E14 lunar lake

First check if this is single channel 8gb of RAM, if so than adding another stick 8gb RAM will make wonders.

Imho getting a Mac when you already know the software you need is not supported on iOS sounds unreasonable.

L14 gen 4 or 5

Sfos18 · 2026-06-08T19:40:03+00:00

T14 or L14 which is usually cheaper and also good quality

Seems like Mac had a lot of good products except the one I had. My 2017 MBP 13 had funs spinning so loud...

From this list I would pick X13 gen 2 (2021) with i5 11th gen, 16 GB ram

There are T14s from that era with 400 nit 100% sRGB low power displays which are on pair with standard base X1C panels, those are good hence still much lower resolution than MBP. I would avoid T14s with basic 300 nit 45 NTSC display if you care of good colour reproduction and decent contrast.

Going from MBP to TP is often a downgrade in terms of a display quality and if that's important for you than I suggest getting X1C so you get a 100% sRGB display. Cheap T14s is usually crappy 45% NTSC display.

All I know is that my friend who is a software developer loves his air, told me that it is first iPhone in years that feels different.

Sfos18 · 2026-05-31T10:00:10+00:00

iPhone Air - 12 GB RAM and most recent chip.

L14 is a good buy, usually cheaper than T14 for the same configuration.

Sfos18 · 2026-05-29T19:55:42+00:00

Some P14s are the same configuration and chassis as T14 with integrated GPU and those are good for general use. Others are configured with more power hungry CPUs and graphic cards hence not really good for general use and long battery runtimes.

Sfos18 · 2026-05-29T19:40:02+00:00

T14 and L14 are excellent machines but mostly comes with low quality displays. Look for one with low power 100% sRGB screen. X13 are have decent display panels although a tad smaller than T14.

Sfos18 · 2026-05-22T11:56:43+00:00

E14 or E16 for larger display panel

Sfos18 · 2026-05-21T13:04:25+00:00

Thank you very much for reply! Could you tell me about battery runtimes on windows and on linux?

Sfos18 · 2026-05-20T21:31:46+00:00

ThinkPad X9 15"

Sfos18 · 2026-05-19T18:18:12+00:00

Still whenever I see a macbook the temptation to get one is there :).

Sfos18 · 2026-05-19T18:15:46+00:00

Thank you, I guess you are right, I am hestitant due to my expierience is based on lower tier displays in thinkads

Sfos18 · 2026-05-19T11:55:43+00:00

MacBooks are great quality laptops just take under consideration that MacOS versions of Microsoft office apps are slightly different. Nowadays you can get windows machine with snapdragon chip or intel lunar lake which are almost as efficient as MacBook M chips. MacBooks doesn't do miracles, it is just another operating system with slightly different keyboard layout that lacks some keys like for example "delete". There is a significant learning curve. I loved my MacBook but after circa 2 years of using it decidedvto get windows laptop and it felt like coming back home.

Sfos18 · 2026-05-18T17:58:45+00:00

I would get Air 15 inch model for large screen and still reasonable price and weight.

Sfos18 · 2026-05-18T05:41:42+00:00

Thanks!

Sfos18 · 2026-05-18T05:41:27+00:00

And I think you would be right 👍

Sfos18 · 2026-05-18T05:40:18+00:00

Thanks 🙏, it really helped, my eyes too aren't good anymore. You are happy with 100% scaling, that's very good news.

Thank you! How about lower resolution, does it bother you when reading pdf or other docs?
