- 15.6" high-resolution OLED screen (but a 13.3" equivalent, due to a thinner bezel)
- 32GB+ RAM
- Best Intel multi-core processor
- Mag-safe adapter (or wireless charging), rather than USB-C
- 180+ degree swivel
- Fingerprint ("Touch ID") sensor
- 24+ hour battery life (that is, I charge the laptop while I'm sleeping, wake up, use it all day and all night, then set it to charge and go to bed. 9am wake up and 2am bedtime = 17 hours. That is, 17 hours of continued use, with lulls throughout at the end of which I will not get a "low battery" warning. So 18 hours to be safe, or at least 12 real hours if 18 is too much)
- Something to make wireless headphones commonplace
- Touchscreen (would give up for something better)
- Continued presence of solid unibody design, backlit keyboard, great touchpad, etc
- Not normally particular about GPU, but as it speeds up the training time of machine learning algorithms, I'm suddenly all for having a decent one (though not so much that I'd jump to getting a heavy, clunky, and ugly "gamer laptop")
