Does anyone here use Starlabs computers? I’m thinking of buying one of their laptops and I’m interested in how well their products are supported in the long term. Specifically, firmware updates and spare parts & repairs.

Thanks

    The Apple support window is pretty predictable. You get about seven years from device release to no os updates.

    It used to be that they didn’t talk about it and it was kind of a “he who has eyes, let him see” situation.

    Of course, we’re talking hardware here so that’s sort of neither here nor there.

    The enterprise dell experience is indeed very good all around. I’d even include hp in the pile if I had any experience with em. Their scopes used to be decent.

      They have done 4 year windows before, and we still cannot know for sure how long for example the macbook m1 will be supported, still.

      That said, 4-7 years for a laptop of that price seems short, I also don’t understand why they have to bring mobile OS support windows to laptops in the first place.

      When it comes to update support, it seems odd to me to recommend Apple’s computers when they literally have a mobile OS’ support window to the OS.
