>a few mPCIe slots
>edge to edge keyboard

a laptop w/ a decked out cpu and 16gb or replaceable ram (maybe hdd too) that has thunderbolt 3 for eGPU in a thin, macbook pro-like body that can be used all day on battery using igfx to save power, taken home and plugged in as a main desktop with gpu. all under $1600, that razer blade stealth got pretty close but i hate that logo and cpu looks underpowered

So a Thinkpad T450? Yeah, that's a great machine.
Get one where the keys aren't gonna be ones where you're not gonna slip with sweat and where the f and j nubs are noticeable, because that's my main issue with my keyboard. Get one that's backlit, unless you're retarded.

i would love the thinkpad x220 but it's screen blows
>Using laptops when smartphones exist
For what purpose. If you need to do computer stuff use a desktop.
>>53421220
Lightweight.
Comfy, lit keyboard.
Fast enough for browsing and HD video.
Good quality.
That's it really. I don't care about display that much since I have a desktop as well. I just want something decent to carry around. I have a memepad x220 and it fits my needs perfectly.

>Screen resolution that's not 1366x768 pig disgusting
>Battery life
>Graphics card for muh gaming OTG
>Size and Weight
Don't care much for touchpads as I can just use a wired mouse, keyboard isn't really an issu for me either as long as it's at least scissor instead of membrane

I believe the correct term is a toaster.

>aluminum or titanium chassis
>not magnesium alloy
pleb tier, magnesium is lighter and stronger. It's objectively the best.
OP:
runs linux without too much trouble
no creepy intel backdoors
long battery life
nipple, trackpads are for black people
I love the keyboards on elitebooks and real thinkpads
Apple logo on the lid of my laptop is the most important, IMO.

I don't go around throwing my laptop at walls and shit, it's not for durability.
>long battery life
>good design; not some ugly taiwanese macbook clone "designed" by checklist to appeal to retards who buy on BIG NUMBERS for buck alone
>actually portable, not just thin and light
