Help me pick a new laptop
My 2012 Macbook Air is starting to show its age. Its been a great machine, but it is no longer getting OS updates from apple and the latest MacOS Catalina has slowed it down significantly. I figure after 9 years it is time for a replacement. I picked the Macbook Air because there were no Windows thin and lights that compared at the time. I see Windows computers have come a long way since then.
The two computers I've been looking at are:
Dell XPS 9310 2in1 - $1760
Core i7-1165G7
16GB RAM
512GB SSD
13.4" 1920x1200 Display - 16:10
51 Whr Battery
Lenovo X1 Titanium Yoga - $2000
Core i7-1160G7
16GB RAM
1TB SSD
13.5" 2256x1504 Display - 3:2
44.5 Whr Battery
The advantage I see of the dell are the price and bigger battery. On the other hand, the Lenovo has a bigger SSD and higher resolution screen, comes with a pen and appears to be much more modular (replaceable SSD, WLAN card).
Are there any other brands or models I should be looking at? I use my laptop mainly for web-browsing, documents and light video. Thanks for the input.
