No surprises here. Just like the lockdown on iPhone screen and part replacements, Macbooks suffer from the same Apple’s anti-repair and anti-consumer bullshit. Battery glued, ssd soldered in and can’t even swap parts with other official parts. 6000$ laptop and you don’t even own it.
A lot of people who talk about how bad Apple laptops are ignore how the rest of the industry is basically moving towards Apple’s design language, but doing it cheaply. If you hate apple, you’ll hate HP even more.
