'Cheap' and 'good' is subjective bro. Different user different balance.Can try Lenovo Ideapad 3 if you're aiming for something lower budget.

QUOTE(filmpulp @ Apr 11 2022, 07:24 PM) Hi sifu, Lenovo Yoga or Thinkpad X1 are acceptable options.I'm a digital nomad looking for a thin and lightweight laptop. Easy to carry in my backpack. Budget: 3K - 5K Usage: Mainly for work purposes (writing articles, blogging and some simple design using Adobe Illustrator & Photoshop). Also, for streaming movies (e.g. Netflix, etc.). Multitasking (e.g. can handle multiple Google Chrome/Firefox tabs). I don't use the laptop for gaming. Display: 13"-14" Weight: Less than 1.5 kg Specs: At least 512GB SSD, 8-16GB RAM. I'm fine with integrated graphics. Battery Life: Preferably can last 6-8 hours+ per charge Wait time: 1-2 months Can you recommend a few different brands and models? No Acer since I had a bad experience using it in the past. On a side note, is Lenovo Yoga Slim 7/7i Carbon or Pro version worth buying? Thanks! |

QUOTE(Domero @ Apr 22 2022, 07:45 PM) Hi! Looking to buy a decent laptop. My requirements below Would recommend Lenovo and Acer between the 3. Have heard mixed feedback from Lenovo users here, with hinge problems. This mostly depends on your luck though.Budget: 3.8k to 4.2k (can stretch a little more... just a little) Use: Multi instance emulator gaming, multi instance PC games and the usual jazz surfing etc Processor: AMD preferable GPU: RTX 3050 or RTX 3050 Ti Looking to use it for long term. I actually thought of Lenovo Ideapad Gaming 3, HP Victus and Acer Nitro 5 but I'm worried about HP and Acer having awful after-sales surpport. Please recommend between the 3 or if there are any other good choices. https://www.reddit.com/r/Lenovo/comments/pg...gaming_3_hinge/ Haven't had issues with Acer units so far. |

Predator Triton 300 SE is easily one of the best video editing laptops that you can buy within your price range.I hope anyone could give some recommendation for a new laptop, 1. Budget: Around 4k-5k 2. Usage: Mainly for video editing (davinci resolve), AI, Photoshop 3. Requirements: Does not have any specific preferences, just want the best performing laptop for the above usages. https://www.acer.com/ac/en/MY/content/preda...el/NH.Q6DSM.001 |

QUOTE(Zeroxhunter @ Apr 25 2022, 02:49 PM) Hi, I plan to buy a laptop to be used with an external monitor. As for the usage, mostly on using Autocad (heavily) and SketchUp. Next to them mostly on Spotify and internet browsing. For a budget AutoCAD laptop, can try Acer Aspire 5 or Lenovo IdeaPad L340. Acer prices go lower than Lenovo, so depends on your spec requirements.As for the price, if lowest than 4k wil be better (if 3k, even better), since I'm not into gaming. Could give me some opinion? thanks. |

QUOTE(udonmaine @ May 30 2022, 12:35 AM) Oohhh, thanks! Major difference is the Acer Spin models are convertible, so you can turn them into a tablet. Acer Swift 5 is your standard slim model that's easy to carry around, but doesn't give you that same flexibility.Btw, actually what's the difference between spin 3 (I'm looking at i5) and the new swift 5? udonmaine liked this post
