    The purpose of 17" laptops is for people who, despite not carrying the laptop around all day for use on the go (as the 13" and 15" crowd typically does), still frequently need to transport their PC from location A to location B or C even if on a weekly basis or monthly basis. You basically put it in a case, shove it in the trunk of your car, and take it with you to spend a few days on the other location and then come back after a few days with it. This is the actual concept of a desktop replacement laptop. If laptops were not to be moved from home at all, then a laptop makes no sense and you should get a desktop, otherwise you get only disadvantages and none of the portability advantages that come with laptops. The sole reason for 13" laptops is for people who can’t stand the weight/size of a 15" laptop. And the reason for 15" laptop is for people who can’t stand the 13"’s small screen/keyboard of 13 inch for productivity. The 17" is for people who are not ready to make any concessions as far screen experience goes when going portable and who are willing to bear the extra weight/size – but this usually means that you’re not lugging it around all day in a bag or backpack (that is mostly 13" and 15" territory)

    This video is outdated. Now there are powerful laptops with smaller screen, big screen laptops which has narrow bezels and thin body .

    How would you choose between the LG Gram 16" versus the LG Gram 17" when they are so similar and yet LG believes there will be people choosing the 16" over the 17" when they already have the 15.6".



  11. Doug Ogle on February 13, 2022 at 10:52 pm

    What game is that at 3:13?



  12. Hank Moody on February 13, 2022 at 10:53 pm

    i want the 17. i’ve been on a 13 for years and it’s tiny



  13. Ty Man on February 13, 2022 at 10:55 pm

    a 17 inch razer blade mightve beem a better laptop to review for the decision of the 17, that thing you had was like a suitcase



  14. ms joitson on February 13, 2022 at 10:55 pm

    Is 13 Inch laptops is good for computer engineering students



  15. Niko Kourouklis on February 13, 2022 at 10:56 pm

    Did you forget about 18 inch laptops? They exist(ed)…



  16. Shin Chan Gaming on February 13, 2022 at 10:56 pm

    15 is the better one



  17. Gecmisini Seven Adam on February 13, 2022 at 10:57 pm

    Right now I use my 4 year old office laptop HP elitebook 840 G4 that i bought for my study. I’m graduated for my study IT, but study now higher. My laptop has a 14" screen. Really difficult to multitask and see the letters some times. I think İ am going for a 17 inch gaming laptop that İ can use for school and gaming.



  18. Samarth Sharma on February 13, 2022 at 10:58 pm

    For gaming what would you prefer a 15 inch Or 17 inch.
    BTW nice video:)



  19. Mr Brad on February 13, 2022 at 10:58 pm

    I agree that 100% scaling on a 1080p 15.6" laptop.. 125% is recommended but you lose to much screen real-estate and 100% is fine on a 15.6" with my 39 year old eyes



  20. Thetuckster on February 13, 2022 at 10:59 pm

    I have a 15.9 could not get a better one big for watching YouTube and easy to carry



  21. Dyl Apple on February 13, 2022 at 11:00 pm

    i like 13inches best because they are portable, but i would also like to have a bigger one too just in case im in a situation where portability isnt an issue



  22. Through the Telescope! on February 13, 2022 at 11:01 pm

    Nah I still like the 17!



  23. layzy24 on February 13, 2022 at 11:01 pm

  24. Saffire Channing on February 13, 2022 at 11:02 pm

    I own two HP laptops—-a Windows 10(Stream) and a HP Chromebook. Both my laptops are 14 inch models.



  25. Rafael Delgado on February 13, 2022 at 11:03 pm

    If you like watching movies go for a 17 inch I got a g15 zephyrus it’s amazing but I’m gonna return and upgrade, my 17r4 gtx 1070 1440p was way better for movies but it sucked in comparison at gaming hard.



  26. abcdeisthekey on February 13, 2022 at 11:04 pm

    This doesn’t seem like a good comparison using such different laptops



  27. Pay The BOSS on February 13, 2022 at 11:05 pm

    Can you please make an update video with the nice new narrow bezels we have these days



  28. ArthropodSpidey on February 13, 2022 at 11:06 pm

    13 inch is just too small.



  29. has on February 13, 2022 at 11:07 pm

  33. Coinraker on February 13, 2022 at 11:12 pm

    I rarely carry my laptop around anywhere, just like sitting in a comfortable chair with it in my "lap". Have a 15", thinking about getting 17".

  36. CoasterMan13 Official on February 13, 2022 at 11:19 pm

    For portability, 14 inches.
    For a good gaming machine, 15 inches.
    For a good editing machine, 17 inches.



  37. jawad telleih on February 13, 2022 at 11:20 pm

    I’m really confused between choosing a new macbook air 13 inch with m1 chip and a hp envy x360 15 inches with AMD Ryzen 5/7 4000 series processor. Can you help me out with this dilemma??



  39. Chustaka on February 13, 2022 at 11:20 pm

    I wouldn’t mind my laptop to be larger and heavier (17.3") if what I get in return is a bigger display and more powerful hardware.



  40. mrstinkypickle on February 13, 2022 at 11:21 pm

  41. Marika on February 13, 2022 at 11:21 pm

    It seems to me the 13 inch is the best for typing.



  42. Jaleb Jaba on February 13, 2022 at 11:22 pm
