People are pushing this as a MacBook killer but it's more like an iPad Pro killer. With the same 4GB of RAM, a Core m3 and 128 GB of storage, it costs $100 less than the iPad Pro with the same RAM and storage (but an ARM processor). The m3 here makes a good difference.
For the same as the 8GB i5 with 256 GB, you get a MacBook with a Core m and the built-in keyboard. It's slower than the i5, but it's an actual laptop.
