Needs MagSafe and to be cheaper.

>>55139824
only thing it has going for it is its looks
>>
>>55139852
If it were cheaper I'd definitely buy one for my wife's son.
>>
>>55139824
It's great. The only thing I'm missing is connections (e.g. RJ45). Same issue with things like the Surface Pro. So. Much. Adapters.

>>55139852
I like the USB connector better since it won't force you to buy expensive Apple adapters... Universal stuff is better.

It's pretty good, actually. I hated it at first because of the low key travel, but you get used to that and the feedback is pretty crisp.

yes. They'll make touchscreen "keyboards" soon

Care to explain why? The only thing the magsafe has over USB is it will break less likely if you're a fucktard.
>>
>>55140350
>Care to explain why?
Because of the advantages of MagSafe. Easy to connect, disconnects when strained, doesn't use up a data port.

You're defending bullshit, there's no reason to charge the laptop through USB-C.
>>
>>55139852
>Needs MagSafe
Ebin
>>
>>55140380
Not defending, genuinely curious.
What about your phone? You charge those through USB aswell.
I'd rather have for example 4 USB C ports instead of 3 USB C ports and a magsafe.
>>
>>55140415
>What about your phone?
What about it? That wouldn't be a bad idea, either, but I don't use my phone while charging like I do a laptop.
>I'd rather have for example 4 USB C ports instead of 3 USB C ports and a magsafe.
Why? You now have all the problems that come with the classical charging port. Breakage, reduced ease of use, and the potential for the cable being tripped over to transport your laptop to a hard floor.

It's a huge pile of flaming shit.
>>
>>55140459
It gives me an extra USB port when I'm not charging the device. Seeing as how it already has few ports it could be a benefit.
Also I've never had any device's charging port broken or cable being tripped over. The thing that usually breaks first is the shoddy cables themselves.
Good points though.

Still the patrician choice for Apple Laptops is the rMBP 13 inch.

15 inch if you have the cash and don't mind a bigger laptop.
>>
>>55140499
>It gives me an extra USB port when I'm not charging the device
But you have 3 others and you can use hubs.
>Also I've never had any device's charging port broken or cable being tripped over.
Maybe you haven't, but I have. So have many other people I know. I don't think MagSafe was born out of some obscure issue with laptop power adapters.
>>
>>55139852

Because they clearly did it just to look good. Apple is all about design and marketing. And it works because every single company is copying them, LG, HP, Samsung, etc.

They are setting the tone for future, this is where Apple believes laptops are converging to in a few years.

I heard nothing but good reviews regrading the performance of this notebook and for most people that only need to do web browsing or document typing this is more than enough. Yes it is still very limited compared to a normal ultrabook but to be fair, once processing power on those intels goes up a bit its going to be more than acceptable to have on of those as your main machine.

i like microsofts approach about this on surfaces. 1 magsafe like power and data cable(which can carry way more than usb 3 for docking and egpu purposes) and one usb port.

Incredibly shitty keyboard. You can get an iPad with a decent keyboard case.
>>
>>55142656
Agreed. The keyboard is awful.

The keyboard built into the iPad foldable cover was better than the keyboard in the macbook. It *is* incredibly shitty.
>>
>>55139824
It's slim and looks pretty nice, but I hate the trackpad and the keyboard is pretty much unusable for someone who uses a mechanical keyboard regularly

Yea, that's what I want MagSafe to be. Thunderbolt should use this connector and supply power. Would be a good docking solution.
>>
>>55142797
It's not shitty at all, aside from the lack of travel. The keys give fairly crisp feedback. It's really one of the best laptop keyboards available today.
>>
>>55143889
It's shitty.

The less than a half a millimeter of key travel kills it.

The feedback is crisp and nice, you are right about that. If it had the same travel as the air or pro, it *would* be great, but t doesn't.

I suppose it would work for surfing the web and shit, but if you are typing code or trying to seriously write on it, there's no way. It's not a serious keyboard. It's shit.
>>
>>55143953
Yea, I agree with all of that. I just don't think that the travel issue makes it complete shit.

I hope they don't put it on the pro, but it looks like they will.

it's pretty nice but i wouldn't buy one

i get why theyre so expensive but i dont think its worth it

It's supposed to have more travel on the Pro, if they do go along with it.
>>
>>55139824
An expensive fagbook machine.
>>
I really hope they find a way to make the keyboard feel better. Even if they have to resort to having some kind of haptics under the keys to give it the illusion of being more responsive.

In terms of size and weight... it's near damn perfect, it's a pity the port options are weak as is the processor.

Am I the only one who primarily doesn't like Apple products because their shit looks gay? I mean seriously that laptop looks incredibly feminine and yet somehow boyish at the same time, like a trap, but you should actually feel gay for liking the way it looks.
>>
>>55139824
it's shit
keyboard feels nasty (you could get used to it, but would you want to?)
same with the clickpad -- it's adjustable, but still not nice (but clickpads are bad in general)
no cooling
ports (all most people need is to plug in a flash drive and charge the machine, ideally at the same time)
shit, the MBA is pretty much better in every way except screen (which admittedly is quite a bit worse) and weight (very minor difference) -- keys feel better, has actual ports, has a fan (because under load, the thing will fucking get hot)

I actually really like it. Nice form factor and design. I still think they need to add at least one more USB-C port and include an adapter in the box.

it's also rather expensive for what it is, in comparison with a 13" retina macbook pro.

i have one.
pros:
- it's very light
- battery life is good. last abt 10 hrs+
- the screen is good. once u go retina...
- built in speaker is surprisingly good. better than my thick alienware 15
- the keyboard is bearable after a while
- touchpad is really good. force touch works.
- 16:10 screen. fuck i HATE 16:9 screens with a passion
- it doesn't feel that slow, probably because of the ssd.

bad:
- totally non serviceable, non upgradeable throwaway if obsolete thing.
- single usb-c port changes your habit so you rarely connect to ethernet, thumbdrives, sd cards.. mouse
- expensive
- probably makes me looks gay.

still, with all the cons i still consider this a spiritual successor to my almost 10 yrs old thinkpad X61s

I heard it is your only option if you want to publish an app to the Apple App Store. Is this true?
>>
>>55149106
think about how deep the USB C port is anon. for magsafe to work the port must be fairly shallow so it can easily be removed, the magnet is what holds the connector into the port, not the design of the port itself

so no, there's no way, but it would be cool if the next generation of USB was reversible AND magsafe friendly, but that will never happen

>>55149273
no
why the fuck would apple do that? why would they say "you can only use our lowest end laptop to publish an app"?
