If this is sold at a sensible price it could be a good alternative to the 13" MBP, with the added benefit of not having a shit-tier keyboard.

Sort of expecting MS to fuck it up somehow, though. Maybe by enforcing Secure Boot or something.

Why? This would be the perfect machine if it just had a 360 degree hinge instead of the detachable screen that the Surface Book has. I'll just keep having to hold out for the Surface Book 2 getting a price reduction.

>>60176808
SteamOS is Linux. I'm amazed how many games on Steam are available for Linux now. They are prepared, perhaps expecting to be locked out of Windows.

>>60177185
which is also shit

>>60177455
The reason they made this is because they realized people are fucking sick of detachable or not invertible 360 hinges.

Can I install linux on it or is it locked down garbage like their surface tablets?

>>60177521
it should be possible, just don't hope for the touchscreen to work.

>>60177464
Yup, 255/408 of my games have Linux versions on Steam.

Too bad it costs $1,700

>>60177484
It's been a while since I used it but I seem to remember my biggest complaint was it couldn't right click and left click at the same time.

Also m-muh proprietary software.

>>60175700
Does it have more usb slots than my dell latitude d500?

>>60177485
Then why would they make it a touch screen? Touch screens on laptops are uncomfortable and weird to use it you can't hold it like a tablet, and pen input is even dumber

>>60175953
wow what a qtie
thats how you sell laptops

>>60177611
It's one of those things where idiots are conditioned to think every screen is a touch screen so they press their grimy fingers all over non-touch laptops and I guess focus testers noticed this and added touch screens as STANDARD, allowing them to jack the price up another $100 for no reason.

>>60176079

If you're gonna do a comparison at least be honest about it. You didn't include battery life, additonal features i.e. touchscreen and digitizer for the surface laptop, you also singled out the build quality of the surface to just the keyboard, nor did you even compare prices.

Finally. A decent laptop with an operating system not based on deprecated 70s technology like macOS and muh UNIX. But I'm not going to buy it until the base model includes 8 GB of RAM. It's morally wrong to charge $999 for a 4 GB laptop.

>>60179961
Better aspect ratio contributes to usability, idiot.

>>60179989
>Just because that's all you've used it for doesn't mean that's all it can be used for.
It's the only thing it's really better at. All the shit you do with your finger can be otherwise done better with a trackpad/keyboard. Sure there is partly a preference but it's simply not a big enough point to mention it. The anon didn't mention that MBP got loading cable you can use for everything either while Surface Laptop got a proprietary one.

>>60180017
Why would it be? Applel uses great fucking SSDs, even if it's better, it won't be noticeable.

>>60180101
Is there a GOOD aspect ratio? that's just a proportion. Maybe if we consider that media comes in 16:9, the aspect ration should follow that rule

>>60180101
>All the shit you do with your finger can be otherwise done better with a trackpad/keyboard

All the shit (you) might be able to do "better" with a trackpad/keyboard. Again your lack of utilization doesn't take away from potential. Don't downplay features just because (you) don't use them.

>>60179967
Why?

>muh MacOS

>>60180128
You don't buy a premium laptop with integral GPU to mainly consume media or play vidya and for everything else 16:9 is inferior.

>>60180128
The only reason mainstream devices went to 16:9 was because of it being cheaper to manufacturer, that's it. It's objectively worse than 16:10, 4:3, 3:2

>>60180164
>16:9 is inferior cause I said so
really? and what's the proper aspect ratio mr. baitman?

>>60180157
But anon, it's not about you or me. It's objectively faster and more precise to move your finger slightly and push on a button and move your entire arm and touch a screen.

>>60180178
Depends on what exactly you do 4:3, 3:2, or 16:10 (plus other hipster shit that's irrelevant for laptops), regardless of what you do, these beat 16:9 for productivity. Why do you think screens for professionals aren't 16:9 trash?

Pretty cancerous on a laptop due the position. Have you even seen a professional do that instead of Wacom tablets?

>>60180181
I mean you look at the screen don't you? And you're obviously skilled enough to type blind right?
You don't need to look at the keyboard anyways, and you don't need to look away to interact with the thing you're looking at
I'll admit my touch usage is mostly limited to corners (start menu or closing specific Windows) or the sides (like scrolling), I still use it and have gotten used to having the feature, even if it isn't used 95% of the time I'd rather have it
And being a 2-in-1, it's pretty necessary to have the option
Of course this is a lot less important if you just leave your laptop on a desk at home all the time

Yes, and I've found myself gravitating toward the touchscreen everytime during periods of exclusive media consumption.

>Pretty cancerous on a laptop due the position. Have you even seen a professional do that instead of Wacom tablets?

I never said it was the best, but at least it's an option.

>>60180257
>you don't need to look away to interact with the thing you're looking at
But you need to move your entire arm, instead of keeping the fingers on the keyboard/trackpad. It's objectively slower.

>And being a 2-in-1
That changes things but unless I am getting something very wrong, Surface Laptop isn't.

>>60180284
>I never said it was the best
Well, then you agree with me that's it's objectively worse option. Sure it's one but unless it's best it's hardly worth the mention. Someone who really wants and cares about it, wouldn't consider laptops without touchscreens in the first place.

>>60180331
>Well, then you agree with me that's it's objectively worse option.

Worse than the best? Absolutely. Worse than nothing? No.

>Sure it's one but unless it's best it's hardly worth the mention.

This makes no sense. Something doesn't need to be the best to be worth mentioning. If it adds value to a product it's worth mentioning.

>>60180331
>But you need to move your entire arm, instead of keeping the fingers on the keyboard/trackpad. It's objectively slower
Are you fucking Stephen Hawkings or fat?

>>60180374

It's worse than the "stock" option, and having another option that isn't better ... well, it's not worth much.

>>60180255
I tap my screen to select stuff all the time, while using a real textured discrete pad (like ANYBODY who's serious about digital art would prefer over a shitty laptop screen+digitizer)
I also often fold my laptop up to get the screen closer to my face, so I need touch there

All of them depend entire on the user, someone preferring headphones won't even notice the better speakers just like someone preferring not to touch their screen, won't get any benefit from that.

And people who only browse Facebook and shitpost on /g/ won't notice the .8GHz throttle

I'm talking about it being an additional option for those that want to use it. You need to look farther than speed of usability when talking about mechanics and ergonomics.

>All of them depend entire on the user
I said arguably for a reason. I'm more inclined to believe someone will prefer a touchscreen enabled laptop to one with slightly better speakers (a claim that hasn't been confirmed yet anyways).

it's actually from the refractive properties of the fibers. it's synthetic, and when the pile gets pushed down, you're viewing more fibers from the side than the top. it has nothing to do with the cleanliness of it. the synthetic fibers stay pretty darn clean.

Not really, having used SP4s it feels pretty fucking good to the touch.

>>60182729
>What are the benefits of it though? Is it THAT much cheaper than aluminium or non shit polycarbonate?

Keeping in line with other surface products along with the fact that due to their new speaker design (beneath the keyboard) they needed a new material that would allow for sound to come through without disruption or distortion.

>>60182764
SP4 keyboard didn't get warm though.

>>60182792
That's a given considering it was literally just a keyboard.

>>60182729
it resists oils better than other plastics

additionally, the air gap between fibers makes it a poorer conductor of heat, separating you from the laptop's heat, making it feel cooler

basically, it's a "premium" material that does hold up over time, provided you don't take a razor blade to it, and MS is using it to set their products apart from apple.

>>60182764

>>60182815
>laptops made out of insulation material is a feature

>>60182837
did they give any indication as to what's under the fabric? if it's a solid substrate it's still going to attenuate some of the sound.

any modern laptop that would purposefully radiate heat up through your mitts isn't worth shit.

>>60182874
Many laptops do vent through the keyboard, it's a pretty effective design and allows for good sound penetration
But I mean you can't spill your mtn dew in it without breaking something so I guess it's worthless
