If there is a Chinese firm determined to look like Apple, this is Xiaomi. Everyone present already knows it well for its devices "similar" to those designed and manufactured by the guys from Cupertino, but this time it's up to the MacBook and the scheme adds a minimalist design, with specifications in which the 8th generation Intel processors.
The Xiaomi Mi Notebook Air, add a reasonable resemblance to the 12-inch Apple computers, but personally I think it stays that way ... for the price that Xiaomi asks for these equipment It is really worth considering the purchase of an Apple computer, yes, as long as you want to use macOS.
The owner of the Xiaomi website in China in which the novelties in these Notebook Air, is clearly revealed the brand's interest in showing its own MacBook: "The XNUMXth Generation Intel Processor and Space Gray Color" they are now available on their website. Beyond the similarity in color, the Chinese company shows that it follows closely in Apple's footsteps and the resemblance to Macs is increasingly more.
Firm bet on Intel
Without being afraid of the recent problems of Intel's processors, Xiaomi is betting everything on its Mi Notebook Air model, with os 14nm Intel Kaby Lake processors. This is an interesting point for a team that has the i5 and i7 available, in addition to adding an NVIDIA GeForce MX150 GPU with 2 Gbytes of GDDR5 memory, 8 Gbytes of DDR4 RAM and a 256 Gbyte PCIe SSD hard drive.
And when at the beginning we talked about the price, it was for something since these teams are already available in China with a price close to 700 euros to change, worryingly, the price we do take into account that when arriving in Spain officially in the event that they arrive (if not, I do not see logic their purchase due to warranty issues) it would be increased by taxes, becoming very close to Apple's MacBook Air , with what is not a team as cheap and as good as they want us to see.
In short, we do not have to detract from the team, yes, it is a good laptop but for us it is very far from the Mac in terms of quality of materials, performance between software and hardware and especially in the first, Windows vs macOS ... The best for We the fingerprint sensor built into the trackpad, something that Apple should implement in their MacBook this year, if they do not want to add the Face ID of the iPhone X, don't you think?
