Air: same 1366x768 TN piece of shit you find on $200 craptops, and it's glossy on top of that

Pro: if you try to use the high end hardware they cram into it, it catches fire

They're all utter shit, and only a moron would buy any of them.

Actually the Air uses IPS panels and run at 1440x900 as the other Anon said. Also it works with ambient light sensor for automatically adjusting brightness. It's without a doubt a lot better than regular laptop screens.

Netbooks are better because they're just as functional, no glossy screen, just as good battery life, smaller battery.

So? They're not even calibrated properly. Most windows ultrabooks have IPS displays which are calibrated. You act like only macbooks have an ambient light sensor too.

I also don't get anyone who keeps saying the resolution is at 768p when literally 2 seconds at the Apple web site will show you it's 900p.

I'm neither an iShill nor an Indian. I just like to get work done on my laptop, and after a lot of research I decided to get a 2015 MacBook Air for long battery life, durability, and portability.

Considering it looks very much like an MBP and the stealth looks even nicer, I'm gonna say your definitely wrong. You THINK when people see the Apple logo their thoughts are as glorifying of you as you feel of yourself but in reality you overpaid for a machine that is functionally less powerful. Whenever someone doesn't confirm how you feel about yourself you just write them off as having no taste or being unhandsome losers, unlike you who has it on very good authority from their mother that you're quite handsome indeed.

Lmao at the fucktard Apple haters in here

Windows is deprecated for years now. How can you stand that piece of shit OS?

And Apple build quality being shit is a meme. There are literally now Windows laptops that can compete in the same price range, everything that's good is effectively double the price where I'm from. Not everyone on /g/ lives in the U.S.

If you wanna say the UX305 is a good alternative to the Air, you obviously have never used one and are only basing your opinion on pictures seen online. I've used every iteration of the Zenbook since it was first announced, and it has always been shit. The keyboard is just the same kind of plasticky shit found in cheaper models. Some Eee keyboards felt better, even.

Apple is Apple but Windows in general just sucks balls now and there's no excuse anymore. That's why I bought a 2015 Air after years and years of abusing myself with old ThinkPads.

Just accept it nerds.
