Yup...took a gap year in Mexico doing volunteer work, and came back fulfilled but pretty...well...broke. Got back to the US (SF Bay Area) and didn't have too much trouble finding a job but still, didn't have a lot of disposable cash for a while. The year abroad had been pretty hard on the already ancient laptop I took with me down south, so I picked up a refurbished, off-lease, Dell Precision M4800 via ebay for about $275 (in 2019). Even 5 years old it was a beast of a machine...obviously it was pretty easily out performed by anything modern in its class (it had an Intel i7-4810MQ quad core CPU and 16GB of ram), but for general computing it was more than adequate. It even handled content creation and games surprisingly well thanks to its M5100 Firepro GPU...a GPU (much like the one in this video) intended more for Solidworks and Autocad and less for games, but it worked decently with games from the same 2015-ish era when the laptop was released and for indie games or even modern mainstream ones at lower settings. I even kept the machine for another year after I picked up a Lenovo Legion 5 (R7-4800H/RTX2060) as it was pretty useful as a secondary machine, but a couple months ago I sold it for $250. So yeah, off-lease workstations are frequently real diamonds in the rough...

@genethebean7597 Год назад

One of the things I liked about the old Precision lineup was the advanced hardware feature set. Like the laptops were always known for their plentiful port selection and state-of-the-art I/O, both inside and out. Now it's just a more expensive, slightly fancier XPS, something that is cool and all but really detracts from that legacy. I still daily drive a Dell Precision M6700 and the fact I have any port I would ever want, always at my disposal, with native port controllers and drivers, is something I don't take for granted.

@genethebean7597 Год назад

@Goat I checked in on the newer models not that long ago. Most of the xx70 series all have a decent number of ports, in conjunction with their thickness. However, they make up a fraction of the product line, which is comprised of mostly XPS-esque devices with only 3x thunderbolt and a headphone jack. I'm happy to see them offer a version with full-size SD, USB-A, HDMI and ethernet, on top of the type-C, but they don't seem to advertise them that much (at least outside of aforementioned corporate scenes). I'm not saying we need to go back to the days when laptops (like the M6700) had 17 ports of varying shapes and sizes, it's just unfortunate to see this kind of focus on the Macbook/XPS-style of laptop.

I really wish there were more 16:10 displays out there, because it's just that little bit better for productivity. I much prefer using it over the 2020 16" MacBook Pro I had been using previously. It doesn't ramp up fans every time I open a browser and a text editor like my Mac did, and battery life is insane... I can regularly go 4-5 hours on battery without having to cut back with anything. If I were in the market for a personal machine, I'd probably be looking at one of these. Dell really has done a great job on the Precision line recently.

@lejoshmont2093 Год назад

I opted for the 5760 because of the vapor chamber and dual thunderbolt controllers and I didn't feel like being a guinea pig. The fans are pretty well behaved. I agree that 16:10 displays should be more popular or at least 16:9 displays should be less popular.

I daily drive the 11th Gen version of this for work and it's a great laptop/workstation. For the people complaining about price, corporate/business customers do not pay the advertised price. They get a discount, not sure how big you need to be to get a decent discount but my laptop was around the $3,000 mark on the website and the company (MNC) paid around $1,500 for it. Keyboard is great. The touchpad is good but I don't use it much as I use a mouse almost 100% of the time. If the gastures are enabled, you can sometimes accidentally zoom or switch displays. The NFC-reader is smartcard compatible but a lot of companies disable that functionality in addition to fingerprints. Not 100% on the rationale for that.

The rant about modern standby and sleep mode hits home so much, I was so confused by why my new laptop won't go to sleep and keeps working only to find out that sleep mode has been entirely removed, so now I do as you, just let it hibernate. Since I keep my laptop lid closed all the time when docked at home, I have to open the lid every time I wanna wake it up instead of just pressing a key on my keyboard, not to mention it takes longer for the computer to wake and it's wearing out my ssd faster because it has to write everything in memory to disk when going to hibernate, all around a pain in the ass. This is one of the worst decisions ever made by MS. And I can't even manually enable sleep mode because apparently that's tied to how the cpu and mobo work as well, so a lot of the blame also goes to Intel and AMD for going along with this decision.

Alex is the hero we don't deserve but we need. His crusade against Modern Standby is needed, the fact that my laptop wakes up in my bag while on standby is so freaking stupid. I love my XPS but having to put it into hibernation or turning it off every single time it's so annoying.

I got a lenovo slim 7 pro X. It's the precision 14 with a 3k 120hz monitor and a software suite that doesn't suck. Auto lock and auto login with windows hello is a killer feature. Auto switch from 60 to 120hz when the picture is static to save battery. Keyboard shortcuts to switch between power plans. And it's waaaaaaaay cheaper.

@@lejoshmont2093 again I don't know if the keyboard has changed between the 5560 and the 5760 so I can't say definitively if Dell has tweaked the keyboard or if they're using the same one.

@lejoshmont2093 Год назад

@@richiemohanty5107 It might be a different keyboard. Idk I was coming from the butterfly key switches of a mbp, so pretty much anything has a lot of key travel compared to those. I would say it has more key travel than apple's pre butterfly key switches (pre 2016).

There are plenty of resources online on how to enable normal S3 sleep, and it seems to be a pretty simple fix. Personally I think modern standby sucks, though it's pretty nice for my mobile workstation that I use a desktop replacement.

Did you notice how reflective the display is? It shows the t-short print from the top or over-the-shoulder view on the laptop. It is especially visible in gaming demo. I wonder how the display shows anti-glare in front of a window, in daylight.

Is there an LMG video out there that addresses Windows Modern Standby and how to disable or tweak it in the group policy editor or registry? I'm sure a lot of users would be interested to know the trick. Of course, AFTER they are warned that messing with their registry files or group policy could screw up their computer. LMG could also show how to change the behavior of the unit when the lid is closed.

@mirknight Год назад

This video helped push me to buy a latitude 5400-series I was eyeing for quite some time. Mine will have intel HD but it supports eGPU so I can still game on it at home. I like having two (legacy) type-A 3.0 ports in addition to two complete USB-C ports.

@@lejoshmont2093 So far, I do. After agressive power tuning, I can get about 20 hours of usage out of a single charge (mostly browsing ifixit, google sheets, and a site to keep track of tickets. Haven't had to do anything intensive yet, but I have an eGPU with a 3080 that works flawlessly with it so I tested a few games

@aranykai Год назад

I'd imagine you could actually get it for quite a bit less if you asked for a direct quote. Dell's business prices are sightly inflated compared to their retail side, but they'll often match or beat them if you just ask. I've been buying my laptops from them this way for years. Pro support is amazing.

@CUDdev Год назад

Just regarding hibernating on Windows, my older XPS 13 and 15 I have made sure to enable hibernate. However, just turn off background apps and set it to sleep before hibernating so you can close it and open the laptop without it hibernating immediately. Connected standby is pretty useless so it's a shame we need to bother we these methods instead of a simple toggle to turn it off.

@W1ldTangent Год назад

My workplace has been a longtime customer, and I cannot find comparable laptops cheaper from anyone else. And it's not been for lack of trying, I'm required to by policy. They often even undershoot their own bids when I get final quotes which were already low enough I get accounting asking me why I have so much money leftover from the replacements budget. I literally have to choose the stupid RAM upgrades just to pad the price. Nobody in my office needs 16GB of RAM except maybe two people, and yet there's a few rocking double that... because Dell apparently hates money and I have to throw it at them for them to take it.
