    I won’t deny that, they got the edge in terms of ARM CPUs but that doesn’t make those the best Laptops on the market, it’s literal EWaste and judging from Apples history that thing probably has a few desing flaws that will lead to breakage with no coverage from their site too. If you ask me you just got your priorities wrong if you buy one of those but I am one of those privacy freaks too so call me crazy if you want.

      I mean, it’s ultimately a matter of opinion as to what makes a laptop the “best” on the market, but it seems like a serious stretch to call them ewaste. I’ve never personally owned an Apple product in my life, but they make some really solid hardware even if it’s sold at a premium.

        The majore issues are, even more moves to restrict repairability on purpose than already common in the industry, refusal to pay for mistakes till lawsuites force them to do so and a history of majore desing flaws in countless products. Louis Rossman dose a good job at showing that, ewaste is a little harsh but I think it’s unfortunately very much appropriate in this case, just my opinion tho.
