Surface? Lenovo?

Requirements: bigger screen (15" minimum), excellent build quality, a real attached keyboard is required (i.e. not a tablet that can be converted into a laptop), a numerical keypad would be nice but not required, not too heavy for lugging around, touchscreen/stylus functionality not necessary but fine if within budget

Not sure how much RAM or hard drive space I need since most things will be saved in the cloud and backed up on an external hard drive

Any computer mastermen here? There's a shitton of options and I haven't bought a computer in probably 15 years besides the ones GC gave me

Currently using a Surfacebook from 2016 and it still works and looks good so I'm thinking of getting another one

Budget: up to $2000

for one thing the keyboard shortcuts are not the same, then you're always running windows as a shell on iOS so you're rarely using any of the Apple functionality since almost everything is saved on the windows instance. it's really gay, would never do this again

i've had a few thinkpads, the only thing i didn't like about them is the build quality. they feel flimsy. the surfacebook i'm on now in comparison feels sturdier, there's more metal and less plastic.

using a z13 which doesnt meet your needs for screen size, but the materials and quality are fantastic. tiny bust solid as a rock. ive never used one, but would assume the z16 is just as good.

had a surface, liked it a lot, but found it a bit quirkier and a bit lower quality and went lenovo this time around. the new snapdragon surfaces have me looking again, but i dont want to be a first adopter.

This. I operate a firm with like 10 staff. I buy several year old x1 carbons for my staff and they run flawlessly, even ones that are 5+ years old.

At one point Lenovo yogas were on sale and I grabbed 3 cause they had better specs. Never again. They are complete and utter garbage.

I currently have two brand new x1s sitting in boxes, one of which is a higher end one to replace my 3 yr old x1. Still haven’t bothered to open them because my 3 yr old comp still works great and it’s more trouble than it’s worth to set up the new one at this point.

Mass surveillance of our digital lives is totally out of control, and it’s only getting worse with AI turbocharging everything. Your number one consideration when buying a new device in 2024 needs to be privacy. Something like this would be a good option:
