The milled aluminum laptop chassis deserves most of the credit for the build quality of Macbooks. With it, Macbooks easily last 10 years. I've never seen a similar quality chassis in any Windows or Chromebook laptop. Consequently, they last ~3 years.

Amount of laptops I had to throw away because the chassis broke in 20 years: 0

Amount of devices (laptops, phones, watched) where I had to switch out a battery that died: 5-10
