Im sorry but you’re letting your Thinkpad snobby side show. I understand where you come from because I thought the same thing. I used thinkpads for long time (as a choice) but the build is shit compared to what Apple is putting out. Maybe they were better in the past, but they need to keep up. I moved from thinkpads to the 14 MBP and I can’t think of a reason I’d want to go back to Thinkpad other than being able to run Linux. I’ll leave the “far superior” keyboard aspect aside because it’s personal preference. I got used to the Apple one and I type much faster than on my x220. But the screen? Come on. Mini Led, high brightness, just looks absolutely great. Thinkpads usually have shit brightness and basic coatings. I’ve even gotten panels from China to make custom replacements for some of mine because of the garbage panels they came with. Speakers are vibrating turds on thinkpads. One day my gf brought her laptop to bed to watch a movie and i thought “there is no way this is going to be enjoyable”. Then i heard it and I was blown away. I then ripped off the speakers off mine and I made custom housing for some speakers out of a MacBook Air for mine. They couldn’t live sounded better if the whole chassis didn’t rattle with the added bass and if the speakers fired up. The soft touch coating on the shell that peels off leaving half shiny half matte, classic no? They are tied on the hinges, both are solid. Thinkpads may have more ports, but honestly I don’t go around plugging my laptop to too many things.
