Apple did a really good job with their MacBook Pro GPUs. In the Blender rendering benchmarks, the 40-core M5 Max GPU beats the laptop RTX 5090 and comes within mere inches of beating the DESKTOP 4080 Super.https://opendata.blender.org/benchmarks/query/?blender_version=5.1.1&group_by=device_name
Walled garden ecosystem. Good hardware means nothing when you're stuck with bad software.
>>109169857It's a laptop and it's not even cheap.
>>109169890Feel like they are hitting physical thermal limits on the 3nm node. (they been on it since m3 I think?)m7 should be tsmc's 2nm.
>>109169892Actually if silicon macs used arm linux or arm windows, they would run 100% worse.
>>109169857MacOS sucks, I'd rather have asscancer
>>109169857it's a laptop
I like macOS. It lets me escape Windows and still keep my pro apps.
>>109169929All laptops are now plastic piece of shit for $400-$1000gayman plastic piece of shit that looks awful $1000-2000$decent laptops with metal case $2000-3000
>>109169979Buy second hand. What do you need an expensive laptop for?
>>109169857They're deprecating Rosetta. Frankly I think there should be more Rosetta, if you could run both x86 and amd64 applications through the same translation layer, forever, I wouldn't need another computer.
>>109170004I saw how audio engineer actually hate this, because a lot of old hardware with interesting sound they use won't have drivers since it's all written for intel.
>>109169857price
>>109169857Laptop.Plastic chassisWill bend when picking up with one handGarbage
>>109169857sure, it doesn't have a numpad on the right side of keyboard.
>>109169857>missing dedicated navigation buttons>no clit>huge tackpad
>>109169857Annoying OS
>>109169934So the hardware isn't even what's good about them? lol
I actually got an m4 and returned it and do regret it. A similarly priced windows laptop i got is worst and has this feel that is less premium and its still one of the most premium laptop in this 1.5k price range. MacOS is stress free too and just beautifully lobotomite. i switched cuz vidya but i dont even play them anymore
>>109169857I've never used a Macbook but I don't feel like buying one
>>109171009Kinda, they are still good, but I am saying the snapdragon ARM isn't that bad either... it's just windows arm and linux arm are both shit.
>>109169857No programs. No games. No other OS. No I/O ports. Shit GPU. A glorified ASIC for a CPU. Shit keyboard. Shit display. Turns you Gay.
>>109171035They're like lenovo ideapads, but casing is not cheap plastic. Also stupid keyboard layout. Besides that: >>109171301
>>109170330>t. tard
>>109170330Honestly I hate how 16"+ laptops all have numpads. I want a large screen and my keyboard to be centered because otherwise you're always aligned awkwardly.
>>109171713It makes zero difference to me because I avoid trackpad like a plague. I always carry a bluetooth mouse
>>109169857the notch is a flawand it will be admitted so in a few monthsyou needn't defend it, apple is mere months away from making you toe the new line on dynamism
>>109171208i have one and it is not magic eitherit uses a lot of power
>>109169857I don't actually like macos
>>109169857Here's your macbook pro after a few months of use.
>>109171854No shit, apple can't break laws of physics. All those PRO/MAX variants drain 100w easily under heavy loads.>>109171848True, but top menu bar kinda hides it well.>>109171875Second real problem, you can prevent it.
>>109169857the euro plug and keyboard layout
>>109169857Unfixable.
>>109169857Looks a bit too much like an HP for me to not want to smash it to pieces with an axe.
>>109169882>inb4 poor, sure I'm poor, what's your next response?hahahaha
>>109171875>>109171887keycaps are easy to replace. switches a little more of a challenge. what's really going to short your circuits is when the keyboard electrically fails. spontaneously. without any liquid damage. then you're out a few hundo for an entire top case because that sucker is riveted in place. it's impossible to remove without bending the top case. thanks, applebama.
>>109169857it costs 1 gorillion dollars
>>109169882>locked down eco system designed to syphon even more money out of the idiots that fell into buying it in the first placeThis. My colleague bought a macbook and got stuck in the syphon - got the iphone, airpods, the little thingy that lets you track your stuff (which is like 100 bucks or something), and finally, last month we received the latest studio display at the office. It is, at best, slightly better looking than my $200 dell monitor, and has half the refresh rate. It is insane how quickly people would dump a fortune to remove perceived 'inconveniences' which are artificially created to do just that. The enforced incompatibility with any other hardware or the limitation of features pushes normies to spend their money on shit they wouldn't need if they hadn't bought the iphone or macbook in the first place.
>>109174381i've used macbooks for more than a decade and this has never happened to me.what kind of secretions are you guys emanating from your fingers to make keyboards look or fail like that? stop eating at the PC
>>109174537
>>109169857Those tiny arrow keys. I fucking hate them. I hate how other laptop manufacturers copied this design.
>>109174381another fatal flaw is keys actually touching screen so you get tiny speck of sand or something on keys and they start sanding your screen down.that's why you'll see many macbook users having some kind of cumrug in their laptop when it's closed.
>>109175400This happens on my Thinkpad just as much.
>>109169857super mega hunchback from laptop use
>>109169857macos is garbage
>>109169857Fn key in the Control key position.
>>109169857can't be anally inserted
>>109175407never seen that happening on anything but macbook, not saying it's not happening just that I haven't seen it personally.also hate how soft the the macbook shell/chassis is in general, even small drop will deform corners and if you squish it in backpack or something it gets permanent pressure marks on screen.it's just bad design overall but people still like them for some reason.
>>109175445Isn't that largely irrelevant because Macfags use alt key to do copy paste?
>>109175478>alt key to do copy pasteThat's an even bigger flaw baka
>>109169857e-waste when Apple drops support (no Linux or any custom OS, inb4 Asahi - still weak support)
>>109169857non repairable ewaste
>>109169857>Expensive for what is inside>Barely any gayming support>Dropping rosetta 2 next year>OS with the worst UX I've ever seen>Blocks all apps without a paid developer sub certificate>Buggy mess for the last version>Weird keyboard layout where symbols aren't on the same position as the regular iso distribution counterpartJust to name some.
>>109175445unlike shitdows macos let you swap fn, cmd, ctrl, opt and caps
>>109175707You are correct, but that would imply that only Windows exists.
>>109169857i could write a long list but you only asked for onelook at this shit: >>109171887what a disgusting keyboard, the lettering does not belong in the center, it belongs offset to the top left, people already found that out 50 years ago but itoddlers will eat any poop as long as it has the logo. that piece of shit will die in 6 month and you cannot recover your data. have fun
>>109169857intel is pretty fucking good these days, linux is pretty fucking good these days also I just don't like that shit it's too gay for my tastes
>>109171875Lol>my 700 bucks HP EliteBook (16 gigs for that price btw) keycaps look like new after 4 yearsLMAOOOOOOOOOOONow wait till you see a macbook air after a short video render, what the fuck? This literally does not happen with my HP, something something CPU fans are great to have.Macshitters get fleeced so hard, the software is buggy and gay, the build quality is terrible, I almost feel bad for them but after I see them being insufferable faggots on the internet I just kinda don't, let them get fucked sideways by niggers.
>>109175478>alt keyNo, it's the "command" key whatever the fuck that is. Like w*ndows key on PC. Imagine that shit. It's all backward, I would have to get used to all these gay little differences just to get a fucking security theater for app installation and have to use the terminal to adjust basic settings, if using the terminal to adjust everything is what I wanted LINUX IS FUCKING FREE.
>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8A3MOmfMyX4>13 years ago, some distinguished Serbian gentlemen got fed up with their fucking Macintosh fucking up their concerts and wrote a disstrack on Macshit, it even shits on Macshit shills specifically for their endless posturing about "MUH WORK ITS THE BEST COMPUTER FOR WORKKKK!!!!!" which has been annoying people since the dawn of time, it seems.Too bad about the language barrier huh. Prompt an LLM, they're great for translating this sorta shit.
>>109175707>unlike shitdows macos let you swap fn, cmd, ctrl, opt and capsWindows does let you swap all those.Except Fn, depending on the laptop. That's up to the laptop manufacturer.
>>109176307>just manually edit your registry brono it doesn't
>>109174483there was a time in the 00s for mac that the screens were up to date because it had radeon 1550 or gtx 760, they were always scams. apple was always a psyop and should have died like symbolics. name one good program that runs on mac. I can, it's logic and every other daw will do the exact same thing.
>>109169882>inb4 poor, sure I'm poor, what's your next response?You are not TA of this shilling thread. Apple nowadays sells cheap computers for poor people.Here is how it works:if you're dumb and poor -> fagbook neoif you're rich and dumb -> anything with "pro max"if you're not dumb -> a used macmini for real life shit + PC for scrolling 4chins and gayming and what not
>>109176415There's a GUI:https://sharpkeys.net/
>>109176489>third party appyou lost
I never really liked the MBP. If you just want a internet browser machine get an air or neo, if you need to do real work get a desktop. Hell if you really want to do work on the way get a mac mini + macbook air and ssh into it and it's still cheaper and won't run out of battery in 30 minutes while catching fire.
>>109169857Metal body that has a weird texture only when its charging for some reason.
>>109169864Assuming you mean the Fn and Ctrl flip, its the same layout as the thinkpad. You DO use a thinkpad right????
>>109169857Sharp edges and corners.I'll get downvoted for this, but I prefer the feeling of plastic laptops.>>109176869It's retarded on the Thinkpad too. But it can be changed in BIOS so it doesn't matter.
>>109176884They should make the extra keys with tiny e-ink displays so you can change their label and function.
>>109176884>It's retarded on the Thinkpad tooNo, its superior, and matches a lot of peoples muscles memory. Its been a thing since the 90s lmao. Probably before you were born.
>>109169857Stuck with macOS, and runs anything else badly.

>>109176580>buying any device with 8 GB ram in 2026
>>109169857It doesn't fit into plugs. You could only use it about 8-12 hours and then you would have to throw it away.
>>109169857it's a fucking craptop.
>>109169857no windowsno right clickno linuxis appleno x86should i continue?
>>109169857can't run H-games and VNs natively
>>109171875That's on you to wash your hands regularlyIn fact, pretty much everytime you touch any food or anything dirty, you should wash your hands as soon as possible.
>>109176536You need a third party app to do anything on macOS too, (including make non-5K displays look good) except unlike in Windows you have to pay for them.
>>109175707> the shitty OS let's you rebind the wrongly placed buttonGreat stuff, iFag
>>109177124It's funny how people will be like "NOOO CONTROL NEEDS TO BE ON THE FAR LEFT" and then make posts about Emacs pinky or how hard it is to use Control while gaming. Some people can't be helped. Fuck them for long enough and they'll start thinking their asshole is empty when they're not getting fucked.
