You don't want a 5" thick 50lbs laptop, you want something with Apple Silicon MacBook Pro hardware but more than 3 Thunderbolt ports for connectivity and not from Apple.

The thing lasts forever on battery, outperforms pretty much every (even wall-powered) x86 laptop chip, and has a ridiculously bright screen for a laptop. It's missing the ports and upgradeability (and easy Linux but that's another thing).

Yeah literally the only thing I wish my MBA has is more USB-C ports and on the right side. And who the hell needs a fucking cd drive in a laptop?
