my mac book air screen literally died because I closed the case on my headphone cable
frick apple and everything about them other than the gesture controls on the touchpad
as if it was my fault what the frick
a cheap laptop from 2002 has more durability still to this day than any premium apple laptop in 2024 which is crazy

>AMD
can you give me some AMD laptops for Graphics Design and some Coding with batteris that will last through a whole day of editing photos and videos, please
Why do you need a whole day coding and editing videos away from an electrical outlet while your cpu gets capped to save battery? Such a weird case scenario >hey i need a car for a 990 miles freeway without a gas station
Yep we all do right?
Weird
You are weird.
What this anon said. But, I'll humor you. Basically any laptop with a AMD CPU and a Nvidia dedicated GPU in the $500-1000 price range will do. Avoid HP, ASUS, Apple, basically everything but Lenovo and Dell/Alienware. Those are the only laptop brands that I trust. I spent a year as a repair tech, Lenovo and Dell know how to design laptops to last. Its the little things that matter. Metal screw posts instead of plastic, no plastic clips, removable keyboards/mousepads, proper cooling for the power hungry chips, etc etc. No battery is going to sustain a maximum load for more than 2-3 hours, no matter the manufacturer.

None of those are hard to install on a MacBook with simple tools.
>a whole day of editing photos and videos
apple shitty benchmarks for battery duration are with "watching videos and light web-browsing", if you try to do actual work on them of course the fricking battery won't last long
Macs just have insanely large batteries, Chromebooks do the exact same shit >build small SoC >stuff thing with batteries >24hrs of battery
My L14 Gen2 is a 6 core amd laptop gets me about 8 hours. Really all I need, if going far out of my way will just bring my external battery to charge it
Apple neutered their computers with cellphone CPUs. That's why they have such long battery life, because anything like GTA V or x265 will run slow as balls.
>inb4 "just use le he king hw video encoder!"
SOME of us care about compression efficiency believe it or not.
why is it that threads like this are always full of poorgays that will do incredible mental gymnastics to justify inferior products, the question was if there are laptops with better battery:performance, it wasnt if Macs are expensive or not
Android anything is pretty good too
Chromebook as well

>things that totally happened
You don't believe that? Have you ever seen the cat webms?
I don't believe you owned a gaybook at any point of your life.
>broke my screen because i'm stupid
>why did it break. frick apple

Yes
AMD btfos the frick out of Apple, this is old news. Stop buying into the Appleshills lies.

>nothing comes close to Macs?
XPS comes close
Also
>phone cpu vs jack-of-all-trades x86
Ofcourse the phone cpu wins

Yes. But why wouldn't you plug your laptop in for maximum performance?
How much does Apple pay you to advertise here?

Nobody here cares about emulating ancient childrens' games instead of real productivity and build quality
You're missing the point.
Modern apple computers are like men without wiener and balls. You can't say hook up an eGPU to compensate for the turd iGPU.

AMD is pretty fricking good these days with the 6040 and 7040 series.
My GPD Win mini gets 8 hours doing basic shit and it's a tiny handheld.
Literally anything past 202X
