Mobility
This rating shows our evaluation of the portability factor based on chassis dimensions and weight (notebook and power supply).
Your actual portability requirement depends on your usage profile: If you rarely carry your TUXEDO over longer distances, »desktop replacement notebooks« (mobility score: ~50%) offer the best balance of portability and cooling for quieter and more pleasant fan acoustics or higher performance compared to thinner and lighter devices.
If you regularly carry your TUXEDO over longer distances at a stretch, we recommend a lighter total weight of 2.5 to 2.8 kg (incl. power supply; mobility score: ~70 %) - of course at the expense of performance and/or fan noise.
If performance (and possibly fan noise comfort) plays a very minor role and your TUXEDO should act as constant companion more time under your arm or in your bag than on your desk, a very light Linux notebook (less than 1.8 kg; mobility: 80% or higher) is a good choice.
Rating table:
| Mobility requirement | Recommendation |
|---|---|
| You primarily carry your TUXEDO over short distances or by car | |
| You regularly carry your TUXEDO over medium distances on foot | |
| Your TUXEDO spends more time in your bag than on your desk | |
| "I have my TUXEDO with me? Ah, right! Almost forgot about it." |
