undefined | Better HN

Ok so you couldn’t list a better laptop. Any laptop is good docked and ignoring the noise with headphones. The only thing valuable of your response is the matte screen. Which can be fixed with a cheap Amazon film if wanted. Still with the glossy screen I can see my MacBook much better in direct sun than I can any matte HP elitebook I’ve used in the last 5 years. The sure view screens are actually almost unusable indoors.

Speakers bad in a MacBook? Come on man at least try to be objective.

I did. You just didn't want to listen.

Mac users that list the laptop speakers as good are really digging in. It is marginally better than regular shitty laptop speakers, but it is still very shitty. Any cheap proper speakers are much better, to the point that listing it as a positive is misleading.

And I can use my boring Dell with my windows open on a sunny day without issues. MacBook requires me to close the blinds.

Hate to be that guy, but you literally didn’t. Your “I honestly prefer using my 5 year old Dell G5” does not answer that question.

I presume reading skills are hard to acquire these days. I can tell you in more simple terms. Unfortunately HN does not allow me to draw with crayons:

"Any manufacturer that provides hardware that has screen with a matte finish and whose hardware is not tied to a shitty OS".
