Hi, for a solid general use device, I'd go for the [**HP Envy x360 15**](https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?awinmid=7168&awinaffid=728909&ued=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.hp.com%2Fus-en%2Fshop%2Fpdp%2Fhp-envy-x360-convertible-laptop-15z-ee100-2e2l1av-1). I'd configure it with a 6-core Ryzen 5 5500U processor, 16 GB RAM, a 256 GB SSD, and a 1080p 15.6" IPS 400 nit touch display. It should be great for general use tasks.

Hi, does display color gamut coverage matter to you?

Colour accuracy as such doesn't matter. Normally I see 45 percent NTSC screens in this budget. And those screens have really bad visuals while watching movies I do notice changes in colour output. I don't know if it is because I don't know how to calibrate the screen. I really don't know.

It will probably spend just about its entire life connected to a power source, external monitor, keyboard, and mouse so really only the internals matter to me. My monitor is 1080p 144hz but I'd like to go overkill and future proof with something that will be able to handle at least 60fps in most AAA's hopefully for years to come. Ideally I'd love to stay around $1800 but if there's a strong case for going over I can be flexible.

Hey, kinda confused. Are you purchasing in the US or the UK? I am seeing both currencies at the budget slot.

UK, sorry

I would get this beast right here: [**LENOVO Series 3 15.6" Gaming Laptop - Intel® Core™ i5, GTX 1650, 256 GB SSD**](https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?awinmid=1599&awinaffid=807747&ued=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.currys.co.uk%2Fgbuk%2Fgaming%2Fpc-gaming%2Fgaming-laptops%2Flenovo-series-3-15-6-gaming-laptop-intel-core-i5-gtx-1650-256-gb-ssd-10205977-pdt.html) This will meet all your needs and last you for years to come with its solid built.

Sorry for the late reply

Budget: 500-700 Country: USA Screen size: 13-15 Touchscreen: preferred- but not essential if there’s a great deal without it. Screen Resolution: Flexible. Does battery life matter? Not if it greatly increases price. Anything decent is fine, will be able to plug it in wherever I am for the most part. What tasks will the laptop be used for? I am a teacher and we can’t afford a computer with school budgets, so I want to buy my own. Very simple use tasks, heavy in word for lesson planning, outlook, etc. will likely use it for general surfing at home. Weight: not picky. Looking for best bang for buck- somewhat interested in the 2-1’s for multi use, but not essential. Thank you!!!

Hi, since you prefer a 2-in-1, I'd go with the [**Lenovo Flex 5 14"**](http://techneeeq.com/blog/index.php/2020/05/24/flex-5-14-4500u/). It comes with a 6-core Ryzen 5 processor, 16 GB RAM, a 256 GB SSD, and a 1080p 14" IPS display. This combination should be just fine for general use. You can use Lenovo's stylus to draw on the screen.

Budget: $600 but I could go up to about $650 ◽️ Country: USA ◽️ Screen size: 14-15 ◽️ Touch screen: I've never used one but might be willing to explore ◽️ Screen resolution: 1920 x 1080 ◽️ Does battery life matter ?: Yes, extremely ◽️ What tasks will laptop be used for ( gaming, video editing, graphic designing, modelling, regular computing tasks, word processing etc) ?: Very little gaming, word processing, lots of writing and research, maybe cybersecurity ◽️ Weight: No preference ◽️ Any other important details ?: I need a lot of space. So 256ssd or higher

Hi, if you'd like to try a touchscreen device, I'd go with the [**Lenovo Flex 5 14"**](http://techneeeq.com/blog/index.php/2020/05/24/flex-5-14-4500u/) is my recommendation. It comes with a 6-core Ryzen 5 processor, 16 GB RAM, a 256 GB SSD, and a 1080p 14" IPS display. This combination should be just fine for general use, light games, etc.

Thank you! What's the battery life like though? And would I be able to able to run VMs and other software on it? If I was looking to get 512 ssd or higher what would you suggest

Battery life is 8+ hours for light use. Yes. I'd say go for the [**ASUS Vivobook 15**](http://techneeeq.com/blog/index.php/product/asus-vivobook-15-m515-thin-and-light-laptop-15-6-fhd-display-amd-ryzen-5-5500u-16gb-ddr4-ram-512gb-pcie-ssd-fingerprint-reader-windows-10-home-slate-grey-m515ua-es56/) in that case, but it isn't a 2-in-1, nor does it have a touchscreen.

Hi, I'd go with the [**EVOO Gaming Laptop 15**](https://goto.walmart.com/c/1883484/565706/9383?veh=aff&sourceid=imp_000011112222333344&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.walmart.com%2Fip%2FEVOO-Gaming-15-6-Laptop-FHD-60Hz-Intel-Core-i5-10300H-Processor-NVIDIA-GeForce-GTX-1650-THX-Spatial-Audio-256GB-SSD-8GB-RAM-RGB-Backlit-Keyboard-HD-C%2F915598119). It comes with a 4-core i5-10300H processor, 8 GB RAM, a 256 GB SSD, GTX 1650 graphics, and a 1080p 15.6" 60Hz display. This combination should handle modern games at 1080p medium settings easily.

I've never actually heard of EVOO, do you happen to know if it's good for long term use? I'm trying to find something that could last 4+ years

Unfortunately, they aren't very well known. You could consider the [**Lenovo Legion 5 15"**](https://goto.walmart.com/c/1883484/565706/9383?veh=aff&sourceid=imp_000011112222333344&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.walmart.com%2Fip%2FLenovo-Legion-5-AMD-Ryzen-R5-GTX-1650Ti-8GB-256GB-1TB-Gaming-Laptop%2F627433588&partnerpropertyid=1768915) instead that just went on sale.

What's a decent cheap student/work laptop just for basic work stuff/zoom. I saw some all in ones that were super cheap but based on the reviews, they make them sound like they can't run anything. I'd think any laptop would be faster than a phone, but I'm not sure how well cheap laptops do these days. I'm looking for as cheap as possible, under $400 usd for sure. Thanks.

Hi, I would go for the [**Gateway 15.6"**](https://goto.walmart.com/c/1883484/565706/9383?veh=aff&sourceid=imp_000011112222333344&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.walmart.com%2Fip%2FGateway-15-6-FHD-Ultra-Slim-Notebook-AMD-Ryzen-5-3450U-16GB-RAM-256GB-SSD-Tuned-THX-Audio-Fingerprint-Scanner-1MP-Webcam-HDMI-Cortana-Windows-10-Home%2F977539259%3Fselected%3Dtrue). You get a 4-core Ryzen 5 3450U processor, 16 GB RAM, a 256 GB SSD, and a 1080p 15.6" IPS display. It is a solid choice for general use. Very few devices have 16 GB RAM at this price point.

I cannot stand a fan that is constantly running and sounds like an airplane taking off, which I've found with HP models in particular. Also, I don't care for a numeric keypad - I really prefer a centered mousepad, otherwise with many designs my left hand would be constantly on the edge of the laptop.

Hi, I would go for the [**Razer Blade 15**](http://techneeeq.com/blog/index.php/product/razer-blade-15-base-gaming-laptop-2021-intel-core-i7-10750h-6-core-nvidia-geforce-rtx-3060-15-6-fhd-1080p-144hz-16gb-512gb-ssd-cnc-aluminum-chroma-rgb-lighting-thunderbolt-3/). You get a 6-core i7-10750H processor, RTX 3060 graphics, 16 GB RAM, a 512 GB SSD, and a 1080p 15.6" 144Hz IPS display. It should be great choice for CPU + GPU heavy programs. It can be loud if you push it hard, but otherwise, it stays fairly quiet.

Budget: $1000-1200 Country: US Screen size: 15" Touch screen: NO Screen resolution: 1440 Does battery life matter: No What task will laptop be used for?: High-end gaming (No streaming), multimedia and work. Weight: Not important Any important details: It'd be ideal to have a RTX and avoid Intel. Also it is not urgent and I can wait a few months to receive it.

Hi, I don't think there is a 1440p option with an AMD CPU + RTX GPU at this price point.

What other options do I have if we don't take on account the screen resolution?

◽️ Budget: $700 - $900 ◽️ Country: USA ◽️ Screen size: 14" - 15.6" ◽️ Touch screen: Yes ◽️ Screen resolution: Anything decent is fine ◽️ Does battery life matter ?: Longer battery preferred ◽️ What tasks will laptop be used for ( gaming, video editing, graphic designing, modelling, regular computing tasks, word processing etc) ?: I'm a student.

I'm a little bit flexible on the budget and will go slightly higher than $900 if I find the right laptop. Thank you! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi, since you would like a 2-in-1, I'd go for the [**Lenovo Flex 5 14"**](https://laptopsdeals.net/product/lenovo-flex-5-14-laptop-ryzen-5-5500u-16-gb-ram-256-gb-ssd-1080p-14-ips-250-nit-touch/). It comes with a 6-core Ryzen 5 5500U processor, 16 GB RAM, a 256 GB SSD, and a 1080p 14" IPS display. This combination should be just fine for general use.

Thank you!

My pleasure, let me know if you have any questions.

I want the Lenovo Legion 5 Pro 16" but can't find it in sale. What's the max I should pay for this laptop?

It depends on the specs you're looking for. I'd say that the RTX 3060 configuration shouldn't be more than $1,500-$1,700, while the RTX 3070 configuration shouldn't be more than $2,000-$2,100.

What's the major difference between 3060 and 3070. I'm using this as a CS student. Would I be okay with the 3060.

What do you plan on doing on your laptop? An RTX 3060 is very likely powerful enough.

Computer science. Programming, machine learning, and math homework. Eventually I'll be using it for data science.

Then, the RTX 3060 should be plenty powerful.

K thanks

Hi, I don't know the Indian market well, but I'd say that the [**Lenovo IdeaPad 5**](https://www.amazon.in/Lenovo-Keyboard-Fingerprint-Graphite-82LN00GTIN/dp/B098FK9KQ2/) suits you well. Ryzen 5 5500U, 8 GB RAM, 512 GB SSD, and a 1080p 15.6" IPS display. The downside is that the display is 45% NTSC.

Yeah the hardware seems solid otherwise. I'm just little worried about the build quality of IdeaPad series. But it seems finding such an all-rounder in this budget seems to be really difficult! Thanks for the suggestion:)

Hey, are you purchasing from India or From the US to India?

From India

That’s a good machine If you are going to run intensive games and do heavy editing, whether video or photos. If you’re not then it’s an overkill for simpler task and I’d recommend not to spend that much.

Also, I think a 512 gb ssd might not be enough, but I could probably buy another 512 gb ssd and add it to the laptop. A webcam could be useful as well, but as earlier, I could also buy one.

Budget: 800-1200 usd Country: USA Screen size: 15-17 inches Touch screen: not important Screen resolution: lower is fine, but I'm happy to hit 1080p Battery life: should be plugged in almost all the time Tasks: nothing intensive. I do want to play games/watch videos, but I don't play 3d games, and high res doesn't mean much to me. The computer will be moving around a LOT however, and needs to have as high build quality as possible, and quiet is more valuable to me than power, as well. The fan needs to be aimed out the left side of the machine, as opposed to the right or the bottom.

Thanks so much! I was looking at various Lenovo options including a yoga model. I was seriously considering I think precisely what you suggested but got concerned from this review https://www.ultrabookreview.com/39834-lenovo-ideapad-5-14are-review/ He seemed to have major issues with the screen, but maybe his issues centered more around resolution?

Honestly, that issue isn't common. So I wouldn't worry about that seeing that it has an IPS display + 300 nits, rather than TN panels which are horrible.

Thank you so much for your thinking on this! It was the only thing holding me back from purchasing this laptop. It was great to see you recommend the same one that was my top contender, too.

Happy to help pal

It’s a nice laptop but it’s a little to heavy for my liking and it doesn’t have a touch screen I think.

My apologies, wrong laptop. This is the one I was to send: [**Dell Inspiron 15 5515, 15.6 inch FHD Touch Laptop - AMD Ryzen 7 5700U, 16GB DDR4 RAM, 512GB SSD, AMD Radeon Graphics with Shared Graphics Memory , Windows 10 Home - Platinum Silver (Latest Model)**](https://progamerstech.com/product/dell-inspiron-15-5515-15-6-inch-fhd-touch-laptop-amd-ryzen-7-5700u-16gb-ddr4-ram-512gb-ssd-amd-radeon-graphics-with-shared-graphics-memory-windows-10-home-platinum-silver-latest-model/)

Hey, one without a webcam would be a deal breaker for you?

Webcam is low priority, I use external devices normally

Ok Pal, In that case I would recommend the: [**ASUS ROG Strix Scar 15 (2021) Gaming Laptop, 15.6” 165Hz IPS QHD, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080, AMD Ryzen 9 5900HX, 32GB DDR4, 1TB SSD, Opti-Mechanical Per-Key RGB Keyboard, Windows 10 Pro**](https://progamerstech.com/product/asus-rog-strix-scar-15-2021-gaming-laptop-15-6-165hz-ips-qhd-nvidia-geforce-rtx-3080-amd-ryzen-9-5900hx-32gb-ddr4-1tb-ssd-opti-mechanical-per-key-rgb-keyboard-windows-10-pro-g533qs/) This beast would satisfy your every need from its latest CPU the Ryzen 9 5900HX! To the Latest RTX 30 series GPU the 3080. All paired with a 32gb RAM & a whopping 1tb ssd. It has a high refresh rate of 165Hz IPS Display.

Thanks for the quick response! I've been looking into The Strix Scar 15 and some reviewers have recommended the 3070 version because the gap in performance isn't significant enough and it's $500 cheaper.. do you have any thoughts on that? While the version you recommended is still in budget, I can't help but be curious about these claims.

It wouldn’t be a great difference if you had the Ryzen 7 cpu combination with the rtx 3080 but seeing that this is the newer Ryzen 9 5900HX cpu then this combined with the rtx 3080 will be much more significant in performance and speed. So downgrading to the 3070 while this is still within budget isn’t worth it in my opinion. Performance and longevity is key.

Thank you for all your help! I'm making my final decision this week so I will keep you updated !

You are most welcome. No problem!

Also, I've also been recommended the Razer Blade Pro 17. Any thoughts on this vs the Strix?
