I have a 2015 MacBook Air that I've installed Win11 on and I use it as my 'service laptop', the one I use to help fix friends/family computers when something goes wrong. A lot of people are surprised to see Windows on a MacBook that's for sure. I have a 2020 13" MacBook Pro which I love too. So yes I play both sides. Which computer do I use the most? My 11" iPad Pro lol.

This is precisely what I hate: the macOS ecosystem, I do not feel free there. Unlike their hardware, which is superb. That's why I dream about a good implementation of Linux on the hardware based on their chips. I don't consider Windows a game changer, but it allows doing more under this OS than you can in macOS. The Asus Zenbook S 13 OLED is good, the only criticism I have is its good OLED but still non-mate display and not so powerful speakers.

Well to further compare, a docking station for mac costs just about 10 times more than a windows one given the same port selection or if you take the same amount of money you can get 3 ports on a mac for 100$ or you can get a 10 port docking station otherwise. On top of that, macs have the butterfly switch so in trade you can a slightly better trackpad in return for a keyboard thats probably the worst on the market compared to anything else even entry level laptops or cheap tablet keyboards. Also you need to keep in mind what do you use it for. If you use it as a workplace laptop and your entire company is using windows(because lets face it on a company wide scale microsoft atleast offers packages while apple doesnt) than any macbook you would potentially use will screw you at work due to compatibility issues. Also in the US/UK the price gap is smaller than in other places for example in hungary the price gap beetwen the 2 is 500$ while comparing the 8gb/512gb storage version macbook against the 16gb/1tb storage version s13 but if i want to compare the same specs the price gap goes up to 1000$ with less in the package. So for the price of a macbook air you can buy the s13 oled and buy the samsung tab s9.
@samernammari8785

We've just bought a 14" Zenbook and we love it!! I use a 16" M1 MBP but I'm very inpressed with Asus. HOWEVER, I saw a RU-vid video and the reviewer had issues after 12 months and Asus did nothing to help. That worries me!!

@edcipriani8873 10 месяцев назад
I bought a 15.5 Zenbook flip back in late 2020, so far, no issues, it still works great. I realize Asus customer support is lacking, that's why I also bought an extended warranty through Best Buy. The sad thing is that HP's customer support is total crap, along with Dell, so I won't buy either of those brands. I might switch over to Lenovo or Samsung next time for a windows laptop. I just don't wan to buy another Mac again.

No numbers. No benchmarks apart from "trust me bro". Vague, you need to charge it more often than an Air. No man. Just no. I may or may not disagree with the final conclusion, but for me this was not a good comparison.

All of them apart from iMovie and Final Cut Pro. Then add some more, for example Vegas. It's all down to what you feel more comfortable using and what can do what you want as you want it for the least amount of effort. It's all down to the user.

If the Asus ran Mac OS then it might be a viable contender.....I simply can't abide working for any prolonged period on a Windows Machine. The Macbook isn't the "hardware"....it's the OS and the ecosystem that makes it appealing. Reviewers get so hung up on the hardware. That is understandable. Hardware changes at an exponential rate compared to the more gradual, almost glacial changes in Operating Systems. Companies need new things to sell.
