Apple MacBook Ultra has just been announced.$2899 for base-level 14"$3399 for base-level 16"
>>110187135This was obviously dogshit - they pushed the good new MBpro refresh back a year. I bought an M5 macbook air last week while the trade-in prices for older stuff were still high.
where's the fucking event coverage
THE ILLUMINATED LOGO IS BACK
>ProLED XDRWhat kind of shitty name is this

Dogshit update
>>110187307The Apple log on the back glows again! lmao.
>>110187135>double-tap a window to fill the screen, or flick to tile it into placeoh fuck I'm gonna flick it
No fucking changes beside the screen? When the M5 Max chip is thermal throttling in the 14" chassis and when the 96 W charge limit is no longer enough to actually power the laptop?
>>110187343They added the "dynamic island" which is literally the worst update to the iphone I can remember. I hate that feature and when I saw this would have that I immediately bought a different laptop.
Apple keeps winning
>>110187468use case?
>>110187135not even m6
its funny just a few days ago i saw apple fanboys saying touchscreens dont belong on laptops because nobody who does real work needs a touchscreen. looking forward to them shilling for this saying its the best thing ever now.
They keep adding features people have been wanting but still hold back on others. Why is there no pencil support? Because that would cannibalise the iPad Pro sales. They keep making all of their products closer and closer to each other feature-wise but just different enough that you can't buy only one that does everything. If they really wanted to make a killer product they'd add pencil support and make the display rotate 360 degrees. Maybe in 5 years.
>>110187135Honestly, what's the point? A touchscreen on a laptop?
>>110187924Retarded decision. Nobody ever uses the touchscreen on a laptop because you have much superior input devices attached to the device.
>>110187827>looking forward to them shilling for this saying its the best thing ever nowWon't happen, look at MacRumors, look at Apple subreddits, everyone's saying touchscreen is a piece of shit useless gimmick
>>110187924>>110187940Here’s the thing. They could’ve released this with Apple Pencil Support and 360 degrees hinges to make the touch feature actually matter. It now it’s just a touch screen with nothing else to offer.
>>110187917> Why is there no pencil support? Because that would cannibalise the iPad Pro sales. That’s mega retard logic when the only ones that want to use a laptop like an iPad Pro are artists and the other tablet companies are quickly catching up to Apple’s portable tablet niche with 12 inch, 13 inch, and 14 inch tablets with stylus that don’t need to be charged.> Maybe in 5 yearsWe don’t have 5 years. Everyone here is so blind with what is coming. If these bastards want to shot to shoot themselves in the foot by their own nonsense greed, I will reward them horrifically.
>>110187363The dynamic island is fine on their phones only because it's used for FaceID. It seems like after a decade Apple still hasn't managed to slim the FaceID module down to fit in the laptop screen for some reason.
>>110188252That would dig into iPad sales it's never happening.
>>110187135I paid $1600 for m4 pro with 24gb ram
>>110187468>PROLED HUHUH>GET IT?? HUHUHUHUH
>>110187135These stupid niggers didn't even get the M6 Max out lmao3dI'm buying a Windows laptop next time
>>110188821we know, stinkpad anon
>>110188845Not him, but I'd easily take a Zenbook Duo with a 358H over the touchscreen abomination Macbook since the Zenbook's touchscreen is actually useful.
>>110187135damn it's mid. i'll wait for the M7 series then
>>110188510The iPads are smaller than the Macs, and they even have IPad minis because people complained about how big the pros are. There is zero cannibalism here besides for giving the artists in the ecosystem an actual super-portable medium sized tablet to work with.
>>110187222>>110188793Looks like the proles got LED on by the industry again XDThe R stands for Repeat
>>110189299There is an iPad of almost every size and they all support Sidecar and the pencil.
>>110188979>358HI hate that I can't find this thing in a nice normal 14" laptop outside of a crazy overpriced XPS. That's all I want.
Xdr got PROLED
>have light up logo>don't have light up logo>reintroduce light up logo>omg so kewlll!!jfc this world is retarded
>>110189568Not really. A main point about the IPad Pro is that it’s supposed to be an art tablet and Apple hasn’t made any 14 inch or 16 inch versions. They’re just a tid bit small to be a medium which is the main thing I was trying to find because grabbing a laptop and a tablet and the stupid wires is annoyingly stupid for a “portable” experience.
>>110188510the ipad is a poor product and the sales numbers are terrible.just as jobs called touchscreen laptops "ergonomically terrible", he said that "if you don't cannibalize yourself, someone else will".
>>110189302Pretty good.
>>110190553He also stole everything from xerox and movies like space odyssey and star trek. Even stole that picasso quote about great artists stealing lol
>>110187135>can your currynigger silicon beat an N95 yet?didn't think so
>>110187164>where's the fucking event coverage
>>110191172
MacBook PROLED XDR or MacBook "prole'd" XDR?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2reQut8WNGc
>>110191560BASED
>>110188252You can't release too much stuff all at once. They have a ten-year road map for what you're listing.
this is what $3000 buys you in yurop right now
>>110187135Oh wow, 16 inches. Crazy. Lets connect an external monitor... Oh no, touch screen is now out of reach.
>>110192057Danish is such an ugly language to the ears
No liquid cooling...
>>110192057>inkl. momsIncluding moms? Are they hot?
>>110192057I have the 2025 version because I needed a portable linux platformThis computer is literally inferior to a 2020 macbook air m1 in every way
Rip macbook prothis shit is going to burn in a year
>>110188979Too bad Asus ZenBooks have terrible build quality. The lid on mine no longer wants to close properly and I had to open it up and dissemble the fan to relube it because it started grinding, also my screen is slightly flexing due to the hinge issue, also my "S" key just popped out and broke for no reason forcing me to buy a replacement.If I had not gotten it at almost 50% of I would have been pissed.
>>110193229>a literal laundry list of issuesyeah, i know what the actual problem is. seen this shit countless times through college and work.
>>110194051What's the problem? my laptop stays home 95% of the time. My old Alienwares and Macbook Pros didn't have these issues.
>>110192824maybe I will pick up a miniled m6 before all they offer is oled.
>>110187135unironically the best pc in the marketwindows, amd, nvidia and intel (kek) are doing fuck all to give consumers a light in the tunnel of AI despairapple just keeps releasing hardware and now it became a gamer's goldmine thanks to the ARM architecture and Switch parity, to the point that the first Switch recomps have released on MacOS lol
>>110192824That's not an iPad Pro, looks more like an Air which has an LCD screen.
>>110187135>currybook
>>110187135feel like it's gonna be a while before I really want to upgrade from my 128GB M4 Max
>>110200155>currybook
>>110200241why did that seem like a relevant thing to post in response to a 128GB memory model?
>>110200416>he thinks his currybook is safelollmao even
>>110200416SAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRR
>>110200512my SSD is at 3% used after 2 years of constant use>>110200515what a clusterfuck. react le bad and using idle memory le bad?I have a high-end desktop I could use instead, but I just use it for gaming because that's what it's actually good for
>>110192042Jesus is coming faster than their dumb road map and trust me he will be raging against them for it for many reasons.
>>110199897it's 11 inch ipad pro
