15 Laptops BETTER Than the MacBook

[@joecaroselli9945]

No offerings from Gateway? that’s really where the computing power to surpass a MacBook lies, a gateway laptop running Windows 2000. Doesn’t run off of battery power, it has to be plugged into the wall.

[@Lying29]

The secrets to beat MacBook is to meet one of the following: 1. Try to be as close to a MacBook as possible; 2. Ready for gaming; 3. Weird form factor.

[@cardsfanbj]

LOL Kenzie's a savage. Gives Matt a couple good ones to inflate his ego before giving him trash for the rest of the video

[@christophermorin9036]

Austin: "This didn't even run FLASH!" Matt: "And NEITHER do Macbooks NOW!" Austin: ".....................................F*** you Matt...." Way to go Matt! Tell it like it IS! Also I really wanted one of those duel screen thinkpads. Seriously. GOD I want one.

[@mammoth-puppy3246]

The forklift to carry around a laptop argument is real. I had an Alienware m18 when I was in college and this thing was so big and heavy it came with a backpack twice as wide as I am. I looked like a tech turtle

[@jayster3.0]

Mackbooks we’re good in the 2000s-2013 then, Yosemite came and brought the new design which I hated. Big Sur came in 2020 and did boost it from mediocre to okay. Early MacBooks are the best though, not as good as Windows XP, Vista, and 7.

[@UberMan5000]

0:55 I actually had this laptop (or at least, the almost identitcal non-Pro variant). I contributed to its IndieGogo campaign in 2019, because it's not like I could afford anything better on a library clerk salary. Though the whole time I had it, I saved up to buy a MacBook Air the following year, especially when this began to literally disintegrate. I ended up giving it to my parents, because heavens knows I couldn't sell it in good conscience.

[@CC_21_savige]

3:23 and 5:17 yes, everything is coming up matt

[@BeardeDeath]

I loved my netbook when i was in the military. it wasn't a gamer or anything but for a laptop that fit in my pocket i loved it

[@whitestar618]

netbooks were awesome if your job had you troubleshooting radio antennas on top of very tall buildings and grain elevators (think internet via grain towers in rural areas).. because if it was dropped or knocked off the tower the loss of 200 vs 1200 dollars+ was doable back in 2008. Friend of mine flashed the os installed some tools and a memory card and used one till the mobo failed. he still sings that machines praises because it was cheap, light and fit into a small backpack with his other physical tools.

Shoutout to the editor using the Obelix pro font, a great and versatile font which I personally use and love :)

[@John_1920]

I again find myself wishing for more videos in the "This Is" series of videos, where they introduced a certain piece of technology then talked and explained about it for a few minutes that the video was short - usually between 4 to 8 minutes long per video.

[@robbiemer8178]

I actually bought a Chuwi tablet. It has a decent screen and was less expensive than similar 10 inch tablets at the time. For what I wanted to use it for, it was fine. No productivity, I just wanted to be able to watch movies/tv shows and to use it as an e-reader. The problem with it was the battery and/or the charging port connection. It took an astonishingly long time to charge and then had terrible battery life. And could not run while plugged in. Returning it would have cost more to ship that it cost me to replace it with the Fire tablet I got for the same use. If it had not had the battery/power issues, I'd have been quite pleased with it.

[@frozedokkanbattle]

Love this channel guys keep up the great content, Austin stop smelling things lol

[@austinevans]

no

[@TechDove]

I'm a big fan of the LG gram, I've never used one but they're such an enticing Ultrabook

[@marcin_karwinski]

Well Lenovo also had the dual screen option, with main regular and the other eInk typically delegated to virtual keyboard duties... Now that was a good multiscreen laptop... The X1 Fold on the other hand was still offered by default with a BT membrane-keyboard that covered one half of the screen/one folded side, and I don't remeber it having some virtual keyboard solution in the same way that dual-screen eInk model before it had. After all, on the eInk variant you could in theory programmatically devise a different keyset ot different keyboard locale on the fly, eg. to switch to some other language, or even remove non-usable "keys" to better optimise space for specific app purposes (aka possibility of multiple macro keys).

[@aes1373]

I hope the razerbook would come out with a 14 inch version. I feel 13 inches I'd becoming a bit too small

[@itsdeonlol]

The Surface Laptop Go was so underrated.

[@lukeperryglover]

The Linus comments when he argued for Framework lol That being said ive considered getting a framework laptop. a little pricey but not horrible.

[@tbag6600]

My 3rd grade teacher had one of those ThinkPad 701c's. I remember it sitting on her desk.

[@netrodex]

Razer was my first gaming laptop, and my last... I had a bad experience with it. maybe they improved, I don't know, but I already don't care. tho I still have them all, I just had to switch the battery, but Asus rog g15... is been my best laptop so far!. I still have a macbook pro from 2015 for light use sometimes.

[@s17benjamin]

I would actually argue that the HP Envy 14/15 is much better than the Dell XPS line, much cheaper, less QA issues, has a vapour chamber, and just works.

[@dpham8907]

A whole "This Is" video where Austin didn't mention feet....what a day!

[@Photosbyme]

I had that Toshiba. I miss it. And a laptop that turns into a tablet. With fingerprint reader.

[@wuiss__._]

"Laptops better than thd macbook" *starts listing every computer existing on earth*

[@AItzari]

Been watching you guys since 2017 on the other channel

[@SubterraneanChick]

I remember owning a white Eee PC by Asus in white. It was about 7 inches I think. It's somewhere deep in my closet on a shelf running some obscure, dark distro of Linux. Maybe Slax with BlackBox WM I think or something that no longer exists.

[@willphoenix2621]

Seriously though joke aside , I don't think there is as good as of a package MacBook Air is in the market right now.

[@killerii5746]

I had the alienware 18x with 2 6970 in crossfire for years. Unfortunately It died but It is still my favourite computer I've ever had.

[@nikolai1566]

Im just here waiting for Matts eyelid to get healed

[@windlemarkgandionco610]

Matt is getting louder and louder everyday.

[@darkgatheringwfb5759]

Hope you include offerings from Acer in your next videos in this series ... particularly the Acer Aspire, bang for your $$$ but some of the things they do to make it cheap as possible

[@oistyer]

Next time they really need to Rock, Paper, Scissors it to see who gets each one. Make it more of a gamble

[@P1nch3Alex]

9:45 SO NINTENDO DS STANDS FOR DUAL SCREEN!? WTF!¡???

[@josemanuellopez_]

New content ideas for Mistery tech? you could buy one of the folding laptops a make a review of it? I mean, it is very mistery 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@tomfrailey93]

9:32, when did Negan start working for Austin and Matt? 😆

[@AronFromThisIs]

:0

[@zayan1442]

Video idea: mystery box pc build but some parts are broken so you have to take lucky guess to get good working parts. i would love to see this.

[@calebmurphyy]

I love this series! Thanks for continuing with it :)

[@Thehost12]

It would be dope if you guys buy some of those products

[@jefftkachuk8613]

if half of these were available out side the USA, they would have sold better. I would have loved to get a Fold but it was never sold.

[@Mireaze]

The fold was available outside the US. Atleast it was in the uk

[@JayTheReaper]

Kenzie got me dying omg. This was too fricking good

[@c1ph9r]

This series of This Is videos is a proof to Austin's Future sponsors that he and his team can advertise a trash product to make it looks cool

[@SwissCoffeeJay]

Welcome to This Is where all the laptops are dual screen and the points don't matter!

[@ekim4926]

The m3 is a brilliant processor for a laptop, just like it is a brilliant badge for a car

[@DynoMore]

Matt's Icarus moment was amazing.

[@Generalsnowbat]

Love to both individuals, but is there some beef between Austin and LTT? I watch both and enjoy each differently but cant help but notice occasional jabs.

[@Strawbsmedia]

I think it’s all just friendly banter

[@pmcmalec]

I recently bought the XPS 15 and I am very happy after replacing it with the X230 :)

[@DRHAX-up4ih]

Bruh why would you downgrade from your thiccpad?

[@匚-k3i]

8:40 for me is the best one ☝️.

[@ddtalk]

Hey! When I went to Grad School I bought a state of the art Radio shack/Tandy 1400FD it had 768mb of RAM, two 1.44mb Floppy disks and a LCD grey with Blue lettering Laptop Computer. It didn't have a hard drive and.It weighed 27 pounds! I took it to classes and got hell because it was to loud! I used WordStar and later Word Perfect!! Of course it was 1990..And...It was better than a Mac... because it didn't exist yet? 😮😮😳😳

[@JPinMotion]

R.I.P headphone users with Matt's intros.

[@aust100]

OMG 5:17 best part of video hahahaha

[@bharat5194]

Two Words - Microsoft Surface Only Surface has the build quality and hardware finesse to be neck to neck (and even surpass) Apple's design. Windows 11 closing the gap is a nice move too. The only thing holding back is the power-performance ratio from the x86 architecture. Can't compete with ARM based Macs as of yet.

[@s26me]

Personal experience: Dell XPS is an expensive overheating piece of crap.

[@ChoiJessica]

what is the alternative then?

[@GhostGamer799]

Mac os for people for company and closed source and so bad with gaming Linux some everyone can use began to be playable thank to steam deck and proton

[@arongoodall4937]

Review the PlaySkool Speak-N-Spell, cowards. Way better than the MacBook.

[@MemoriesDestroyUs]

Idk my mid 2012 MacBook Pro is still my daily. My windows laptop before it struggled to last 2 years. I did the ole ssd and ram upgrade because it was the last MacBook that let you 😂

[@CapperMcGee21]

love my xps

[@AaronShenghao]

I was one of the victim got scammed by the Dragonfly Indiegogo campaign... Never got my money back... The closet thing to the features promised by that was the Microsoft Lumia 950XL (Windows 10 continuum)

[@BernicePanders]

When half the 💩💩💩 on this list are better than my main system, a 2015 HP Pavilion laptop I got used on ebay... 😣🤦‍♀️

[@TallAndThin123]

i have an acer swift 3 , YOU FORGOT ACER SWIFT 3

[@aayaan1935]

Lol, Linus should check this out 😂

[@netrodex]

Xentex.... what in the f lollllll XD

[@mathieul4303]

Of Microsoft had something like the M1

[@willphoenix2621]

Out of the context but, does anyone know anything about Kenzie's Socials

[@assemmohamed9035]

I love you guys so much

[@mrcrazyasian]

tf the core m3-8100y ia trash, its in my computer (asus c344 flip chromebook)

[@oldtechnobodycaresabout]

Nah, any Toshiba portege after the r700 is better than any of these

[@hondaland_]

Just get a MacBook and put Windows on it and 🤫

[@viswa2006]

i cannot find one austin found 15

[@joshjacobson9846]

None of these are better than my M1 Pro 14”

[@RithikaV]

an m1 macbook air is still better for most people considering its cheaper than some on the list

[@EddieArafa]

These two are fucking legends LMAO!!

[@Grady_Oconnell]

watching this on my top spec 16' M1 max "interesting"

[@neon-original]

The only thing I like about Mac is the OS. Everyone can agree

[@s4meerbankupalli164]

Kenzie was having a field day 🤣🤣

[@awesomeiphone597]

In what universe is a netbook better than a MacBook?

Very weak and random subject, really sorry to say that. Maybe I’m wrong but i really wish you the best guys.

[@onyxknight320]

*sees title* Answer: All laptops other laptops! (That aren't chrome books)

[@Craider79]

Why are they all better than the Mac? Because they are not hampered and limited by Apples shitty IOS. EOD!

[@KitBaty]

I love Matt, but I find it hard to breathe listening to him talk sometimes.

[@bRicKhOoousE]

Any laptop is better

[@Mireaze]

Any laptop is better than a macbook, like seriously, any laptop. And I'm still pissed at Intel and Microsoft for hamstringing the X1 fold.

[@mouliknanda]

nah man no laptop beats the M1 for the price power and size

[@Mireaze]

@@mouliknanda what point is power Vs price when you cant run anything on the OS

[@mouliknanda]

@@Mireaze idk man you can basically run anything you need on the os as long as you're not a gamer+ you can run windows on a VM

[@hoxton3046]

Sweet!

[@keithkamps77]

HaHa

[@HCoRE8]

MacBooks are still better

I am a fool for thinking I'll get actual laptop buying advice from this channel. Disliked and unsubscribed.
