I’m gonna buy a laptop anons. What do recommend, use currently and what would be your upgrade when you make it.

Applefag so im leaning towards a MacBook Pro. Tell me the pros and cons and what you trade on anons.

I have the M3 Pro Max, and it's a decent machine. I work as a dev and probably could have got away with the Air, but I use multiple external monitors, and it only supports one, so I went for the pro instead.

Nice. Does the M3 max make a lot of noise I’ve read that it can get loud. I’m thinking the M3 pro with few upgrades is around 3100 is good. The M3 max start at 3500 and nosies bother me but I don’t think I’ll be doing anything to big to make it run full capacity

Alright, I use a Macbook M1 Air 2020 because the only thing I value is being able to browse the internet and watch movies at high resolution without the laptop getting warm. Decent battery time.
I wouldn't mind buying non-apple next time since I don't care at all for MacOS, but still waiting for other laptops to offer the same without cheap nasty plastic or low resolution screen.
It looks like I might be able to get a half decent Linux install on it soonTM since speaker support is finally here ( https://github.com/AsahiLinux/docs/wiki/M1-Series-Feature-Support ), but by the time I would consider it overall "ready" I'm probably about to buy a new laptop anyways. Will mess around with it soon though.

If you don't give a fuck about extra features just get the cheap one, but maybe a bit more than 8gb ram. Works more than fine for me to browse the net though since I'm not a 100 tab whore.

That cheap plastic is what gets to me. I don’t the look or feel. MacBooks looks and feels solid and clean.

I’m not to big on features. 20-30 tab whore on my best night. Mainly I want to be fast and seamless. So that why I’m thinking about a few upgrades on the M3 pro. Don’t think I’ll do enough to have a m3 max.

They don't heat up. Apple chips are super efficient and the whole chassis cools it down anyway.

OP just get some kind of Apple laptop they're way better than anything else. Cooler, better battery life better performance, better build quality.

Is a M1 air obsolete already?
I still use a 2015 air lmao, it still holds up for regular use, but now I have to do some image/video editing so need to upgrade. Now that I think about it, this computer holding up for 7 years of daily use with zero issues is insane.

>Is a M1 air obsolete already?
I’m fine with mine. People just want new new new. Can probably get an M1 pretty cheap now. No idea how the Air is for video editing, not something I do. You should probably consult with someone who does that specifically and has used the M1. Or just look at benchmarks.

I work with two laptops. One is a MacBook Pro and the other a Thinkpad. Both have 32GB but it's a world of difference. The Apple has better screen, battery, looks, speakers, trackpad etc. The Lenovo is a chinky plastic pile of shit that makes noise all the time. It's very difficult to get the MacBook fan to fire up even when doing intense tasks like compiling code for example.

Yeah, I can get a barely used 16gb 512ssd M1 for pretty cheap from a guy I know, that's what's making me even think about the M1 instead of something more recent.
Will see about those benchmarks.

Can’t really recommend you a machine without knowing what you use it for. I’m a developer, so specs are important. If you’re just trading shitcoins and interneting you can do that on anything and don’t need to spend much at all

I bought this a year ago, it’s like $580:
Lenovo Flex 5 Laptop, 14.0" FHD Touch Display, AMD Ryzen 5 5500U, 16GB RAM, 512GB Storage, AMD Radeon Graphics
If you don’t want or need the flex feature then get something else. Only thing I do t like is the screen doesn’t get as bright as I’d like, otherwise very good would recommend.

Upgraded from top-spec 2019 intel MBP to Pro 3 Max,
Night and Day doesn't even cover it. The Pro 3 is an absolute fucking beast. I never owned an M1 or M2 so maybe the leap from those isn't as significant, but going straight from Intel to M3 is like owning going from the horse and cart to the stealth bomber.
