Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.

Pros

  • the Zenbook is a fine computer, I have one
  • Get the Asus and save your money. Put the leftover in a savings account of some sort and get a new laptop in 5 years if needed
  • I specifically want a balanced Ultrabook (e.g., Asus Zenbook 14 OLED or Lenovo Yoga 7 2-in-1).
  • I was thinking on a gaming laptop like an asus tuf f16, or asus zenbook 14 oled, what do you think is the best or if you have any other suggestions I would really appreciate it.
  • Since you want something that will comfortably last 6+ years, clearly Zenbook.

Cons

  • They're not similar in hardware, that intel chip eats dust compared to the M5, both raw and in efficiency. Memory and speeds are also lower in the zenbook.
  • I would recommend a ZenBook only if you need the oled display. Not saying it can't last 6 years, but you can sell the MacBook in 3 years and get a new one, that's not an option with the ZenBook
  • I considered buy an Asus Zenbook 14 OLED or similar but i saw many negative reviews about

I've noticed a crazy loud sound while watching Youtube (single tab) which I'm pretty sure that it's "coil whining". The sound was unbearable so I deleted Ubuntu... I notice that Arch wasn't working well on my device, for example when I tried watching a YT video, my screen was glitchy.
