Reviews for the Durabook S14I
The Durabook S14I inherits many features of modern Ultrabooks and then some including the latest Intel U-series CPUs, NVMe SSDs, Wi-Fi 6, and USB-C with support for both Power Delivery and DisplayPort. The usual drawbacks remain, but they are a bit easier to overlook.

Archive.org versionBuyers of rugged laptops, sturdy systems designed to be bolted to first responders' dashboards or dropped onto rocky ground, make a distinction between "semi-rugged" and "fully rugged" notebooks—machines rated to survive a fall of three feet versus six feet, say, or pouring rain versus a high-pressure hose. Its maker calls the Durabook S14I ($3,004 as tested) "one step above semi-rugged," meaning it's not the most bulletproof laptop you can buy, but it's still formidably tough, versatile, and well-equipped. The S14I hits a sweet spot for users whose work takes them (and their gear) into harm's way. The only thing keeping it from an Editors' Choice award is its mediocre battery life. You'll definitely want to fill its modular bay with the available second battery pack instead of the DVD drive found in our test unit.
