Yeah, now he can work all day on battery instead of having to carry around a charger because the shitty ass laptop is out of battery in 2 hours somehow, depite being much slower than the macbook
Just saying, if you had spent as much on a laptop as you did on a MacBook, you would get a full work days of battery.
It’s the same failure point apple fans have about Android. Yeah there are cheap androids. They suck, but also they cost$100-$200 new. What’s apples offering in that price range?
Realistically with the new apple M-series stuff this is just not the case. The battery life is absolutely nuts. Especially compared to high end Linux laptops.
The new Snapdragon laptops are getting 15h+ of battery life, which is a couple of hours less than the new Macs (macs have bigger batteries) in the same benchmarks. The next gen Ryzen AI 300 Omnibook is said to have 20h+… but why do people want so much out of their battery? I’ve only used laptops for work and I can’t remember being more than a couple of hours at a time outside a dock.
Yeah, it’s not a brand man. That’s part of what makes it great. A brand is something created to profit off of, which always ends up worse for the end user. Linux is not there to make profit. It’s whole purpose of existing is to serve the user.
If you wanted this, you don’t need a dam apple laptop, but at the same time, the closest competitor is the new snapdragon laptops that are closer to having up to a week of battery life. Also, they are capable of running more than you can on an apple machine, albeit it is early progress in proper x86 emulation, and more productivity programs are starting to support it.
So, no, you are NOT forced to make a decision to get a MacBook and the price gouging you experience.
Even then, picking a device for your use case is extremely important. I know many people who can survive with lower powered devices as they only use it for web browsing or documents like Excel or Word. Which an apple device would work well for but seriously is complete overkill and overpriced for.

Cheerleading for brands is cringe
Stating facts is cheerleading?

I can buy what I want mate. But thanks for the unnecessary info dump
I’ve never met an Applesexual before.
Never met a peach sexual before
