By simple I mean everything not graphic intensive + Final Cut. Try After Effects, it's like going to your Macbook's funeral

looks are of course subjective, but no one will ever call an XPS crappy looking

as for Windows - there are A LOT of things I prefer about it, just as there are things I prefer about Mac OS. Right now they are approximately on the same level.
Again the video stuff. After Effects works fine, no it will not send my MacBook to its funeral, and not everyone works in After Effects and not everyone is into video production. What I do care are graphical apps, 2D, 3D - they all work great, in a better enviroment on a more reliable computer. So, just stop with that silly "it's for writing emails" rhetoric, it's transparently wrong.
Yes, there are
1) people who surf and type emails who don't need proper I/O and graphic cards
2) people who do photo/video who NEED the SD slot as there is no replacement for it, generally use the old USB devices and need proper graphics and laptops that allow 32 gigs of RAM.
3) People who use graphic design software and love the Mac ecosystem
4) People who use illustration software and want to use Astropad with that software
5) People who start their drawings on iPad Pro and Procreate and want to paste directly into Photoshop to continue work
6) While we're at it - people who use Photoshop and love macOS
7) People who want a fast, reliable Zbrush and 3D Coat computer
8) People who want a fast, reliable Modo, Blender and Maya computer
Need I go on? Do you still claim these are good for just writing emails and surfing? And that everyone needs Adobe Premiere and After Effects? These do work, by the way, quite nicely, just not as fast as an Nvidia equipped notebook.

As you live/come from Serbia, I would expect that you understand that paying 3000 € is quite different with "Western" and "Eastern" salaries. :/
Sure it is. This computer is ridiculously expensive for 99% people here. It's expensive for me too. However, I do make my living working on it and it's one of the several most important tools for me. This is one of the few things where I don't compromise - because after my family, my work is the most important thing to me. I live in relatively modest conditions otherwise, and when I do buy something expensive - it's for work.
And it's possible I made a wrong choice - I mean, it's all relative. But all I'm saying is - I wasn't looking for the best deal, I was looking for the computer that would allow me to do my work the best way possible.
But yeah, it's &^*&%*% expensive, it is. That's why I 100% understand anyone who doesn't want to spend that much money on it. Just, I don't like these "you could've bought a car for it" arguments - because not everyone wants 2 laptops, or a laptop and a used car, or a laptop and a holiday - etc.
