The single most futuristic looking piece of technology I've

Yes didn't like it.

i loved the old macbook pro but this was not what i wanted.

If I didn't need to use USB A/B every singe fucking day I'd consider it. I can't fault anything other than the ports (and removing magsafe).

Sticking to my much loved '12 MBP for now.

It's pretty much the same thing over again. What is futuristic about it?

if i can install gentoo on it, sure ill get one

>>57739321
It is a tiny bit better performance wise
It has touch ID, and the touch could become good
The keys are pretty good, and actually made those old keycaps on the Macbook work on this.
The trackpad

>>57739077
Not gonna lie, OP, I'm jealous. I have a 2013 13" MacBook Pro.

>>57739321
U-USB C!!
Even though by the time everything finally uses USBC the next macbook will use some new bullshit port nothing uses

>>57739377
Performance for such a price is awful other than SSD speed. CPU still bounces against a 100c full load thermals.

Touch ID on a laptop is... Eh, I dunno.

I've not had a chance to try the keys but i didn't like the keyboard on the older models. Not enough travel.

That trackpad is huge, definitely nice, but I pretty much always use a mouse.

>>57739451
USB C is crap on it, only works well with the Apple dongles, but gets rid of magsafe. :(

>>57739758
looks like a huge piece of shit. Why would anyone ever want to use a touchscreen instead of a keyboard for a laptop computer? Not only that, a second HD IPS panel would likely cost more than a proper backlit keyboard. Am I supposed to look down at my hands constantly due to lack of tactile feel?

>>57739685
gotta admit, not that a look at them both, this looks like a piece of garbage compared to the macbook

>>57740127
Disregarding the fact that this only worked on some poor custom shit, the type prediction was the first thing I disabled.

The Touchbar is most useful for scrubbing and features of lesser used programs. For your main shit, actual keyboard shortcuts are faster. But I don't mind it,.

You have inspired me not to upgrade by 2014 MacBook Pro with an SSD and RAM. Instead I'm going to get this beautiful feat of engineering.

touch screen xps13 running linux much prefered

>>57740276
Obviously this.

Upgrading oneself with tools is in human nature since homo habilis is a thing, so are consumption and would ideally be its (ultimately) dystopian corporate transhumanism variant. Here goes a tree-chopping metaphor:

Windows is a club with some periodic minor UI refinements.

My ThinkPad is an ergonomic as fuck axe with state-of-the-art, always self-upgraded components made by some of the best engineers in the world.
>muh Unix learning curve

A MacBook is a beautiful axe that shows, or used to show, your social status.

I wasn't impressed by it when I used one at the store. I'm still wondering why there is a subset of people who will buy anything Apple puts out regardless of how good it actually is in actual usage. I mean I bought a Macbook Pro Retina a couple years back and it's pretty good but (like the rest of Apple's products) it has some glaring flaws and is really user-hostile in a lot of ways.

I work as a junior web developer (.NET and javascript) and I was saving to buy the most overrated laptop basicly to show off at a client's office and give a professional impression.
Besides that, portability would help a lot in the regards of workshops and college.

So much truth. Fuck you Apple. I loved Magsafe...

USB C is legit retarded. I have a 2015 MacBook and whenever I need to use a USB device, I must have decent battery charge because I can't be plugged in at the same time. Such a shit, impractical idea and it sucks compared to Magsafe too. Everything else about this machine is pretty much perfect.

>>57739077
Why did Apple switch to USB-C everything?
Why did they get rid of Magsafe?
Who wanted that new keyboard?
Even the proprietary SSDs were at least practically swappable, if expensive.
The only good change Apple has made to the Macbook Pro in the past 8 years was ditching the optical drive and including retina displays.
Seems like everything else is regressive.

I really hate about Mac is you need to buy whole thing and you need to buy the whole thing again if it's broken.

Just want to say that I didn't purchase Apple care but I brought a 2013 MacBook Air into the Apple store last week and they replaced: the battery, the hard drive and the motherboard. They didn't charge me for the parts or labour; I just dropped it off, picked it up again and paid nothing. Not sure if this is due to some EU consumer warranty laws or something. I'm in the UK by the way.

Looks like garbage. Keyboard feedback is really important when typing.

Emoji keyboard looks like garbage too, that's a two-fingers keyboard… When I heard of a "keyboard revolution" I was expecting something innovative, not the pure sliding-patented experience only Apple provides (because they're too garbage for loyal concurrence and innovation).
