1. New laptops are more compact and lighter
Laptops are a lot thinner and lighter now than they were 5 years ago. In addition, the edges around the screen have become considerably thinner over the years. As a result, laptops have relatively more screen space than before.
2. New laptops are faster and more silent
A Solid State Drive, or SSD, is the standard type of storage for laptops nowadays. The SSD doesn't have any moving parts, so new laptops produce less noise. An SSD is a lot faster than the traditional hard drive too. Laptops and programs start within 15 seconds. In addition, most new laptops have an Intel Core processor from the i-series, like the Intel Core i3, i5, i7, or i9 processor. These processors perform tasks fast and are very energy-efficient as well.
3. New laptops have a longer battery life
Laptops don't just develop in terms of storage and screen size, because the technology in the battery improves as well. In combination with the latest generation of energy-efficient Intel® Core™ processors, a new laptop can easily last an entire working day without having to recharge. There aren't always sockets around, and you won't have to worry about that anymore if you have a new laptop. The charger can stay home in the future.
4. New laptops are more user-friendly
You no longer have to log in with a password. Many laptops now have a fingerprint scanner. That way, you can log in quickly, easily, and safely, because only your fingerprint can unlock the laptop. A laptop with Intel® Realsense™ or an infrared camera will let you log in based on facial recognition. Don't forget Windows Ink, which you can use to turn your laptop into a digital notebook with a touchpen.
5. Choose a 2-in-1 laptop: the best of both worlds
Nowadays, you don't have to operate a laptop with just your keyboard and touchpad. 2-in-1 laptops have a touchscreen, so you can swipe through websites or applications just like do on your smartphone or tablet. The keyboard can be folded or detached, so the 2-in-1 turns into a big tablet. Very useful if you like to work with your laptop in your lap and enjoy operating a touchscreen, whether it's at home or on the go.
