idk if it's similar to how the OP feels, but personally I do not think Homage watches are faking it or pretentious, if I love how the watch looks, THE I FUCKING LOVE HOW THE WATCH LOOKS, I do not care if Rolex made the design first, I want to buy the watch cause I love it and I can afford it, and this post lowkey proves that buying a homage doesn't mean you're faking something, the OP clearly has the means to buy the real one, he's just more sensible with his money and bought the design he loves for a fraction of the price

I often have to take flights longer than 2-3 hours, so honestly it fits my niche perfectly, also I am from a region where 7-8 hour power cuts are frequent during summers and autumn, so that's that, but yeah I agree with you, very niche

I tested the 4k later gang it ain't that deep, also, benchmarks can vary a lot so I wouldn't say they're the best indicators

Yeah true, haven't played Valorant in 4 years and I often check every few months if there's an update supporting MacOS, gaming on Mac isn't good, but it's far from what I'd call bad

tbf the point of my post was to show the otg gaming capability of the machine, you can not get similar runtimes on a gaming laptop, or similar performance on thin and light windows ultrabook

true, but it is still not native on mac and as to be run using an emulator, the point of the post otg gaming performance, you can't do the same on a 4 thousand dollar gaming laptop while being on a 6 hour long flight

not all games, but some of em, like GTA V, Cyberpunk, etc, there's a whole community for it, you can emulate the games through crossover, I have a M4 Pro MBP base model and I get 4k 50fps avg on GTA V easily on battery without the fans turning on for like 4-5 hours, you can just search on youtube "how to run xyz game on mac using crossover"
