I am bit disappointed. Dell has similar sized laptop, with bigger display, smaller bezel and higher resolution. http://www.dell.com/us/p/xps-13-9343-laptop/pd
The Dell weighs 2.6 pounds compared to 2.03 pounds for the Apple machine, uses a Core i5 rather than a Core M, no USB-C, etc. Does the Dell have a camera? I don't see it mentioned on that page, so maybe not.

Same here. I always considered MagSafe as one of the coolest things about the MacBooks. Sad to see it go.
Number of times I tripped over the cord and the Magsafe connector saved my laptop: countless.

Apple's role here is often to be more opinionated, or braver, than others. They were the first to adopt USB, first to stop shipping floppy drives, first to ditch optical drives, first to make high-DPI ('retina') displays a standard feature... they are willing to be the one who goes out there and says 'we all know this is where things are going - so let's quit pussy-footing around and just do it'. This new MacBook ann…
first to adopt USB Do you mean they were the first to bring out a desktop/laptop with usb?
Noticed the changed the headline? The Air still exists and is NOT replaced by this. I believe it's staying because it's non-retina, but I may be wrong. Either way, they seem to have made a call a bit too early when posting this.
It seems they've reintroduced the MacBook (no suffix) branding. So there's now three lines: MacBook Air, MacBook, and MacBook Pro. Interesting the MacBook is lighter than the MacBook Air.
USB-C as the "one connector to rule them all" is the big news. That's the end of MagSafe and the exploding era of USB-C docking stations that work for multiple devices. I think we'll start to see an era of expandable computing coming up soon: USB-C is a perfect connector to push your data and state into a larger desktop experience. Why not carry around your laptop in tablet form when you are mobile? [1] [1] https://g…
Seems like there are some new $79 adapters to split out the USB-C port into power, usb and av[1]/vga[2]. [1] http://store.apple.com/us/product/MJ1K2AM/A/usb-c-digital-av... [2] http://store.apple.com/us/product/MJ1L2AM/A/usb-c-vga-multip...
Apparently my current Macbook Pro Retina has better power than "the new macbook" -- http://www.apple.com/mac/compare/results/?product1=macbook&p...

It's small, but it's not as small. That thing's huge in comparison.
For that you get another inch on your screen and 73% more pixels (3200x1800).

Where do you need the battery life? (I mean what scenario)
I work at coffee shops and airplanes. Having 24 hours battery life so I don't even have to carry the power adapter is my dream. You could easily trade the weight of the charger with more batteries in the laptop (You will end up carrying the same weight in your bag) I want to charge my laptop the same way I charge my phone: while I'm sleeping.
