Hello and welcome to WhichLaptop, today we’ll be showing you the best laptops for ArcGIS or any other GIS software in 2021!

It’s crucial to find a laptop that offers great performance when using any GIS software as you don’t want to come across lag which will stop you completing critical work.

With that in mind I’ve compiled the 3 best laptops for you to use after hours of research and performance testing, I only recommend products that I believe in!

Links to all the products will be in the description below.

My first pick is the Asus ZENBOOK 13.

Designed for effortless portability, the laptop is just 0.5” thin and less than 2.5lbs light, with a slim-bezel NanoEdge display that makes it much more compact than a typical 13-inch laptop.

It comes with a specially designed 50Wh lithium-polymer battery that gives up to 14 hours of autonomy, with fast-charge technology that takes just 49 minutes to recharge to 60% capacity.

It features an 8th gen intel CPU and a 256GB SSD for those incredibly fast load times!

My next pick is the Apple Macbook Pro 15” and it’s the newest 2020 model featuring Apple’s M1 chip.

It’s no surprise that Apple was to be in this list as they provide some of the best devices for professionals. They’re designed and built for convenience, and this is nothing short of that.

The Macbook Pro features the new M1 chip which performs brilliantly, allowing various software to run effortlessly.

It has a beautiful retina display which will provide unparalleled viewing experience. The touch bar that features at the top of the device is its unique selling point for me. It allows you to switch between applications or tabs with the press of a single button.

With 512GB of storage, you’ll never have to worry about having to carry an external drive with you.

To top it off, the Macbook Pro now has the longest battery life ever seen in a macbook – now up to 20 hours of continuous use.

And my final pick for if you’re not a fan of Mac’s but want something with the same kick – the Huawei Matebook x PRO.

It comes with similar build quality as the Macbook pro we just mentioned but at a fraction of the price.

It packs an 8th Gen Intel i7 CPU, 16GB RAM, a NVIDIA MX150 and a 512GB SSD.

One of its unique selling points is the one-touch power button which allows you to login to your laptop in a matter of seconds, powered through the 512GB SSD included. This allows you to get right into your work in seconds!

With 15 hours of battery life, you’ll be safe knowing that you can trust the portability of the device.

So there you have it guys, our 3 recommendations for the best laptops for ArcGIS and other GIS software in 2021. Please check out the links to these fantastic products down below!

    ArcGIS doesn’t run on macOS, I’m not sure if any GIS platform would run on M1 MacBooks
