I was contemplating lately about getting a new laptop and while I found some great deals among 15.6" laptops (also wanted a little change since all my previous laptops were either 13“ or 14") I always seem to be drawn towards the 14" or smaller devices again...
They seem to be better made and have more balanced specs than most bigger devices.
>>
Because they cost more for the same specs
>>
I have a 12.1", 13.3" and a 14".

13-14" is perfect size. 12.1" is too small to work on.

I can't imagine having a 15.6" or a 17" laptop. That's a 'desktop laptop'.
>>
because NOBODY GIVES A SHIT
just get the screensize you want/need
>>
>>57896899
They are not. I have had 10", 12", 13" and 14" laptops, but 14" is the sweetspot.
>>
>>57897734
How small is your lap?
>>
>>57896899
Manlets, when will they learn?
>>
>>57896899
tfw all the cheap laptops are 15.6"

Fuck this, man. It really pisses me off.
That shit is just not portable enough.

But I guess normies nowadays buy laptops and then use them at home like desktop replacements.
>>
12.5" and 13.3" are the only options. Everything else is trash
>>
>>57897810
Exactly my point! I personally don't consider anything bigger than 14" (except the XPS 15 maybe) portable enough to be a true laptop.

>>57897670
If 13"-14" was the normie standard, I'm pretty sure that prices would go down quite a bit (as they did in the past 5 years)

>>57897795
Just don't like to lug a crappy built suitcase with a half-hour battery life around m8.. It's time to leave the 20th century
>>
Laptops are too small. I'd like a 20"+ model.
>>
>>57898071
Isn't it at that point easier and cheaper to get a desktop or a AIO?
Also if you're in the megatop meme I believe Acer just introduced a 21" behemoth.
>>
>>57898150
Acer predator 21x

IDGAF how big you like them, as long as they're 16:10 at bare minimum.
>>
>>57898240
still more portable than a desktop and still takes up less space

Maybe. But for something this big, upgradeability is a joke... Atleast old thiccc notebooks let you swap components with ease.
>>
>>57896899
Good things come in small packages. It's more important to not be sloppy with limited size constraints.

I fell for the 17 inch meme. End my life.

>>57898150
Gaming and laptop do not belong in the same sentence.

>>57898319
I taught that people in the USA and in Europe worship gays. I'm Russian.

>>57898513
Thats my opinion too, but since "muh inches" anon asked I suggested an option...

GPD Win is the only decent option or there is another chink goodie out there?
>>
>>57896899
its because youre poor

15.x" is the patrician size. Anyone who claims otherwise should be ridiculed.
>>
I prefer my x220 over my newer HP broadwell but fuck is there something like an x220 with dgpu?
>>
>>57900006
Not poor, just reasonable. Some people don't live in mommies & pops basement. Besides the markups on the prices here are disgusting and it's going to be obsolete in like 3-4 years so anything above 1500$ doesn't make sense anyway...

yeah a T420, I don't want to think about the thermal nightmare that would come from
stuffing a dGPU into a x220 form factor

Who's Patricia and why would she matter?

>tfw 8"
JUST
>>
>>57898150
Not for gaming. I want a 4k+ 20"+ screen laptop for a transportable workstation. 14" isn't close to enough and staying in it doesn't stay in the office. I wish Thinkpad had some larger sizes.
>>
>>57896899
because laptops are for portability and someone not living a meme would have a proper comfortable workstation when not on the go
