12 Years ago I had a Sony Vaio. I quite liked it. Then in my next job, 2017 or so, I went for a Toshiba Portege, and absolutely loved it.
Guess what the above two have in common? Yup, they stopped making laptops for the professional market. So now I’m a bit at a loss. Any recommendations?
Requirements:
- Lightweight and easy to carry around.
- 13-15" display, preferably
- Decent battery life
- It absolutely must have an RJ45
- Works well with linux
- Good keyboard quality
- ISO keyboard availability
- Touchpad. Bonus points if it has the touchpad buttons ABOVE the pad itself.
Lenovo seems to be pretty solid but fuck… I still have a grudge over how much shittier they are than the old IBM ThinkPads.
My last and current laptops were and are Lenovo. I definitely recommend
We have nothing but problems with the ThinkPads issued by my IT department. Multiple models. They’re not what they used to be.
Same here, both E Series and L Series.
Those are the shit ones. Only T, X, W are the proper ones.
The problematic models we have are all T series.
Newer ones flex a lot more.
