I’m sick of my laptop breaking after just three years. I want a laptop that:

  • comes with a nice APU
  • does not have a dGPU
  • comes with a chonky thermal solution
  • has lots of battery juice
  • has lots of modern ports
  • is repairable
  • is rugged, bulky and thick
  • is equipped with a nice, thonky keyboard
  • isn’t one of those stupid, low-quality “gAmIng lApTOp”

So far, only the X220 and MNT Reform comes close to this description - the former is a really slow machine for today’s time, and for some reason, still damn expensive. The latter is just too expensive to the point that I’ll have to sell all eight kidneys in my family.

Do they sell anything like this in today’s time, with a reasonable price?

PS. Thick is a strong requirement. I want a really nice cooling solution, plus it also serves it’s purpose as a melee weapon to removed-slap those ultra-book trash-talkers.

    ThinkPad is your only viable option. They have best thermals on a laptop, and if you buy an AMD CPU model, you are set. You will have to fork out 80K to 1L INR, but it will be a machine for atleast 8-10 years besides some maintenance and SSD/RAM/thermal paste replacement needs.
