This laptop looks like mixed bag of opinions. I'm looking something to switch from rMPB 2013 (need more RAM, storage). That laptop i still on my list but on last position.
I had rMBP2016 for 3 months and I could't write on that keyboard. After 1-2 hr's I felt pain in my fingers because constant contact of my nails with that keyboard. And I don't have some bear nails :) Sold it and now my short list is
1. Lenovo X1 carbon WQHD - best keyboard I ever written.
2. XPS 13 (coil whine, spongy keyboard)
3. XPS 15 - problems described in many places ..
Still can't make decision :/
- cm2187 9y agoI suggest the lattitude E7470 or E7480 (if you don't see a laptop as a fashion statement). Light, practical, enough ports (the E7470 has a full Ethernet port) and a boring keyboard (which is what I expect from a keyboard).
- sp0ck 9y agoMy friend have one of lattitude models (12.5") and those Dell business screens are not the best ones IMO. Maybe I'm wrong but it is hard to find reseller that have those on the shelf to touch and feel :/
- cm2187 9y agoI never felt like it was a cheap screen but I am probably not the best judge. I own a E7270 too but I find that format to be too small for any serious work. 14in is a good balance between being portable and comfortable.
- manaskarekar 9y agoActually the matte FHD (1920x1080) displays on the E7450/7470/7480 are some of the best displays with no pwm etc. They're not the widest color gamut but they're solid. Can't speak for the touchscreens.
- noir_lord 9y agoI'm ordering the T470P today, 7700HQ (4C/8HT) with a 2560x1440 screen. No thunderbolt 3 (strange one that) but otherwise exactly what I wanted and with discount comes in around 250 cheaper than the XPS15 with a 1080 screen.
