Here are all the decent Ultrabook/regular/business laptops you can buy.

How I rate these laptops:
Build quality first. Battery life second. The rest are display, input devices, performance, warranty etc.

Hello TS, what's ur recommendation for that Lenovo laptop?

Requirement:
15" | Ryzen 5000 or i5 above | 8gb ram | 500gb ssd | more tough & durable laptop, heard thinkpad fit into this.
Usage:
Chrome with lot of tab, netflix, normal Microsoft office only.
Budget: 3-3.5k

I'm torn between ThinkPad L15 Gen 2 Part Number: 20X7CTO1WW & ThinkPad E15 Gen 3 Part Number: 20YJCTO1WW
What's the different between L vs E series? I found L15 got more ports/slots includes micro sd & smartcard reader that might be useful for my work but only single slot ram & ssd. Meanwhile, E15 got 2 slots of ram & ssd which very useful for future upgrade. Correct me if im wrong & feedback welcome.

Please see my customization below. Thanks in advance icon_idea.gif

It really depends on what you want...L series has smaller battery and usually don't have high sRGB screen

you mixed up a bit...L series has 2 RAM slots while E series has 1 (1 slot+1 soldered)

Thanks for the clarification! good to know that both laptop consist 2 ram slots.

Based on your experience, do you think 11.11 will have better sales? or other higher range lenovo at this price point?

Don't mind for the long waiting period.

Depending on situation, if waiting 2-3 months can get a much better one, then maybe can. If it’s almost the same then may grab the one with shorter waiting time
