Why have you not joined the Intel Kaby Lake master race, /g/?

give me a link where i could by any of those
i'll wait.
>>56957121
I'm saving up for this instead. Skylake should be more than good enough considering my newest CPU is currently a Penryn Core2 Duo.
>>56957121
Shitty windows laptop build quality
>>56957121
kaby lake is just an higher clocked skylake with some new video hw acc.
early reviews indicate that just refreshing a laptop with kaby lake isn't smart when cooling skylake was already hard for your chassis:

seriously not buying any laptops til powered by usb type c takes over
I ordered the Zenbook with the Intel M3 for $639 and plan to install Antergos on it. I was originally going to get a Macbook but I was a little annoyed that the only port on it is USB C and I plan on watching Chinese cartoons without bluetooth headphones.

the 2016 12" MB has headphone jacks yo

Really? Well, egg on my face then.

Is it possible to be so retarded that you don't even visit the product page of the item you were going to buy? Please explain how you were close to buying it if you didn't even know what it looked like?
>>56957431
I thought that was some some proprietary Apple Kensington lock since it's so far back and with all their talk about being brave enough to ditch headphone jacks, I actually thought the Macbook didn't have one.
>>56957458
it came out months before the iphone 7 and it's a fucking laptop not a phone. not to mention it doesn't have a fucking lightning jack
>>56957494
Oh well, hopefully the Asus laptop plays well with Linux.
>>56957458
>since it's so far back
The rest of the housing is too thin to accommodate. No Apple laptops have Kensington Locks, there's also no such thing as a proprietary Kensington Lock.
>>56957121
That's fucking retarded. Why are laptops so thin now? Make it an inch and stick a 100whr battery in there or something, fuck.
>>56957494
It came out March 2015.
Have an Asus 303la and I couldn't be happier to be honest. Makes it even better that I got it for free scamming Amazon.
>>56957586
Good thing we're all anonymous or I would have deleted my account.
>>56957595
No man, fuck that, make it 3 inches thick, 17 inch display and put a 350whr battery in! Thank god nobody lets you teenage autists design anything, it would literally be that '/g/ designs a phone' but for laptops. To make a battery that big your laptop is going to look like a Sager. You're retarded, never post again.
>>56957595
Because people like portability and laptops are meant to be portable.
>>56957624
>macbook pro packs a 99.5whr battery and high-end internals into a beautiful 0.7" package on a 15.4" laptop

>>56957701
One of the reasons why I love the rMBP.
>>56957162
>QHD on a 14 inch screen
it's like you want three minutes of battery life
>>56957600
The 2015 model came out then retard. The 2016 came out this past April.
>>56957772
Got one for work after a life time of windows craptops. It's unreal how far away it is from anything I've used before. I can't believe a laptop this perfect exists. OSX is pretty nice too, at least for work. It is the perfect example of gestalt.
>>56957306
Looks like battery life has improved dramatically. The QHD+ model almost matches the battery life of the 1080p model of the previous generation.
>>56957701
>>56957772
Same here, I love the 800MHz throttling of my iToddlerBook as well!
>>56957808
They are physically identical. What is your point?

You're a literal retard if you get anything other than the XPS 13.
>>56958083
>no dGPU
>barely handles the heat
At least this thing has an excuse for being shit. It has a dedicated GPU that's about twice as good as the Iris 540
>>56957121
>You can either have silver or pink
I've yet to actually be burned by an ASUS product but god damn their aesthetic selection is hot garbage. The X205TA would look great if it wasn't this disgusting shade of navy blue and was matte black or gray instead.
>>56958154
XPS 15 has a dedicated GPU and it has the same footprint as the 14" Asus, while having vastly superior battery life. No laptop can come close to matching let alone beating the XPS series.
Are you going to use the "Dell logo" excuse now, fucking Asus chink shill?
>>56958185
You said the XPS13 you faggot. The XPS15 is going to have shit battery life and it's going to be twice the cost of the ASUS. If you're going to get a XPS15 you might as well just wait for the next MBP
>>56958219
>>wait for the next MBP
>calls someone else a faggot
>>56958219
The Asus has a fucking tiny battery, the XPS is going to blow the shit out of it in that department.
The XPS 15 is the same size as the 14" Asus, yet it packs a 99Wh battery, what the fuck excuse can you come with Asus including an anemic 48Wh battery?
Also Kaby Lake XPS 13 just dropped and the 940MX is barely faster than the Integrated Graphics on the i7 model.
>>56958083
>whines about giant bezels
>suggests a laptop with a giant bezel
kek
>>56958315
Off yourself, I have yet to find anyone on this planet that's as retarded as you are.
>>56958333
The bottom bezel is like 2 inches thick, it's hideous. The screen should've been centered, that way it wouldn't have to have the NostrilCam either
>>56958376
The Asus has an even bigger bottom bezel to accomodate that ugly as fuck oversized logo. The bottom bezel is still smaller than most laptops, it only looks big because the other sides have basically no bezel.
Maybe use your fucking brain next time you actually try to shit on the XPS.
>>56958407
I'm not arguing for the Asus laptop, I'm just pointing out the the XPS has a gigantic bezel. It's quite ugly.
>>56957917
Context you mong. Read the fucking backlinks. The discussion is about the 2016
