Just as the title says.

Looking for :

-Reliability: Reliable case, hinges surface that can take an "punch" for years. Also no flimsiness, such as display bending (while carrying in backpack) that can create some scratches.

-Futureproofing- looking to use the laptop for a long time with minimal to no upgrades if possible .

-A LOT of ports: 2-3 HDMI, 2-3 USB- A and USB-C, SD card slot {Hope this many ports actually exists}

-A lot of RAM, 32GB is great, if 64 then phenomenal

• 4GB storage, looking to double boot Windows & Linux

-Sturdiness: little to no plastic, mostly metal

• Good battery life so that I can use it for work on the run. I'll never/ rarely play games on battery, if so, then only Visual Novels.

-4K preferably 120-144 fps display

-Obviously some good GPU and CPU

-Quality in general

Hopefully this isn't just some nonsense since I'm not a hardware tech guy. If so I'm accepting suggestions to improve this post. Also posting for other people since I couldn't find something like this one.

FYI: I'm an Electrical Engineering student leaning towards physics.
Mainly playing Visual Novels but normal games with friends is also an option.
Absolutely need multitasking performance.
If these spec laptops are on the second hand market, then I'm willing to go with it if there's no complications.

An HUGE Thanks You to all suggestions and replies, I really appreciate it. Have a good day brothers

I'm just trying to find a good laptop that I can watch streaming channels (Hulu, Netflix, Roku, etc) but also use my Google account and Google browser. Chromebook and Windows 11s don't seem right for that purpose at all as neither of them will let me use Google account. But that's all I seem to be able to find when I search laptops. I don't have a huge budget either. I'm looking to spend less than $250. Here are the other specs I'm looking for: wifi connection, SSD drive, 8gb ram, good battery life and at least 2 USB ports.

Hi everyone,

I’m looking for advice and recommendations on a high-performance laptop to buy my boyfriend for Christmas and trying to take advantage of some sales today. He’s heavily into crypto trading and manages multiple wallets, so I want to get him something that’s tailored to his needs. Specifically, he’s been eyeing dual-screen laptops, so that’s a feature I definitely want to include.

What I’m Looking For:

1. Performance:
   • A powerful processor is a must—something that can handle multiple trading platforms, software, and tabs running simultaneously without lag. I’ve heard good things about Intel Core i7 or i9 processors, or their AMD equivalents like the Ryzen 7 or 9. Any insights on which is better for this use case?
   • At least 16GB of RAM (maybe 32GB if necessary?). I want this laptop to be future-proof for at least a few years.
2. Dual-Screen Functionality:
   • He needs dual-screens for work so I figured having this feature would be helpful for working from home. What do you think about laptops like the ASUS ZenBook Duo series, which have an additional screen above the keyboard. I think the extra screen space will help him monitor multiple charts, portfolios, and news feeds simultaneously. Are there other dual-screen options I should consider, or is the ZenBook Duo the best choice in this category?
3. Graphics:
   • He’s not into gaming, so I don’t think we need a top-tier GPU. However, I’d still like decent graphics capability for smooth visuals, especially when dealing with chart-heavy crypto platforms.
4. Portability:
   • He works from home most of the time but occasionally takes his laptop to coworking spaces or coffee shops. So, a balance between portability and screen size would be ideal—nothing overly bulky.
5. Storage:
   • Since he deals with crypto wallets, I assume a fast SSD is critical. Should I aim for 1TB storage, or would 512GB with external options suffice?
6. Price Range:
   • I’m flexible but would prefer to stay under $3,000. If there’s something amazing slightly above that, I’m open to suggestions.

Additional Questions:

• Brand reliability: Are there brands better suited for this kind of work? I’ve heard mixed things about ASUS, Dell, and Lenovo, but I’m not sure which is most reliable for heavy workloads.
• Battery life: Are dual-screen laptops known for poor battery life? If so, how manageable is this with external batteries or chargers?
• Warranty and support: Since this is an investment, I’d prefer a laptop with a solid warranty and good customer support.

I want this to be a practical and thoughtful gift that he’ll genuinely love and use every day. If you’ve got personal experience with dual-screen laptops or use your laptop for trading, I’d love to hear about what works for you.

Thanks in advance for your help! I’m not super tech-savvy, so any guidance on what to look out for or avoid would be hugely appreciated.

Looking forward to your suggestions!

Hi! I've had the HP Envy x360 2-in-1 15-fh0xxx for a little over a year now. Without derailing with too many details, a short in the motherboard has killed its ability to connect to the internet, so sadly I'm looking at replacement options. I am writing this on very little sleep, so please bare with me.

LAPTOP QUESTIONNAIRE

Total budget (in local currency) and country of purchase. Please do not use USD unless purchasing in the US:

USA, preferably under $1,000 USD, but I'm willing to invest more into a good laptop that fits my needs and will last me a while.

Are you open to refurbs/used?

Yes

How would you prioritize form factor (ultrabook, 2-in-1, etc.), build quality, performance, and battery life?

- I'd like to use it for digital art with a Surface pen, so 2-in-1 would be important for me.

- Performance is also important, I like to have a lot of tabs and programs open at once. My previous laptop seemed to struggle with the display when I would draw in tablet mode, but I'm willing to deal with it.

- As for build quality... I just want it to last me a while?

- As long as it has a battery, I'll be happy. The laptop I'm writing this on doesn't have a battery at all. :(

How important is weight and thinness to you?

Not very. I'd lug around a bag of bricks if it had all the functions I need.

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 would like to get into some audio editing someday... the only program on my radar is Audacity, lol. I use Krita for art currently.

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

N/A

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

- I'm looking for a laptop that uses Microsoft Pen Protocol so that I can use my Surface Pen with it.

- I'd like to avoid magnetic charging ports like what the Surface line has, I hate them.

- I absolutely need an HDMI port and a headphone jack.

- I would like a built-in ethernet port, but I guess I'm willing to sacrifice that if it's not an option... SD card slot would be nice but still willing to make sacrifices. :(

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

The ability to repair items rather than replace them is important to me.

The formatting got a little messed up, sorry. :') Please let me know if there is anything I forgot to mention or that needs clarification, thank you!

I used to borrow the laptops of my siblings when I was in high school for doing homework. But now that my younger brother wants to move my files off of his laptop so he can reset the whole thing, I have to save up to get my own laptop just so I can save my files from getting delated.

I’m hoping to find a laptop that won’t struggle too much with any of my files for my digital art projects or writing things, but is strong enough that it won’t howl at me if I want to play a indie game with pixel art graphics for a few hours (since I doubt I can afford those fancy gaming laptops if I wanted to play games on PC with much more detail)

So hopefully I can find a laptop that would help for my needs as someone with active imagination for fiction in general.

Looking to gift someone a laptop for college. They primarily do classes online and would like to bring their laptop to work to work on assignments. They are majoring in writing and literature with a focus on technical writing. Also is a gamer, but has a gaming computer and different systems so doesn’t need a laptop for gaming, however he is very knowledgeable on like the pixels, and speed, and gb, ect. (I am not lol) so I would like one that is up to par with the different attributes that he would need for an efficient laptop!

What laptops would you recommend?

Looking for a high-performance laptop that will be used mostly for gaming but will also be used for personal business/work as well. No budget ceiling, just looking for something reliable, top-tier performance, and good longevity. Any suggestions?

I'm looking for a laptop that I can use for the following: Zoom calls, watch movies, write documents and run data analyses in SPSS and Excel. My one toxic trait is that I open up millions of tabs in Firefox and put the computer in hibernate so I need a laptop that will be able to handle that.

Costco has really good deals today, but I'm stuck between these 3 or 4 while trying to balance cost and performance. All have 16GB memory and 1TB SSD. Can anyone offer help?

• Dell Inspiron 16" - Intel Core 7 150U - $599
• HP Pavilion 16" - AMD Ryzen 7 8840U - $549
• HP Pavilion 16" - Intel Core 5 Processor 120U - $499
• Dell Inspiron 16" Laptop - AMD Ryzen 7 8840U -$549 (out of stock atm so should I wait for it to return?)

$1,200 ish

Are you open to refurbs/used?

no

How would you prioritize form factor (ultrabook, 2-in-1, etc.), build quality, performance, and battery life?

His gaming isn't 'heavy' gaming, at least not yet. He is getting into programming and is going to be doing high level math along with programming.

How important is weight and thinness to you?

Somewhat important as it will be portable and going to HS with him.

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

16ish

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

Fortnite, etc. He has a 3d modeling program he loves as well.

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

no idea

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

Nothing out of the ordinary, if that makes sense!

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

He's been looking at the Dell 16, HP Omen..what else should we be looking at? We want something that can get him through HS. Thanks for any advice.

My laptop shat out on me this weekend, and with cyber-monday sales happening I am on an extremely tight schedule to find something that works for me, and hopefully with a little sale (although not necessary)

• Total budget (in local currency) and country of purchase. Please do not use USD unless purchasing in the US:
  • FLEXIBLE, although preference to under 3k CAD, I am holding onto these student grants, and have slight financial aid ($500) from private grants, as well as other financial help. Lesser the better, but I know myself and I wont cheap out as I need reliability
• 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 NEED 2-in-1
  • Needs to be able to withstand and perform with heavy multitasking, (queen of holding onto a bazillion tabs due to my ADHD brain)
  • (BENEFIT) something that can handle Adobe Products such as Lightroom & Photoshop.
    • Also concerned with colour profiles as I am unsure if there are any laptops that covers 100% Adobe RGB, and if not.... what are the outcomes for post-production when using the DCI-P3 profiles? From my understanding, DCI-P3 is great for video and cinema; what does that mean for photography and printing? (not as concerned with prints at the moment as I am with social media etc)
• How important is weight and thinness to you?
  • not at all, i will carry a 50lb brick if i need to
• Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A.
  • indifferent, although I am currently using a 15" and would prefer to stay at this size (larger and smaller are also okay, just nothing too small)
• Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run.
  • Adobe products: Lightroom and Photoshop, School programs arent as tasking such as powerpoint, word, lockdown browsers etc (i usually have like 40 tabs open all at the same time, don't hate me, it helps me complete assignments I've started and abandoned)
• If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want?
  • I have a PC for that :)
• Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)?
  • Needs to be 360 touch screen for hand written notes
• Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion.
  • IF I CANT GET SOMETHING THAT WORKS FOR BOTH SCHOOL AND PHOTOGRAPHY -- *I will cry*, but it is not your fault though and *I will manage*, If you are recommending something for school productivity alone my budget would be significantly lower as I will need to purchase a third monitor for my gaming set-up, I would greatly benefit from monitor recommendations as well if this is the case, although I will be making a post in a monitor discussion as well!!
  • The biggest question is related to: DCI-P3 vs Adobe RGB for photo processing and online delivery, as well as print outcomes(Not an immediate concern for prints)
  • Second question: expectations for processing large files for photos on the recommended laptop. Lightroom is extremely taxing and my laptop currently (if not broken) would take like 15 minutes for newer features such as the AI detection for masking etc.
  • PLEASE PLEASE don't forget I require 2-in-1 for school, I know this is a BIG ask, and I would probably just purchase a gaming laptop if this weren't the case (although still lost with DCI-P3 and Adobe RGB LOL)

*if you manage to find something that fits ALL of the bills, forget budget, forget it, but also don't forget it and offer budget options to my problem so I can contract and compare my needs :(*

So, I'm looking to get a new laptop for my daughter who loves gaming. before I shifted to Mac books I used to really like PcSpecialist and for a 64Gb i9 with Nvidia 4090 they come in at nearly a grand cheaper than Alienware.

Any thoughts or suggestions for a custom build?

Budget: <£5k Location: UK Requirements: will last 5 years give or take. Good build quality.

Refurb: nope.

Please suggest a laptop under 1 lakh looking for coding, ml projects and light gaming . not looking for a gaming laptop

• Total budget (in local currency) and country of purchase. Please do not use USD unless purchasing in the US: Less than $1,000 is ideal.
• Are you open to refurbs/used? I am open to it, but I would prefer new if possible.
• How would you prioritize form factor (ultrabook, 2-in-1, etc.), build quality, performance, and battery life? I would say my prioritization is: performance build quality, form factor and then battery life. As far as form factor goes, I would prefer a traditional laptop/ultrabook style, as I am not a fan of tablets or 2-in-1 style. I will mostly be using this laptop near a power outlet, so battery isn't my biggest concern.
• How important is weight and thinness to you? Not that important. I will use this somewhat "on the go," (I.E: coffee shops, library, Amtrak) but it will be rather stationary once I am using it. Size doesn't matter that much to me (heh heh heh)
• 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. Adobe Premiere Pro is the number one piece of software that I want this laptop to use well. My main focus is making sure I can edit video as my job relies on it. Less of importance: I will also be using Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom for photo editing as well as audio software like Reaper to edit recorded drum tracks.
• If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want? I will still be mainly using my desktop PC to game, but it would admittedly kick a lotta ass if I could run Minecraft at a reasonable ~50-60 FPS on the go.
• 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 -- the clickier, more mechanical-feel, the better. I would actually prefer no touch-screen. Not a fan of the Surface Pro vibe. A good trackpad never hurts, but I will mostly be using a mouse, so not the biggest priority. Don't care at all about finger print scanners or webcams.
• Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion. None of these are make-or-break and just something I figured I would mention, but more than 2 USB ports is always good. USB-A AND USB-C would be great, but I would prefer ALL USB-C over all USB-A for sure. I am not picky on screen size/specs, but I'll say the bigger the better, just for my poor eyesight. Also, these may be a thing of the past and I am probably just super out of touch, but an SD card reader being built into the laptop hardware itself would be a nice touch.

Thank y'all!

Basically looking for a gaming laptop that I could also use for all 4 years of college. A large storage drive would be nice as well.

Hi I need a laptop for uni and maybe a bit of gaming on the side/ photo editing

I’ve been looking at this these two. One has a graphics card worse battery life presumably and worse screen: https://www.very.co.uk/asus-vivobooknbsp16x-laptop-16in-3knbspgeforce-rtx-4050-intel-core-i7-16gb-ram-1tb-ssd-silver/1601051523.prd

whereas the other is cheaper longer battery life and has a better screen. I think it’s selling very quick though:https://www.very.co.uk/asus-vivobook-s-15-laptopnbsp-156in-3k-olednbspamd-ryzen-9nbsp16gb-ram-1tb-ssdnbsp-black/1601051505.prd

Both have 3k screens but rtx is ips Could also just bring my desktop gaming pc to uni for gaming so doesn’t matter too much

I've been using a Macbook Pro 15" (2016) for the past 8 years, and it's getting old. there was an issue with an update for the touch bar conflicting with the update for the rest of it and i had to take it in for a spendy resurrection!! i mainly use my computer for light work, typing, video chatting, streaming videos, but i want a computer that will hopefully last me another 8 years. thank you so much for any help!!

Basically, I looking for a laptop which basically will be used for office work such as powerpoint and word. When I look into laptops, I look for longevity too, which I can use up to 10 years of service. I wen to a local shop, the best one where I live and these models caught my eye:

1. Lenovo ThinkPad E14 14" WUXGA with Core Ultra 5-125U, 512GBSS, DDR5 8GB ram but can be upgraded.

2. Asus Zenbook 14" Touch with Intel Core Ultra 5 125H (Series 1) OLED 120Hz 3K MTL Meteor Lake 512GB SSD 16GB RAM but cannot upgrade.

3. HP Envy X360 14" Touchscreen with OLED 2.8K Ultra 5-125U(Series 1) 1TB SSD 16GB ram cannot be upgraded comes with pen.

I'm stuck.

I do have two Hp Laptops from work, still working good and never gave me trouble.

Hey guys, please sanity check me here.

I have settled on a Lenovo. I am looking around the $900 price point. This is the best I could find:

Lenovo ThinkBook 16 G7 16" FHD+ Business Laptop, Intel Core Ultra 5 125U, 32GB DDR5 RAM, 1TB SSD, Backlit KB, Webcam, HDMI, Wi-Fi 6, W11P, Grey, 2 Yr Warranty - Walmart.com

Is there any reason I should take a different model over this one at this price point?

Thanks.

Am looking between 2 $~750 CAD laptops. The Yoga 7 is approx $75 more. Most specs look the same, where the yoga 7 has a slightly worse processor, but seems to have better battery and from what I've read better build quality. From the photos the build quality looks the same so I'm not sure.

Both will be used for general productivity and school so portability is a must which both seem to have.

Hi. I know that there is a place for PC but I couldn't find any or bigger communities.

I'd like to buy a high end laptop, for gaming occasionally (heavy games) and for creating games. I'd like it to run Unity or Unreal engine smoothly. When it comes to hardware i'm unfortunately not really good at it so I'd love to hear recommendations.

My budgest is between 1k-2k. Obviously the cheaper the better but I'd like to buy one good laptop and forget about it for at least 5+ years.

Also, I'm unable to buy a PC because i need to be mobile. Thx for the recommendations

I’m a USA merchant sailor who flys monthly, and needs a small laptop to take a few courses online. I have a good laptop at home but it’s to bulky for constant trips to work.

Cheaper the better, but without affecting my ability to study. Something that can easily fit in a backpack. Not worried about battery life (I’m always near an outlet) or ports or speakers.

Thanks for any advice!!

• Budget: <$700 (after deals), new
• Usage:
  • Quick and responsive, but only using for basic Microsoft Office use, multiple browsers, Netflix here and there.
  • I have a dedicated desktop computer, I just want something I can bring around the house to go through my finances and reference DIY youtube videos/recipes.
• Desires:
  • >15" screen size. I would like 16/17" but don't want to sacrifice too much for it.
  • Able to connect well to my widescreen curved monitor.
  • I'd prefer not to have a touchscreen, I know I won't use it much. Touchscreens do seem to be ubiquitous, though...
  • Reliable and long-lasting
  • Good keyboard

LAPTOP QUESTIONNAIRE

• Total budget (in local currency) and country of purchase. Under $450 AUD. Buying in Australia
• Are you open to refurbs/used?definitely open to refurbished laptops. I’ve been looking at the Lenovo T490s Touch | Intel i7 | 16GB RAM | 256GB SSD | Win 11 - REFURBISHED and Dell Latitude 7400 14" FHD - Intel Core i7/16GB RAM/256GB SSD/Windows 11, but I’m not sure which is better or if there is a better option than both.
• How would you prioritize form factor (ultrabook, 2-in-1, etc.), build quality, performance, and battery life?wouldn’t say I really prioritise anything more than the other. I do however want the ability to do some design work on the laptop at some point (Photoshop, InDesign, illustrator etc.)
• How important is weight and thinness to you?don’t care about weight or thinness as long as it performs well.
• Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A.anything above 14” would be nice
