But true iFans will call this "all day heavy workload battery life", "nothing is as quiet as a MacBook", "fans are always off even when rendering 6K 60 fps video in FCP", and other nonsense.
Oh yeah, it also has a very slow screen. Truly remarkable laptop 🙃
This post had so much willful ignorance
Let us check whether that post had "so much willful ignorance" or represents facts.
The post mentions the missing "Max Load under Battery Runtime". The review does miss Max Load under battery runtime.
The post mentions the high of 138W power consumption. The review does write: "a maximum of up to 138 watts in the stress test".
The post is generous to ignore this worst case of power consumption and instead only considers the stabilised case.
The post refers to 124W power consumption in stress test. The review does write: "Power consumption [...] in the stress test. This value then stabilized at 124 watts during the test"
The post writes "99.6 Wh battery". The review does write: "Battery
99.6 Wh"
For the 124W power consumption in stress test and the 99.6 Wh battery, the post proclaims: "48 minutes under max load" Let us verify whether this is correct as follows. The 99.6 Wh battery means that the notebooks can provide a power consumption of 99.6W for 1h. The 124W power consumption in stress test is a higher power consumption so it inverse-proportional to the 99.6W for 1h. Accordingly, one must calculate the time of battery duration in stress test as ( 99.6W / 124W ) * 1h ~= 0.803 * 1h ~= 0.803 * 60' ~= 48'. Therefore, the post's statement "48 minutes under max load" is correct.
The post writes: "with 33.9 dB(A) to 55.6 dB(A) that's now basically in a gaming laptop category". So it is. Gaming notebooks tend to be not as silent as good office notebooks in Idle with their up to ~24dB. Gaming notebooks tend to be loud under full load in high performance modes and often are in the mid 50s dB then. Hence, their noise is as the post describes.
The post claims: "it lasts less than gaming laptops". Now, this is an exaggeration. Most gaming laptops under full load tend to have battery durations about 45' to 1h 30'. So the post should write more accurately: "its battery duration under full load is at the lower end of the range of gaming notebooks"
The post claims: "it's louder than gaming laptops" Here, the post is wrong. As discussed above, it would be fair to say: "it is as loud as current average gaming notebooks" Some have less, some have more noise.
The post claims: "it's also weaker in performance than gaming laptops" This statement makes no sense as gaming notebooks come with various configurations, such as 4060 Laptop (weaker or about equal) or 4090 Laptop (clearly much stronger).
The post claims: "all while being ~400 grams lighter on average" I lack information to verify or refute this.
The post states: "it also has a very slow screen" The review writes: "Display [...] 120 Hz [...] Display Response Times [...] 41.2ms [...] 43ms" The display response times, albeit not as terrible as some earlier MBPs, are very slow and, in particular, are much slower than the 16.7ms necessary to perceive at least the easily human-recognisable 60Hz of classic TV display refresh rate (explanation: 16.7ms = 16.7s / 1000 ~= 1s / 60, which is 60Hz). Now to the other value of display speed, the manufacturer-declared refresh rate 120 Hz. Let us assume that it has this. However, the display response times 41.2ms or 43ms, respectively, are a limit of the speed the display can actually show. 120 Hz is declared but the display can actually show only ~42ms. We have 120 Hz = 120/s = 120 / 1000ms, which converts to the time ~8.3ms (We can verify: this is half of the earlier considered 16.7ms for 60Hz). Thus, the manufacturer claims the display speed 8.3ms but the display actually has the much slower speed ~42ms. It may refresh 120 times per second but what it can actually show as response time is ~42ms ~= 42s / 1000 ~= 24Hz, that is, 24 times per second. All this confirms that post's statement "it also has a very slow screen".

Now back to your opinion "This post had so much willful ignorance" as an Apple fan. Your opinion is contrary to the post whenever it refers to numbers:QuoteThe post mentions the missing "Max Load under Battery Runtime". The review does miss Max Load under battery runtime.

Quote from: RealityCheck on November 15, 2024, 01:21:13LOL it destroys every other laptop made in actual work performance, and in real world battery life. Go find any laptop with anywhere this level of performance that can last longer on battery topped out at max performance. You can't find one and anything with an AMD or Intel CPU will burn your lap well before you finish the test..I can't help by wonder why is on the actual field outside of content creation and YouTubers, finding a MacBook equal to finding a unicorn. For example each Grand Prix weekend in Formula 1, not a single MacBook around in garages or pit walls, but there is plenty of Lenovo ThinkPads and HP ZBooks. Check this from two weeks ago, following the 2024 Mexican Grand Prix, literally only ThinkPad P-series everywhere around: What Happens On The Pit Wall At An F1 Race? | Behind The Charge
