    It’s was my dream since a long time, I hate MacOS, but love how MacBooks build, I hope sound and touchpad will be awesome

      Same here when I had to use a friend’s MacBook Pro for a project I was blown away with the incredible build quality yes I felt like it was like if I damm much as accidentally drop a coin on it I felt like it would snap in two but
      I kept it mind when searching for a new laptop but every laptop I actually physically held in my hands felt like cheap and nothing compared to that build quality I hope Samsung has produced something that can compete with the MacBook Pro without Mac OS

      @Ayrton Microsoft surface and razed blade and Lenovo thinkbook are the best on Windows

      It’s expensive as is, no need to add another 5k to the price

    THE ONLY THING I WISH THE ULTRA HAD IS THE 360 TOUCHSCREEN DISPLAY AND 0 LATENCY S PEN SUPPORT.

    Why doesn’t Ultra have a stylus ?(

    • Anthony Hernandez

      Doesn’t make sense since it doesn’t fold in half like the 360

    I used to own a Samsung Ultrabook from 2012. It wasn’t as powerful, but just as thin and light.

    3000$ for a 4070 is a joke. HDMI 2.0? Even overpriced XPS and Blade lineups look like a good value in comparison. Big fan of their smartphones, but laptop are not the drill for me.

    What ram configs do they come with? Previous gen maxed out at 16GB which is not enough for coding and running a few emulators. Min 32GB needed, 64GB would be nice.

    • Su Shant

      February 2, 2023 at 5:21 pm

      This time, it’s upto 32
      You get 8 16 and 32

    • Faris Hakim

      February 2, 2023 at 6:31 pm

      Seriously, 16Gb is not enough? Wow, I thought 12Gb is the ideal already

    • Georgi Ivanov

      February 3, 2023 at 10:18 am

      @Faris Hakim When you use your computer for work not just watching couple of yt vids and game light, you will understand that 32 isn’t pretty much enough. As a 3D artist i struggle with my 32gb and want to upgrade up to 64 at least haha

    • Mike Rydstrom

      February 3, 2023 at 5:07 pm

      @Su Shant Thanks, I saw that later too in spec elsewhere. At least it is viable for most dev tasks then. I need a new Windows dev laptop for building Windows desktop apps. I use a MacBook M1 Pro with 32GB ram and 2TB SSD to target, iOS, Android and Web, it does the job very well. However, I also need to make Windows builds and my old one is getting too sluggish (it has only 16GB and it is not enough), this could be an option, plenty more out there of course.

    • Mike Rydstrom

      February 3, 2023 at 5:13 pm

      @Georgi Ivanov yes I agree, for 3D rendering you might need 64GB. For my dev tasks 32GB is still OK, I have not hit the roof on my MacBook M1 Pro with that yet even with 5 projects open and maybe 3 of them built to multiple targets, iOS, Android and mac desktop. My current 16GB Win laptop struggles with even one project if I build it for multiple targets, 16GB is just not enough for many tasks. Good that they bumped the max to 32Gb. Not many Windows laptop options available that goes up to 64GB.

    I would have preferred hdmi 2.1 and a full size SD card. What a shame.

    • Evacody124

      February 2, 2023 at 4:11 pm

      Does not matter it like the Macbooks it’s trash. Can’t up grade the SSD or ram.

    • pax und peace

      February 3, 2023 at 8:59 am

      At least it has an sd card slot but
      Hdmi 2.0 is a shame even apple has only used the HDMi 2.0 on the previous gen MBP and the Studio while the could have gone the extra mile

  24. Batvds

    My understanding is that the Thunderbolt 4 connection is compatible with USB-C.

    The i7 and i9 Ultra should have touch screens for their price range.

  39. Hugh Gooden

    February 3, 2023 at 1:59 pm

    It’s 2023 and samsung is only giving the ultra a 76watt battery. I’ll wait next year for the 14th gen intel and the 100watt battery

The VC Backing the American Dream with Manan Mehta, Unshackled Ventures

Immigrant founders have built some of the world’s most valuable companies, but many still face barriers that make it harder to get a startup off the ground.

Immigrant founders have built some of the world’s most valuable companies, but many still face barriers that make it harder to get a startup off the ground. Visa restrictions, limited access to friends-and-family capital, shallow networks, and a venture industry built around pattern matching can keep promising founders from getting funded before they have a chance to prove themselves.

In this episode of Build Mode () , host Isabelle Johannesen sits down with Manan Mehta, co-founder and managing partner of Unshackled Ventures, () to talk about why he believes immigrant founders represent one of venture capital’s biggest overlooked opportunities. Manan breaks down how Unshackled built an investment model designed to help founders navigate immigration barriers, why traditional VC pattern matching causes investors to miss potential outliers, and how his team evaluates founders at day zero—often before they have a product, customers, or traction. He also explains why the structural gaps that make some founders harder to fund may be exactly where investors should be looking for outsized returns.

They get into:

The four structural barriers immigrant founders face when starting companies in the U.S.

How Unshackled Ventures helps founders navigate visas while building their startups

Why VC’s reliance on pattern matching can cause investors to miss outlier founders

How Manan evaluates founders before they have a product, customers, or traction

The IQ, AQ, EQ, and SQ framework Unshackled uses to evaluate founder potential

Why resilience, lived experience, and a founder’s relationship to the problem can matter more than a polished pitch

Why structural gaps can create some of the biggest opportunities for investors

How founders without traditional networks can find alternative paths to early capital

Why founders should understand their personal “why” instead of trying to fit the traditional VC mold
