Śmiały ruch Apple w segmencie budżetowym? Tani MacBook może zadebiutować już w tym tygodniu
Wiele wskazuje na to, że Apple zaprezentuje w tym tygodniu urządzenie, o którym plotkowano od lat.
Zamiast skupiać się wyłącznie na rekordach wydajności w drogich modelach Pro, firma z Cupertino prawdopodobnie spróbuje swoich sił w segmencie tanich komputerów. Według nieoficjalnych doniesień, nowy MacBook ma stanowić pomost dla użytkowników, którzy dotychczas wybierali maszyny z systemem Windows lub tanie Chromebooki.
O budżetowym laptopie z logo nadgryzionego jabłka mówi się w kuluarach od niemal roku. Mark Gurman z agencji Bloomberg donosi, że sprzęt może być już gotowy do rynkowego debiutu. Jeśli przecieki się potwierdzą, maszyna zaoferuje aluminiową obudowę dostępną w wielu żywych wariantach kolorystycznych, co stanowiłoby wyraźny ukłon w stronę sektora edukacyjnego i młodszych klientów.
Architektura mobilna w komputerze osobistym
Aby obniżyć koszty produkcji, inżynierowie musieli pójść na pewne kompromisy. Z raportów wynika, że komputer zostanie wyposażony w nieco mniejszy, 12,9-calowy ekran, który prawdopodobnie będzie pozbawiony technologii True Tone i zaoferuje niższą jasność maksymalną niż modele z serii Air.
Najciekawiej zapowiada się jednak kwestia podzespołów. Sercem urządzenia ma być układ A18 Pro – ten sam, który napędza flagowego iPhone’a 16 Pro. Choć hasło „procesor ze smartfona” może brzmieć zachowawczo, warto pamiętać o szerszym kontekście. Architektura mobilnych układów z serii A od lat dorównuje (a nierzadko wręcz przewyższa) wydajnością tradycyjne, laptopowe procesory x86. Wykorzystanie tego chipu w MacBooku to logiczny, strategiczny krok Apple w stronę unifikacji architektury i maksymalnego cięcia kosztów własnych. Z przecieków wynika, że procesorowi będzie towarzyszyć 8 GB pamięci RAM, a wbudowana przestrzeń na dane wyniesie 256 GB lub 512 GB.
Magnes na nowych klientów
Według źródeł Bloomberga, wewnątrz Apple panuje przekonanie, że nowy komputer zaoferuje rewelacyjny stosunek jakości do ceny. Firma ma nadzieję, że tak skalkulowany sprzęt przyciągnie osoby, które dotychczas korzystały z budżetowych maszyn konkurencji. Może to być również istotny argument dla posiadaczy iPhone’ów, którzy do tej pory omijali laptopy z systemem macOS ze względów czysto finansowych.
Największą niewiadomą i jednocześnie głównym atutem ma być ostateczna cena. Nieoficjalne źródła sugerują, że cennik może otwierać kwota około 599 dolarów. Jeśli ten pułap się potwierdzi, będzie to najtańszy przenośny Mac od lat. Przewidywane zainteresowanie jest rzekomo tak duże, że pracownicy salonów Apple Store zostali już uprzedzeni o możliwych nadgodzinach w dniach premiery.
Maraton ogłoszeń startuje lada moment
Ile z tych plotek okaże się prawdą? Przekonamy się w ciągu najbliższych dni. Apple zaplanowało nietypowy, kilkudniowy maraton ogłoszeń, który wystartuje w poniedziałek, 2 marca, a zakończy się specjalnym wydarzeniem z udziałem mediów w środę, 4 marca. Oprócz budżetowego komputera, analitycy spodziewają się również odświeżonych modeli MacBooków Air i Pro z układami M5, nowych iPadów oraz premiery iPhone’a 17e.

Vinkki: ChromeOS Flex muuttaa minkä tahansa vanhan Windows-tietokoneena Chromebookiksi
Ratkaisu voi olla täydellinen heille, keitä pelottaa Windows 10:n tukiajan päättyminen ja Linuxiin siirtyminen kuulostaa pelottavalta vaihtoehdolta.
ChromeOS Flex sopisi monen iäkkäämmän sukulaisen tietokoneen elinajan jatkajaksi varsin mainiosti.

Android desktop mode beta, or Chromebook in your pocket
I enrolled on the Android Beta and am typing this on my phone plugged into a USB-C dongle that provides HDMI and USB.The idea is it's supposed to turn your phone into a portable "real" computer.
I think it needs some work, it's a bit unstable. The idea is there, and it works very similarly to a Chrom

#Accessibility hive mind, I have some questions about #ChromeVox as well as #Chromebook accessibility & #usability in general. I'm working with a #PixelBook that has never been used. ChromeVox is telling me to use commands involving the search key as a modifier, but these seem not to work as any use of the search key invokes #Google #Gemini. What's going on here? Additionally, how are #blind people using #Chromebooks? In what tasks do they excel. In what tasks do they fall short? Any input and/or information would be greatly appreciated.

Lilbits: Snapdragon X Chromebooks, Pixel 7a battery swelling, and a Liberux NEXX Linux phone progress update
Earlier this year the folks at Liberux announced plans to build a Linux smartphone that combines the kind of features you’d expect from a modern phone with the hardware you’d expect from a pretty good single-board computer. The Liberux NEXX is expected to have a RK3588s Processor, a 6.34 inch, 2400 x 1080 pixel OLED display, 32GB of RAM, and 256GB of storage, along with dual USB 3.1 Type-C […]

the linux version of chrome is essentialy private space for chromeOS, because its essentially a version of the chrome browser that's *not* tied to the operating system itself.
this was not the case with lacros, which, while allowing multiple chrome profiles, was still tied to the os.
and that is why, i think, google should legitimately make and maybe market something more like *that* as a "thing".
it's better than lacros.

draft - People - chromeos requires 8gb ram. I don't care if there's a bunch of 4gb ram devices. If you please vote a little bit with your wallet and get at least 8gb ram, and at least a core i3 / ryzen3, it's gonna be better.
Vote with your wallet. stop buying 4gb ram Chromebooks.
Chromebooks with 8gb ram Intel core i3 / amd ryzen3 or higher please. ..
Essentially, Chromebook plus is kinda required to have a good time on chromeos.
Let's rid the market of 4gb ram chromeos devices by just ignoring them completely. They're not worth it unless you get them for $40 bucks.
8gb ram core i3 Chromebook plus is more worth $250 for a good sale of $350 MSRP Chromebook plus

the linux version of chrome should be available on the google play store for chromebook.
to be used alongside / separate from the built in version of chrome
this would be a hearty substitute for lacros
it'd be better than lacros
lacros allowed multiple browser profiles
but the profiles were integrated into the operating system
the linux version of chrome on chromeos is not integrated into the OS which is a good thing.

dear google please just keep the lacros flag or at least immediately replace it with a "enable chrome profiles" flag.
chrome profiles are too important to get rid of.

with lacros going away, will we still be able to have chome profiles?
i ask because according to
"With this change, there will be no impact to Chromebooks users."
But this would be a big impact for users who have grown accustomed to being able to use chrome profiles. so "no impact" is a lie. will chrome profiles be added in chromeOS128 or what...

draft - on chromeos in the play store, the opera browser is a full desktop style browser when you download it from chromeos.
firefox and other browsers should do the same.
give us a full desktop level browser, or at least the option to do so when downloading from a chromebook via the play store

is anyone really frustrated about the news that google is removing lacros from chromeOS?
-
draft - lacros makes chromebook more like a windows type computer (in a good way) by allowing browser profiles inside one user space. multiple users is important too, but the ability to have browser profiles in one user space is also very important. why would google allow browser profiles on a competing operating system by microsoft and not allow it on their own operating system?
#lacros
#chromeos
#chromebook
#windowssomething here feels like it's microsoft telling google what they can and can't do. it feels like a microsoft thing here.
something like microsoft saying to google "you can't do lacros because we don't want chromebooks eating into windows laptop sales and lacros is too "good" for chromebook. or something like that.
this is all just rough draft and speculation and fiction. but sometimes i gotta vent about these things. i'm trying to understand what's going on.
someone also mentioned with the android stuff, can we finally more easily install apks?
-
Will we still be able to use browser profiles inside of a user space on chromeOS? that felt like the main "feature" of lacros, in addition to all the backend stuff.
-
chromebook lacros removal comment that I agree with:
"This is terrible. The LaCros setting via Chrome flags allows the Chromebook version of Chrome to function like the regular desktop browser like those on Mac and Windows. Why kill this? In fact ChromeOS and Chromebooks need to become more like Windows or Mac to retain power users. I'm only using a Chromebook for a combination of curiosity about the Google OS features, and aspects like using Linux and other more advanced desktop settings. Removing advanced features like this will push me and other users away. "

My new Framework Chromebook arrived today. It was already stupid powerful compared to every other one I've ever used, but I upgraded the RAM for good measure.
I'm gonna write so many emails on this thing...
