hello. can anyone recommend me a laptop that is optimum for CS students like me?
Preferences(Major):
-Budget: 2000-3000
-At least 3 to 4hrs of battery life
-4 RAM will do(i guess..), not too high/low
-Purpose: for coding/programming either in IDE or terminal + text editor, oh and also less emphasis on gaming since i rarely play PC games
- Good warranty and after sales services
Preferences (Minor):
-Brand: Any will do, though I've been hearing good things about HP when comes to battery life.
-Weight: Don't mind if it's bulky/heavy/light
-anywhere between 13 to 14 inches will do
-Do not overheat rapidly
P/S: My current notebook (ASUS X540LJ if I'm correct) battery life only lasts for under 2hrs. I've been using it since Dec 2013, hope I'm able to get a decent laptop that has a longer battery life. If it weren't for it's battery flaw, then I would've keep using it for much longer period... Thanks
in case you need more supporting features win 10 pro is much better than home. as home have limited features. in case web based related or cloud.
