    And then they all go to a landfill near you. When was LG a name on the laptop market?

    Companies like this should not be allowed to churn crap like this

      I must assume you’re talking about LG and Apple laptops both.

        To be fair, Apple hardware typically lasts for a long time. My wife has a 5 year old m1 air and we have no plans to replace it anytime soon.

        We have been out the past few hours working and she went from like 50% to maybe 30-40% in that time.

        I am talking about all the crap that is being built for no reason at all other than a gimmick . Like these LG laptops or the million of devices that are underpowered , poorly built or offer no real benefit. It makes more sense to buy a slightly more expensive device to make it last longer than getting a cheap unusable device. And if you can’t afford a new one always have a look at the second hand market. There are high quality slightly older devices that are infinitely better than 90%of the new ones built solely to be thrown in the bin in the shortest amount of time.
