I hear these suck. No battery life and bad cooling.

They have their shortcomings but it's all worth it to have pro-sumer hardware, in my opinion. I just can't bear to give my money to consumer-hostile companies anymore.

True, that’s why I mostly buy used. I can’t see myself buying any electronic new except for important main computer or server parts

Buying used is not as bad but still supports the resale value of consumer-hostile devices, which indirectly supports their new value.

I buy from a local electronic recycler, I highly doubt there is any downside from them saving stuff from being thrown away
