Especially thin laptops.The Macbook Air M3 weighs 1490g.The Huawei Matebook X weighs 980g.Who does this stuff appeal to? They're easier to break, and they're less powerful than thick laptops that weighs 3-4 times as much, since there is much more powerful hardware instead.
they appeal to me because i dont have peasant hands and i take care of my property. poor construction workers may need to buy ugly stupid looking devices.
>>100083493this. I am sophisticated. a supreme gentleman. of course I use a thin laptop.
>>100083493>immediately powertrippingWhy are pajeets like this?
>>100083549this person is happy and in his lane >>100083561this person is enraged and resorts to childish insults as a coping mechanism. very telling who has the wealth in this equation
Thin laptops have shit cooling. Macbooks are known to overheat
>>100083456I have the m1 MacBook Air. Being really thin and light means it is easier to carry around, more comfortable to use when not at a desk (in bed, standing, on your knees on a chair, sofa etc), and when you are at a desk it is much more comfortable to type on because no ledge to jam into your wrists.I am a medical student an really like it. They are meant for people who move their laptop around regularly and it is amazing for that. Obviously if you're just using it at a desk all day playing games this doesn't matter.There's nothing to gain by it being thicker, it's fanless, never heats up and is extremely fast. It is very sturdy because it's made of metal, presumably like the Huawei one is and definitely bends less than average plastic windows laptop. I have the base spec 8gb 256gb 7 core model.
>>100083561Wow you called that one fast. Why don't benchods just stay on their own websites? The second post makes it quite obvious.
>>100083707>it's fanless, never heats upthat shows that you don't use your laptop for more than probably just writing an email and watching a netflix movie in bed, or else you would know how quick a macbook heats up, throttles and just dies
>>100083729that shows you haven't used an m-macbook for anything, short of running a local LLM on it you'll never feel it getting warm
>>100083707Why do people say "it's easier to carry around" as if it means anything? The difference between 1kg and 3kg is so minimal. Unless you're a 10-year-old child, carrying an extra 2kg around feels like nothing.
>>100083883it's a massive difference, nobody is taking their 3kg gaming brick to school
>>100083883If you pick it up with one hand there will be less leverage on it, and it's pretty common to grab the laptop by the lower left or right corner with the lid open.That said my x380 Yoga is fine when carried like this. Unless these days you're expected to type with your hand in that position and it's not cool to rest the laptop on your forearm while typing on it while standing.
>>100083493>they appeal to me because i dont have peasant hands and i take care of my property. poor construction workers may need to buy ugly stupid looking devices.
>>100083456>snaps you're laptop in halfno hard feelings bro
>>100083883I'm 6'4" and far stronger than an average person. You do notice it compared to average windows shitbook but it's mainly when moving bag to desk or balancing it on something/using standing.>>100083729I run complete anatomy on it and it doesn't seem phased at all. Doesn't seem phased if I have 20 safari tabs open and 10 pages documents, load of PowerPoints etcLet face it though 95% of people won't ever use anything more than safari and pages and it's really good for that. It is for work, not for playing video games on.
>>100083883It’s not that minimal when you’re carrying it around all day every day. I went to college with a 15” laptop before switching to a 14” thin laptop and it made a big difference. The loss in performance was well worth it.
>>100083707>>100083456I thought they made tablets with attachable keyboards for this exact reason
>>100083456>less thinholy mother of ESL
Seems like a nightmare to repair
>>100084017>I'm 6'4" and far stronger than an average person. You do notice it compared to average windows shitbook but it's mainly when moving bag to desk or balancing it on something/using standing.No you're not, Dikshit. I'm 6'4 and the weight of a laptop is completely irrelevant to me. I want specs because it's a tool.
>>100083983thats basically like mt wrist
>>100083456>tfw cant grab your laptop from an edge because it will snap >>100084164You assume that the niggers going out of their way to buy this stuff ever have or would unscrew their laptops.

I know someone with an HP laptop that blue screens if you pick it up from the corner because it makes the motherboard flex. Pretty amazing stuff.

>>100084971anon, electricity doesn't care which dimension it flows. The mobo clearly is damaged for other reasons
>>100083456>Huawei Matebook Xwhy are there three different versions popping up? Is Huawei retarded who the fuck gives the same name to all its products at least change the design.
>>100085552>Huawei Matebook (low tier>Huawei Matebook X (mid tier)>Huawei Matebook X Pro (high tier)I think it's pretty simple.
>>100085573I found 2018, 2022, 2023 all have the same name only difference is the gpu/cpu and price of course. Its retarded.
>>100083456Obviously the Chinese will make it lighter as a gimmick, probably with huge trade-offs. Macbook Air is great though, killed netbooks.
>>100083954I honestly would to work if I wasn't forced to use a chromebook
it's a perspective trick you idiots, it's thicker in the center
Thin device equals smaller battery.
>>100087813It's not about the size of the battery, but how you use it.
>>100088065it's both, retard
>>100083707Nigga I’m a doctor and me and everyone else used ipad in our medschool years lol
>>100084101They do.100%, tablet + bluetooth keyboard attached to its case is even more practical than any laptop for word processing and internetz. It is a popular configuration. Jewppñe tablets are even designed to make this configuration a little easier to set up.Macbook fags are cucks.
>>100084164they are
It's goyslop for civilian consoomers, all local professionals use Dell or Lenovo machines of any kind. All the laptops used by businesses are Latitudes or Thinkpads, most don't try to be absurdly thin.
>>100083620>pajeet is an insultI wholeheartedly agree!

>>100084017Henry Cavill is 6'1 but has baby hands. Post those hands bitch
>>100083456Why can't they make a phone this thin? Everything is thick as fuck these days.
>>100090390 a phone less thin a coin
>>100090451Yeah. Imagine putting it in your wallet or a jacket pocket. Now phones are that big they have to increase pocket sizes.
>>100090484Ever tried wearing clothing not made for faggots? You faggot!
>>100091013im not faggot lol
>>100083456where is the battery for it?
>>100083456not sure since everyone who used to care about this went for tablets with detachable keyboardsthat way you get a keyboard when you need it and can ignore it when you don't
>>100090390Sure you can. But every phone nowadays needs 15 cameras and an in-built toaster.
>>100091333True. I guess it would be a niche. I wonder how much traction folding phones got. I considered buying one but they're still pricey.
>thinner than a coinwho is the target audience?why would you want your portable overpriced toy that you're meant to carry everywhere in the real world to be structurally weak and/or have poor battery life (and thus portability)Looking at how thin it is, imagine just how many times better it could be with "huge" battery cells that would still keep it under an inch thick, have stronger hinges and won't fold like a piece of paper.I understand the appeal of being thin, but surely going THAT thin is unhealthy
>>100083456wumaos and their fakeass marketing with literal fucking wumao coins. just because the edge tapers to paper thinness doesn't mean the laptop is even close to being that thin.
>>100090390>>100091423shut the fuck up you dumb fucking wumao. literally every relevant phone is thinner than 13.5mm.
sounds awfully delicatenot worth it
>>100083456It's not really necessary, but if it can be done without compromising durability or battery life then it's nice to have.

>>100093689it's considerably thicker than a coin (most are <3mm thick). macbook air is only 11.5mm thin at it's thickest. the wumao is using camera angles and a tapered edge.
>>100083983Ok this made me kek
>>100083983Wristlets btfo'd
>>100091350They seem to keep making them every year because people keep buying them. Probably because everything else is so long that it jabs into shorter people's pelvis when they try to sit with them in their front pockets. Of course you don't want to brag about having one because for one thing, it's not an iphone like a DECENT FUCKING HUMAN BEING would have, and because it marks you as a FUCKING MANLET WHEN WILL YOU LEARN NO ONE FUCKING WANTS YOU (women can just use a phablet in their purses).
>>100083456>is less thin a coinESL moment
>>100083456What is the practical purpose of a laptop that thin? It will probably get bent.
>>100093684So, literally nothing. Drop the vegan diet, it's ruining you.
>>100083456Applel started this trend and everyone just copying them because if you don't copy Applel nobody will buy your device.

>>100083456Less weight = less material cost = less shipping cost = more profits
>>100083456>Who does this stuff appeal to?I don't care, but it would be great to get super thin mini pc, a big one like that I would prefer thicker for more battery.>Easier to breakAgain with the complaining, I bet you would be just as whiny if we get holographic displays like in The Expanse, since it could break easily or clip through things.
>>100083549I miss him.
>>100087813online reviews seem to suggest it holds up quite nicely so maybe they did something else. I assume its the passive cooling that cuts out a lot of stuff.
>>100083456Why did we let them convince us thin is better? It absolutely fucking isn't, I like a laptop with bulk nowadays.
>>100083493That's a very verbose way to say you're a faggot
If it's thinner than an ethernet port, I don't want it.

>>100090070>less thin thanwouldn't this be more thin than?
Thinner the device, thinner the wallet afterwards.
>>100085476Yeah flexing can't weaken connections or anything. I twist my mobo all the time with no problems.
>>100098510Not exactly wrong, but thinking depressing thoughts like that and being really negative isn't going to make anyone like you. Then that feeds back into your own self loathing. Which is probably why the author of that comic trooned out, freaked out, and deleted and burned everything he made. Speaking of which, you happen to have an archive?
>>100084017>Let face it though 95% of people won't ever use anything more than safari and pages and it's really good for that. It is for work, not for playing video games on.>safari and pages >workThat's not work.Work would be compiling software, running AutoCAD or Photoshop or whatever faggy program designers use. The use case you described is absolutely irrelevant for any kind of benchmarking. My oldest 2011 laptop can run "safari and pages", you stupid retard.
>>100101688 (me)Also the reasons people are being so elitist about superficial things like laptop thickness and battery life NOW are a little different from what they were when that comic was written. Competition for a job, friendship, love, or a place to belong is stiffer than ever thanks to wider global availability of transportation technology, immigration, social media, and increasing levels of category hatred across the board, so it's more important than ever to impress upon people the notion that you're desirable. This also makes people hypersensitive to any kind of criticism and quick to either conform and look down on those who can't or don't, or lash out.
>>100098510> You don't get to decide what is worthwhile or meaningful to you.> Other people don't get to decide what is worthwhile or meaningful.> I decide what is meaningful, and according to me you're wasting your time with every endeavor you take and you're living a vacuous and empty life.> Spending time on something interesting to you is a waste.> The world would be better if more people had access to electricity, but also if nobody used it.What insufferable faggotry. Never post this again.
>>100098507usb c hub>>100083456>idk. define thin. under 4lb is light. 2lb is really light. make it detach, and split the weight, but it isn't popular for one reason... the motherboard is detached basically, most of the hw is on the keyboard half, it needs to be behind the screen, AKA tablet. ASUS makes the only Z laptop I know of that is like that but it's Intel.
>>100090070>Retard tier: "less thin a coin"That's probably a typo.
i just don't want a laptop that would bend in my bag
>>100104701>laptop that would bend in my bagThat would be my old Lenovo 585. Those little plastic fins on the side broke off, leaving sharp edges that would pick at the nylon of my backpack, which would catch more plastic edges and eventually snap the left side of the case. The keyboard and monitor bezels developed cracks. Soon if I used it on anything but a perfectly flat, solid surface, something inside would short out.
*dabs*
>>100107178>Those little plastic fins on the side broke offLmao, the exactly same happens on mine. You don't even have to carry it around, it's the heat that makes the plastic weak and brittle.
>>100107394How much it weigh?
>>100103652>That's probably a typo.No, it's literally an ESL CCP bot
>>100083456That's until some weaboo's fat stinky wet swamp ass bends it at an angle will cannon balling down into the recesses of some poor chaps sofa at a frat house owned by some MLG bros running a Super Smash Bros Ultimate tournament. That guy would get his ass beat and have 4 dudes pick his 350 lb ass up and chuck him into the lawn like a flounder out of water flipping around like a flapjack. Rule of thumb, don't let people touch your shit unless it's an old used controller or something that is easy to replace or negligible in value. I wouldn't let most people drive my car knowing how piss poor people are with avoiding hairline scratches. Retards

>>100084101That's what the MacBook is. They use pretty much the same processor in the ipad. It's a tablet with the keyboard made for that tablet with the keyboard market. It's not meant to be a workstation laptop. The medical student guy is actually right he knows that he needs good battery life and a weak CPU is perfectly acceptable to him.
>>100113707>grownass person chugs protein like an athlete daily, yet has less strength than a 12-year-old little girlLook, I was out of shape so bad at one point, I was that weak myself, but this is completely ridiculous. And it doesn't take much effort to avoid sinking to that extreme at all, I make sure not to.
>>100123044macbook is now a ARM laptop...that ditched Windows support lol. tablets with detachable keyboards basically don't exist for windows because the x86 CPU uses more watts than ARM, and all that hardware is on the keyboard side in a laptop, not behind the screen. If you put all that weight behind the screen, the system needs a support leg to stay upright and is basically ready to tip over. The Asus Z is the only tablet I know of that works the same, and I wanted it but couldn't get over the feature and price tag with a dedicated card, questionable temps, etc, but I'd get one before a macbook.Forgo the detachable keyboard and make it 2 in 1. the macbook isn't 2 in 1 because Apple needs to sell tablets. The only x86 2in1s are WindowsI like my 2in1 because I don't lose performance, I don't lose mobility, but if you use it like a high performance system it will deplete like one, you don't need neutered components because you need battery life, you need to neuter your settings, processor management.
>>100119890lol he actually drank the drink
>>100123595There are windows tablets like that, such as the entire surface line. My dad has a Windows tablet with detachable keyboard which he thinks is fast. For what he does, it is. Same general type of customer.
