| Need help with a birthday present Posted: 18 Sep 2021 09:18 PM PDT Total budget (in local currency) and country of purchase. Please do not use USD unless purchasing in the US: USD$1200 price flexible. I live in the US, but it's for someone in the UK Are you open to refurbs/used? Yeah How would you prioritize form factor (ultrabook, 2-in-1, etc.), build quality, performance, and battery life? Truthfully, I'm not 100% sure what this all means, but the battery life doesn't have to be phenomenal How important is weight and thinness to you? I'd say like max 5 lbs Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A. 14 or more inches Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run. Gaming, Sims 4, Civ VI. He's going to be watching lots of youtube and streamers on it as well If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want? Ideally max, but that's not super necessary Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)? Nah Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion. I'm purchasing it for my long-term boyfriend as a birthday gift. He's currently in England so I would need to be able to get him some kind of adapter for the power cable so it fits his outlets, any direction with that would be nice too. [link] [comments]  |

Would be great to have a low weight device for ease and portability Do you have a preferred screen size? nothing larger than 15" Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run. Mainly digital sketching in Photoshop, perhaps light 3D graphics work (this isn't important) If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want? Not for gaming Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)?

| US- Looking to buy a new laptop for around $800- $1200 Posted: 18 Sep 2021 06:43 PM PDT I'm looking to buy a new laptop for work (nothing crazy here mostly docs and excel) and for everyday use. I consume a lot of media so something with a nice screen and decent sound would be preferable (of course a long-lasting battery would be great). I'd like to do some light gaming (games like minecraft), but I have a next gen console so something that does heavy gaming probably isn't a necessity. I've tried finding a few options and these were the options that I thought would fit well: M1 MacBook Air HP Spectre x360 HP Envy x360 (with the specs I was planning to get it was close to other two in price) I've probably been giving the M1 the most consideration at the moment, but the biggest hurdle for me would be changing to a new OS that I'm not used to. Also, there's probably other laptops I missed, so please feel free to recommend anything you guys think is worth looking into. Thank you! [link] [comments]  |
| HP Laptop 14S-DQ2017NJ / 307Z3EA Posted: 19 Sep 2021 03:23 AM PDT should I buy the HP Laptop 14S-DQ2017NJ / 307Z3EA it has i5 11th gen and what about it biuild quality? take note its only for university use [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 19 Sep 2021 01:41 AM PDT (Got some laptops from small sellers in my area at the bottom, but can't tell if they fit my needs performance wise/if the different versions of the same product are worth investing more) LAPTOP QUESTIONNAIRE
Looking at small sellers in my area, they offer the laptops below. Are any of those suitable?
I heard ACER Nitro 5 is reliable but I can't tell if the difference in performance of the models offered is worth investing the +/-€200, depending on the model, for my needs. Any other brands or models that would be suitable? Thank you in andvance for the advice! [link] [comments]  |

| Engineering student ,and I love my movies. Budget~1200$ Posted: 18 Sep 2021 11:10 PM PDT Only SSD 512GB+ touchscreen is preferable The thinner the better Found this at 1150$, what do you guys think ? [link] [comments]  |
| Is a 60% sRGB display really that bad if you are not doing any creative work? Posted: 18 Sep 2021 05:55 AM PDT I would use the laptop for programming, browsing web, watching netflix, no photoshop or video editing. Would I really suffer from the 60% srgb display in your opinion? The laptop I'm thinking about is this Lenovo ideapad 5 (I can get it for €770). It looks really good to me, the only problem with it is that 60% srgb display. [link] [comments]  |
| Looking for advice on buying a new laptop from any big brand Posted: 18 Sep 2021 10:55 PM PDT Hi guys, I'm currently looking for a new laptop, I owned an Asus rig strix but I had a very bad experience with it so no Asus for me anymore. I've been looking at other brands, especially MSI, Lenovo and Acer. MSI is a bit more expensive that the other 2 brands here in my country, but some people have told me not to buy a laptop for gaming from any other brand of laptops that didn't start for gaming, their reasons is because they say these laptops are made to be disposable, unfixable and simply, not made in a good way. One or two of the people I asked also told me not to buy one with Ryzen but they didn't give me any reasons. So I'd like to know what you guys think about these brands (not any in concrete) or the gaming branch of these big companies that didn't start as a gaming brand [link] [comments]  |
| Looking for Laptop for Gaming and Web browsing/YouTube Posted: 18 Sep 2021 08:14 PM PDT Budget: $1000-$1500 Specs I'm looking for: - rtx 3060 (I'm not familiar with graphics cards but I've been told I should look for this GPU or around this powerful of one) - 16gb ram or more - 256gb ssd or more - 15.6inch or bigger screen (prefer bigger) - 144hz screen or better So far I've found a few with the specs I want and for a decent price, but I don't know what laptop is better. I want something that doesn't get hot and I wouldn't need a cooling pad for like my previous one. Also something that is less minimal and shows it's a gaming laptop would be nice to have. Some of them that seem interesting are: - HP Omen - Asus Tuf / Tuf dash - Acer predator Helios 300 - Lenovo Legion - Dell G series [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 18 Sep 2021 11:26 AM PDT
Also, on a minor note - I would like the laptop to be eligible for Windows 11, as it wouldn't make sense for me to get a laptop that I can't upgrade. [link] [comments]  |
| Posted: 18 Sep 2021 04:24 PM PDT Staples tried to upsell my mother a $1200 "gaming" laptop and told her she needed it lol. I told her to return it. I said she could get one to fit her needs for half as much. She just wants a basic windows 10 machine that will connect with her printer (needs windows 10) and can stream media over hdmi to her TV (don't need a gaming laptop for that lol) Maybe an Asus or Acer? Something quality but affordable. I'll be looking around while this post is up. Thanks in advance if you have any suggestions. [link] [comments]  |
| Laptop under 550$ - zero gaming needed. Just browsing Posted: 18 Sep 2021 06:44 AM PDT Total budget: $550 Are you open to refurbs/used? No How would you prioritize form factor (ultrabook, 2-in-1, etc.), build quality, performance, and battery life? Laptop should last for 3 years. Battery run time can be low because I always keep the charger plugged in. How important is weight and thinness to you? None 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. I want to watch movies on netflix or hulu, browse reddit, use google drive(docs) online. I am not going to use it for gaming, just for browsing. If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want? None, not going to be playing games on it. Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)? Needs USB ports. Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion. The laptop should last for 2-3 years. Security is top priority as I am going to use this for work. I don't want refurbished because of this reason(they may not support latest os). I am going to use it as secondary work laptop. Which requires just light browsing like filling some forms on a website. I will only use the laptop when I get an alert. So, pretty much the laptop will be used rarely. Browsing should not be slow.

| Looking for a laptop for digital art, $500 or less, preferably. Posted: 18 Sep 2021 06:33 PM PDT Old laptop just took a dump so I'm in the process of finding a new one. Not a computer person so I'm not really sure where to begin. The most heavy duty work I do is just digital art, sometimes play with flash animation. Nothing professional. Appreciate the help! Total budget (in local currency) and country of purchase. Please do not use USD unless purchasing in the US: Buying in US, up to $500. Are you open to refurbs/used? Sure. How would you prioritize form factor (ultrabook, 2-in-1, etc.), build quality, performance, and battery life? I can be clumsy so the sturdier the better, whatever good performance I can get for the budget, mostly stay connected so battery life doesn't really matter much. How important is weight and thinness to you? Not important. Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A. 14 inches, maybe. I'll likely have it hooked up to a larger monitor most of the time. Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run. I do some photo editing, mostly drawing, sometimes animation. I like to use Krita, Photoshop, and Flash, would like to use Blender. No games, but I might like to play one or two like Moss or No Man's Sky. If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want? Whatever works. I dont know if I'll ever be playing any games anyway, I might never get around to it. Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)? I don't often use a touchpad since I keep a drawing tablet plugged in and using a touchpad too long hurts my hand. I use a wacom intuos pen and touch tablet. I like to listen to music so good speakers would be nice but I have a good pair of headphones to make up for it too.

| 3D modeling/Rendering/Unreal Engine Laptop, under £1100 Posted: 18 Sep 2021 02:24 PM PDT LAPTOP QUESTIONNAIRE Total budget (in local currency) and country of purchase. Please do not use USD unless purchasing in the US: £1,100 - purchasing in the UK. I just moved here from the US. Are you open to refurbs/used? no How would you prioritize form factor (ultrabook, 2-in-1, etc.), build quality, performance, and battery life? I would prioritize performance, this computer needs to be able to handle very taxing 3D software such as Maya, UE4, Zbrush etc. and high graphics games. How important is weight and thinness to you? not very. I don't want it to be gigantic, at least so I can carry it in a backpack if necessary, but I'm down to trade off for performance. Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A. 15" or larger Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run. Unreal Engine, Maya, Substance (designer and painter) Zbrush, Premiere pro, and more. + lots of gaming If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want? I play a lot of DOTA, but I know any computer with the specs to run my software can run all new games Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)? Performance is 90% of what I care about. I'm alright hooking it up to external keyboard and mouse. As long as the case isnt too fragile, and the screen is nice. Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion. I've been looking at the Acer Nitro, Lenovo Legion, Predator Helios. But not sure what to get yet. Thank you in advance for the advice! [link] [comments]  |
| Stocks, watching music/movies, but mainly stock trading under $800 if possible…(Windows preferably) Posted: 18 Sep 2021 06:30 AM PDT Hi 👋🏻 As the title suggests, I am looking for a laptop that I can use for daily stock trading, listening to music and watching videos don't necessarily need a gaming laptop with something that is more on the affordable side preferably with a larger screen if possible. If you have a suggestion please let me know! On a sidenote I'd like some thing that runs windows! [link] [comments]  |
| Good laptop for media consumption (YouTube, HD movies)? Posted: 18 Sep 2021 01:59 PM PDT I am looking for a laptop that is good for media consumption, meaning it primarily needs to have a good screen and good speakers. I currently use a Chromebook for this purpose which has served me well, except that it is getting slow, especially when I have a lot of browser tabs open. Requirements:

| Best equivalent to a 14-inch Macbook Air? Posted: 18 Sep 2021 05:23 PM PDT Reposting because last one got no replies (let me know if I'm doing something wrong) I've been here before, looking for a business grade laptop. I got great answers here as well as in my teacher groups, and was ultimately between a Lenovo Thinkpad 14" E14 Gen 2 laptop and a 13.3" Macbook Air. I went to a brick-and-mortar store to try the Macbook and the 13.3" is sooo small. I learned that they are releasing a 14" laptop this fall and was thinking I might wait to try that, but alas I realized they are releasing a 14" Macbook *Pro* not Air and really that's way more computer than I need, I can't justify that cost. A 14" Macbook Air is rumored but not until 2022, so here I am again. My hang up for the Lenovo I mentioned is that the screen and keyboard reviews are not great. It's also very dark and I really hate the color red :P I also went to Best Buy today and the guy there suggested a Microsoft Surface 4, a Dell Inspiron 7000, or a HP Spectre. TL;DR What's the best PC equivalent for a nonexistent 14-inch Macbook Air? LAPTOP QUESTIONNAIRE
Help. I've been stuck in laptop analysis paralysis for way too long now. Save meee [link] [comments]  |
| LF: Laptop for gaming, 17" screen, RTX 3070/3080 GPU, max budget of 2.800 CAD (2.200 USD) Posted: 18 Sep 2021 01:12 PM PDT Pretty much everything important is in the title. I could accept a 16" screen size too. I don't care about battery life, fan noise or RGB. Having a USB 3 type C port is always a plus. I saw that some models don't come with one. So there it is, I'm open to your suggestions. [link] [comments]  |
