Honestly build quality matters more than specs if you’re not gaming in my opinion, that’s why old thinkpads are so popular
I personally got burned by a shitty modern laptop because I only looked at the specs and nothing else
I’m talking about things like:
These things are harder to research but they’re imo way more important than specs
Yeah I’ve fallen into this trap before as well. When I shop for a desktop, I tend to go as high-end as I can afford and then sit on the same machine for 7-10 years until it becomes unusable/support begins to wain. That desktop sits under my desk and doesn’t move that whole time, it is in a very controlled environment.
You cannot shop that way for a laptop that will be moved and handled and charged and stowed and scratched and bumped and bent and twisted. Even if you take excellent care of it.
Then you gotta go framework. The ports are all swappable. When you break a port like hdmi you’re basically fucked on a standard laptop. And laptops falling off places is basically guaranteed
I bought a modern MSI gaming laptop with awesome on-paper specs and they did something fucky such that the keyboard doesn’t work until about kernel v6.7. The keyboard. Wtf.
This is important. In sturdiness, hinges and so, MSI usually scores very low. Mine is now a desktop laptop because if I move it is hangs and wont let you boot it again for an hour or so. Strange behavior. Lousy wuality computer.
