Ask HN: What does one look for in a laptop these days?

I'd like to understand if I'm missing on any new developments since 2015 or so. Here's what I'd like to have:<p>*. Goes: preference and alternative, deal-breakers:<p>1. SIM preferable, WiFi acceptible, but Bluetooth has to be good<p>2. Spill and dust resistant keyboard that doesn't feel like typing on nothing<p>3. Trackpoint or trackpad, that works<p>4. Stylus or touch-screen that doesn't glare<p>5. Good power management, lasts through the day, done charging in 2.5 hours<p>6. Runs the hacky-mac or Slax, has a head-set jack<p>7. Good GPU, fast storage, two fast external storage ports<p>From my understanding I fit a kind of profile, and am very much not alone. But I'd like to know what the HN crowd take on this is.
