So /g/, it's 2017... Why are you still not using the best

fuck off

DONGLES, DONGLES EVERYWHERE

Also, what the fuck happened to MagSafe?

keyboard is shit

>>58275146
It was too convenient so they got rid of it

>>58275101
The only improvement is a bigger trackpad. Honestly.

>>58275178
I love how everyone on /g/ bitches about the keyboard but it is one of the most tactile keyboards most akin to a mechanical keyboards on a Mac yet.

>>58275101
obvious bait is obvious.
Otherwise, I already have a laptop so I'm not really in the market right now.

It's right here, familia

>>58275101
Cause its NOT the best laptop in the market.

>>58275277
Not even close. All previous models are more "pro" machines than this fucking vomit they put out. Even Dell and Lenovo shit on this piece of shit excuse of a macbook pro

>>58275101
OP can you get me in on the whole astroturfing/marketing/shilling scheme seems like an easy way to make some money from home.

>>58275272
>"these have 10 hour battery life"
I've consistently gotten 9-10 hours fag.

>>58275203
The 2015's keyboard is one of the best an comfiest, if not THE best and comfiest keybord (for a laptop) i've ever used. But the 2015's is pure shit. Those are just click, not actual key. It's like those who designed it never use a keyboard to type, or they just wanted to make it muh thin, so the laptop would be thinner. Which is stupid, because the 2015 macbook pro was already thin enough

>>58275190
Even that is kind of moot. Nothing wrong with the trackpad size on the previous version. I have a 2015 and I think it is perfect. Only dongle I have to use is for network port but that is very very rare. Other than that I think the 2015 version is perfect.


>inb4 mac is for babies


I can boot into Windows which I've also installed Arch alongside so I can use any 3 of the major operating systems. Eat shit

>unironically buying a donglebook

>>58275101
Keyboard is shit, no built in magsafe, emoji bar is a gimmick, no full size USB, no escape key, OS X looks fucking horrible, touchpad is way too fucking big, keyboard uses those godawful butterfly switches, no trackpoint (GOAT pointing device), battery life is worse than my fucking ThinkPad, needs several dongles which aren't even bundled and I'm not homosexual so I can't use it.

>>58275220
Dude, you're getting a Dell

You're also getting complete shit tier support in India, shitty ass Windows scaling on a high-dpi screen, and only PCIe SSD, not NVMe.

>>58275190
a friend of mine got his brother who bought the 13 " non-touchbar. After trying it, he came to the conclusion that the trackpad is too big.
I haven't tried it myself, so i don't really know, but is doesn't seems to me that big trackpad is a bad thing.

>>58275274
>a dongle for Magsafe
kek

>not alienware
DROPPED

>>58275315
Yeah because you are not fucking doing anything with it but texting your faggot friends at facebook.

2016 model is so fucking bad they removed even "time left" on top bar.

Apple damage control is going really strong.

"Apparently, Apple was working on a design that fit higher capacity batteries precisely shaped to fit the MacBook Pro chassis, but the design didn’t make it through testing. Apple made the fateful decision to fall back on a previous design using more standard square batteries, a decision that required pulling in staff from other Mac projects to finish the machines on time."

Enjoy Apple blowing a load inside your beta tester asshole.

>2016 model is so fucking bad they removed even "time left" on top bar.
They removed that from ALL macs, numbnuts, on 10.12.2.

>>58275437
ofc they removed it in all models.
Can't have the older ones have better readings.

They fucked up so bad, so bad that everyone has to take a load into their ass because of how huge of a catastrophe the 2016 model is.

Everyone has to suffer because of 2016 models.

>B-but it was not accurate

Why did they not remove it during lifetime of 2012,2013,2014,2015 model then? Why did they remove it in this piece of shit one which of everyone complained of shitty battery off?

You macfags are playing high mental gymnastics but the truth is you got courage'd inside your ass and are trying to justify it now. Fuck is wrong with you bunch?

how much more does Apple need to FUCK you until you stop eating shit from their hands?

>>58275376
>You're also getting complete shit tier support in India
as opposed to what gold standard of support? if you get a shitty unit you can return it in 30 days
>shitty ass Windows scaling on a high-dpi screen
you can literally have it shipped with ubuntu
>and only PCIe SSD, not NVMe.
except it is nvme

>>58275266
Seems like you picked 16:9 instead of best laptop

>>58275550
Unless they updated it after this article was posted in July, it is only PCIe

>Dell's XPS 13 is currently offered with PCIe SSDs with a capacity of up to 512 GB

Also...

>as opposed to what gold standard of support? if you get a shitty unit you can return it in 30 days
Apple, obviously

>you can literally have it shipped with ubuntu
This is the dumbest refute, in the history of them, ever.

>>58275203
the keyboard is the least of its problems

it's the shit battery life, graphical issues, lack of ports that make it shit

>>58275929
>Unless they updated it after this article was posted in July, it is only PCIe
PCIe is the connector, NVMe is the standard protocol for storage devices over PCIe.

seeing the dongles in action it actually doesn't look so bad

i pretty much only use a flash drive so a usb c drive wouldn't be a big jump. no hdmi is stupid, but its just one adapter. but then there's no magsafe. and then the gimmick bar. no sd slot. the fuckhuge trackpad. the bad battery. the bad keyboard. the lack of pro-ness. apple is finished

"It's not the best" aka "all I can afford is this 2011 thinkpad"

>>58275101
The chromebook pixel?

>>58275374
>Keyboard is shit
Only shitty part about the keyboard is the depth of Keys. The actual actuation of the key themselves feels fantastic.

>no built in magsafe
Agree

>emoji bar is a gimmick
It can be useful, depending on which applications that you use.

>no full size USB
not needed. Forced adoption and adherence to the new standard will accelerate development of native C standard products, thus benefiting the entire industry, even you people that hate Apple products regardless.

>no escape key
Yes there is.

>OS X looks fucking horrible
No it doesn't.

>touchpad is way too fucking big
How can a trackpad be too big? It's not like it gets in the way of anything that was already there, it just makes better use of the existing space.

>keyboard uses those godawful butterfly switches
Which have the most mechanical feel of any Mac laptop in years.

>no trackpoint (GOAT pointing device)
Trackpoint a shit. Louis, please go.

>battery life is worse than my fucking ThinkPad
I'm getting a solid 9-10 hours per charge.

>needs several dongles which aren't even bundled and I'm not homosexual so I can't use it.

Oh no, you have to spend $9 on a cable!
