Air line at the end of the quarter / early next quarter. You will be able to get sweat 'super airs' with 8 gB for like 900...its a no brainer.
Don't support da chinkbait. Get the laptop that will last and act as a comfortable sight to normie bitches, whom, by the way, have vaginas that feel even better than your tengu laden waifu stick.
butthurt xiaomi shill detected
I will tread even harder now, sucker.
Who the fuck still uses an Ethernet port these days?
rapists, feminists and terrorists
me. one for PS4, one for PC
hmm kind of disappointing about the graphics
I want to like it, why
Anyone that constantly pulls over 100Mbps.
That's just a USB Ethernet controller with a fancy plug, type C doesn't change anything there.
i do 250mbps over wifi
but then again, i also have gigabit internet
...
Get a better router?
OK

Better specs at lower price and no chink backdoors, why would I get that?
Because you are a shill?
it's fucking ugly
>Display: 15.6" HD Non Glare eDP 1366x768
kek
>15.6 inch..
>HDD...
>1366X768...
it would be bloody nice to have the card reader on the mi macbook though
940mx what the actual fuck for?
gonna play fucking GAMES on a laptop that can barely handle light tasks without overheating?
you people are fucking retarded to even consider this
indeed
28nm battery hog
14nm igpu
>gigabit internet
>250mbit over wifi
wow just plug the cable in will ya
i don't torrent on my laptop, fucko
that's what the my mini quadcore atom server does. laptop for browsing. also the main pc is wired as well
stop being such a dumbass american and get better internet/networking
>what are import rights
With import rights, shipping costs and other taxes this macbook air clone will cost the same as a Lenovo Ideapad 710S.
Which is both thinner and lighter and imo better looking.
Who would buy from Xiaomeme when there are plenty of similarly priced alternatives from established computer companies.
Why do you care how a laptop looks? I wound't care even if it had a fucking dick on the cover.
You can buy a xiaomi USB ethernet adapter for a couple $.
People who want to transfer files on LAN without waiting.
>You can buy a xiaomi USB ethernet adapter for a couple $.
or i can just fucking buy a laptop that has an ethernet plug instead
do your usb ports have leds in them? fancy
>one hdmi
>no displayport
so i literally cannot use this piece of shit to daisychain two displays
if i wanted to browse fucking facebook all day i'd get a fucking tablet
>low-voltage CPU
This meme has to end, now.
it's not mine, just a random pic from the web with a slim ethernet port that opens up when you need it
you know, designed by people who actually give a flying fuck
looks like a fucking macbook from 2005
Xiaomi is an established company
What do you want to do with two displays and a 940MX?
sure
in making rice-cookers and dildos
looks awful
>The air has more ports than the pro
Fucking tragic.
>HDMI, no thunderbolt or displayport
I thought this was apple, not HP?
>9.5 hours
Below industry standard
>16:9 apple laptop
Why does apple do this when work-oriented resolutions set them apart?
>those sepcs, and on a throttlebook
So you don't buy these except as a fashion accessory, right?
People who install linux on things
It can be kind of a PITA when OS X doesn't even have full ext2 support without a proprietary $50 driver+tools suite. You have to use a linux VM with raw disk access.
I'm euro you fucktard
Look at the time, they're all probably still sleeping
If you're gonna buy a Macbook knock-off, you may as well buy an Asus Zenbook, the ORIGINAL Macbook knock-off.
Plays nice with Linux, and less likely to have hardware backdoors.
this.
>xiaomeme laptop has a defect
>have to send it all the way to xiangdong or something
>then they send it foxconn in prague to be repaired
no thanks.
Looks like a nice little out-and-about laptop for the occasional game player. That 940MX is good enough to play most games at 720p 30+, and autism shit like Minecraft at full 1080p near 60.
Definitely better than my Macbook Pro 13" integrated graphics, but 16:10 screen with perfect font rendering spoils me. As a programmer the winning laptop is always the one with the best looking text.
same thing i do with the laptop display + two external ones. on integrated graphics. fucking programming. you know... work!
i'm also euro and these fucks wake up early and bother me on skype about retarded shit
>Definitely better than my Macbook Pro 13" integrated graphics
from 2011, maybe
>buying a lower-end Lenovo
Enjoy your questionable build quality and wi-fi reception.
It's a macbook clone. Even macbooks don't have ethernet ports these days. Shows how long you've been in the cave.
macbooks aren't a good fucking example, you retard. even if it's a clone, it's no excuse for not adding one
Well it would still be nice. Why copy something and not try to improve on a glaring flaw?
Because it's actually a feature, not a flaw.
>the 4th year of the 698th olympiad
>not touchscreen with removable keyboard
If I can't do serious computing on it, I at least want to be able to watch tibetan tragedies in bed comfortably with it tbqh.
>Release a product directly copying the Macbook Air
>Call it Notebook Air
Is their marketing department even trying?
>1080p
into the trash
>100% srgb?
no it wont
no one cares about that
let the graphic designers get their macbooks
macbooks don't fucking do 100% srgb
>Release a product directly copying the Vaio
>Call it Mac
Is their marketing department even trying?
>ultrabook
>power
battery life is waste it's at
>Intel Core i5-6200U 2.7GHz
>8GB RAM, 256GB SSD
>309 by 210.9 by 14.8 mm; 1.28 kg (2.82 pounds)
Basic stuff. Nothing outstanding.
>Nvidia GeForce 940MX GPU 1GB GDDR5 VRAM
Not really powerful enough for anything but wastes space and affects cooling. Meh.
>13.3-inch, full-HD (1,920x1,080-pixels)
Eh, a low PPI screen with 16:9 cancer for consumer plebs, at least it's going to be dirt cheap, right?
>Type-C USB for charging, 2x USB 3.0, 1x HDMI, 3.5mm audio port
Pretty basic too.
>40Wh battery, 9.5 hours
Very unlikely. Would be surprised if it lasts more than 7h.
>$750
Way too expensive for what it offers. Also what about the build quality and materials? Trackpad? Keyboard?
Air was unibody, Vaio had some meme design for the sake of meming.
Fuck off an take your memebooks with you.
What are you even mad about? I understand that you must be stressed doing your minimum wage job and all but it's not my fault that you couldn't get into college.
Don't forget the 12.5 inch version:
>Core m3
>128GB SSD
>8GB RAM
11.5hr battery vs 9.5 on the bigger one
>$500
Xiaomi soft bricked my phone 2 days ago with an official """"""""stable""""""""" update
Never pay more than $20 for chink tech
But will it run GNU/Linux? That's all that matters.
Well damage controlled Pajeet!
What the fuck? Is this fucking opposite day?
And I'm not that guy, either
>has no left arrow button
literally garbage.
Now that's a better deal, although SSD it bit small. The shitty resolution shouldn't be as noticeable on a smaller screen too.
Their battery claim sounds like bullshit tho, companies should be sued for lying.
Not thin enough
For people who go outside faggot fucker
>spending money on non aesthetically pleasing stuff
>ever
Are you the type who buys clothes from Walmart and gets a haircut from Uncle Stan?
Shove your commercial up your broken loose asshole. Looks like a laptop with an intrusive logo on it. Just like every other laptop.
>i5 6200u
>940mx
>only a 256gb ssd
>750$
I've seen better laptops for 600$, isn't chinkshit supposed to be cheap?
I hope China likes my lolis
>you will never cum inside one of henreader's lolis
Why even live?
What wifi adapter? Without ethernet, it needs to be linux compatible
kill yourself
>Ideapad
