itt: memes you're glad to fall for

>>56691474
no one should have to fall for the 15" meme

>>56691474
>he fell for 15" meme
laptop bigger than 14" is too big. Ill give you a pass though I think footprint of xps15 isnt that big

>>56691474
My only complaint is that the keyboard doesn't have a numpad. It looks retarded having a 15.6" screen (as glorious as the screen may be with its tiny bezels) and this small keyboard that's the same as their 13.3" XPS.

It's the same with the thinkpads too. At least the T420/520. Same exact keyboard.

>>56691487
why?

>lighter than macbook pro
>DEFINITELY MUCH COOLER than throttlebook pro
>neat graphics performance, you can attach external GPU through thunderbolt 3 anyway
>skylake (soon kaby lake) quad core
>4K bezelless display that scales great in windows 10 and hidpi-supporting linux distros.
>more battery life than macbook pro

>>56691490
yeah, the bezelless design makes it smaller, it feels like 14".

>>56691515
oh and i forgot, RAM is not soldered, you can attach 32GB DDR4, same for SSD and watch your VMs rock.

>>56691474
shoulda gotten the XPS 13

>>56691515
>you can attach external GPU through thunderbolt 3 anyway
Which is the reason its pointless to have 15" version. You can just attach external gpu and a monitor to 13" one.

>>56691536
>dual core U cpu
no thanks. I need quad core (8 with HT) to compile stuff faster. It's also much better in encoding.

>>56691545
explanation above, i need quad core

Literally the only thing I can think of that's wrong with the xps 15 is that there's no numpad.

Honestly can't decide whether get my company to get me an xps 15 or a p50, both would have the same specs in the end.

It's an abstract kind of feel

Seriously If only it would happen soon.
Depending on the dedicated GPU In the refresh, it's either the XPS 15 or the New razer blade. Really hope it's the 1060.

Linux.

Comfy as fuck.

Lenovo has been asleep at the wheel in terms of their Thinkpads, they now all suck dog shit.
XPS on the other hand ticks almost everybox, it could only be better if it offered satisfying blowjobs every minute of the day.

>>56691558
>lenovo
why did everyone forgot about superfish?

>>56692135
I'm aware of the meme-tier chinkpads, but I was under the impression that their higher end machines were still pretty good (the problem being that they now make cheap thinkpads which are shit-tier, versus only making expensive good ones when IBM had it.)

>>56692155
Apparently we have a lot of lenovo shills on here on /g/ so of course they'll try to sell Thinkpads instead of the world leading XPS series of laptops.

I still prefer the feel of my carbon (main body) and the keyboard.

The XPS screen does look better, but even the new X1 looks great so I'll probably update to that in the next few months. Still gen 1 here.

>mfw my hardwork on XPS shilling finally produces good results

i feel content, finally thinkpad shills are btfo

>>56691474
I thought it was buying dell products, because I've had a bad experience with one of their laptops

I stil have my 2011 xps 15 and its still running great.

Hows the battery on the new xps?

Mine sucks shit. I bought the 9 cell version and only got like 3 hours charge when it was new.

After a year, the charge only lasted about 45 mins. Now I have to plug it in all the time.

Remind me why these are a meme again

>>56691474
Yeah.
I'm sure you're a shill.
Saw an OP with this exact image saying he bought one of these things, only mentioning the specs and not the price.
Even if you're not him, please fuck off.

Currently waiting for the Kaby Lake refresh of the XPS 13 Dev edition, it ticks all the boxes for me.

>>56694554
Hopefully it doesn't use fucking adaptive brightness like the current XPS 13 does.
