Will you buy it?
>>108346895>Bans for shitter shit shots (views = money for twitter)>how about we ban reddit instagram tiktok screenshots too?>no not like that!
>8gb in 2026lmao no
>>108346895No, now fuck off;
>>108346943What he said, but less politely.
>>108346895No. I use a stinkpad for my 14" and a 17" msi with a gpu for mobile workstation. I wouldn't even buy this for a child as I would just get more stinkpads and force them to learn linux. That said I would recommend this for my mother and mother in law and aunt except the screen is too small for it to be usable for old people, they need 15" minimum. I guess maybe one of my sisters it would be good for. My wife likes being able to play the sims and has a 3050 in her legion laptop so she wouldn't want one. So maybe one of my 7 sisters would like this.
>>108346941trackpad status?
i would buy it when apple copy chinese and make something innovative
>>108346895maybe. i've never bought a laptop in my life so i'm considering it.
>>108346895They're fucking up by muting the colors.I don't give a shit about the hardware inside because I'm sure it's mediocre, but stylistically this looks like a Wayfair rebrand. Not in the least bold.
>>108346941the AMD chip is worse in every way, massively at that, what an odd post to make
>>108346909>B) A dedicated AI board.get the fuck out of here clanker
Viral Apple marketing fuck off there's like 6 threads about this fucking thing up we aren't buying it I have a 20 year old IBM Thinkpad that does the same thing but with less battery life now fuck off, we are all turbo-autistic nerds who either can't afford Apple or think it's gay. We are nerds we're not cool and we don't have social skills we aren't buying your glorified iPhone now fuck off
macOS makes computing feel unfulfilling.
>>108346895Why would I get a phone chip? I already own a phone.
I've never used an 8GB Macbook Air but I know multiple people who have and they all said it wasn't enough. Even 12GB would have given it a better chance.
>>108347225as a macuser you compensate and solve the issue by getting filled by dick
Not enough RAM for my day to day, let alone if I decide to do anything more than shitpost
Don't those shits have soldered SSDs in them?Lol, imagine the absolute swapping RAPE it will have to endure in its lifetime at 8GB and modern browsing. Those things will flood the repair shops in 2 years tops.
>>108346941>AsusThis will fall apart if you breath on it too much.Same for all those dirt cheap Lenovo ewaste machines.
>>108347235Now show temperatures.
>>108346895It's such a weird product in Apple's lineup I don't know what to make of it. I could look past 8 GB of RAM at 11 or 12" but at 13 I might as well roll the dice on a used M1 or M2 with 16 GB.>>108346941Is this supposed to be an anti-shitpost?>>108346997Absolutely disgusting.>>108347167kys>>108347225An OS meant for doing stuff instead of tweaking, imagine that.>>108347257Good. I'll pick up a bunch dirt cheap and solder new chips.
it's apple ram so it's 2x as effective!
>>108347236>>108347249>>108347360>>108346941They better use the 8gb A19 instead of the 12gb A19 pro when they update this thing, so that /g/ will seethe for another year
>>108346895no you can buy a 16gb lunar lake laptop with BETTER battery life for $400-450, better graphics, better MTit does fall behind in 1t but it also has compatibility with x86 software so win/lose
>>108346941Don't you have a desktop PC at home?
>>108347688Sorry ma'am but all my computers need to be able to run open mw with a 110gb overhaul mod.
>>108347555Nah they'll probably do the pro, could have already used the a18
>>108347555That would get too close to the air. It will have to be nerfed in some way
>>108346941>cpu marknow divide by tdp, faggot
>>108346895>>108346926>$499>picture says $599GOOD MORNING SIR!>>108347555>rajeesh shitinamanshand really believes people will "seethe" over garbage that /g/ shits on every single daydoes this actually work? just say someone is seething while you spam the site every day with apple trash? we can easily search the archives and find thousands of pages of nobody having any fucks or respect to give for this astroturfed trash that can't even command more than 8% of the global computer market. even the photos and posts are identical.
>>108347773>but.. tdpnobody except for people that shit in the street and people using a computer just for facebook give any fucking shits about tdp. ipedophile devices could have a 300 year battery life but nobody will give a fuck because it's:>appleand>utilizes a SoC designed for a mobile phonecringe, rajeesh.
>>108346895I doubt it, I rather have something smaller I can run a Linux flavor onIf this (pic related) can take a Linux install then this
FUCK OFF FUCKING APPLE ADS IN MY GEEEEE
>>108347775considering how you bothered to reply, i would say the bait is working
would get one after i saw that you can remove apple intelligenceone reason that i havent updated my macOSbut my current computer (m1 air, 16/2tb) is perfect for my needs
>>108346895no. Plenty of better laptops at the same price out there.
If I was in college I'd buy it.I don't have much use for a device like this in my life right now. It's been a long time since I needed a personal laptop. But yeah in college I'd have killed for a laptop this premium at $500 I always had to blow at least $1000 to get anything that would be worth buying.
>>108346895I think it may be time to get a mac to play with OSX, play eith picoGK and use the Kagi Orion browser. But I much rather get a used giant iMac with 5k screen. They go for less than €300. Seriously, go check it out. You can just buy them now from Mac users who don't want them to cost $0 when the security updates stop. But I wanted one to run Linux on so... forget about the Kagi Orion browser then. Didn't think about that.
If it had sufficient linux support like M1/M2 macbooks then I'd buy it yes.
>>108346895>can't run gentoo>no active cooling>8gb>6 threadsI don't think so, Tim Apple. Also don't need a new laptop anyway.
>>108346895No. I bought one apple product in my life, a macbook pro in 2013, and I will never buy their shit again.
>>108346895NOThey need to fix the following:1. 12GB of RAM minimum2. It needs at least 10 hour realistic batter life, i.e. they need to add a larger battery3. It would have to be on sale without a student discount for <$500I don't know if I could go back to a mechanical trackpad anyway.
>>108346895Macbook neovagina
>>108346895nah, already have a better one. If you're in the market for a macbook there's no reason to buy this over a used >=M1 air on marketplace. This device is for bulk educational purchase programs.
>>108349401m1 mba is inferior to the neo. N5 vs N3E process node
>>108346895I already have a laptop.
>>108347343You're not doing anything with Apple's Toy OS
WHY THE FUCK WOULD YOU GET THIS WHEN YOU COULD GET A 5 YEAR OLD M1 PRO THAT HAS 1.5X THE MULTICORE PERFORMANCE FOR THE SAME PRICE
>>108346941>1920x1200 displaydisgusting funny how did you didn't include that lmao
>>108347343>solder new chipsI'd wager they're all parts paired
>>108346895Only after someone figures out how to replace ios.>>108346941The vivobooks have the worst screen viewing angle I've ever seen.
>>108349740Viewing angles are a meme on a laptop, just adjust the screen angle, retard.1920x1200 is a lot more usable than 1280x720 doubled.
>>108349740yeah just adjust the screen the one angle that doesn't shift all the color and look like absolute total shit on your plastic laptop bro
>>108346941>8W>28WEnough said
>>108346895>can't upgrade shitwhy would I waste money on this non-sense? are you stupid?
>>108349867Meaningless numbers. In the real world, Windows laptops usually get better battery life than macshit poos
>>108349875at $500 lol nope
>>108346895>entry level m4 macbook airs and mac minis were as low as $750 and $399 at the end of last yearThat was your signal to scoop one up.
>>108346941>x86 cpus in mobile devices
>>108349889Yes they do. Lunar Lake and Panther Lake aren't fast but they are very efficient. $450 226V laptops gets 17.2 hours in WiFi web browsing test on NoteBookCheck which is more than M4 MBA 15 with 16.5 hours. Apple says that MBA has 2x the battery life of the MBN.
>>108349922Show me the review
>>108347324Asus uses LE MILITARY GRADE components you ignorant buffoonLet me guess, you're one of those amerifats that believe Chevrolet and Ford have a good reputation worldwide
>>108349948released in 2024 with an oled display btwhttps://www.notebookcheck.net/Asus-Vivobook-S-14-OLED-Review-Affordable-quieter-and-long-lasting-thanks-to-Lunar-Lake.939243.0.htmlI paid $450 for it and it does have very good battery life and ubuntu (dont bully) worked out of the box
>>108349978so you've been spamming neo threads because you bought a windows laptop in 2024 and want reassurance it was a good purchase? :| lol
>>108349998No I am letting people know that 226V laptops are probably better for them because it will have more memory to avoid swapping and linux works without waiting for patches
>>108350006the swap thing isn't an actual problem. the m1 mba 8gb has been out for almost 6 years and there isn't a single case of an SSD dying in one
>>108350044im sure you notice swappiness thoughbeit. or what do you do with your computer?all lunar lake laptops have at least 16gb of memorythey have better graphics with open source mainlined drivers that actually work including all video encoding/decoding enginesthey all use be200/201 which have open source mainlined wifi/bt drivers that actually workthey are regularly available for less than $500 without student discountsif a MBN is "good enough" then Lunar Lake are easily "better enough" for any gnu tardMBN only looks good if you plan to work on asahi for a few years or really, really need speedometer 3.1 scores to be high
No, because MacOS and Windows have become dystopian hellholes, and Apple doesn't write Linux drivers.
>>108350069fanless > fanand 8gb mac = 16gb windowsalso, nobody wants to deal with looking at the billion options for windows laptops, and the different specs between all of them. it's an absurd waste of time.
>>108350096>and 8gb mac = 16gb windowsthat's irrelevant8gb mac = 6gb linuxit's actually quite bloated as Tahoe as I'm sure you would've noticed if you used it
>>108350069Nobody cares about linux. A new macbook lasts for literally a decade and just works. Linux is mostly a waste of time and Windows is literally jerry rigged malware.
>>108350110I'm not arguing MBN isn't a good normalfaggot machine. It's exactly that. But I entered this thread because some are deceiving about its battery life. Even in ubuntu I get 12 hours with a damn OLED display which eclipses what I've seen for MBN testing. And apparently it's more in Windows
>>108350147what's wrong with the neo battery life? it seems fine. it's a pretty small battery iirc
>>108350198it's like 4 hours worse than an 13" M4 MBAapple really cheaped out
>>108350227i don't think neo buyers are even using the battery that much. it's mostly a basic all-in-one computer solution to use at home or at school. 95% of users probably won't do anything more intensive than watching a 4k/60hz youtube video. It's literally an iPhone 16 Pro chip, so if you weren't going to do it on an iPhone 16 Pro, you probably aren't doing it on the Neo.
with apple, you win!
>>108349529even the base M1A will slap it on battery life, keyboard, trackpad, sound, and even ports, and it'll cost half as much. The only reason to get the neo is if you really want the colored body. For $600 I'd be looking for an old M1/M2 base pro. You might even be lucky enough to get an M3 for that.
>>108346895I've already got an M4 Max with 64 GB, so absolutely not.
>>108350329You're gonna buy one Maybe not for youBut You are going to buy one You are even thinking about who to buy it forYou are going to buy one
>>108350352It looks like e-waste, if I was actually going to buy anything for anyone it would be an Air with at least 16 GB of RAM.
>8gb is e-waste>*glances at all of the m1 mba 8gb models that everyone is still using 6 years later*lol
>>108346895I already have laptop(s)I do not need the zog terminal to access the approved websites and I do not need to submit for mandatory thought inspection
>>108346895No, stop shilling it for fuck sake.It's only a good product for grandma or your mother.
>>108350639that's right it's a good product
>>108346941>cpu mark is almost identical>amd chip TDP is 20 watts greaterIf you're trying to make apple look bad you're totally failing here. And I'm an apple hater and 20 years fulltime linux user who's saying this
>>108350763The AMD laptop actually has a fan. The Shitbook Neo would melt if you ran any workload for more than 5 minutes.
>>108350774Fan is just a point of failure.

>>108346895my mom wants a laptop for email/web shit, i might get her one of these
>>108346895No point for me right now, my M2 MBA 8gb is still rocking just fine. I'm expecting an actual upgrade by the time we're eyeballing M7.
>>108347324So does Macbook.The unibody design puts unnecessary pressure on the panel and WILL inevitably crack it.
Can I install arch linux or an arch linux derivative on a macbook? That's the one thing holding me back from getting an apple laptop.
