Being rectangular doesn't make it a macbook, calm down Steve

>>57010062
No but a brushed aluminum unibody with a chiclet keyboard and focus on beauty does. OP's link looks like Asus hired Apple's marketing team as well.

>>57010026
It has 1 combo audio jack too.

>The problem with fast, ultra-thin laptops boils down to basic physics. To prevent the laptop enclosure itself getting hot, warm air inside needs to be expelled as quickly as possible to the outside world. With ZenBook 3’s mighty Intel® Core™ i7 processor inside, our engineers had to invent a brand-new cooling system using state-of-the-art components such as a liquid-crystal-polymer fan impeller that’s just 0.3mm thick and a copper-alloy heat pipe with walls a mere 0.1mm thick. This innovative cooling system is a mere 3mm thick, and the warm air is gently routed through hidden vents in the hinge for efficient, serenely quiet cooling even under full load.

I'll bet.

>>57010125

A shitload of adapters.

Bet your ass you won't have the adapter you need at the worst possible fucking time.

Come on.

>>57010026
they give you a block with most ports as an adapter, though

but how much it cost?

>>57010041
>1 USB-C port

JUST!

When will these manufacturers learn that people who want a MacBook, buy a MacBook? Do they have no shame? The gall to call this thing 'the most prestigious laptop', was the head of marketing drunk?

>>57010649

it kills the macbook spec-wise
actually really impressive that they can go that light

>>57010711
>Display
>12.5" (16:9) LED backlit FHD (1920x1080)

>better than Macbook spec wise

No. Also Apple still has the best trackpad.

>>57010701
You should ask yourself the following question:
Are there enough people who like the look of apple products, are sufficiently tech illiterate to fall for Apple style tactics but still want to use Windows?
Asus thinks there are and if they make a profit off of this then they're right.

>>57010733
>i7
>1 tb storage
>16 gb ram
yeah, macs are better

>>57010701
>When will these manufacturers learn that people who want a MacBook, buy a MacBook?

Most people are pretty tasteless and will just buy the shiniest thing in the electronics store. Shiny metal and thinness looks ~premium~. That's why so many phones go with that look.

>>57010711
You should know by now that specs on Mac compared to Windows machines mean jack shit

>>57010764
version with i7, 1gb storage and 16gb cost 2k $.

>>57010764
What's the point though if the user experience is not as good because of inferior screen and trackpad?

>using anything other than MacOS on a laptop

Why would anyone do such a thing? Windows is only good for games and compatibility with the 17.3 quintillion registry defrag programs available. There is no reason to use Windows on a laptop.

>>57010041
>tacky gold trim
smdh

>>57010026
Hahahahaha THANKS BASED APPLE! CANT WAIT UNTIL ALL PHONES ARE WITHOUT 3.5MM PORT!

>>57010128
OR
they could make the laptop not ridicously thin and put proper cooling on it

I can't fucking believe it...
They fucking caved...

Atleast you get the adapter for free, right guys?.... Right?

>>57011387
go back to your stinkpad, grandpa

>>57010026
It's where the money is.

Can you blame them? Competing with Apple might drive some innovation for once.

(FUCK THIS NEW CAPTCHA)

>>57010125
Not a macbook.

Even if you can have USB 3 ports and Ethernet in one Chinese device, you probably just don't want this shit.

Buy any more useful Windows machine that prefers to be useful rather than superflat.

Cool. This means the previous line of zenbooks will go down and price.

This laptop is no competition for Apple. The laptop is not just the external form you tool, the whole selling factor is running macOS and being part of the Apple ecosystem of products. As usual gooks have no comprehension of these things past 'but it rook same?' and will continue to be puzzled when their clones don't sell as well.

Getting really tired of manufacturers copying Apple's bullshit.

>>57010026
Clearly inspired by apple design. The royal blue looks tits. If it runs linux properly, I'd consider burning money on it.

There will still be manufacturers who sell laptops that don't focus on looks or "innovations" after other companies become Apple Jr., right?

>>57010026
I've had two ASUS laptops. Both were absolute shit. Customer service consisted of dumb pajeets telling me to call Microsoft and Microsoft telling me to call the pajeets. I also couldn't install GNU/Linux on either of them and I was stuck with Windows. The build quality on both was utter dog shit and the charging port of the first broke after only 8 months. The second was made from such cheap plastic that the hinge snapped in the first month. Then none of the USB ports would work. Then it wouldn't charge. I just pulled the CPUs and RAM from both and threw them away. Horrible build quality and customer support. Never ever again will I buy another ASUS product as long as I live. Never.

2.5 hours at full load

>>57010026
if it shipped with a type-C or WiGig dock, then i could possibly excuse the single type-C port.

I guess get the ux410 or ux305 or something idk

>>57010128

>ASuS
>the u is silent

>One-touch access with Windows Hell

You either follow what the market leader is doing, figure out a way to disrupt the market leader, or die.

>>57013465
what if everybody dies

>>57013480
Then everyone dies and the market dies.

>>57013528
what if just apple dies

>>57013549
Then someone else becomes the market leader and everyone else copies them.

>market leader

>>57010041
it looks exactly the same

>>57013605
If one company makes up 96% of the market and then dies, you re-adjust your percentages to compensate. The company with 2% marketshare prior to the market leader dying can end up having 60% or more marketshare after the leader dies.

>>57013622
There's no glowing "I SUCK DICKS" emblem on the lid.

Don't MacBook pros do the same? This is the only thing that will turn me off buying one I think. I hear the macbooks underclock to keep cool.

> there’s still an impressive 0.8mm key travel, which is twice as much as some rivals!
Asus won.

This thing is really neat and much better than a macbook, but fucking christ its a pretty penny.

>>57015152
Not if you use Safari, which will play youtube videos with H.264 with hardware acceleration, keeping the CPU cool and power usage down. If you use Chrome or Firefox, youtube will instead play with VP8/VP9 which will turn your CPU into an oven.

MBPs only underclock themselves when under stress for extended periods of time.

Linux is pretty good on laptop provided the kernel used has the right drivers
