I am also interested in this, thanks

@ye:

The panther lake laptops that start at $1299 you wouldn't really want. Comes with a 60 Hz display. Just like the rtx 4060 laptops you can get for $700 you wouldn't want, due poor build quality.

The laptops that people want for panther lake start at $1599. And for the laptops with rtx 4060, they're a lot more than $700 too. Depends on your region, but where I'm at even used are like $1000+. New start at $1300 minimum, not even premium build quality ones, those are closer to $1699-$1899.

A big thing for me is the complete laptop overall laptop experience. People are purely looking at specs or price but if my budget is $1200 I'm willing to pay $400 more (so like $1600 total) just for something that the superior 1100+ nit screens, longer battery, super light weight and doesn't produce much heat. Just how people are spending $1350 on a Legion Go 2 (for the killer screen).

I think the days of $700 open box / refurbished laptops is over and long gone. That's almost like asking for a mid to high tier desktop GPU for $200 now because we used to. Those days are not coming back.

Go play outside. Cheaper and healthier.

Otherwise Samsung will sell exactly ZERO.

Often shops that do not know the price just put in a silly placeholder price. I know camera shops that will put a price 2-3x higher than the actual price before a lens or camera is released.

So these actually suck.

Who wants to stroke their earbuds to do simple functions like change the volume? Copy apple but really apple made a big mistake on that too.

The cheap earbuds from china are just so much better. Tap once on the left for lower volume, tap once on the right for louder. Double tap to change tracks. Easy peasy.

I have airpods pro 3 and they also actually suck. Same problem, but the cheap earbuds have better range and aren't harsh like Apple's are when a packet is dropped.

QuoteThe Galaxy Buds 4 miss out on silicone ear tips.

Some people (like me) have serious allergic reactions to silicone. It would be nice if there was a way to have a non-silicone option AND a silicone option for any earbud, but until then, I, for one, am glad they still make hard plastic model as the alternative is a chronic ear infection.
