Linus tests the M5 MacBook Pro in low-power mode in the latest ShortCircuit video

I did it for you. I talked in person with enterprise sales reps from HP, Dell, Lenovo, MSI, and Asus who brought samples looking for a thin and light without a ton of deck flex and a decent screen. The closest I could get to the MacBook was the XPS 13 but it was more expensive or the Razer Blade Ste

Any downsides to buying a Windows‑only Dell XPS and installing Ubuntu myself instead of getting the Ubuntu‑pre‑installed model

Years ago the XPS 13 developer edition had the fingerprint reader replaced with a simple power button as the fprint reader lacked firmware support on Linux. But since 2020 even that difference is gone. Should be the same hardware AFAIK. Certainly makes sense for Dell to use the same hardware and jus

Ubuntu 26.04 - ARM computers

I have a Dell XPS 13 9345 (Snapdragon X Elite) running 26.04 on kernel 7.0.0-13. Broadly it works well. I don't have sound though and power management is still not as good as it struggles to go into hibernation, so if its not plugged in, it will drain to 0 overnight. Camera, wifi, bluetooth, plugin

We need to recognize that unfortunately pricing for any new laptop is going to be high because of the RAM and storage shortage

The X Elite I remember being specifically $100 cheaper in the XPS 13 vs the Intel model. That was the closest comparison laptop then, but even outside of the XPS it was generally cheaper than Intel and AMD I think, just not by a lot. But I did think the X2 would be cheaper and it seems to be the cas

Препоръки за лаптоп

Често ми се задава тоя въпрос и честно казано, втора ръка можеш да вземеш страхотни неща. Далеч по-добри от това в големите магазини. Ето това е един доста добър продавач, от който съм купувал лаптопи: https://DragTimes.olx.bg Внася лотове корпоративни машини и ги продава по отделно. Последно взимах

Is this a good deal?

honestly if you like the form factor that's huge - you're the one carrying it every day. the xps 13 has better build quality and keyboard than the zenbook anyway. 16gb ram is fine for normal use and $699 for open box is decent. i've seen people pay more for worse specs just because of the xps name.

Is Framework 13 as good as I heard?

I'm coming up on 2 years on my 13th gen intel framework. It has been totally fine and has taken a spill or two thanks to my toddler. There are a few dents and dings because of that, and if they become a problem, I'll replace those parts. I went with an intel instead of amd because my previous laptop
