Otherwise, it's about the same as an Intel Bay Trail

Cause the TDP doesn't allow it to burst for a longer period

cherry trail?

Well, Bay and Cherry don't differ too much

ah okay

my laptop lasts 12 hours on a text editor, no wifi, the screen dimmed on a 4 cell battery

interesting,

It's a typical Intel stepping

i wonder if xiaomi air might be better as a chrome os?

Maybe

I'd want to see Chrome OS on tablets

i'd put a lightweight distro on it

It feels like it's more suited for that

imo the xiaomi air 13 is a much better value proposition

That's like 750 bucks

hmm, i wonder if the usb c is thunderbolt.

That's pretty much on-level with most i5U lappies

I dunno why google thought it was a good idea to seperate chrome os from android.....................

Well

It can run most Android apps nowaday

eh.

tbh, i'd be down for a refresh of chrome pixel

Oh kek, I was just meme:ing with the 750 price tag

But it seems I'm correct

like, if i want chrome os, id' want a high resolution web machine, I wouldn't mind paying premium, but the pixel was simply too ridiculous of a price.

That's more than what I paid for my gayman laptop

And it's significantly more powerful

The mroe expensive air 13, is 860.

yeah but you can't get pussy with a gayman laptop

i'm more than happy with my current laptop; xps 13.

Of course I can @zero

Does having it in your bag count?

"hey babe check out my torrent folder"

no

>"Hey baby, check out this smooth metal"

>"Now imagine it's my DICK"

chicks dig smooth metal

no argument

I have one of these, btw

I have a "gaming laptop" with an a10 in it, but it doesn't look stupid and does everything I want of it, light gaming, practicing my programming, and steam streaming when I wanna play more demanding things someone more comfortable

yeah

Could've gotten a 4K screen for another 80 bucks, but eh

i'd be impressed if you coudl pickk up half a kilo of ass with that laptop

You guys probably see the futility of that

unlikley though

>mfw 4k on xps 13 was another 400 dollars

also

why the fuck aren'there more 4:3 laptops?

like jesus, it's so cancer everything is still 1920x1080

@zero Dunno, it actually looks like an older ultrabook in terms of slimness

I mean it could be worse, it could be 1366x768

And the coating is that of an Asus, just black

"anon, your keys are red, i'm going to sleap with another male"

my two laptops are 1366x768, but it isnt bad for what I use them for

must be hard being you

kek

1366x768 feels so awful to use

Honestly though, I fell for the Thinkpad keyboard meme

i have a 768

size is just big enough to enjoy one window open, but too small to have two open comfortably

oh gots 768 is awful

absolute no vertical resolution

it's so awful to use for text

yeah

My acer laptop is basically just the machine I practice coding on, and bring along when I'm gonna do light browsing etc, and the battery life is rediculous on it

768 is fine for video tbh, but man I use a lot of my laptop for typing and shit, so it's just so awful

>he has "a microphone, a proper microphone" but no proper screen

the thing is super underpowered, but if I could get something like a 9 cell battery for it it'd probably last a day or two on battery

Is there actually an Acer laptop with a decent keyboard?

@cathy is that directed at me?

I've tried typing on most of them are they're either:

A) Super mushy with no key travel

or

B) No key travel and really low actuation points ala ultrabooks

I've got, what is it, the e5-511 p0gc or whatever the full model name is

i think the thing i hate the most about my laptop is the spacebar

i rush my typing enough as it is i dont need a broken spacebar

I remember that one, one of my project members had one of those

It falls into A)

I dont' think i've ever used an acer laptop i've actually liked.......

@zero Yeah

man i hate my acer laptop

At least Acer lappies are better cooled than HPs

I love mine for the battery life

@cathy i'd like to clarify then that i also have a normal PC

HP lappies have this "cooling" software that automagically increases the laptop's temperature

which my mic is connected to

i had an acer laptop for like 2 years, which was awesome, since I got it for such a good deal.

but, i hated using it

Oh, it's called "CoolSense ™"

i got my acer laptop a few years ago, all that added mumbojumbo like the proprietary color set up and shit, wow, it's horrible

Supposedly, it removes throttling, but the fan sensor system in HP lappies are generally shit, so they end up overheating super fast

yeah, i would never buy an acer laptop brand new

if you need a budget used solution, you can get a really good deal on budget acer laptop

then yeah.

I got my acer laptop on a sale, with a coupon, and my girlfriend worked at the place I was buying from, which was another 10% off, so my Acer laptop was like, $240
