You forgot about 15” X1E, which is a desktop replacement. It’s still light and portable but comes with higher specs. I have one with UHD screen, 32GB and 1TB. Same weight as a 15” MacBook Pro. Configured with an FHD screen, it’s lighter than MacBook.
- basch 6y agoalso the FHD screen has twice the battery life, if you want to make that trade off.
- nullobject 6y agoI just switched to the X1E after using Mac for the past 20 years. I'm running Ubuntu 20.04. It's an amazing machine: excellent build quality, screen, and variety of ports. The only thing I can complain about is the battery life, which isn't great.
- RedneckBob 6y agoYou installed cpufreaq yet? It is a life saver and a battery saver too. I run most of the time with 4 cores, turbo disabled, and capped at about 50%. Makes a huge difference in battery runtime. https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/1082/cpufreq/ https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/1082/cpufreq/
