Schenker Connect 15 Enterprise Laptop Launch Featuring Field Serviceability Replaceable Battery and Extensive Mobile Connectivity Options
Schenker has officially expanded its enterprise portfolio with the April 16, 2026 launch of the Connect 15. The device enters a crowded mid range office market by eschewing the trend of glued in components in favor of a 55 Wh battery that users can replace without specialized tools. The design choice demonstrates dedication to producing products that maintain their value through extended usage which has become uncommon in contemporary laptop design.
The machine uses Intel's Core 5 120U processor as its main processing unit which operates with 8GB of RAM and a 500GB hard drive. The 15.6 inch IPS display produces visual output with a 1920x1080 resolution at 60 Hz refresh rate. The panel achieves maximum brightness at 400 cd/m² while reaching 90% of the sRGB color range, which enables it to provide accurate color reproduction and adequate brightness for normal office use.
The main focus of the Connect 15 design process centers on its ability to establish network connections. Schenker offers an optional LTE modem which enables users to access mobile networks without relying on public routers or phone tethering in addition to current standards which include Wi Fi 7 and Bluetooth 5.4. The I/O selection is extensive because it includes a Gigabit Ethernet port together with a SmartCard reader and a microSD slot.
The system supports various devices through its Thunderbolt 4 port and HDMI 1.4b output plus multiple USB interface options which include USB 2.0 and USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type C and USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type A.
The Connect 15 system received a complete power management transformation. The unit comes with a 45 watt power supply while the internal system can handle USB Power Delivery up to 65 watts. The use of a higher wattage PD charger results in charging cycles that occur at a faster rate compared to the stock adapter. The laptop includes a 1080p webcam which supports video conferencing needs while its hardware components create a complete system designed for business work and remote work operations.
The base price for the Connect 15 starts at €999. At the point of sale, buyers can choose to customize the device with the LTE modem module priced at €79 and the Secured Core security suite available for a €29 activation fee.
