I can't believe apple fucked this up so badly this time. I know that their engineers always create new prototypes, but what made them think that this one was worth selling? The same price as the macbook pro, much less performance, the same battery life.

I bet the 15 inch Macbook Pro will use the same touchpad, the same screen technology and the same full size keyboard, making this computer completely obsolete.
Why is there a demand for computers that are that light? Some argue that even modern business laptops are too thin.

Wrong. This form factor will become the standard/mainstream for years to come. The Pro series will continue to be heavier/denser and have higher end processors.

I realize you probably didn't go to a top-tier business school, but Apple is likely trying to segregate its internal market into 3 niches (macbook/air/pro). The 3 will cater to 3 different types of users with little overlap.
You're welcome

Well, the thing is that if you seriously never do anything taxing with your computer, then a light machine with a high resolution and good battery life really is better for you.

And we know that that's what the plebs are doing. The average computer user doesn't need to compile huge C++ projects where just the linking takes 2 minutes; The average user does so little with a computer that smartphones can, and basically have replaced PCs for them. Why would they want to carry around a 3KG laptop instead of a light, tiny phone or tablet?

I think that those people are the target group for this laptop.

Regular people don't give a shit about functionality if it doesn't have aesthetics. Macbook has a 16:10 screen and the width of the black border around the screen is equal on all sides. Zenbook has a 16:9 screen and the width of the border around the screen isn't equal on all sides. The surface pro 3 has a black border where the width is equal on all sides and it makes it look better, but it still doesn't have a 16:10 screen. The ratio of the screen and the border around it will determine the shape of the bottom part and if the laptop looks to wide or too square it will look like shit.

Except the Macbook is a poor compromise between the Pro and Air. ESPECIALLY considering the price.

Want power? Go Pro.
Want a good screen? Go Pro or Macbook
Want good battery life? Go Air.
Want something light? Go Air or Macbook.

Sure, the Macbook is thinner and lighter than the Air, but not enough for /g/ or even normal consumers to care. Out of those 4 pieces of criteria, the Macbook ties for two and wins NONE. That's not even considering value.

That's why I'm really hoping for a souped up ARM SoC in next year's Macbook with similar performance to the Core M (hell, the Air 2's SoC is basically already there) and a much lower price tag.

Let's say Apple adopts a new Soc naming scheme. A9 for iPhone, A9X for iPad, A9 Pro for Macbook.

>12 inch Macbook with A9 Pro, better performance than Core M with much better graphics
>4GB/128GB model for $799 and 8/256 for $1k

That's what I wanna see.

top kek.

Have you seen benchmarks of the most ARM chromebooks in comparison to Intel's offerings? The battery life isn't even better these days either.

Hey g, I've got the ux305.

Any questions you've got ask away

>>46975836
How's the keyboard?
>>
>>46975864
I think its great. everything is well spaced, travel distance is good. Took a little time getting used to the pg down up end and home keys which are FN + arrow keys but its really comfy to type on.
>>
>>46975836
Battery life, key travel, trackpad.

Shit taste in waifu, monitor and glasses btw.
>>
>>46975836

How hot does it get under stress (furmark, prime95, etc.), and does the battery measure up to what they claim?

Since I usually charge at about 20%, I can get about 6-7 hours using chrome or media player classic on stuff with wifi on.

Track pad is good. I use the two finger tap as right click alot which was something my older laptop didnt have support for. It's kind of loud to click so thats why I use the tapping stuff.
I talked about keyboard here>>46975887
>>
>>46975887
Not my waifu, I really dislike persona 4, i have it set to the guy from seinfeild and that blue fairy from tohou and Chie. Chie just happened to be there.
Also glasses I recently got from a long time friend in the business. $100 even for a pair of raybands. Ive never needed glasses before, I like them.

Holy shit. Do a "view source" on that page and check out the Javascript. It looks like something that belongs in a "CS Graduate Meme" thread. Here are some highlights in case the page gets changed/removed.

Making another script tag with document.write.
if (window.location.host == "www.asus.com.cn") {
!window.jQuery && document.write(unescape('%3Cscript src="/js/web/jquery.js"%3E%3C/script%3E'))
}

Yeah, I had a HP laptop with page up, down, home and end keys Fn mapped to the arrows before and while its not a deal breaker I wish they would have put physical keys on there for them. There is even enough room above the left and right arrows to work them in.

At least it doesn't have the retarded full size left and right with half size up and down keys like the HP had. Fucking miserable design.

I've played phantasy star online 2 on 720-1080p and have got 60fps on battery saver and normal, its never really gotten uncomfortably hot.

When I'm just browsing or occasional youtube video its not much warmer than a smartphone on load

The "dirt" is little fibers from all the tissues I go through. I've got bad alergies and california is going through a bit of a hot dry period and its very hard to not have a runny nose even with medicine.
I clean it at the end of the day every day, not a lot I can do about that.

I will never buy from Asus again if this is any representation of their quality control.

shit, i hate the way other companies market their products. I mean, apple, displays ads of the product itself or what can the user do/make with that thing. i don't understand why other companies always try to throw shit at other products.

I had the first gen one. It was fucking shit. Terrible keyboard, ssd failed after 6 months, crap battery life, 1600x900 TN. The lid was not sturdy at all. It would flex if I was just holding it in one hand.
