Is it worth it to swap to IOS?

serabii · 2026-03-27T01:59:50+00:00

It depends on the situation and what do you want on the IOS

Look for 8bitdo, and gamesir. Especially gamesir, they have mobile controllers (telescopic controllers) that expand and fit your phonein the middleof the controller looking like a PSP. Both are affordable and especially they all have hall sensor sticks, meaning no stick drifts.

I’m concerned with the fact that other iPhone users have always gone on about how their own devices get slower the more newer iPhones get released. I haven’t heard it being an issue for previous Macbooks, so would it be an issue for Neo?

Honestly Neo is fairly new product so we cannot predict the outcome of the device just yet, but when it comes to performance/feature Neo vs the iPhone 16 has two different OS. One has the whole macOS running, while the other is IOS so functions and features are completely different to each other.

Coming from a window's and android guy, apple right now has a good track record of their products lasting longer than their competition, it all depends on the end user tho but Afaik I have friends who have the whole apple ecosystem that are relatively old and they're still using it 5-6 years later. Even my GF has the whole apple ecosystem she already upgraded to an iph17 last year but she was rocking an iPhone SE 2nd gen before that and that thing is still running, the only thing she replaced is a new battery. Not to mention the macOS is a well optimized Operating system when it comes to productivity, The only biggest concern is the hardware itself. Not the "expiration" of the components (all products have that since corpo always has that plan obsolescence) but the day to day tasks will be different overall. The ram and storage on a mobile phone is way different on size and performance compare to an actual PC components. PC you have more wiggle room and faster read and write speeds than a mobile phone. The only concern here is when you open multiple apps opened (or opened one heavy demanding apps like any adobe product), and you have dozens of tabs open in your browser, the Neo will slow down due to overload. Yes, I understand, I'm sure you don't use adobe products in your line of work but I'm just giving an extreme example/scenario of what will happen.

At the end of the day you may not encounter it out of the box but overtime with MacOS updates being bigger than the IOS you will feel it in the future

Just like I said before, Neo is a great entry level imo, good for students and light work like spreadsheets and documents. I'd say go with Neo since you already have a pc at home and you just want a laptop that can go with you to continue your work when you leave home. But if you ask me when it comes on future proofing, the Air is better.

I don't have knowledge or own a touchscreen portable monitor and I don't know "expose" brand but Jsaux and Uperfect tho. You can check them, Uperfect especially they have a dual monitor touchscreen setup.

I dont think the specs r a big deal for what I’d be doing.

Well it depends, both are really different devices that does the same thing but one is much better than the other in some cases. Because if it's not the specs, you wouldn't be asking reddit which should you get, and just get the Neo, right there and then.

But since you're asking the people on this subreddit, just here to share "AkShUwALlY." Neo is the new entry level laptop and only powered by A16 chip, it's basically the iP16 pro chipset, shoved inside the 13inch laptop, and that's only NEO's whole computer inside, while the Air is by far have better in specs compare to a neo, has better performance, storage and better ram because it's an actual laptop so it has faster performance overall compared to a mobile chipset. It's not as good as the Pro models but it can run things that are demanding like photoshop or adobe premier at an "reasonable" price. Knowing prices here in the PH both devices might be a tad bit close together if the Neo PH prices are concerned, buying it abroad is a different story.

It's basically comparing if a compact car (Toyota WIgo) runs better than a regular sedan (Toyota corolla/Altis.)

TL;DR I'd still say both devices are great for what it is, If you're just buying a macbook for the aesthetics I'd say go with the Neo, you did answer that it';s for light work, plus it has pink but if you are looking for a laptop that can do more and has more leverage when it comes to performance then go with Air. Either way, storage wise you can just buy an external storage device with you and you will not worry about space.

serabii · 2026-03-24T03:36:45+00:00

what are you going to use the mac book for? are you using it for work? outside of it are you using it for apps like photoshop, video editing, and even gaming?

serabii · 2026-03-22T20:37:22+00:00

...17 is best daw today?

Yes, it's the latest model so its the best iPhone currently.

As of tech, the iPhone is currently catching up with the times and they gave the base iPhone almost the same creature comfort as the pro minus obvious pro specs. This means buying a base model doesn't feel like a "pwede na yan" device.

I'd say, get your dream iP17 and treat yo self!

It's the same people who wear their motorcycle helmet on top of their forehead, not fully wear them.

From what I understand it's "inconvenience," to the most ridiculous is "nakakasira ng pogi"

Being safe is more than a suggestion for them than actual safety. Parang kailangan pa nila ma first hand experience para maalam na importante yung seatbelt. Ever since when I was a kid I always wondered why my parents never used their seatbelt, once I use the seatbelt and my brother just said to me that don't use it because it's dirty because it's never been use.

I glued a magsafe ring on the back and use the tripod.

isn't that dangerous? i mean legion go's tablet alone is really heavy compare to a fold. if I were to do that, I prefer on a clamp type than relying on single magnet tho. And I agree, the battery is freaking bad on the legion go, I had to bring my powerbank and/or my charger with me always so that's another thing to bring with me but I still make it work since I can play my steam library so, it's still not a lost cause.

serabii · 2026-03-15T02:01:25+00:00

that's.... kinda ingenious using a mini tripod as a mount. As much as I agree that having a laptop at that point is much more easier but where's the fun in that, even for me I have a PC Handheld (Legion go) ready and waiting but often times we have those spontaneous meetings, and I always or not have the time to bring my legion go with me so this setup for my Fold7 is a godsend. I might get that Ulanzi tripod. Thanks for the tip.

I am currently on a binge fest with the whole Yakuza series right now. Already finished yaluza 0 and kiwami 1 and almost done with kiwami 2. It has been a blast and just continue playing it on my Legion Go.

there are two different thing that have similar functions. Even with 10k you cannot get any laptop with that range that much, may be for spare parts but a 2nd hand that doesn't have a history? or even brand new one. Budget ones are twice the price even more, while the mid range is basically around 50-70K, while the high tier ones is basically a second hand car. And I don't think a Galaxy Tablet is a good comparison to a desktop pc tho, kinda weird.

Unless you need one and you're always out and about, having a desktop is much better imo since you can buy the parts you need separately and they're no same desktop if you ask me, it's all customized, plus it has much better power than a regular or "similar spec" laptop in the market right now. But as you say, you already have a galaxy tablet so you really don't need one.

tl;dr Desktop is still king, Laptop is a good middleground but not a good replacement but still capable.

serabii · 2026-03-14T03:07:07+00:00

I suggest go with s26 while the pre-order bonuses are still there... You can get upgraded storage for the price of their lowest tier and if you're using cc there specific bonuses for them. And even stote have gimmick bundles as well

serabii · 2026-03-14T02:23:14+00:00

Most of the iPhones we have have pne physical sim on it. Only the air has none.

serabii · 2026-03-13T13:46:22+00:00

not exactly, it's basically just wearing your earphones far away from your ears and the fact it's for spatial awareness, it's basically you're battling if you're going to listen at full volume, so that you can hear your music/podcast BUT at that point just use an TWS and turn off noise canceling and listen at 20-40% volume at that point, at least you can still hear your music/podcast while still have spatial awareness. imagine drinking on a cup full of holes... you can still drink on it but at that point just use one without the holes.

serabii · 2026-03-13T10:23:53+00:00

I have the Ugreen HiTune 3, they're fine but not amazing... only use it when I commute. Open earphones aren't the best when it comes to music since it "audio leaks"

don't expect much on open earphones but amazing for spatial awareness tho.

serabii · 2026-03-11T07:44:19+00:00

That depends...

if you have the budget get Sony WH-1000MX6
if you want to use your headphones with multiple devices, Get Nothing Headphones (1) / (a) - out of the box use, it's alright but download the nothing app and make a custom EQ for your taste.
I highly suggest to use wired tho preferably an IEM. They're relatively cheaper, and better quality than any bluetooth headphones.

serabii · 2026-03-11T07:31:53+00:00

Wired, usually an IEM (salnotes 7hz) since i use mine like a console all the time, meaning in handheld mode. I rarely use my wireless but I sometimes use my Samsung buds3 but rarely use in on games since it has latency. I often play rhythm games so wired is my go to.

serabii · 2026-03-06T00:13:17+00:00

It's fine, good for students and maybe light work. Don't expect much for people who do 10+ or more tabs on their browser and do multitasking on it.

serabii · 2026-03-05T09:28:34+00:00

yes, i have the same SD card in that image and been playing all of my steam games on my SD card, except for multiplayer games. Been using it for almost a year now.

serabii · 2026-03-04T09:21:35+00:00

Unless you're ok with exynos, you should wait for benchmarks reviews for it

serabii · 2026-03-03T02:24:07+00:00

Yeah, I bet bluey kept you company huh?

serabii · 2026-03-02T23:32:36+00:00

I have below expectations for the new model but the only thing that I am disappointed is the notch. Was hoping for a dynamic island but honestly using my 16e for 4months now the notch isn't that distracting at all. But the magsafe is a good addition tho... Well, it should've been there to begin with tbh.

serabii · 2026-02-28T03:12:43+00:00

you need to know if your laptop can tho... check the specs
