Thinkpads.
Or in general any business laptop, like HP Elitebook or Dell Presicion.
But they are not cheap at all haha
If you want performace get a desktop!

Or a MacBook, which is part OP's point. Apple is delivering quality at price points that Windows OEMs aren't (which is sort of the opposite of the phone world).
8gb of ram is not performance.
Maybe I am in the minority but MacOS always feels so bloated and heavy to me.
Never used an 8GB Mac I see.
A decked out Mac mini is actually a beast for its size
Thinkpads are tanks, but most of the time you’d be perfectly well served by a BMW series 3.
Ts-series are nice and slim. X1 too.
Only P-series are workstations.
I meant for build quality.
The experience I have had with Thinkpads, both current-gen and old during my childhood, did not warm me up to the line. They are not particularly better in feel, thermals and screen quality against its cheaper alternatives including those from Lenovo themselves. The only good thing was its keyboard, but then most Lenovo laptops in general have good keyboards. Its popular acclaim is weird to me.
