Should i get this or the new M5 MBP? I mostly just browse 4chan, watch YouTube and ise Logic Pro sometimes.
>>
>>108302013
Logic Pro runs on an ipad right? You should be fine with the Neo. If not that, the Macbook Air is still a thing.
>>
>>108302000
It's a good product. The regular macbooks with the M series chips are way too powerful for most people.

I have an M4 15” air already i just feel like consoooming.

Wait for the new aluminumOS laptops from Google. This Neo release is Apple panicking, they know that these android based ARM laptops will be a big hit

Hard pass.

MacBook Neo had more impact in this board than the AI garbage that is supposedly revolutionary.

Why would they be a big hit? Zoomers don't buy laptops to run Android apps, they buy them to run programs that don't run on phones/tablets and do shit that you can't realistically do on a phone/tablet that well, but this Aluminium OS won't immediately be able to run those programs on launch.

in the tech world, they really don't matter—unless you're selling iphones

how does this phone chip compare to the m1 air?
>>
>>108302000
It is impossible for Apple to make a good product due to their habit of using close source software.

They have just come out with a new and cheap way to induct more normies into their ecosystem.

Only way I give a modicum of a shit about this product is if somebody figures out how to put Linux or BSD on it.

usecase for laptops?
phone plus desktop cover all things much better

>>108302000
It's really just an iPhone with a keyboard attached.

How many rupees does Apple pay per thread, sir?
>>
>>108303035
the banchmarks put it slightly ahead
but it will throttle like a mf under load since it's a tiny chip and not designed for any sustained load like on desktop
>>
>>108303645
so not really an upgrade for me then. i’ll just keep rocking the m1 air cause it still werks
>>
>>108303648
it should get OS updates for some time if the Neo is Apple's minimum spec for the future
>>
>>108303102
If you want to just run linux there are a million better alternatives for that price.

>>108303186
you use them when you ride a train in Europe

>>108303833
yea, doesn't take much to outperform an Apple device, let alone one one running on an IPhone cpu

pfft

>>108302000
I actually know how to use tech, so why would I buy a locked down toy?

Remember when this board used to shill the thinkpad x220 and t420 as the de-facto official laptops of /g/? What happened?
>>
>>108303997
They're old tech now. Their time has come and gone. It's time to move on.
Let me guess you're still using X11? Refuse to move on? Can't let go of the past?
You can't go back, you can never go back. Chud
