> Beautiful 500 nits 2880x1800 IPS Display with thin bezels
> Huge and great trackpad
> TouchID
> Even thinner and lighter than previous gen Retina MacBooks
> Best laptop speakers ever
> i7 7700HQ + RX560, still gets 10 hour battery life (double than anything else that's comparable)
> MacOS + great Windows experience
> four Thunderbolt 3 ports with 40Gb/s speeds each (160Gb/s total, best i/o throughput ever in a laptop, extremely future-proof)

If you're not a poorfag, there's literally no reason to not get one of these.

I'm considering getting a max spec 15in just for watching anime/videos while I'm on deployment.

Macbooks are a fun toy to play with, but they feel less functional than a regular laptop with GNU/Linux or even Windows.

>weasel words
>useless proprietary ports that only work with price-jacked hardware and adapters
>caring how pretty a computer is UNDER the case, even though opening an Apple computer is hell

If you want a Mac that badly, get one, but not everyone who dislikes what you like is delusional.

>>weasel words
great argument!
> proprietary ports
Intel opened it recently
>caring how pretty a computer is UNDER the case, even though opening an Apple computer is hell
That image is just bait, but still, black boards are sexier.

12 inch iPad is superior for premium anime experience

Is there any reason at all to get MBO 2015 over 2015?

God just the keyboard alone is repulsive

>Sup Forums falls for this thread every day

>great argument!
Meaningless statements do not need refutation.
>Intel opened it recently
Cool. Still no reason to care if it isn't USB or DP.
>That image is just bait, but still, black boards are sexier.
Who fucking cares? Modern Lenovo is shit, but a laptop is supposed to be functional on the inside, not pretty. I don't care how "elegant" it feels because I'm not a touchy-feely fruitcake.

>no reason to care if it isn't USB or DP
But it is.
> a laptop is supposed to be functional on the inside
Most MacBooks are functional.

MBP 2017 over 2015 I meant to say

>But it is.
>Most MacBooks are functional.
Again: meaningless statements do not need refutation.

Unless you need that extra GPU juice, nope.

No cooling LOL

but it has phone-tier hardware. how is it even a laptop? more like a netbook maybe.

>horribly huge track pad with poor rejection and edge detection

>dongle hell
If there is a perfect laptop it certainly isn't that one.

Sorry, queershits aren't allowed in the military.

Why would they use chiclet style keys?

WOW SUCH PRETTY
pity the top spec quad core throttles so bad it has worse performance than any windows crap dual core machine

I think I got it right. Maybe.

Got a source for that?

shut up its craig federighi

Is that RAM soldered there?? how do I upgrade the RAM? Buy a new MacBook?

tons of custom parts is one reason why they're so expensive. Yeah, it looks cool but wtf is the point? Thinkpads have great reliability too. Also, the Surface is more comparable to a Mac than a thinkpad if we're gonna compare over-engineered and overpriced computers

Fucking bullshit
The 15in barely gets 4 hours of battery with light use, it's literally the reason why I went with the air.
Superior Steve jobs heterosexual design that gets 13 hours of battery and had full linux compatibility

It's been having major battery life issues, but you ignore it.
FAKE NEWS

The 2015 has staingate and massive throttling problems
If you need a powerful unix laptop get a system76 oryx pro

Yep, you got it
I wish that slimy gay fuck put a better screen in my air, but it was a nice compromise overall

9 hours when using Safari
4 hours when using Chrome

I'm a macfag and all, I had Apple laptops since iBook G3, but the keyboard on new MBP is garbage and the touchpad was also better on pre-2016 models.

Try 5 hours with safari.
It's a fucking joke that they're regressing in battery life and performance just to they can get on stage every year and say:
>muh 5% lighter
>muh 5% thinner
>le courage


And then you read about all the faggot "devs" that unironically use these pieces of shit for "work"
And I'm typing this on a mac btw

>Try 5 hours with safari.
I don't have to, because I tested it (2017 MBP 15") and it lasted 9.
Although that might just be a sign of declining QC and wildly varying battery lives across similar devices, I won't know unless I have access to at least several random MBPs form the same year

I had to use a pro for 3 weeks
The best battery life I ever saw was 9 hours with only iterm2 running nano, yes I used nano for 9 hours to write
Meanwhile firefox drops that down to 4 hours, and that drops further if you're playing a video or have more than 5 tabs open
Chrome generally did a bit better at 5 hours.
Safari is garbage and manages to be somehow worse performing than SeaMonkey and qutebrowser.
There's no fucking excuse for this.
Not only is the touch bar useless, it gets in the way while typing, and having to look down to use function keys is torture.
The trackpad isn't bad, but there's really no point to it being so comically huge.
The keyboard is fine for typing out a password or something but for actual writing I always had a keyboard connected, ridiculous for a supposed "desktop replacement" machine.
But the MAJOR issue with this heap of shit is the heat. I made the mistake of thinking I could use a demanding CRT filter on retroarch and the dumb fucking thing sounded like it was gonna take off to space. After 30 minutes of playing A FUCKING PS1 GAME it shut off to stop from overheating.
>3000 machine that's as capable as a netbook from 2009
What a joke
Going back to my 2015 air was a fucking breath of fresh air Jesus.

Wrong image OP

Greg Louganis

Hows the linux support?
Also isn't the battery life kinda shit?

Your entire life kinda shit user.

Linux installation seems possible but you need to hassle a bit.

Battery life is great.

>Not only is the touch bar useless, it gets in the way while typing, and having to look down to use function keys is torture.
The best part about the touch bar is that you have to hunch over your Macbook to be able to see the fucking thing while typing.

Yeah, why the fuck is it so dim?
Watch next year:
>Introducing the new TouchBar.
>Now 15% brighter

>why the fuck is it so dim?
Because they don't want it to burn in.

Moot

What a fucking joke, this is why oled is forever doomed to be a shitty meme

I'm legitimately curious as to how much they pay you. I could do your job far better than this.

>low res screen
>oversized trackpad, who the fuck needs that when keyboard shortcuts are more efficient and a better keyboard would have been more useful
>welcome to like 2004 in thinkpads
>that's expected
>heavily implying
>good chips, shit performance, there's thinkpads with 20h battery life
>you forgot to mention linux which admittingly (but only due to devs) works pretty well on mac, who gives a fuck about winblows or osx
>no normal ports
>some of the worst support, do you even watch rossmann

Thought you'd never ask user

Why? You could so many better things

Thunderbolt is pretty great
Can't wait until good laptops get more than one

>perfect laptop
>can't make you coffee

>proprietary firmware

>perfect laptop
>not the air or the latest x series
Fuck off nigger

Arch Linux works. The backlight dies on mine if I open the lid too much. It is in repair for 2 Months in China now..

>the air
>perfect
1440x900 TN is trash

Yeah never early adopt chink shit
The later generations of it will probably be great though, if my redmeme note 3 is anything to go by.
Yeah because having UI scaling on a retarded resolution is so much better right?
I'd rather have the 13, almost 14 hours sometimes of battery.

>Form over function

Triggered all the poorfags. Mission accomplished, user

Steve Jobs?

What are you talking about? Where did anyone mention their wealth?

True, wait for another generation. I'm already recommending it to friends who need a cheap good laptop.

Why isn't there a mouse on the mousepad?
