Mac vs Surface vs Chromebook

In the last 15 years I have only used the laptop issued by the organizations I worked with (MacBook all through). Given a lot of scrutiny and snooping by employers on devices issued by them (they have all the right to do so, not questioning that), I’m planning to purchase one for my personal use. I’m out of touch with the gadget news, so looking for some suggestions on which one to go for - MacBook, Surface, Chromebook.

I don’t use any OS specific apps - all the work I do is on cloud apps.

Looking for something that I can use for next 7 years at least, without any worry about performance degradation.

Nothing comes close to the Mac's build quality and OS stability.

Once you start using a MacBook for dev work, it's very very hard to go back to a windows system.

Good Laptop suggestion

Hello folks 👋

I want to buy a laptop for personal usage. I will be using it mostly for media consumption and web dev.

I have had a very bad experience with windows laptops in terms of hardware and battery life after a year of usage....
