This has been discussed before that the MBP's price/performance ratio really isn't bad at all.

I like it. Been using iPad and iPhone for very long time (parents money don't ask) but if it was my own money I wouldn't get it.

Gaming laptops are all those things as well

Because they look amazing, build quality is amazing, the OS is super streamlined and beautiful and lots of functionality, the screens are amazing, it has great p2p for an ultra book and it destroys all other ultrabooks in intensive tasks. And did I mention they look amazing?

they look amazing and some of the best looking laptops/ultrabooks

[Nashiwa]

I dislike how everything is locked up (it's almost impossible to repair or upgrade), it's also really expensive. But I have to admit the battery life is really impressive.

[manikyath]

i dislike how the moment one of them pops up someone feels the need to start an argument.

 

i have my reasons not to touch apple products, you have your reason to buy apple products, lets just leave it at that.

 

we dont see full-fledged rants between asus and asrock mobo's on the forum do we?

yah but if i want a laptop with the same preformance as the MBP i can get it for less, and i still dislike OSX and the bad upgradability

Same with every ultrabook. Except batteru

[DildorTheDecent]

Very well built it seems and are quite good looking as far as laptops go. OS X actually seems fantastic for productivity.

 

I certainly don't need a laptop, but i'd defo pick up a MacBook if i could. Would not buy a "gaymin" laptop. Just too trashy imo.

Name me an ultrabook with better upgradability. And if you are looking for that why arent you talking crap about the XPS and Zenbook series

i agree but then again 

for the pixel XL 128gb its £819

and the iphone 7plus 128gb is the same price

[Thony]

I like the design and the idea behind them.

I hate: Price, compatibility, ports count, adapters, iOS

Google is trying to compete with the iPhone. hence they abandoned the Nexus name

maybe for the same reason the person you quoted also doesnt buy non-mac ultrabooks

 

mind you that this isnt necessarily a "mac vs similar non-mac products" thread, but rather a "why do you or dont you buy apple products"

 

to which for me the simple answer would be "i'm not interested in the type of product they provide"

They arent that expensive. iOS is 10x better than Android for general usability, and those ports are 10x more useful than any other port.Adapters is true tho

Since Mountain Lion and iOS 7 their operating systems have gone downhill IMO.
