Business laptops aren’t meant just to stay in the office and be connected to a couple of monitors or a dock, or whatever. They are meant to be taken to meetings, in the plane, at home or even at the coffee shop. They are defined by versatility and the best in the class are good all-rounders. Not only that but a business device represents its owner, hence it has to give a sense of authority. Although build solely from plastic, the Lenovo ThinkPad E580 is sturdy enough to give a feel of reliability, and the ThinkPad signature makes it recognizable. However, when we talk about style, we would be happier if we saw an aluminum body as in the case of Acer Swift 3, for example.

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.
