Considering getting a refurbished iPhone 5s. Good or bad? Or should I just wait for the keynote to crash the prices and jump to SE?

Borderline old shit. Pick up SE.
>>
>>62244749
You could get it from MY, and your stronger currency would certainly help, but the quality is a hit and miss.
>>
>>62244469
It's amazing. still using mine but as >>62244785 said, for iOS 12 it won't get support if apple follows its current trend. Also, the camera is shit.
>>
>>62245677
>the camera is shit
Damn, really? I thought it was good, which was why I had considered it.
And yeah, the EOL for it is really running close too. Thanks.

Who hype for iphone8?
>>
>>62242866
Can i dualboot linux and osx on mb air?
>>
>>62244845
Any shops to suggest?
>>
Just make it /fag/ and keep it as an inside joke.
>>
Most valuable (cheap and worth the money) mb air ? Which year etc ? is 4gb ram enough ?

I do a lot of web programming (Python, JS and sometimes C/C++ for embed systems as a hoby)

I travel a lot, and now I carry 14inch 2kg HP Elitebook from 2013, its great machine but its a lot of weight and space.
When I do work I have monitors and actual keyboard and mouse, so I barely use the actual laptop keyboard and screen. But when I do, its mostly in trains/buses and I have around 4-5 hours of work time while doing so.

The screen is 14inch but not full HD.
And I use external hard drive at times.

tl;dr
>I want small profile, light laptop
>As cheap as possible
>Small, but crisp screen, good keyboard
>LONG BATT LIFE ***

So... I think MacBook Air might be the one for me.
>>
>>62248599
XPS 13 with Fedora. Better computer than MB Air in every aspect except the trackpad.
>>
>>62248676
I actually use Fedora now, I'll checkout the XPS 13, we are talking about refurbished stuff right ?
>>
>>62248774
If you want, sure. Mine is a refurb and I have zero complaints, I got a 256GB nvme SSD and a 3200x1800 screen with excellent colors for a bit over 800$. This is impossible with Apple.
>>
>>62248799
Did you DIY change the screen ? How hard was it ?
>>
>>62248235
None that comes to mind, sorry.
>>
>>62248828
No, I bought the version with the QHD screen. You should log in to windows and run the exe to fix that retarded adaptative brightness thing. It's annoying, but it's a quick fix and you're done. The only thing I did change was the WLAN card since broadcomm drivers suck to install on Linux, and the Intel one has more range anyway. It costed me like 15$ and 3 min to change. If you want to avoid this hassle, buy a refurb with the Intel card.
>>

Could you recall what this application is? I'm suffering from this issue from time to time.

Long time iPhone user, realizing Apple is cucked but I love their phones. Any recommendations on brand and model phone I can uncuck myself with Apple?

What makes you think that Apple is cucked?

>>62249003
Saw a Tim Cook tweet today admiring they hire Dreamers. The Daca kids. But mostly tired of waiting for the iPhone 8 and wondering if there are comparable phones out there.

Google dell xps adaptative brightness fix, there's an official dell link and several articles link to it.

As an android fan I kinda agree. Yeah it's even extra faster than the iPhone 7 Plus but has no camera OIS. It's DOA to me.

Is there a reason for this? I'm looking for old macs to buy, the 2013 ones look to be the best pricewise. Aren't those also the last ones with upgradable storage/RAM?

Constant overheating and thermal throttling problems.

>3gb of ram in 2017 when phones are starting to come out with 8
???? Why does apple hate its customers and ram?
>>
>>62250928
do the new macbooks suffer stuffl ike this
>>
>>62250928
Does the 2017 models suffer the same ?
>>
>>62250951
>>62251006
Yup, I bought one and returned it for an xps 15. It throttles to 1.6 GHz during heavy loads (like playing youtube videos). GOD FORBID you run the cpu and the gpu at the same time.
>>
>>62251153
what the fuck... so pre 2015 pro models are actually better ?
What about the battery life of older models, I need at least 4h
>>
>>62251495
dunno but I'd highly recommend a used T420 business laptop if you can't afford an XPS 15.

Slap in a new 9-cell 94Whr battery in one and you got yourself 10 advertised hours of battery life (probably like 6-8 real life). A little heavy (4 lbs) but definitely worth it imho).
>>
>>62251495
The thermals on the T420 are fucking insane too.

3.2 GHz on both cores during prime95 and 2.7 GHz on both cores during prime95 + furmark. Truly a legendary laptop.

The 2017 throttles so bad, a used $600 2015 Latitude stomps it in performance.
>>
>>62251723
>>62251821
I do have T420, not as good as you describe it but still, anyway my main issue is the screen, its low res, it put strain on my eyes.

Thats the main reason looking for mbp
>>
>>62252150
Then get an xps 15. If you're gonna spend that much on a laptop might as well make it a good investment.

The 9560 2017 variant featured a 4K display.
