Red pill me on these Chink Laptops
Thomas Cox
Thomas Evans
Proprietary UEFI
Botnet Intel CPUs
Not supported by Libreboot
Owen Price
literally 0 reasons to get them over a thinkpad
Adrian King
Why would you ask us to lie to you?
Isaiah Sanchez
thinkpad is gonna become a chink macbook clone next year
Wyatt Wilson
So, installing Linux is a no go?
>dafuq?
Nathaniel Harris
You can install GNU/Linux but the CPU contains backdoors like all new Intel CPUs, and the UEFI is proprietary (as it is in most laptops), and you can't install Libreboot (as on most laptops).
Nolan Young
no one talked about those fake thinkpads
meant the real thiccpads
Dominic Ross
Oh no I can't install tranny boot, whatever will I do now
Aiden Torres
Ahhhhhhhhh fuck that!
A backdoor?!
So Uncle Xi can spy on me while I 4chins?!
Joseph Rogers
>implying it already wasn't
Get a pre-lenovo thinkpad, if you want anything more you're probably retarded or underage
Logan Wilson
Yes, and the NSA and FSB too, because of the Intel backdoors
Jackson Fisher
OP probably wants something more than a Facebook machine.
Christian Ramirez
Ain't that some shit.
So what Laptops are safe to use then?
Zachary Evans
X200
Anthony Hall
then he can build a desktop
Nathaniel Barnes
ThinkPad T400/X200
If you can live with proprietary UEFI, you can remove some Intel backdoors on a much larger selection of laptops:

Nathaniel Green
The backdoors, is it legit or just Jow Forums being paranoid?
Grayson Davis
Adam Stewart
Fuck. That's messed up.
Intel faggotry at its best right here.
Mason Phillips
I unironically like the one on right. You are makung too much of a big deal out of fucking laptop.
Julian Reed
Well, you have to really if you want to protect your privacy.
Jaxon Ortiz
Supposedly the biggest issue is lack of warranty, the thing can die 4 months in and you'll be screwed with exactly 0 options to RMA if you're in the west afaik.
Hudson Jenkins
>the thing can die 4 months
>chink shit
It WILL die in 4 months.
Jonathan Jenkins

No warranty outside of China, if it breaks you're screwed
Wyatt Ortiz
The inside of that laptop is absolutely atrocious.
Carson Diaz
>inside
hahaha like that would do anything.
Angel Watson
Good value for the money
Relatively well designed compared to cheap shit here.
Small risk of dead laptop.
Model refresh unknown.
Brayden Lewis

Jonathan Brooks
Kek continue seething Tripcode!Q/7.
Nicholas Wood
Isn't Huawei better with customer service though? If you buy their stuff through Microsoft you're covered for at least a year.
Noah James
Chinese botnet ontop of the intel botnet under the windows botnet. At this point these laptops should be inexpensive, but you need an arm and a leg for the joy of being spied on.
Lucas Morales

what do you guys think about xiaomi mi gaming laptop? it looks better and have cheaper price than other gaymen laptop
>gaming
I know, but I really need strong laptop because I move a lot
Liam Barnes
Looks nice. Why the fuck can't laptop OEMs integrate the fingerprint reader into the power button though?
Nathaniel Wilson
It may not be as thin as the new macbook 15 inch retina, but I'll accept that only single flaw
Jack Richardson
>island keys
Landon Walker
So they finally finished the cloning process
Brody Smith
And the MBPs die all the time since they cared more about having an aesthetic layout instead of having enough space for the proper capacitors
Hunter Adams
They aren't really all that great of laptops, but they do not have high failure rates.
Chase Foster
It's a discarded prototype
It also only has 1 port
Matthew Garcia
please respond
Charles Davis
They do, their failure rates are way higher than any other laptop in the same price range
