Need a laptop with a full-size keyboard

[cclayton]

I've had an HP Envy 360 17.5 for a few years and it's dying. I bought a Lenova Ideapad 1 15". It's keyboard is a bit smaller and the layout is different. I do a lot of typing and need a new laptop with a good, spacious keyboard. The Lenova is not it.

Recommendations?

Do you need a number pad, or just comfortable keys?

There are a few brands and models with good keyboards. I'd point to the Apple MacBook Pro (particularly the 14- and 16-inch models), Dell XPS 15, some Lenovo ThinkPads (like the X1 Carbon) and Samsung's Galaxy Book 2 line.

Particularly when it comes to the Thinkpad series, Lenovo's laptops feature some of the nicest keyboards available. The keys seem more "clicky" and have more travel than those on rival notebooks, such as the XPS 13 or any of the MacBooks, making them excellent for typing.
