15 Inch Laptops

Yes, it's the most popular size for a reason. A 15 inch laptop is large enough to be used for serious productivity and creative work, but is still portable. At this size, gamers are well catered for - with a range of quality, fast and powerful machines to choose from.

A bigger display is beneficial for productivity and gaming. 15 inch displays can be both faster and clearer than smaller options. The main benefit will be where you'd like all the performance with at least some portability. Gaming machines in particular are very well represented with this screen size.

This isn't a rule necessarily, but you can find that some options are cheaper than their 14 inch equivalents. This is due to the 15.6 inch laptop being a more popular option than the same laptop in 14 inch. So, this would mean that 15 inch displays are manufactured in higher numbers when compared with 14 inch ones.

This, like a lot of choices, will be down to individual preference. For example, gamers might find the size on the smaller side of what they want! If you're using a laptop mainly for entertainment then you'll probably find it's a great size. For business related tasks, 15.6 inch laptops leave you with plenty of workspace. In addition, they pair up well with an external monitor due to the size and resolution.

As the most common size of laptop, 15" - 15.9" laptops often make the best gaming laptops. They're perfectly sized for living on a desk, but still small enough that they can be easily transported where required. Plus, the devices are big enough to fit some of the most powerful components, but slim enough to still look sleek and impressive. 15.6" is a great size for games, with enough room on screen to see everything you need to see, and enough choice of screen resolution and refresh rate to be very solid options for both casual and serious gamers.
