I’m looking for a new laptop for work and realised that all the programs I use also run on Mac OS. I can’t find a windows laptop (within the same price range) that is as thin/light, with such good battery life.
Only problem is that everytime I’ve had to use Mac OS on someone else’s computer, I’ve hated it.
Reflective screens. Good luck getting anything done when your screen turns into a mirror when any sort of light is in the room and also it attracts a megacity’s worth of fingerprints in seconds. Also lack of ports and no option to upgrade the RAM or SSD in the future should you decide to. Oh and good luck getting it fixed (or fixing it yourself) if something goes south.
OK yeah, Macs do have the advantage of a long-lasting battery but you’re probably going to have it plugged in anyway if you’re going to be doing any sort of demanding tasks like gaming or design software.
Then there’s the mouse. AFAIK, you can’t tap on the touchpad to click, have to go all the way to the bottom to left-click. And speaking of clicks, there’s no right-click. And you’ll need a “dongle” for the external mouse too because of course you do.
Idk, man buy a secondhand ROG Zephyrus or something

lol this was not even true 20 years ago and apple touchpads have widely regarded to be superior to the competition since the unibody Macbook Pro was released in 2008.

These are all untrue, you can adjust the trackpad behavior very easily to enable tap to click and even two finger tap to right click. Unless you’re stuck in 2002 with a corded mouse you don’t need a dongle for it.
Have windows people not figured out Bluetooth yet? I haven’t used an external mouse with a cord in over a decade
