I'm matriculating this coming Fall, and am looking to purchase a new laptop. Does anyone have recommendations on what the best options are?

I think it's best to buy a macbook for study. ;)

How satisfied are the people who bought 2-in-1 laptops. Looking at surface book 2, not sure if its worth VS buying a good Lenovo + Ipad. Will appreciate the insight.

I've kind of narrowed my choices down to the following:
- Lenovo X1 Yoga (3rd gen.): good 2-in-1 option if you decide to go down that route, amazing keyboard experience, 14" touch screen which is slightly bigger than typical notebooks, VERY expensive though;
- Lenovo X1 Carbon (6th gen.): same as Yoga, but not 2-in-1.
- Dell XPS 13 9380: available in Full HD (non-touch) and 4k touch versions, very sleek and light, but I'm personally not a huge Dell fan;
- Dell Latitude 7490: your typical business laptop, super reliable and sturdy.

To me these seem like the best business laptops on the market, so I suggest looking into them. Personally I will likely go with Lenovo Carbon.

First of all, you will have to decide what type of work are you going to do in a laptop and how much power will it need to get completed without worries. After that, if you have a good budget, you should go with the best option you can opt for your spendings. As per my personal opinion, you should prioritize weight and battery-life in your business laptop along with performance. I recommend a light-weight and higher battery life laptop. And if you are to travel a lot, opt for 13-inch instead of 15-inch. Thanks.
