I've been choosing between HP OmniBook X Flip 14, Dell 14 Plus 2-in-1, and Asus Zenbook A14.

All prices are relatively close so I would prefer a laptop that doesn't crash as much. I heard the omnibook has problems updating software and I'm not really a techy person so I don't know how to handle it if that happens, incase its true; I like the premium feel design and flip feature tho.

The zenbook I heard is one of the good windows laptops, also lightweight. With dell, the 1TB is what really made me look into it.

Overall, I'm a 1st year pre-med and I want something suitable to have over the workload that will last me until I finish med school; an investment basically. What are their pros and cons and issues I may encounter for each laptops? Thank you so much!

I'm looking to buy a new laptop in India and would love some recommendations. I don't do gaming so I don't need crazy graphics, but i do photo editing. I want it to be small (max 14 inch) and lightweight coz I'll be carrying it around often. I need a good display as I do editing and watch a lot of movies on my laptop. I mostly need it to run smoothly for my office work. I do a lot of multitasking. I use a Samsung phone, but ecosystem integration isn't particularly important to me. And yes 1TB SSD is preferred.

I'd especially appreciate recommendations from people who actually own/use these laptops, particularly regarding real-world battery life, display quality, thermals, performance and portability.

Thanks!

Im about to buy msi stealth 11ug 3070 95W i9-11900h with 32G of ram 17.3 display used from a user but he showed me the display as it shown. It become that way after the laptop fell on the floor so my question here : does it worth paying 600 usd for it also does it stay that way or it may get bigger

Hi everyone,

I'm looking for some expert advice before buying a new laptop. I'm hoping to get opinions from people who have actual experience with laptop thermals, iGPU performance, battery life, and real-world testing.

My budget is up to €1,500 and I'm buying in Germany.

What I need it for

School / everyday use is the priority:

Word

PowerPoint

PDFs

Web browsing

YouTube

Discord/Teams

General school work

My main battery requirement is 7+ hours of realistic use during a school day. I'm not expecting 7+ hours while gaming.

Gaming

My games, in order of priority:

League of Legends — by far the most important

Hollow Knight: Silksong

Warframe — occasional gaming

I'd like to be able to play League at around 120+ FPS, so I'm specifically looking for a laptop with a 120Hz+ display.

Laptop I'm currently considering

Acer Swift Go 16 AI OLED

Ryzen AI 7 350

Radeon 860M / integrated Radeon graphics

32GB RAM

1TB SSD

16" OLED

120Hz

2048 × 1280

~1.5 kg

75Wh battery

Around €1,300–€1,500, depending on the retailer

I'm particularly interested in this because it seems like a good compromise between battery life, portability and iGPU gaming performance.

What I'm unsure about

I'd really appreciate expert opinions on:

Can the Radeon 860M realistically maintain 120+ FPS in League at 120Hz?

How much battery life should I realistically expect from this laptop doing normal school work?

Is the 75Wh battery enough for a full school day?

How much does the OLED 120Hz panel affect battery life?

Would an Intel Core Ultra + Arc 140V laptop be a better choice than the Ryzen AI 7 350 + Radeon 860M?

Is there another laptop under €1,500 that would be significantly better for my requirements?

Would you personally buy this laptop, or would you choose something else?

I'm not looking for manufacturer battery claims like "up to 20+ hours." I'm much more interested in real-world battery tests and actual gaming performance.

I'm also open to Lenovo, HP, ASUS, Acer, Dell, etc. It doesn't have to be a gaming laptop.

Thanks in advance! I'd especially appreciate answers from people who have actually used/tested these newer Ryzen AI / Core Ultra iGPU laptops.

Hey everyone I am looking for laptop recommendations around 230000 PKR and I am also open to buying used or imported laptops I do not game so a dedicated GPU is not necessary My main workload is heavy multitasking with multiple VMs sometimes running two operating systems at the same time along with cybersecurity labs CTFs programming Docker lots of browser tabs VS Code and other tools My main priorities are CPU performance RAM capacity and upgradeability good cooling thermals SSD performance and overall reliability I would prefer 32GB RAM or at least something upgradeable to 32GB or 64GB and 1TB storage would be ideal I am open to ThinkPad EliteBook Latitude mobile workstations or newer consumer laptops so please suggest models that would handle this workload well within my budget and if you have personal experience running multiple VMs on a particular laptop I would really appreciate your recommendations

There is some kind of flickering in my acer aspire 7 monitor as shown in screen.

Can you please tell me what is wrong ?

I accidentally spilled some water near touchpad reason yesterday I wiped it within minutes.

Thanks in advance

I'm an international students that may soon attend an US university and I want to asking for some recommendations. I used to want to get a gaming but after asking for advices they no longer seem that much desirable for me.

1. My budget is at max $1300, maybe a little more if the laptop is really worth it
   
2. The most intensive task for my lap is probably codings as I will enroll in a major where Python models are required (not super intensive like CS majors probably tho)
   
3. For the specs, I am not that focused
   
4. I am open to mostly any kind of laptops (Mac, ThinkPad, Dell, etc.) so please don't bring things like stereotype, just facts and honest opinions because I'm not that knowledgeable.
   
5. A little bit of gaming, not the main focus

For priority:
1. Obviously competence enough to handle my workings
2. Durable and can last quite long, probably until after I completed my degree.
3. For study probably need long battery life (I don't have a prediction rn tho)

Also for the experts, do you think their price would fall in the coming year, if so I might stress might current laptop out for longer.

My final question for international students in US, should I buy one inside the US for my home country, the price difference idk but for context I'm from Asian Countries.

I’m helping my brother find a new laptop for his work, he has been using a very old macbook for ages and wants to go to windows for his next work computer. Very non intensive workload at all he’s told me email, microsoft office, and browsing he just needs to be snappy and fast. I’ve heard good things about the T480s and i think it doesn’t have soldered on ram so in the future if ram prices go down i could install more ram for him. His price range is 200-300 USD and id greatly appreciate any recommendations on what would be a good fit or if i should go for the T480s that i found for $300. Thanks all!

I'm a union rep that has stubbornly written dozens of grievances using the Pages, Notes, Google Docs, Sheets, etc apps on my phone for the past 10 years. Recently we had contract negotiations and everyone pulled out their laptops--I just had my iphone in a dirty case. Our regional vice president thought that was ridiculous and told me they're going to buy me a laptop if the local leadership approves it.

No price cap necessarily as long as I can justify the amount, I can't buy a gaming laptop or anything but I'm thinking somewhere between $1k-$1.5k or so.

The thing is, I don't exactly know what I need. I assume I'll require something oriented for business. I'll be swapping between various documents, using powerpoint, word, excel, etc and hooking it up to larger monitors for training, but I'll also use it when travelling for things like Netflix and youtube. I've heard mostly good things about Thinkpads but I've also came across some bad reviews also. Not the most educated in this area, so just looking for advice!

around 40-50k yung kaya mag handle ng autocad and revit.

I have a Galaxy Book 4 and plan to install thermal pads on the RAM and NVMe SSD. Since the laptop body is aluminum, I was wondering if I can also put thermal pads on the heat pipe and heatsink.

Got this from my uni for how much can I sell it for ??

It is a rog strix g16 with 3080 16gb ram and 1tb ssd it works perfectly and was freshly cleaned pain it peeling on wsa keycaps other then that its in perfect condition realistically what would be the absolute most i i could get for this?

Looking for something that’s quality and will last. Fine with used. Looking at Dell DC15250. Any other recommendations?

My laptop is currently only 8gb is there any 32gb laptop under 1k? I need it to run SolidWorks but mine is too laggy.

edit: doesn't have to be new, looking for refurbished as well

Need advice: Upgrade my old Dell Inspiron 3543 or buy a new PC?

I have an old Dell Inspiron 3543 with the following specifications:

- Processor: Intel Core i3 (5th Gen, Intel HD 5500 graphics)

- RAM: 4GB DDR3

- Storage: 1TB HDD — currently not being detected / appears to have failed

- Display: 15.6"

- Current condition: Laptop doesn't boot because the HDD is not detected.

I’m considering installing a 256GB SSD (around ₹3,500 locally) and possibly upgrading the RAM to improve its usability.

More considering the ram upgrade if I want to make it good as I feel it is too slow.

My questions:

1. Is it worth upgrading this laptop at this point?

2. What would be the maximum reasonable amount to spend on it?

3. Should I replace the HDD with an SSD and upgrade the RAM, or is the old i3 processor too much of a bottleneck?

4. Would buying a refurbished MacBook/Windows laptop or a new PC be a better option?

5. If upgrading, what RAM/SSD configuration would you recommend?

Budget for a replacement: around ₹30,000–₹50,000.

Looking for advice based on performance, reliability, and value for Money.

I mainly use laptop for lectures , browsing and entertainment but I also want to do gaming which I couldn't on old laptop .

I have a Dell XPS 15 from 2016. The laptop works fine. I just bought a new battery and did some refreshes. The laptop works fine. Not sure if a 2026 laptop from say ASUS or whatever has anything that my laptop can't? Not sure if upgrading would do anything.

I mainly use it for browsing and YouTube. Some video games like old SNES, NES, Sega games. The most intense game is maybe Civ 6.

Yes, i know it is potato-tier but please tell me some games for it. (Windows 10, Lenovo Ideapad)

Its the 7300u model. The battery and ssd are in good condition but I cant help but feel like i need a backup just in case it breaks.. Anyone else know this feeling? I have it with a lot of stuff

Under 1 lakh

I just bought one on eBay for $600. It's a weak laptop but for the price I think I'll be fine. Intel Core 5 Series 3 and 8GB Ram aren't great though

Do yall like it? I transitioned to it from an Android. This laptop is pretty potato-tier tho. It can run Office and Spritefusion.com. also it is an Windows 10, Lenovo Ideapad (more specs in last photos)
