It really doesn't. I picked one up when a good deal came my way for $50

Without MacOS - the Macbook Air is the single most comfy laptop I've ever owned hands down. I still hate Apple overall but I can't deny how aesthetic this thing is

>>all day battery life
Mine gets about 6 hours. Not bad but it's half of what's advertised for this model and it's only about a year old.
>>solid metal construction
It's weak soda can shit. I'd like it better if Apple went back to using plastic. At least it was cheap to replace when it got cracked or warped.
>>HD display
Apple displays are average. Not the worst but not the best either. Extremely mediocre for the price.
>>PCI-E storage for unbeatable speed
This is a meme. I can't tell the difference between that and a cheap SATA 3 SSD when opening applications and moving files under 10GB.

Doesn't matter since it goes in a backpack anyways.

Read: bendable chinkshit.
>>cheapest notebook Apple sells
And it's still overpriced, especially for chinkshit.

My X220 is 100x more durable, easier to service, faster, stays cooler, and gets better battery life with the battery slice thing (nearly 20 hours SOT).Macs are garbage.

>>60238569
No doubt, I'd never pay over $75 tops for it but It really is comfy though, otherwise i'd sell it for $300 or w/e they go for on Ebay.

>chinkpad
Who wants a huge, clunky thing that was cast out of lead on top of them when laying in bed shitposting vs what feels like a sheet of paper? Plus the every present issue of the loose power connector from constant bumping with every laptop I've ever owned, this one just breaks free w/o issue. Yeah, it's a meme overall but some of it they got right.

The MacBook Air does have a fan, it's just never audible until you launch a game.
>>
BEZELS REEEEEEEEEE
>>
>>60239002
So you're mad your sister got one and you didn't is what you're really saying. Do you compensate for that with a boat-anchor stinkpad?
>>
>>60239105
Why would I be mad? I have an XPS 13 with a 13" infinity edge display (3200 x 1800).
>>
>>60231024
Whats the vommand to get specs to show on mac terminal like that?
>>
>>60239146
Idk you just seemed angry your sister had a Macbook but In fairness you may be right. I'm purposely four years minimum behind everything so cheap used tech feels 'new' to me. Although I really don't see a difference on such a small screen.
>>
>>60239193
>Although I really don't see a difference on such a small screen.
Alright m8 I'll be nice just this once: it might not be a bad idea to get your eyes checked. Something may be cause degradation of your visual acuity. My aunt got that before glaucoma took out one of her eyes.
>>
>>60239235
yeah like, I have a shit vision, wear glasses and so on

the difference is still noticeable, small fonts or logos will reveal whether the screen is 1366x768 or something higher. if I type a / now, that one really reveals that my screen is shit. screen size doesn't matter until you get to such a high DPI that things are scaled up.

however, it isn't the kind of thing that really jumps at ya. it only tells something about your vision if you really can't tell a difference even by trying to.
>>
It has a long battery life because it can't do anything other than open a text editor and sometimes a hypertext.
>>
>>60239348
Alright m8, better keep going to those eye check-ups just in case. You never know, my aunt's grandparents never had glaucoma so she that hit here really hard when they told her she had it and that it had gotten to the point of no return and surgery was no longer going to help.

bro, do you even aesthetic?

I've always been against apple devices, and swore never to own one. Then my school gave me a rMBP 2015. At first I was so fucking annoyed by everything about that computer. But now i must admit i really like it.

>solid as fuck build and lightweight
>flat even shape when closed
>that trackpad
>battery life simply amazing
>completely silent unless you play games
>doesnt overheat
>good implementation of multiple desktops
>16:10 masterrace screen
>good and loud speakers
>sufficient amount of ports
I couldnt comfortably use any other laptop without a mouse. With this thing I dont have the need for it at all.
There are some cons though such as performance inconsistency between different programs (lags and stutters when resizing windows for example) which sometimes really ruin the usage experience. Inability to close programs and windows from mission control. Full screen programs in separate desktops. And of course the price is through the roof.

Im not even a shill. It actually is a good device. Newer models i couldnt use due to lack of ports.
>>
>>60240684
how were you so lucky that your school GAVE you one?
>>
>>60240714
It is a rather prestigious graduate school connected with a top european research institute. They have a lot of €€€ its nothing to them
>>
>>60240684
I have rMB. One USB-C port.

I've never really cared. I just keep all my accessories, including HDMI, plugged into a USB hub on my desk, and when I sit down, I plug the one USB-C cable into my Macbook and I'm completely hooked up. It's like the return of docking.

Then I just keep a USB-C->USB/HDMI/Power in my bag for the rare occasion I want it or need it. Most of my other devices are slowly switching over to USB-C so it only gets used like once every two months.

I've never really wanted to use more than one USB on the go, anyway, most things are done wirelessly now.
>>
>>60240757
how do you deal with the 12 inch screen?

how?

I was skeptical as fuck about my ASUS zenbook, but I really like them for a 13".

>>60230795
>>HD display
>Are you joking?
1280x720 is HD sempai.
>>
>>60239053
My #1 complaint about my 11". It's from 2013 and the battery is only lasting about 6 hours so I'm looking at buying a new machine.

I was going to get a dell XPS as it's the only similar device. My coworker has one and has constant driver issues, and it's something I don't want to deal with.

I might just bite the bullet and get a macbook
>>
I do like my MacBook Air, but i would like to upgrade to a model with a retina display - its good for a TN display, but it's still TN.

Double tap with two fingers, and I started using full screen a lot more. I cmd-+ in terminal more often than not. The OS actually handles small screen size pretty well with Mission Control.
>>
>>60240757
The sheer portability of the rMB is appealing but i'm sure i'll find that CoreM painfully underpowered.
>>
>>60241477
It's about as powerful as an i7 MBP 2013.
>>
>>60241522

But i do enjoy the occasional bout of gaming, and while i'm sure most indie games will probably run fine it seems like literally anything with 3d graphics will shit the bed on a Core M.
>>
>>60241539
Yup, horrible for gaming.

I don't mind because I do all my gaming on my desktop PC anyways.
>>
>>60231024
You fucked up my friend. You threw out a ton of amazing features and functionality for what? Unity cancer? I really dont understand freetards sometimes. I actually prefer elementary on a ThinkPad and would use that if I still had one, but since getting an MBA I've come to learn that OS X is a great OS. Not even shilling.

>>
>>60238977
Keep telling yourself that. 1366x768 on a slightly bigger screen (12") is fucking cancer after using a 14" 1600x900.

It ruins the X230, that resolution is so cancerous after 1600x900 on T420 that it makes me to want kill myself. It can't be any better on a display which is only 0.4" smaller. 1366x768 is shit and it needs to die
