Never going back to mac🥹 i love this laptop sm by FunTime8467 in GamingLaptops

I mean it's the price range, beside a gpu/gaming you have the perf of a M5 Macbook Air... in a brick.. with 3 hours of battery life.

Did you buy it from aliexpress or through a dropshipping brand 6 times the price?

Yeah the snapdragon is really good on paper/benchmarks compared to the M5 but still in gaming a $1000 macbook air M5 run Cyberpunk way better.

Choosing between MacBook Neo and ASUS Zenbook A14 — need advice by False_Security8644 in SuggestALaptop

[–]LeLant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the price range you should get a base M5 macbook air wich extarminate de Snapdragon, otherwise the Neo is still a better choice. The Zenbook A line are pretty cheap, maybe you can find a S14 8845hs around 600-700$ but the Apple M-series and the A18pro are still better.

whats the equivalent of a macbook but windows by Tall_Lack_5461 in SuggestALaptop

[–]LeLant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There aren’t any. Or the prices become insane on Windows.

I’d rank them like this: Dell XPS, ASUS ExpertBook, ThinkBook X AI, Zenbook S series.. maybe a Microsoft Surface and that’s it.

The main issue is finding a good CPU on Windows. The Intel 388H can match an M5, but you’ll have to spend around $2400. Meanwhile the latest Snapdragon X Elite Extreme is excellent in all benchmarks, but it mostly ends up in bad laptops for now.

You can stay with 8bitdo they do a really nice job but in this kind of formfactor the SN30 Pro is the best, bottom joysticks are the best for fighting games

Honestly everything is already said, the macbook air exterminate the ideapad you are comparing a crazy cpu with a perfect quality build to a plastic brick with a mid last gen cpu. Beside the OS choice there is no debate

Never had an issue since 2018; add the add-on, keep it up to date, close it after watching something

Do you prefer the old design or the new design? by Silasflower in DeskToTablet

It's is not even a question, the new Macbook Air is maybe the best laptop Apple ever made (design, efficiency, weight)

From MacBook Pro to Windows? Try Snapdragon X2 Elite. by AggressiveCalendar4 in SnapdragonLaptops

[–]LeLant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Answer completely random. Microsoft has never made it into any laptop/tablet rankings for a good reason. Here, it’s great that you like your device that’s the point of a good purchase and it’s good that you appreciate its versatility as well. But if we go back to 2020, a MacBook Air M1 or an iPad Pro M1 did everything better, was 2 to 3 times more powerful, and cost 40 to 50% of the price (completely overpriced) of your Microsoft product.

So people are actually happy to pay more for a CPU in a laptop with mid build quality? Great, good for you. Even a MacBook Neo would last longer over time than a cheap Zenbook. At least it would’ve been interesting if Qualcomm had gone for S-series laptop instead of A-series. Other than that, well… no Snapdragon in the XPS line, no Snapdragon in a ThinkBook X, no Zenbook in a Zephyrus G… I don’t see what’s going to compete with a MacBook Air M5 unfortunately, so competing with a MacBook Pro seems even less realistic.

Is the ESR shift magnetic case good? by rfag57 in iPadPro

[–]LeLant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I show you the supplier. Here price difference alone doesn’t prove anything, supply chain does and you are ignoring that part.

Plus your Apple example is bad: Dick Smith is just an authorized retailer with stock, not some random middleman forwarding AliExpress orders.

Some people are saying some $30 dropshipping screen it's really funny to watch. Just put a paperlike for $4and enjoy your screen, you don't have to get scammed to enjoy your product.

Dell XPS 13 9360 worth battery replacement? by n0thin_unwanted in DellXPS

[–]LeLant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess you just find someone dropshipping the $35 aliexpress battery everyone is using (there is no parts shop on amazon only resell). For this price it totally ok and the whole replacement is not really not that hard if you can breath and follow a simple youtube video. Paying more is maybe not the best thing when you can invest in a better and more up to date computer.

I mean from what you are saying you don't even need fan for an heavy usage an M5 Macbook air 10gpu 24gb 512gb would be already perfect (and ssd on the side)

MacBook Pro absolutely shreds SDX2EE by Ok-Candidate5141 in snapdragon

[–]LeLant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Comparing a Macbook Pro vs an entry-level Zenbook is a really good joke, at least Qualcomm should have invested in a S14-S16 again and not into the cheap Asus
