My Dream Laptop - Please Build It!
I'm extremely disappointed in Apple's latest line of garbage laptops. Apple has really "fallen behind" and is unable to make a decent laptop anymore. I've always bought Apple products (Apple Mac Pro 3,1 and 4,1 and 5,1) as well as Apple MacBook Pro (17") laptops (in the 2008-2013 era), but I'm extremely disappointed that Apple no longer makes "high end" computer gear. Instead Apple makes "over-priced garbage". Apple is always 3-7 years BEHIND competitors (like Lenovo, Razer, or MSI).
I really would like to buy a "high-end" Apple MacBook Pro (2-in-1) laptop, but unfortunately Apple doesn't make "high end" laptops (or "high end" desktops) anymore.
My dream laptop is a 2-in-1 (4K IPS touchscreen) tablet/laptop (similar to a Lenovo Yoga 720), that is a "360" laptop (can be used as both a 4K IPS touchscreen laptop/tablet) similar to the Lenovo Yoga 720, and is truly a very ultra-thin Platinum Silver (Aluminum) 15.6" 4K IPS touchscreen display with Active Pen 2 (similar to a Lenovo Yoga 720), that is thin and ultra-lightweight.
Also please add an Intel i7-7700HQ processor, NVIDIA GTX 1060 or GTX 1070 or GTX 1080 discrete graphics, and 2TB NVMe PCIe SSD (dual 1TB PCIe SSD in RAID 0?), and at least 64GB of RAM. Thunderbolt 3/USB-C port, and 2 extra USB 3.1 ports. Also add in a "chroma" keys backlit keyboard (customized backlit RGB keys, like the Razer Blade Stealth, or MSI Stealth 4K Pro) and that would be the ultimate DREAM computer!
I could finally run Apple MacOs, and also run VMware Fusion (while running Windows 10 Pro, and Ubuntu Linux in a triple-boot configuration, or run all three at the same time using VMware Fusion) and have enough RAM to run MacOS and Windows 10 and Ubuntu Linux (at the same time) while writing code or developing VR games.
Having the NVIDIA GTX 1060 or GTX 1070 (or even GTX 1080) discrete graphics in the latest MacBook Pro (with a RGB Chroma backlit keyboard) similar to a Razer Blade Stealth, or MSI Stealth 4K Pro laptop.
I would finally have an "Apple Gaming Computer" that I could use for VR development, VR Gaming, as well as a 4K or 5K touchscreen tablet (for drawing, and 4K/5K IPS touchscreen). With 64GB of RAM, and 2TB NVMe PCIe SSD I would have plenty of extremely fast storage space.
It would truly be an MSI Stealth 4K Pro killer! (especially having the 15.6" 4K IPS touchscreen with Active Pen 2) and Apple Touchbar.
Make it available in a 15.6" 4K IPS Touchscreen MacBook Pro, and also a 17" 4K IPS Touchscreen MacBook Pro with 64GB of RAM, and 2TB NVMe PCIe SSD (using two Samsung 1TB NVMe PCIe SSD in RAID 0).
I could finally have a thin, ultra-lightweight mobile MacBook Pro that is a "desktop replacement", that I could carry with me, have plenty of RAM (for running VMs, running Windows 10 Pro, running Ubuntu Linux, and running MacOS) all at the same time, and can finally replace my old Mac Pro with a shiny new MacBook Pro.
I need at LEAST 64GB of RAM, and an an Intel i7-7700HQ processor, NVIDIA GTX 1060 or GTX 1070 discrete graphics, and 2TB NVMe PCIe SSD (dual 1TB PCIe SSD in RAID 0?), and at least 64GB of RAM. Thunderbolt 3/USB-C port, and 2 extra USB 3.1 ports. Make sure that the MacBook Pro has a "flexible" 360 hinge, so that I can flip the screen all the way back (like the Lenovo Yoga 720) and use it as both a 4K IPS Touchscreen Laptop, and also a 4K IPS Touchscreen Tablet, and also use it in "tent" mode (for watching 4K movies). [Similar to the Lenovo Yoga 720]
Please make sure the 4K (or 5K) Touchscreen Display is 100% Truecolor Adobe RGB accurate/colorspace coverage, with NVIDIA GTX 1060, GTX 1070, or GTX 1080 graphics. Supports HDR1000 / Dolby Vision display, with 12-bit color depth, (10,000 nits peak brightness?) and capable of displaying everything in the Rec.2020 color space.
Also add in a "chroma" keys backlit keyboard (customized backlit RGB keys, like the Razer Blade Stealth, or MSI Stealth 4K Pro) and add in Apple Touch Bar, that would be the ultimate DREAM computer!
Please add "two buttons" on the touchpad (similar to the Lenovo Yoga 720) with a slight line between the two touchpad buttons, identical to the touchpad on the Lenovo Yoga 720, so that there are still two buttons for mouse-clicking in "Windows 10" (while running Windows 10 Pro) on the Apple MacBook Pro.
Also please add "Chroma" keys (RGB backlit keys) that can be customized, change colors (to any of 16.7 million colors) similar to the Razer Stealth or MSI 4K Stealth Pro (with "Steel" series RGB chroma keys), and also add the "Apple Touch Bar" across the top of the keyboard (replacing the Function keys with the "Apple Touch Bar").
Please make a 15.6" 4K or 5K touchscreen version (MacBook Pro 15) and a 17" 5K touchscreen version (MacBook Pro 17) that is "VR-ready" (with NVIDIA GTX 1070 or GTX 1080 discrete graphics).
I would really love for Apple to "step up" it's game, and finally start producing high-end laptops that can be used for high-end VR-Game development, VR-Gaming, ultra high-end 4K and 5K VR-Gaming/3D VFX/movies/VR development, and support Oculus Rift and HTC Vive VR headsets and true 4K/5K VR gaming (at 120+fps or 240+fps).
