dell xps 13
thinkpad x1 carbon

buy it and install gnu/linux for a decent alternative to the macbook air.

it hasn't been updated in years. everything is better than that

it got updated last month just very minor

those are about another 500-800$ more

it's the same cpu

not used ones

>buying someones used cum stained laptop

i like cum though

Gotchu, senpai. Even the original model before updates is better than the Air, and you can find them for the same price.

>heavy
>no ports
>trash keyboard

ehhhh

base model Surface Laptop is pretty close.

Depends what you want to use it for. I bought my 2014 MBA 11 inch on eBay for around $375 a few months ago. Its a good laptop for light work, unless you're trying to replace one you already have. Then I'd say avoid any Apple laptops unless you want a bigger model (MacBook Pro) because the low power models haven't increased much and the normal MacBook sucks.

These are a lot heavier

Xiaomi Air 12

heavy?
it's .92kg you fucking twig

long skype sessions, twitch viewing, youtube watching, movies, web browsing, very minimal if any gaming. I want something easy to take with me and travel with but wont fall apart

I think you're talking about the MacBook or am I mistaken.

My MBA has served me well in all those areas, however I've never used it for gaming. Also remember if you get the MBA the SSD and RAM are both soldered in I believe so they can't be upgraded. I like it anyways OP, would recommend if you picked it up used.

>heavy
.92 KG, not even a kilo.
>no ports
USB-C, The ultimate port
>trash keyboard
Have you tried it?

There's literally no better laptop alternative.

What other light, 13-14 inch laptop can I get with better specs than this? There's shit for competition.

forgot to mention, heavy, brick-like IBMs with loud ass fans need not apply

>alternative to Mac

What are you even asking here? The only special thing about the MBA is the OS it runs on. If it ran Windows as stock it would just be another average laptop. This is just another shit-fling thread, isn't it?

really what does a macbook air weigh? 5th gen X1 carbon weighs under 2.5 lbs.

>waaaaaaaaaaa this laptop is too heavy waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Mac users...

it's fucking true! the only downside is the display

pic related, Macbook Airs would be perfect but the display is just too outdated

...

does it really overheat on regular social use?

top fuckin kek

13" is 1.35kg
11" is 1.08kg.

The macbook is lighter than the 11" and slightly smaller. Yet it has a higher resolution, brighter, and bigger screen. The only reason for sticking with the air is ports.

No.

I used to play heroes of the storm on my i7 MBA.

...

so a 14" X1 Carbon is lighter than a 13" macbook air and about the same weight as a 11" macbook air. And everything isn't soldered and glued shut. And it has a trackpoint.

Is there anything wrong with this?
