Many popular Windows laptops e.g. Thinkpad look like that.
And since they are targeting younger people for Facetime maybe not surprising they didn't choose the most expensive, flagship phone.

- FireBeyond 5y agoAnd yet iPhones are flagship phones... Taste is subjective. Anyone arguing that the MBP is objectively better than, say, https://icdn.digitaltrends.com/image/digitaltrends/dell-xps-15-oled-2021-laptop-625x417-c.jpg https://icdn.digitaltrends.com/image/digitaltrends/dell-xps-... is just expressing their preferences. And I say that as someone who is waiting on delivery of the 14" MBP.

So taste maybe subjective. But there is simply no argument that if you care about performance or battery life then the MacBook Pro is objectively better.
- smoldesu 5y agoHow does it fare in price/performance? I'd wager that's what will matter more than performance/watt to 90% of customers.
- lotsofpulp 5y ago90% of customers only need MacBook airs, which have been at the top of price/performance for a decade.
- smoldesu 5y agoReally? I'd love to see a source for how the $900 Intel MBAs stacked up against equivalently priced laptop hardware.
- FireBeyond 5y agoRight. I just ordered the M1 Max, for similar reasons. Even against my mid 2019 MBP. The iPhone / Android objection still stands.
