Hmm, so I went and tried out the XPS 13 with 5th gen Intel procs and wasn't that impressed with the keyboard tbh... The keys felt kind of mushy and lacked travel much like the Macbook Airs and Pros I looked at and tried. Also the Macbook Pro looks really fat compared to the Air, but it has dat force touch trackpad which felt cool but the hard press seemed to trigger a little too early for my liking. Hell, out of everything I think I liked the Surface Book the most so far; the 3:2 aspect ratio seems nice and apparently it actually has a 12 hour battery with the two batteries put together. The keyboard was also really nice but I don't like the all silver look and it feels a bit top heavy. Hmmmmm decisions decisions...
Also got the Nexus 6P in yesterday. It's ok. The phone's a lot taller than my OPO which makes it hard for even my huge hands to reach the top of the screen. Ambient display doesn't work that well and while Doze is cool, it took a few hours to download all my apps because the stupid phone kept dozing off and it's making transferring my music to it a royal pain. We'll see how it works in real-world use once I stop by the AT&T store and grab a new SIM for it. Apparently there's so much rain today that the roadways are like rivers so I'll have to wait on that. :/
lol I bought the XPS because it resembles a Macbook.
I didn't like the short(er)-travel keys at first but after using it for a few months, my fingers kinda adjusted to use less force.
Not sure if I'm typing too hard but I'm liking the sound and rebound force from the keys.
The surface book looks quite interesting (physically). How does that attachment mechanism work?
I mean... there 's gotta be some kind of high-speed communication between the pieces....
I'll see if I can find a demo in local stores over here when I have time.
Oh yeah, speaking of tablet PCs, I saw a guy playing VN with a 15" device at school.... not sure what it was.
I wish I could walk around holding a 15" tablet and play games on the train or something.
