Now that this wasn't announced and it's gonna be shit anyways, what's the best 15 inch laptop on the market?
>screen
>battery life
>portability
>connectivity

Are we doomed /g/?
>>
>>screen
>>battery life
Since these are typically in opposition, what you're really asking for is a subjective answer of "best." That means absolutely nothing. Maybe consider quantifying what you need in those categories and see what fits the bill. The only number you've given so far is 15".

Not your personal review tech blog faggit

And the obvious answer is macbook, but you're too poor to buy one

Pretty good. If you have money, get that. If you don't, get a refurbished business laptop.

Let me guess, it has an extra loud muffler on the fan outlet a and a big spoiler on the lid.

Also this.

Seriously, why are manufacturers still doing this childish shit? You would swear apple have a patent on using non-shit materials or something.

Thinkpads. I have a w540 and a t540 both are great. I have a x260 for battery life but I hate everything else about it mostly its small.

Im 6'3'' though maybe it wont matter to you. Its great for text work and ssh all day. Ill honestly get 12 hours out of the 9 cell battery.

I would honestly get an XPS 15 right away if it came with Intel Iris Pro instead of the nVidia which I won't even use and which will just make the whole thing loud as shit.
>>
>>55072055
the trackpad is pretty shit. the keyboard feels cheap with flexing and shit travel.

build is pretty good though and the screen is beautiful.

overall i prefer the latest thinkpad x1 carbon

if you're talking about the size of the machine that's a good thing because it makes the fans work LESS HARD you tard.

also can your dell/mac do this? didn't think so faggot

Dell chromebook 13, buy bigger ssd and install GalliumOS.
Profit.

>>55076469
the laptop is good but at this point it's pretty much a semi-portable desktop which you have to keep plugged in at all times. it's the opposite of a macbook

no, because my computer has a battery that can last me longer than half an hour

>Applicability to "ruggedized" consumer products[edit]
MIL-STD-810 is a flexible standard that allows users to tailor test methods to fit the application. As a result, a vendor's claims of "...compliance to MIL-STD-810..." can be misleading. Because no commercial organization or agency certifies compliance, commercial vendors can create the test methods or approaches to fit their product. Suppliers can—and some do—take significant latitude with how they test their products, and how they report the test results. When queried, many manufacturers will admit no testing has actually been done and that the product is only designed/engineered/built-to comply with the standard. This is because many of the tests described can be expensive to perform and usually require special facilities. Consumers who require rugged products should verify which test methods that compliance is claimed against and which parameter limits were selected for testing. Also, if some testing was actually done they would have to specify: (i) against which test methods of the standard the compliance is claimed; (ii) to which parameter limits the items were actually tested; and (iii) whether the testing was done internally or externally by an independent testing facility.[17]

Literally doesn't mean anything outside of military contracts

you kids are too spoiled with new tech. A laptop that's 5.6 pounds is not that bad. Thinness and shaving off a few ounces by making a system that's nearly impossible to self service is lame.
