Who would even think this piece of shit is a well designed professional laptop? OSx is even officially worse than w10 now.

How can anyone take apple seriously?
They're even worse now that Steve Jobs is gone.

You can't make this shit up. Why is Applel such a fucking joke?

Yes they are, OS X is less effficient than Windows and way less than Linux (if using hardware with proper drivers obviously, not skylake on kernel 4.0).

>>54776978
You'd think it'll be more optimised because it's only got a very limited range of devices to optimise for though?

What kills their batteries is the general overheating of the whole laptop body. After many years of various housefire battery powered devices I noticed that when I manage to keep them cool (i.e. using them outdoors in winter) even at 100% load they last a lot more compared to when they overheat. So obviously a poorly cooled laptop like a macbook will be very inefficient when is not used to shitpost on facebook.

Macbooks are not made for heavy workloads, everyone who pretends they are workstations is lying, dumb or incompetent

It's advertised as being able to render and edit videos and handle complex workloads.

>incredible power and speed
Yeah while it throttles at 800mhz, the same frequency as the MOTHERFUCKING PENTIUM III IN 2016.

I hate their marketing and even more people falling for their lies because they even pretend understanding technology by spouting lies even better than an apple marketer. Damn even muslim extremists are more open minded than applefags

>Steve Jobs
people need to stop this. he was just a business man.

That's like saying all the companies owned by Trump are successful because of Trump himself.

Because you used Jobs name this way, you are a fanboy. Or atleast were one.

>>54779734
Even you have to admit, the company has gotten even shittier since he left.

Really not a surprise.
>>
>>54779869
So you're admitting I'm right?
At least they sugarcoated it while Steve Jobs was in charge. Now they're just ramming their cocks down consumers throats.

I recently bought a used XPS 13. If I had found an MBP retina for the same price I'd had bought it.

I have no love for Apple and honestly every other product they make I can find a better option for the same price or often cheaper, except for the MBP. No other company does 16:10 screens, and few actually care about screen quality - 1 generation ago Lenovo used 900p (TN?) screens on their >1000$ X1. Their keyboards are shit, but honestly what light laptop has a good keyboard nowadays? And their storage options are great. Overpriced, sure, but great. Their trackpads are fantastic (though still worse than a 18$ Logitech mouse).
Shit build quality though. The ifixit teardown was a shame. Glue in a fucking 1500$ laptop.

To end my blogpost: though they're a company made successful from scamming dumb customers, they have one product that has no actual competition.

Apple is so far behind the times with technology it's sickening. They refuse to update their products and are solely focused on iPhone.

Chasing the quick profits is leaving them vulnerable.
