Laziaf, 25 Nov 2020This is probably one of the worst takes I've ever seen... moreWhat garbage argument is that?
First I paid for the Windows license. Windows is never preinstalled in any laptop. There are even pirated versions of Windows.
The laptop costs more than $600 in my country. We are not talking about price to performance ratio. The laptop only offers a FHD screen with low screen brightness. It does not support the DCI-P3 or sRGB color space fully. i5 is a mid-range processor. A Macbook Air running on i5-8210Y (dual-core downclocked CPU), despite easily throttled, still has better performance than a regular CPU (i5-6200U), not downclocked. Both are using 14nm node.
MacOS destroys Windows OS except for gaming. MacOS Big Sur looks clean and refined.
This is not an iPhone with many shortcomings. Just bearing Apple logo doesn't mean it is an inferior product. Even Huawei and Xiaomi are trying to cheat from Apple but uses a different CPU

You were... moreThe moment people hear an OS they are not familiar with (like MacOS), they turn their attention towards buying a proper Windows laptop which destroys any MacBook, based on Software alone.
Window is the first choice of OS on PC platform, nobody cares about alien Mac OS.

AnonD-889996, 25 Nov 2020People said Windows is handicapped, but no one knows that 3... moreExactly. I like Macbooks hardware but I don't like the OS. That's why I'm sticking with Windows with a lot of the questionable hardware decisions by HP or Dell or Asus. MacOS is the one that is unable to perform lots of things, not Windows. And no, brands like razer or alienware which actually makes good Windows laptops are not available in my country. Even the XPS isn't.

1. Windows is free. Microsoft even has tools for you to make a windows 10 bootable usb
2. You're comparing a laptop which costs at most $600 when it released 5 years ago to a $1000 from 2020. Obviously, the $1000 will be much faster.

botox, 24 Nov 2020People are really confused about Apple as a company. Apple ... moreunfortunately people will believe the Apple marketing more than actual technology sites. a lot still don't realize that the so called thunderbolt port is literally a USB-C port. But at the same time, one can't help but be impressed at the marketing Apple does to make a lot of consumers believe in it.

People said Windows is handicapped, but no one knows that 32-bit support is removed in newer Mac OS, making most app and even Steam games would not run at all. Use your brain and research first before saying nonsense here.

Windows laptops ... moreMacos has a relatively small market share
Not many people can afford getting a basic laptop at 1000 dollars, so no matter how good the macbook is, it will never be used by that many

Antutu said that the a14 has lower clock speed, that has been proven false too.
Not only can't they compare to androids, they now also can't compare each generation of iPhone.
No matter if iPhones score higher than androids it antutu, it ultimately does not matter cause antutu is still inaccurate either way.

Coming from an Acer Aspire S5 (i5-6200U) laptop.
Windows is not free. Then there is that McAfee bloatware. Laptop crashes and freezes often, even if there are no suspicious apps running. Windows Edge is cr*p. We're talking about a midrange laptop, not a low-end running on Pentium processor.
MacOS is the OS of choice except for gamers, with great optimisation and clean UI. Security is not better than Windows, however.

You were first comparing iPhones with androids on antutu when antutu themselves say doing that isn't accurate.
Now you're saying that benchmarks are only for bragging rights.
Antutu be raging that their most loyal android boizzz are now leaving them just to be the ultimate hypocrite.

Android Authority, 24 Nov 202011 pro got destroyed in every speed test.
Snapdragon 875 w... moreHaha try again.
In Speed Test G iPhone 12 wipes the competition clean with 63 seconds. Even with thermal throttling (which has been debunked by Gary Explains), iPhone 12 finishes the test in 68 seconds. iPhone 11 Pro Max did a lot worse with too much throttling (15%) in the same test.
Snapdragon 875 may only beat iPhone 12 if we're talking about gaming phones like ROG Phone 4 with dedicated performance mode.
Apple M1 processor has done extremely well in video editing suites. Ignore Geekbench as it's biased.
