DSI generally select employees' workplaces in a reasonable, low-cost manner. Moreover, the workstation is often considered as a cost to bear, and the lower it is, the better. But according to a Forrester study, 36% of employees believe that ISD does not provide the devices they need to be productive.
If originally the laptop was designed for professionals, it is now declined for the general public and even for gamers. However, professionals still need a specific configuration, including the following:
The touch screen
Launched with Windows 8 and improved with Windows 10, the touch screen is extremely effective in mobility situation, especially if it is integrated in a pivot screen. A keyboard certainly keeps its usefulness for entering data, but the ability to designate and touch a screen simply and directly increases productivity.
The SSD hard disk
An SSD is almost in all respects superior to a mechanical model (flow, latency, power consumption). But for professionals, it is especially its robustness that is a real asset. Indeed, a "classic" hard drive involves the mechanical interaction between storage elements (trays) and access elements (the read / write heads).
As a result, even slight impacts can cause magnetic surface scratches or deterioration of the access elements, with data loss, sometimes permanent. SSDs have no moving parts, and their resistance is much higher.
drums
In a situation of mobility, autonomy is the nerve of war. A highly capacitive battery with express charging is a must. Among the best performing models today are the Dell XPS 13 laptops with over 22 hours of battery life, the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon and the Lenovo Yoga 920 with around 16h. There are also high capacity backup chargers, such as the MAXOAK 6 ports (5/12 / 20V) with a capacity of 50000 mAh / 185Wh.
The processor
A lack of power means a drop in productivity. The latest Intel Core i5 and i7 processors are racing beasts, and synonymous with high performance. We also find professionals who equip themselves with gamers' laptops (like Diota, the specialty of augmented reality industrial), because they are equipped with the highest components of ranges.
In this little game, the MSI GT83VR Titan is the reference of the moment by shipping a class H processor. Normally the laptops only integrate processors "low consumption" class U. The class H incorporates more powerful chips, with a higher number of hearts. The Core i7-8850H houses 6 cores and has Hyper-threading to double the number of threads used by the system.
The weight
Here is an element not to neglect when you walk all day with a laptop. To lower the weight, manufacturers use specific materials on their high-end machines, such as carbon fiber, lightweight and resistant. The Dell Latitude 7390 2-in-1 notebook, for example, is made from recycled carbon fiber. The Acer Swift 5 (SF515-51T) has an unrivaled size and weight. With only 1.59 cm of thickness for 990 grams, it holds the record of lightness. Lenovo also markets the ThinkPad X1 Carbon also interesting.
Security
A laptop for business use contains business data, so it is necessary that it is secure at best. The EliteBook x360 for example is accompanied by a complete pack of security tools, ensuring the integrity of the bios of the machine, offers a protection against visual hacking function that blurs the peripheral view on the screen, and the Part storage is encrypted.
Dell Business PCs also offer encryption, authentication with optional fingerprint reader, and advanced malware prevention.
