You can't have it both ways Ric, saying that you wont notice it because the difference is insignificant contradicts your saying that you will notice it because the front is thicker.
I think perhaps the point was missed. They are not just “reviews.” They are sponsored reviews in that if these “reviewers” say overly negative things about the product they will never be asked to “review” again.
MKBHD has said negative things a bunch of times about new Apple releases and yet he continues to do reviews. How do you explain that one?
Which is largely irrelevant since the people who buy computers to review just return them before 15 days has passed. All of them are getting free computers in one way or another.
That's an Apple problem, not a reviewer problem, and still I didn't miss any point. They are reviewing product from a company that generally makes really high quality product with few misses. As the other dude just pointed out to you, I've seen all of them hit on negative points through different reviews, and yet they're still reviewing.
MR land is definitely not a good place for a newbie to try and find balance after a release, unless one is a good swimmer above the frey. I agree with you. This place is usually tipped to the negative about the most mundane of points. Take this thread for instance. Instead of talking performance and real life application, people have spent needless hours talking about Justine.
Well this thread has her name in the title, so it isn't much of a surprise that the majority of the posts in it are about her.
Yea, I got that but, its been more personal about her than anything else, in my opinion. That was my point.
True, though don't forget we had that 1 guy randomly plugging his Vietnam videos also.
It is so obvious, to me anyway, that the notch is paving the way for FaceID.
I mean, she's attractive. If she was homely this wouldn't even be a thing.
The Face ID components are twice as thick as the lid; that's not happening without some serious miniaturization.
I agree. But I think FaceID will need a notch. Apple might as well get us used to the notch right from the jump with the re-design.
What's funny is that now that I'm used to the new menubar height, the old-style menubar on my 2014 MBP looks cramped to me. I agree that Apple will get Face ID on the MBPs at some point, but even the current, physical webcam array required it.
Just like all the talking points people list as reason to choose the 14" Pro.
not sure how being on MR would benefit his show imo
You're right--that's a large unit (what she said).
Very easily. There are different levels/thresholds of criticism that can be levied at Apple products. MKBHD never crosses the line.
I believe you missed what I said about the difference being insignificant, right? It would be like BMW boasting their new car was 1 WHOLE POUND LIGHTER. (But had a much chunkier front end so looked a lot bigger)
Yes, you are 100% correct. One pound is insignificant on something which weighs as much as a car.
