I already specified Latitude vs T14. Latitude numbering very confusing to me.

Most of the non commercial laptops does not have lan port. Because the laptop is too thin. Some gives USB to lan adapter. But most does not. So need to spend another RM60 or more for a Gigabit USB Type C lan adapter.

Those non commercial laptops reliable and light?

i stop using usb c lan after my connection keep cutting out for no reason.
damn annoying .
i still prefer the physical lan port.
you are right .. most of the inspiron 12th gen intel has not lan port anymore.
damn it.

Commercial laptops does have better build quality. The flex test is one of the few things that shows it. Many ports options and availability is another. And commercial laptops usually come with Windows Pro instead of Home. Light or not depends on how much you are willing to pay for it. Thinkpad lightest solid offering are the X1 series. Cost a bomb. For DELL it is the XPS series.

Thks
Last time I always can get more info in the Ultrabook thread or the brand thread itself. Nowdays all these threads are almost dead. No more active user posting. I wonder what happened to those active users

Follow Apple. Laptops no longer serviceable to maximize profits.

If u can keep using and upgrade your existing laptops, manufacturers will lose money from there.

That's why I never bother to upgrade any of my laptops. I still have the good old X61T, X230, E440 for work and E6540, M6700 for entertainment.

For portable entertainment, I have the E7240. All bought as junk or parts only and I restored them back.

buy macbook air

What, so bad?
I just recently buy HP desktop

Dell, techie come to you
Lenovo manyak leceh


sos own both

Maybe now better. I donno la. Never interested in HP anymore. Bad service no more chance. Those day have to go semantan building there. Parking susah.

Never a fan of Dell. Using a T14s now. Solid notebook.

desktop i will build myself.
only laptop need to choose wisely.

HP no longer have walk in service anymore. I have visited their service center from Old Town to Semantan when the place was called HP towers. The company is not into repair business. They will charge kaw kaw for repairs. Or give you 20-30% discount vouchers to buy their replacement products at authorized sellers. Also do understand that big corporations like this does not stock spare parts. Its better to get it worked on by 3rd party after warranty is over.

there is difference between premium and normal laptops.
lenovo yoga slim 7 build is solid. better than ideapad 5 pro. although both of them are aluminium build, ideapad 5 flex is same as plastic build. yoga is the sturdiest build i own currently. tested keyboard deck and lid flex. onsite warranty service is good in penang island. not sure for other states.

still havent own a ThinkPad before. hope to try it out 1 day.

Your HP with built in battery ah?

My lenovo legion within 2 years keyboard got issue and they come onsite repair. Also added HDD when requested. No hassle.
My dell lattitude battery spoilt they come onsite replaced.
My new lenovo T14 so far ok only complain is it's a bit hot at times at the right side (air vent area).

Both are fine.

Cannot remember liao
I only experience dell onsite. Very good.

you dont see ppl selling Lenovo on Garage Sales its bcs these laptops (Lenovo) tahan lasak.

Edited: Lenovo Thinkpad to be specific

Asalkan bukan Lenovo.
So far, I like Dell especially their warranty support.
One person, meat, another person's poison.
When Lenovo was still IBM, warranty is still good.
After fully become Lenovo, warranty went down south.
Ini tak boleh claim, itu tak boleh claim, sbb tak beli insurance.
Macam2 alasan diberi.
Tak pernah pun berlaku dengan Dell.
If you don't want headache, perhaps Dell. Asus to me is ok.
