No surprises here. Just like the lockdown on iPhone screen and part replacements, Macbooks suffer from the same Apple’s anti-repair and anti-consumer bullshit. Battery glued, ssd soldered in and can’t even swap parts with other official parts. 6000$ laptop and you don’t even own it.
Yeah, I’m really trying to find a tablet that is about 8 inches and has extremely smooth usage of web browsing and YouTube, that isn’t an iPad mini (or Samsung, just don’t like their UI), and it seems like nothing comes close anywhere in the industry, maybe with the possible exception of the Google Pixel Tablet. It feels like the entire industry gave up trying to innovate tablets because iPads were that good.
