Since my girlfriend became obsessed with various IT technologies, he has also begun to dissatisfy with his old office equipment.
These two days have been pestering me to change her office notebook.
I didn't pay much attention to the trivial matter of choosing a laptop, until my girlfriend sent me a JD payment link via WeChat.
Looking at the payment of more than 20,000 generations, and thinking about my bank card balance, my heart suddenly refreshed.
In order to be able to live a prosperous year, I must have a good chat with my girlfriend about choosing an office notebook.
So, taking advantage of the weekend, I started to discuss with my girlfriend "What kind of laptop is the best for office?"
▉ People are stupid and have a lot of money, or are they expensive for reasons?
"You can't bear to buy me more than 20,000 notebooks, I can see you through, scumbag!"
As soon as I met, my girlfriend put the "Scumbag" hat on my head.
Seeing my girlfriend's pity, I know that the girlfriend is really angry this time, so I have to calm down her anger quickly.
I am not reluctant to buy you, but I want to buy you a more comfortable notebook. Look at the MacBook Pro you chose. Although it is good in all aspects, it is not suitable for you.
"Bah, Mr. Li Chengru said, buy only the most expensive things, not the right ones." My girlfriend directly refuted me with the famous line of Mr. Li Chengru, who is very popular recently.
Those are all cheating people and cheating money. Besides, we are also considered as technical people, but we can't fall into the routine of the manufacturer, and be said behind the scenes that "people are stupid and have a lot of money".
Seeing my wife's anger, I quickly put on a technical "top hat" for my wife.
Then continue to say that if you want to choose an office laptop, the first thing you pass is the Apple laptop. If you are not doing design or video-related work, you don't need to choose an Apple laptop.
The appearance and quality of the Apple laptop are good, but the system is Apple's own Mac OS, and many office software cannot support it. Compatibility is a big challenge. For example, it is difficult to install software, access to company shared files, screen projection is abnormal, and various forms of processing are not suitable.
Anyway, using Mac OS will make your office very uncomfortable, and many people who choose Mac office are crazy.
Some people even install a Windows system directly on the Mac. This is not only laughed at by Windows users, but Mac users will also laugh at such users.
Think about your office needs. Among many Windows colleagues, only you use a Mac. Not only is it not practical, but it is also easy to be rejected.
Choose a notebook, after all, it is easy to use. Choosing the right tools can make your work more effective. Just like when we cook and cut vegetables, a knife made of bright gold is not as good as buying a cheap steel knife.
After listening to my explanation, my wife also began to calm down a lot from the beginning, but still gritted her teeth and said fiercely,
Then you recommend me one that suits me. If you can't recommend it, let me see how I clean up you today.
▉ When choosing a laptop, are CPU, memory, and hard disk still important?
Seeing my girlfriend calm down a bit, I also relaxed a little.
Began to continue. With the development of smart phones, current notebook users are basically used in vertical applications such as office or games.
The development of notebook technology has been very mature, and the quality gap between notebooks of different brands is getting smaller and smaller.
In the past, we selected the three major computer components (CPU, content, and hard disk) that computers valued. Now these three major factors are no longer the most important reference factors.
Of course, it’s not that it’s not important to watch it. In order to choose a suitable office notebook, we still have some factors to pay attention to.
For example, in terms of CPU, Toothpaste Factory (Intel) and Agricultural Machinery Factory (AMD) have been deeply involved in the PC market for many years. There is definitely no problem in quality. The key is what you have to do. Intel CPU has good performance and compatibility, but the price is slightly higher. AMD has been good in the past two years, and the price is low, but compatibility is still not as good as Intel. For office, it is more reliable to choose an Intel CPU product.
In terms of memory, 2GB is definitely not enough to meet the demand, why at least 4G of memory is required, if 8G is even better.
For hard drives, don’t choose a traditional mechanical hard drive. It may take a minute to turn on a machine. In the current office environment that pursues efficiency, it will torture people. And the SSD can’t be too small. Why choose a 512GB or more? SSD, of course, the bigger the better, this depends mainly on the money in the pocket.
▉ Look at the age of the face, the notebook also depends on the appearance
Ding Zhen's popularity has made many people fully realize that this is still an age to look at.
Everyone has the so-called love of beauty. When choosing a notebook, you also need to pay attention to the appearance of the notebook. But what kind of laptop is considered a good-looking laptop? Are there any specific standards?
After decades of development, the appearance of the notebook has gone through multiple stages of development, from the initial focus on the size of the notebook, to the slowly beginning to focus on the color and appearance of the notebook. Nowadays, various accessories and interfaces of notebooks have become necessary for a high-value notebook.
Let's talk about the appearance of the notebook first. The colors of the notebook can now be said to be diverse and dazzling. Even if it compares with the color of your smartphone, it is not as good.
But for notebooks, most of them are commercial offices. No matter how many colors are, it is actually only a rich product choice. Classic black and silver are still the first choices of users. If you look at mobile users, you will know that classic black and silver are also mobile users. Two of his favorite colors.
Then there is the size of the notebook. For business office, don't underestimate this.
For today's office workers, it is rare that they are sitting still at their desks, and they may often need to shuttle their notebooks to different locations in the company. And there are often business needs, so for office workers, especially women like you, it is very important to choose a compact notebook. According to your body, a 13-inch or 14-inch notebook will do. 15 inches will be too heavy if you hold it for a long time. Of course, you can't just look at the size, but also look at the weight of the notebook. It's best to be around 1.3kg, which is the best.
The next thing to pay attention to is the interface of the notebook. For business office, you may often need to project screens, share data, transfer data, etc., so the interface of the notebook is also very important when choosing a notebook.
Commonly used HDMI, Type-c, uSD card reader, smart card reader, uSIM card slot, USB interface, audio interface, these are all necessary, and you must choose the right one according to the nature of your work. For example, if you often need to transfer data, then you need to choose a laptop with Thunderbolt interface. If you want a wireless keyboard and mouse, then it is best to choose a laptop with more USB interfaces, and you have to see that they are the first generation, the poorer performance The gap is also big.
▉ There are still many details, which can not be ignored when buying
Of course, in addition to the points mentioned above, there are actually many things we cannot ignore.
For example, the camera, the camera used to be more of an auxiliary function, not much used in the office. However, with the development of industries such as mobile office and online education after the epidemic, there are more and more camera applications. It will be used in meetings and lectures.
The high-definition noise reduction camera is definitely the best. At the same time, it should be noted that the camera is also a place where privacy is very easy to lose. Therefore, the security of the camera must be considered. It is necessary to focus on whether the notebook has settings to protect user privacy. .
In addition, you have to pay attention to the wireless network of your laptop. People are now more and more mobile office, it is impossible to connect to the network again everywhere, that would be too troublesome.
At the same time, the standby time of the power supply also needs to be considered. There are more and more mobile offices, unless you want to carry the power supply every time you go to a meeting, then you must choose a notebook with a long standby time, how can it be able to stand by for 20 hours? can.
Moreover, since people are now facing computers during office hours, there are more and more requirements for computer screens. The screen not only needs to be HD, Full HD, or even 4K, but also needs to be able to protect our eyes and have anti-blue light effects. The monitor will undoubtedly be better. Of course, the screen depends on whether it can support low power consumption, so the computer's standby time will be longer.
Of course, if you don’t like others to see your computer content, you’d better choose a privacy screen so that others can’t see the content on your screen from the side.
At the same time, the heat dissipation function of the notebook is also an important factor for evaluation. Otherwise, if you haven't worked for a long time, your fingers will be burnt, which will greatly affect the user experience.
In addition, the keyboard experience of the notebook cannot be ignored. After all, all your input and output will need to be operated by the keyboard in the future. The layout, size, and speed of the keyboard are all important. There is also a touchpad, which is very important to the overall collaboration capabilities of the notebook.
Moreover, the styles of current notebooks are also various, such as ultrabooks, flipbooks, and two-in-one design styles, but unless you have special needs, regular notebook styles are fine. Other designs will really sacrifice other aspects of notebook performance.
Having said that, have you got it yet?
▉ Follow-up...
After my patient persuasion, my girlfriend finally chose a Dell Latitude 7410 notebook. Seeing her cheerful look when she received the notebook, I knew she was very satisfied this time.
Looking at the RMB saved on my bank card, I am also very satisfied. Yeah, sometimes I really know a little bit of technology.
