Using your laptop in cold temperatures

Actually, I want to know if it is safe to use a laptop outside at temperatures close to zero?

yes, if the humidity outside is low. for example in the desert.
the computers also had a cold bug somewhere from 0 + 10, but on u5-u7 it seems to be cured.
I somehow, for the sake of interest, brought the laptop out to the balcony where it was about -20-30, but it was turned on, as it were, in the apartment.

I read that at temperatures below +20 the hard drive degrades as quickly as when it overheats above 50, even faster.

Well, it discharges faster, probably because there is a science of thermodynamics, and there energy is always divided by temperature.

And sometimes you can open a window in winter and leave a laptop next to it for 5 minutes. The percent will start from a temperature of 25 degrees with the usual 55.
