The Form

LAPTOP QUESTIONNAIRE

  • Total budget (in local currency) and country of purchase. Please do not use USD unless purchasing in the US:
    ~800 dollars USD, I am in the US.
  • Are you open to refurbs/used?

Not really.

  • How would you prioritize form factor (ultrabook, 2-in-1, etc.), build quality, performance, and battery life?
    For sure a laptop with a 360 degree touchscreen hingey thingy, as thin as possible, long battery life (about 8 hours), super thin if possible
  • How important is weight and thinness to you?

Weight doesn't matter to me as long as it's not a brick, but thinness is a big thing.

  • Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A.

something under 15, 13-14 preferred (in inches)

  • Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run.

I will be doing CAD editing with Fusion(basic things) and tinkercad. I will also be running photoshop and autodesk sketchbook.

  • If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want?

not gaming

  • Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)?

the keyboard can be crap as i'm going to be using an external mechanical keyboard, a touch screen is VERY necessary, fingerprint reaper/optical drive not needed, a touchpad sorta like the one on Macbooks

  • Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion.

Thanks for reading!
