The Lenovo Air 13 Pro comes out with 8Gb of RAM not 4Gb and it's also running the i7 not the i5. I think the review was done on the lower spec Lenovo Air 13.

Gilda, 29 Jul 2016No real gamer plays on a laptop so your argument is invalid... moreBut I was expecting a gaming laptop from Mi, since almost everyone speculated a gaming capable machine. You can search of "Mi Laptop Core i7 gtx 970m" and you'll see famous and genuine news sites saying so.
Yes, I'm a gamer and due to my travelling job, I need a new gaming lappy only. I would gladly leave Windows for Mac, if there were enough mainstream games for it...
I'm not a Windows Fan, specially after Windows 10, the giant life-spyware.
@xeroxxxx : Yes true, but I love to play games, a Mac doesn't support most of the mainstream games.... I still consider Apple more ethical than Microsoft, although I have none of their products so far.

I am senior web developer. I use mainly Java and JS based languages, scripts and tools. I can surely afford Macbook Pro with whatever config, even get it for free from company I work for. I still don´t want it. It has nice look, solid chasis. I believe Mac OS to be really nice system. But so is Windows, which still has some additional value for me in terms of occasional games and C++ programming. Stop saying no one who can afford Mac wants it. Seems like spoiled childrends good night story these days.

Could you explain? Do you mean someone else internally trademarked "Apple" in China?
And, the Foxconn plant making iPhones for apple, is located in China, right?

They want their ultrabooks for work and gaming and not for show people how cool they are, so they need a real PC and because of that they buy these kind of offers instead apple useless ultrabooks.

Lenovo Air 13 Pro vs Mi Notebook Air (13,3" model)
2GB NVIDIA GT940MX vs 1GB NVIDIA GeForce 940MX
4GB RAM vs 8GB of DDR4 RAM
1.29kg vs 1.28kg
Port is still unkown vs (2x USB 3.0, 1x HDMI, 1 USB-C, 1x 3,5mm jack, and free SATA slot for some extra storage, provided that you allow the OEM to install it for you, as the laptop is not user-servicable)
Same procie Intel I5-6200U
Same storage 256GB of PCIe SSD
Same thickness 14.8mm
Same pricing RMB 4,999 ($750)
Regardless the port, it's a very similar notebook except:
4 GB RAM and 2GB NVIDIA GT940MX vs 8GB RAM and 1GB NVIDIA GeForce 940MX
