Below 3k.. no preference on weight or battery life..

Can consider Commandos Glock 5...on sale now
Or if you don't mind 1050 GPU: Level51 Forge 15, Illegear Raven / Raven SE

Any sugestion for laptop for budget around 2.5k? Prefer longer battery life.

Eyeing for dell 7570. Office+trade with multiple chart+media(movie)+can run smoothly software such as autocad & solidworks.

If you want longer battery life then definitely not Inspiron

2.5k is kinda low...can consider Acer Swift 3 SF314-54-55JD / 57FD / 59T5 +RAM

Gonna narrow down more. Another requirements are i5-8265U, MX150/MX250

Should I be worried about the MX150 and MX250? The newer MX250 seem cheaper than MX150 hmm.gif

You need to send back to them by courier...if you don't like it then consider brands with more service centers available, but gaming laptop is no longer an option if you prefer this

Swift 3 might throttle a bit when hit certain throttle point but still it's a 25W card, not a big issue

You need to do research. Or ask me brows.gif
