Laptop relacement options
1. Dell Latitude 7420
2. HP Elitebook 830 G8
3. HP Elitebook 840 G8
4. Lenovo ThinkPad T14 G2

HP 830 is i5 and the lightest. Lenovo is an i5.
I typically only procure by weight but an i7 might be nice.

Dell. I have had multiple coworkers regretted taking HP laptops at different points in time. Their ventilation/cooling is pretty bad and can overheat easily even when you just run some large spreadsheets.

These days with windows 11, I’d take whatever has an I7 and/or32gb of ram. We’re on the 7430 platform and it’s usable, but I’ve had better tech experiences.

What are the actual needs? What types of programs are people using? How much multi-tasking? Are there needs for docks/peripherals? What type of monitors are you using? That all factors in.

Got it. Thanks

Hey All,
I finished a third round interview, and HR contacted me that afternoon saying I had positive feedback across the board and they would contact me the next day regarding next steps. It’s been two days and they finally get back to me saying they haven’t been able to sync with the hiring manager but will keep me posted. Honestly I wish they would talk with the hiring manager and then let me know the decision instead of checking in. It’s messing with my emotions.
