Archive.org versionOkay, guys, this is a notebook that may provide a different experience, depending not only on the configuration but on the actual model, itself. Some units pack a 90Wh battery, which should provide great screen-on times, but on the other hand, it lacks the 2.5-inch SATA drive bay. Respectively, the 48Wh unit provides horrendous battery life but enables the option of further storage expansion. On the bright side, there are still two M.2 NVMe slots for SSDs, and two RAM SODIMM slots for up to 64GB of DDR4 memory in dual-channel mode.

15-inch display variants are the standard and are used for more than half of all laptops.
The reason for the popularity of mid-sized displays is that this size is reasonably easy on the eyes, often allows high resolutions and thus offers rich details on the screen, yet does not consume too much power and the devices can still be reasonably compact - simply the standard compromise.
