    Finally found the perfect laptop! Razer Blade

    Finally found the perfect laptop! Razer Blade

    Posted: 25 Aug 2019 12:25 AM PDT

    I changed 3 different laptops over the course of a month. Initially I started off with the HP OMEN i7 9th gen with a 1660ti and 16gb ram. I enjoyed it, but not until in a classroom environment. By all means it was the perfect laptop. For the price that was paid, it couldn't go wrong but for a classroom/office laptop it is too loud. Among every hp omen model there have been loud fan issues. I went and got a Mac book pro for the first time, enjoyed it for the week I had it. Loved the Touch Bar functionality and the sleek and light design but being a windows user my whole life and knowing I paid a hefty amount for not even top notch specs It didn't feel too good. I got the i7 9th gen MacBook Pro. Eventually returned my MacBook pro to Best Buy and purchased a razer blade 15, i7 9th gen with 2060. Its sleek and is similar in weight to the MacBook Pro. I enjoy it a lot and I plan on upgrading it from 516gb to 1tb and 16gb ram to 32gb. The razer blade is an easy upgrade laptop.

    Sorry for the layout, I'm on mobile.

    Looking for a discreet gaming/general use laptop (1000- 1700 USD)

    Posted: 24 Aug 2019 11:33 PM PDT

    Hello guys, my first post here. After having a Dell Laptop for 6 years, I would like to get a new laptop. I would like to have a good performance laptop for playing games, but also for general use.

    So it shouldn't be the typical heavy gamer laptop, that does scream gamer.

    Here are the requierments:

    • **Total budget and country of purchase: 1000- 1700 USD

    EU, but I am also fine to order the laptop online in the US

    • **Do you prefer a 2 in 1 form factor, good battery life or best specifications for the money?

    Dont want a 2 in 1 device, best specifications for the money

    • **How important is weight and thinness to you?

    Something not too heavy and not to thick.

    • **Which OS do you require? Windows, Mac, Chrome OS, Linux.

    Windows

    • **Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A.

    Not too big, not too small

    • **Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming?

    Laptop is mainly for gaming and general use

    • **If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want?

    No specific games in mind, just want to be able to play new games on good settings

    • Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)?

    A nice design would be good, a laptop that doesn't scream gamer PC

    Is XPS overrated?

    Posted: 24 Aug 2019 06:32 PM PDT

    I always see people saying the XPS line is the best laptop.

    A XPS 15 priced at $1011.99 will get you i5 9th gen, 8gb RAM, and 256gb SSD. Not very impressive for something at that price point. For an even cheaper price, you could get something like an hp Spectre with i7 8th gen (which is still better than the i5) , 16 GB ram, and more SSD. Some other laptops could switch for a Nvidia gpu in expense for some SSD sizes.

    I know the infinity edge is nice, but it's not +300 worth more... And the build quality and battery are just decent. Any explanations?

    £1000 Gaming Laptop, all about performance, UK

    Posted: 25 Aug 2019 03:50 AM PDT

    • Total budget and country of purchase: Around £1000, England, cheaper the better obviously
    • Do you prefer a 2 in 1 form factor, good battery life or best specifications for the money? Pick or include any that apply. My main focus is gaming, so the best specs/performance possible is my main goal
    • How important is weight and thinness to you? Not too bothered about size or weight
    • Which OS do you require? Windows, Mac, Chrome OS, Linux. Windows 10
    • Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A. I'd probably say 15", could go a bit larger
    • Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run. This laptop will be 90% for gaming away from home, mainly CS:GO and WoW, won't be playing to many triple A's (maybe every now and then), however WoW can be situationally fairly demanding sometimes, so would be nice to be able to play it smoothly.
    • If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want? As stated above CS:GO/WoW, CS:GO should be a none issue but WoW would be nice at 60+ FPS, hopefully no less than say 30 in demanding situations.
    • Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)? Would like to to be built to last, so decent build quality. I've never liked the feel of laptop keyboards (to be fair I've only ever used others peoples cheap laptops before), been a PC gamer for 15 years. So if theres a keyboard that comes close to feeling like a PC one that would be ace.
    • Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion. Would want an SSD, preferably 256 GB however could settle for a 128gb. I couldn't care less how a laptop looks, it's all about performance for me, the best bang for the buck for gaming. Want something thats built to last and won't have to replace in 2 years time. Never bought a laptop before, always been a PC gamer, been having a look around but theres so many brands and choices I've utterly confused myself. Been looking at some 1050 GFX card models but thought I'd come here for some advice to see if theres anything I'm missing.

    Thanks in advance for any advice, have a lovely day!

    Budget laptop for office work and *maybe* a bit of gaming.

    Posted: 25 Aug 2019 03:37 AM PDT

    A friend asked me for recommendations, but laptops aren't my strenght. What she asked for: Something for normal office work that can run some games, isn't slow, with numeric keypad, and as lightweight as possible

    • Total budget and country of purchase:

    $500

    • Do you prefer a 2 in 1 form factor, good battery life or best specifications for the money? Pick or include any that apply.

    Best specs.

    • How important is weight and thinness to you?

    Weight matters.

    • Which OS do you require? Windows, Mac, Chrome OS, Linux.

    Probably Windows since that's what she's used to, but if there's a considerably better Linux option with something friendly for a Windows user (Mint with Cinnamon or similar), I think I could convince her to get that.

    • Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A.

    Her current one is 15,6'', so anything at that size or better will do.

    • Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run.

    She asked for something that "can run some games". That said, I feel like it's too much to ask for for this budget and I can explain her that if the only decent options are things with the usual UHD 620.

    • If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want?

    She mostly plays Diablo II and older stuff that can run on integrated graphics. I think she wanted to try Path of Exile, tho, which would probably require at least a low end dedicated card.

    • Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)?

    Numeric keypad.

    • Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion.

    She's replacing her old one because it's slow, so something that allows for a natural workflow without constant freezing and lag is a must. She will use external and cloud storage, so disk capacity doesn't matter. Having an SSD for the OS would be a nice plus.

    This is what I've liked the best so far.

    Thank you in advance.

    ThinkPad L380 or Surface Laptop 2 for coding?

    Posted: 25 Aug 2019 03:36 AM PDT

    I'm looking for a laptop to use exclusively for coding and related school work. I don't need much as far as specs go, and my biggest selling point will be the keyboard and screen. In theory I've narrowed the search down to two contenders, but I have no hands on experience with either model. I was hoping that some of you might have that experience and be willing to give me some opinions.

    The two laptops I'm looking at are the Lenovo ThinkPad L380 and the Microsoft Surface Laptop 2. As far as I can tell these laptops are almost identical from a specs perspective. I know they'll both cut it from a performance standpoint, but I'm not really sure which feels and looks better. If I had the ability to get my hands on either model I would, unfortunately I do not have that luxury. I have heard time and time again that ThinkPad's have some of the best, if not the best, keyboards on the market. The choice seemed easy until I watched a few reviews for the Surface Laptop 2 in which it was also heralded as having the best keyboard currently on the market. My gut tells me that the Surface has a better display, but I could be wrong. The Yoga feature of the ThinkPad doesn't matter to me.

    Does anyone have any personal experience with either of these laptops? Anyone had the chance to use both maybe? Just looking for some opinions.

    Looking something to replace DELL Vostro 2520.

    Posted: 25 Aug 2019 03:14 AM PDT

    I bought my laptop six years ago. It has been working fine since then. I got it serviced thrice, got one or two parts replaced, but overall, it served me fine. Now, it has started hanging. I got it serviced, formatted, installed the windows and ms office again...and still hangs up randomly. I was not planning to spend money on a laptop right now but my living depends on it. I have already spent INR 2,500 on it. Can someone suggest me a laptop that is cheap and can give me as much value as the current one I own?

    * **Total budget and country of the purchase:**

    -INR 40,000, India

    * **Do you prefer a 2 in 1 form factor, good battery life or best specifications for the money? Pick or include any that apply.**

    * **Any specific requirements such as a good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)?**

    Would this Razer Blade be okay for graphic design/photo and video editing?

    Posted: 25 Aug 2019 03:04 AM PDT

    13.3" Razer Blade Stealth, Black, UHD+, IGZO, i7 8550U, 16GB LPDDR3, 256GB NVMe SSD, Intel UHD Graphics 620, TB3, Win10

    It seem good to me, but to be honest I have no idea what I'm talking about.

    Laptop for everyday use + light gaming: ~1200 euros

    Posted: 25 Aug 2019 02:46 AM PDT

    • Total budget and country of purchase: ~1200 euros, Spain

    • Do you prefer a 2 in 1 form factor, good battery life or best specifications for the money? Pick or include any that apply. No preferences, the laptop will be connected to an external monitor, a power supply and a bluetooth keyboard/mouse most of the time (it needs at least 2 USB 2.0/3.0 ports + HDMI port). I would prefer a small and thin laptop for when I have to move it around. Above all else I want the experience to be fast and with minimal loading for every day use (chrome, youtube, discord, moving files around) so an SSD is a must.

    • How important is weight and thinness to you? Not too important, but the thinner and lighter, the better.

    • Which OS do you require? Windows, Mac, Chrome OS, Linux. Windows 10

    • Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A. 13"-15"

    • Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run.

    I am a Java Programmer so I might need to use Eclipse or Virtual Machines. I might want to dabble in Game Development (mostly Unity) in the future.

    I won't play games too often on the laptop anymore (planning on getting the new Stadia). I'd like to be able to use Android Emulator (Bluestacks) and maybe play MMOs like WoW or FF14 now and then.

    • If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want? World of Warcraft or Final Fantasy XIV, medium-high/30-60fps.

    • Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)? A good keyboard would be nice for when I take the laptop somewhere else.

    • Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion. As I said before, above all else I want the experience to be fast and with minimal hiccups (good SSD/CPU).

    Low noise laptop with a good display

    Posted: 25 Aug 2019 01:42 AM PDT

    I need a new laptop for school and maybe light photo editing. My priorities are a good display and graphics and no noise ( fan isn't on if I only use 1 or 2 tabs on the browser or when idle and fan doesn't get so loud that I still hear it when watching Netflix on max volume) I have made bad experiences with hp laptops (Pavilion) so I want to avoid that in the future. Max budget is 1000€, country: germany, ram: at least 8GB, Nvidia graphic card would be nice but not a must since I know they can get noisy, os: windows or Linux, size : 13-15 inch

    My sister is looking for a new laptop for university and light gaming. Preferably 13.3" screen and up to $700 USD.

    Posted: 25 Aug 2019 12:14 AM PDT

    My own recommendations are no longer available for purchase, so I'm turning to the Reddit hive mind for advice.

    • Total budget and country of purchase: $700 (United States)

    • Do you prefer a 2 in 1 form factor, good battery life or best specifications for the money? Pick or include any that apply. Battery life is the most important, but best specs for money is good too

    • How important is weight and thinness to you? Extremely important - preferably Apple Macbook Air weight/dimensions

    • Which OS do you require? Windows, Mac, Chrome OS, Linux. Windows

    • Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A. 13.3" diagonal to minimize weight, otherwise N/A

    • Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run. Light/casual gaming + school stuff (web browsers, office programs)

    • If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want? Minecraft at 1080p60, possibly Apex Legends at something close to 60 FPS (not a priority though)

    • Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)? MUST have a AMD Ryzen APU if there is no dedicated GPU. Must have an SSD greater than 128 GB, form factor not important). Must have 8 GB or more of RAM (speed not important). Good reliability and thermals are a plus (my previous recommendations didn't seem too well built).

    • Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion. I found this laptop that seems to match my sister's requirements, is it any good?

    • Total budget and country of purchase: Hopefully between 400-800 USA

    • Do you prefer a 2 in 1 form factor, good battery life or best specifications for the money? Pick or include any that apply. 2 in 1 Form with decent battery. I'm okay with sacrificing a little bit of performance

    • How important is weight and thinness to you? Preferably below 3.5 pounds. Definitely less than 4 pounds. (Does this exist?)

    • Which OS do you require? Windows, Mac, Chrome OS, Linux. Windows

    • Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A. N/A

    • Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run. EE software such as MATLAB, Simulink, Multisim, CAD. I mainly would like to play Mabinogi or other MMO games. I heard it wasn't hard to meet Mabinogi's recommended specs but I'm not sure with a 2 in 1. https://mabinogi.nexon.net/Support/ClientDrivers

    • If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want? Mabinogi's FPS drops regardless. For other MMOs preferably 30-60 FPS on low-medium settings.

    • Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)? Reliable build quality

    • Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion. Pretty much just looking for a 2 in 1 laptop that can use some engineering software and run Mabinogi without being too heavy.

    Need help replacing broken 1 year old dead surface pro 5. $1500 (cad) max

    Posted: 24 Aug 2019 09:41 PM PDT

    • Total budget and country of purchase:

    $1500 Canadian ( less would be nice but want something that doesn't suck)

    • Do you prefer a 2 in 1 form factor, good battery life or best specifications for the money? Pick or include any that apply.

    Minimal bezels are ideal, but I also want something decent. i7 is nice but will settle for i5 if needed be

    • How important is weight and thinness to you?

    Ultrabook is more in line with what I'm looking for. I don't want a 10 pound laptop.

    • Which OS do you require? Windows, Mac, Chrome OS, Linux.

    Windows

    • Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A.

    13+

    • Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run.

    Gaming would be nice, however I am realistic and don't expect too much

    • If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want?

    Not necessarily applicable

    • Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)?

    I want something that isn't going to self destruct on me. I spent 1500ish on a surface and after warranty expired it died. Trying to avoid that happen again lol

    Looking at matebook, new Dell XPS 13, new Dell XPS 13 2 in 1 ( honestly, its what I want, but the price to spec ratio is pushing it) and Asus zenbook (trackpad with the screen seems nice but I fear it is another failure point lol) I'm not set on any brand, I just want something that looks nice with minimal bezel and doesn't crap out on me.

    Help narrowing down ultrabooks

    Posted: 24 Aug 2019 07:42 PM PDT

    Heya, I made a post a bit back about laptops I was interested in. I've done a lot of research and narrowed it down to six. I'm going to check them out in person soon but I'd still like some feedback from y'all to really push me in one direction or the other. For context I'm looking at ultrabooks that are light and can handle many applications/games such as Minecraft servers. I also really want a laptop with high nits of brightness or generally one that I can use in sunny environments. Also I don't really want to spend more than $1300 but if for some reason I should I'll think about it.

    Also I really don't know what to think about the ergolift thing a lot of these laptops are flexing, I guess I'll have to see how they work out in real life.

    Laptop #1: Dell XPS 13 Pros: Great quality, bright display, thunderbolt 3 for potential eGPU, great looking. Cons: doesn't have a discrete graphics card, bit of a turn off.

    Laptop #2: Asus Zenbook S13 Pros: Good design, light, actual graphics card, bright display. Cons: Lacks thunderbolt 3, is honestly really expensive

    Laptop #3: Asus Zenbook 14 Pros: good performance, good build quality, good value. Cons: No thunderbolt 3, screen not the brightest

    Laptop #4: HP Envy 13t Pros: Excellent value, decent quality Cons: Display could be better, no thunderbolt 3

    Laptop #5: MSI Prestige PS42 Pros: Best specs out of the bunch and manages to stay lightweight, decent looking, good value Cons: Build quality supposedly eh, keyboard supposedly weird, no thunderbolt 3

    Laptop #6: Asus Zenbook Flip 14 Pros: 2in1, good value, quality pretty good Cons: Heavier, no thunderbolt 3

    Looking for a 17 inch laptop (up to $2,000)

    Posted: 24 Aug 2019 07:36 PM PDT

    • Total budget and country of purchase: 1.3-2.3k budget. USA.

    • Do you prefer a 2 in 1 form factor, good battery life or best specifications for the money? Pick or include any that apply. I am not looking for 2 in 1. In terms of battery life and best specs it's close as I value both pretty evenly.

    • How important is weight and thinness to you? Weight is not that important. I don't want it too thick but it doesn't have to be super slim either

    • Which OS do you require? Windows, Mac, Chrome OS, Linux. Windows

    • Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A. 17 inch

    • Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run. None of these. Maybe very light gaming but nothing crazy to warrant it being a "gaming laptop"

    • Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)? I want it to be a good build. Also reliable and long-lasting. I will be watching a lot of movies and sports, so something with great display resolution would be a plus. Battery life is also a plus obviously. Looking for SSD too.

    • Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion. It's a general purpose laptop (no gaming or anything like that). Mainly just browsing the web and watching shows and stuff.

    College Student Looking for portability and good battery Life; $800 US

    Posted: 24 Aug 2019 07:30 PM PDT

    • Total budget and country of purchase: Prefer to stay under $800; United States

    • Do you prefer a 2 in 1 form factor, good battery life or best specifications for the money? Pick or include any that apply. Would prefer to have a good battery life and compromise on performance a little. Doesn't matter if it is a 2 in 1.

    • How important is weight and thinness to you? Weight and thinness is a priority as I will be using this laptop for college, and don't want to be lugging around a 5lb gaming laptop and it's charger all the time.

    • Which OS do you require? Windows, Mac, Chrome OS, Linux. Windows, will dual boot linux.

    • Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A. N/A

    • Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run. Maybe light games sometimes (Overwatch and CSGO), but not a priority.

    • If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want? CSGO and Overwatch occasionally if I have time. 60 fps low settings.

    • Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)? Upgradability is something I want, for both ram and ssd. Don't want it to be super flimsy, but can be average in these categories, such as the keyboard and touch pad.

    • Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion. I put some light gaming, but its not a priority. If I can get something that has better battery life and portability, then I would prefer that to something more powerful. I was looking at the Acer Swift 3, but it looks like the ram is solders so I'm looking for things that may be similar, but also upgradable. The reason I want this is because I heard that 16 gb of ram is recommended for computer science. So I would either want to buy a laptop with 16 gb of ram or find one that is upgradable. Thanks in advance!
