pretty sure louis got a defective unit, there lad. I have no problems with video output via usb-c straight outta the factory.

the thermal throttling is a meme. it happens just as much as any other laptop

>keyboard is louder
I don't find it loud at all. And don't you cream your pants over mechanical keyboards?

>>61070012
Mechanical keyboards are great for at home.

Laptops are portable. Loud keyboards are annoying for other people. I wouldn't take my mechanical keyboard to a cafe or library and type on it, but I would take my laptop.

but it's not even COMPARABLE to a mechanical keyboard in terms of loudness. it's really quite average for a laptop keyboard (especially when you compare to other non-membrane ones)

you've never even used one, it's quite obvious. otherwise you wouldn't be using this as a main argument

>>61070049

all I'm saying is that they're decent for a laptop, and not a feature that's worth criticizing. you'll find a much shittier keyboard with the mushy keys in the Dell XPS 15, for example.

I got the new Pro assigned to me as a work laptop, and I'm pretty happy with it. (No, I am not a web dev thankfully.)

The keyboard is fucking weird at first but once you get used to it it's excellent. Every other laptop keyboard has wobbly keys after using it, and the tactile feedback makes you stop caring about the tiny key travel.
The trackpad is something you actually can judge from a first impression. They should have waited to remove trackpad buttons until they came up with this. (The extra "deep click" doesn't get activated accidentally, and the pressure is configurable. I disabled it completely because none of my applications use it.)

I'm not particularly happy with the cooling performance, but that's an acceptable compromise to me. All my real computing at work is done on separate boxes in the datacenter anyway.

The touch bar is mostly a meme. You can touch and drag from the volume or brightness icon to adjust them like a slider, which is neat. I don't notice the weird escape "key" as much as I expected to, mostly since I was already in the habit of ctrl-[ in vim.

I miss magsafe, but at the same time I like having power+video in one plug.

Not enough USB ports Yes, I know it's stuoid as fuck to dismiss an entire notebook on on thing. But imagine how annoying it is not beeing able to just put multiole things into it without using adapters.

Same annoyance I have with the "Edge" on my S7E. Annoying as fuck and destroys the whole otherwise amazing ecperience.

Why not just save up for a Honda Grom instead?

>>61066138
As someone who uses this everyday, it can safely be said it's not the fastest or most advanced laptop around.
But the OS isn't garbage and is finely tuned for the hardware. Making use of the same applications on a "better" Windows laptop is far less smooth. I have a higher-end ASUS laptop from last year and it feels like garbage in comparison.

Half a day or a day's worth of data might be very important to you if you use your laptop for work.

It has nothing to do with the fact it is a laptop. Many/most of the competition laptops in the same segment still have sockets for memory and storage, even if they include onboard (my laptop has 8GB soldered to the board and one SODIMM for expansion for example).

Apple is all about getting people to replace devices every year or every two years.
