I need a portable laptop to:
- have a lot of online quality video calls
- type a lot during each meeting
- have a ton of browser tabs open
- have a few CPU-demanding apps running at the same time
I will use this laptop as my main PC.
I’m also considering:
- T480s
- Carbon X1 Gen 7-8
- Dell 7490
The Carbox X1 Gen7 is probably a decent choice, but it will depend on the specs - get at least an i5, and max out the RAM to 16GB - you can’t add it later, so make sure to buy one with the 16GB.
I have an x1 Gen7 and it’s great. EXCEPT for the battery life which is fucking awful. Maybe 4 hours if you’re lucky. It was originally advertised as having 18 hours.
What’s truly so much better about it compared to T480? Or 7480
