The industry is a giant that takes small steps every few years and disposes of ideas as soon as they apply. On the desktop PC there are features to determine how, from a corporate standpoint, the keys and dividers compared to the bookstore industry: values.
Why does the writing industry have so few standards?
Perhaps the most relevant question, before beginning our argument, is why industry standards matter? The standard defines how much concrete should be constructed, specifying the methods, dimensions, various functions, pins and even weight in many cases.
The notes industry has been debating them when it comes to building their systems and this is reflected in the price.
As a rule, no generation of laptops is as good as the inside, not 100% at least (there are instances where the internal design is used more than once), so, this results in R&D for each processor and graphics cards, as well as screens, keyboard types or cooling systems.
In response to the topic, the industry has a few levels because, simply and inexpensively. And you do not want a large number of levels because of a major problem you are experiencing: miniaturization of the elements. It's also a problem that happens in smartphones, where each manufacturer designs their phone and there are a few levels that control it.
Miniaturization and refrigeration are a major problem
Processors, graphics cards, storage, screens and various chips never stop improving, but the limits remain the same: size and temperature. Such a laptop should be light as possible, portable, do not overeat Having enough autonomy in your battery too, don't get too hot.
This collection of ideas and ideas is the exact opposite of values. If each generation has different resources available, creating a standard build standard, for example boards, requires a series of parameters that will simplify the concept, but on the other hand will affect their cooling and, hopefully, can increase the size and weight of the product.
This at the same time will limit the design of manufacturers, so the options will be very limited for users. And we're talking about machines that in terms of cubic capacity do not reach cubic liters, which shows that in today's laptops everything is measured in millimeters to take advantage of each available space.
Disappointed with pieces, real or fiction?
The industry doesn't agree because when we talk about laptops everyone wants to appear in front of their rivals and think that the norm can be disastrous for the same industry, especially because of the labor-intensive manufacturing techniques.
Creating standards for motherboards, processors, graphics cards and trimming systems can disrupt sales if there is no solution that fits everyone's needs. The user wants his laptop to be more powerful, cool, more autonomous and lightweight, considering that these users will prefer the purchase of a laptop with any of these points in the negative to be more optimistic.
It's like thinking that users will buy mobiles / smartphones with extra weight, size and less independence because they are upgraded to a greater or lesser degree.
So also knowing that the industry is doing well in terms of sales and that the coming years are precisely predicting a huge increase compared to desktop computers, no builder thinks of the standards that allow for pieces.
Especially when we consider that this has a direct impact on their income, because even though they save on R&D, most of the components will not be their own but from third parties and this would be equivalent to lowering prices to compete, which is a reasonable thing. interests, because they are competing directly for innovation and R&D right now (motherboards, cooling, keyboard, internal wiring and design).
This light is very clear, just like smartphones, laptops will not be made at house standards and by the parts that are considered a desktop PC.
Personalization, innovation and creativity become more intertwined to create an ecosystem that is exactly the same as what Apple currently has, because competition and the market will push the product with less sales, as it already has.
Laptops, an option to consider?
Conventional laptops are a way that you don't get too much pressure on the market. They do not concern themselves with the components to be used, but rather improved provides the manufacturer to one or several of its products, in order to optimize performance or derive features based on removable modules.
These are standard modules within the product itself and with this we can change or update small features, such as study units, Wi-Fi cards, batteries and much more.
In the meantime, they do not represent the expanding sector, either because of ignorance, perhaps because it doesn't matter or perhaps because the user chooses to acquire the new tool directly rather than update the modules.
In any case, they are mid-range options that some users may find very useful.
