Frequently asked questions
How much RAM and storage do I really need?
For most people 16GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD is the comfortable sweet spot. 8GB still works for light use but leaves little headroom, and cloud storage makes smaller drives more liveable than they used to be.
What's a realistic battery life expectation?
Knock 20 to 30 percent off the advertised figure for real mixed use. Reviews are the most reliable source of true battery numbers, and it's one of the first things owners complain about when a claim is optimistic.
Should I buy a laptop with a touchscreen?
Nice to have, not essential. Touch adds cost and a little battery drain; it earns its keep on convertibles used for notes and drawing. For typing-first work, spend the difference on a better screen or more RAM.
