What's the closest hardware alternative to a MacBook Pro?

what makes the macbook pro special is its M series chips, which are these system on a chips. they have great total control of gpu and cpu and how they share memory. Currently there arent alot of options in the ARM realm in terms of performance, but in batterylife you can find it, What i have been us

So lost with the Ryzen processors!

The first thing is that the Framework (FW) 12 does not have Ryzen processors available. The FW13 and FW16 do. You said no on the FW16 and from what you're describing I think the FW13 fits your needs.However compared to the Asus Flow z13 if you wanted to get a Ryzen processor close to the same perfor

Is anyone else getting ridiculous battery life from their FW 13?

Ridiculously good, you mean? I had an Asus z13 before, so, yeah!

Any decent & recent 2-in-1 10-12" laptops?

You're literally asking high specs in a small package, the most powerful I know of is the ROG Flow Z13 with Ryzen HX395+(RTX 4060 levels of performance), which is like the Surface Pro a tablet with a keyboard. The smaller you go the harder it is to cool and power it. Keep in mind, more powerful chip

Framework Desktop (2025) Review: Powerful, but perhaps not for everyone

They did this only to facilitate AI development right? Basically selling the Strix Halo or Max 385 and Max+ 395 as direct to consumer as they can. It’s not like AMD really has a place you can buy that in an easy way so really this is the only option if you want as little stuff around it as possible.

Does iGPU Beat dGPU? Ryzen Max+ 395 vs RTX 4060 in 25 Games

While I do agree with him on some of his opinions regarding power limits, he seems to indicate that the power limits only get lower when you choose even cheaper laptops than the Legion he tested. Of course this isn't true, In the high-end market there are a lot of new form factor devices that are us

Should I get the ROG Flow Z13 (Ryzen AI Max 395+, 32GB) or stick to a normal gaming laptop?

I own an Z13. If you look at price to performance ratio you can get a gaming laptop with higher specs. The advantage of Z13 is the portability. It is super lightweight like a tablet. But you can't use it like a tablet, since the air intakes are below the device. But you can game from anywhere if you

WTF GPD are you insane ?!

Battery life? LOL. I have a ROG Flow Z13. Amazing device. But it needs a lot more watts to play lighter titles than my Steam Deck does.

AMD Strix Halo 128GB performance on deepseek r1 70B Q8

Battery life is meaningless for running a 70B model. You'll need to be plugged to do any meaningful work anyways. The Z13 is a high end device in Asus's lineup. My guess for a mini PC with a 395 + 128GB would be $1-1.3k. Can probably grab two and link them over USB4 (40gbps) and run exo to get simil
