Battery life is maybe the only thing on that list that has anything to do with productivity. I'll even be generous and throw in the high res external display as an added productivity perk. The rest of the things on your list are nice to have, but many of them are available in much cheaper laptops. The screen working outside in the sun is also debatable unless you're talking about the matte screen, which costs extra.
Again, I use a MBP as my primary computer and I wouldn't trade it for anything.
- pepsi_can 16y agoI would argue that a satisfying keyboard is also important for a software developer. Some of the things I mentioned are probably not important for productivity. But in my case my work laptop and my personal laptop are the same. So a light-up keyboard and good speakers are nice to have when watching movies on a Friday night with my wife (For example).
