What warranty options would you recommend for Lenovo laptops? 3. Do you know of any other laptop brands that have 5600H/5800H CPU without a discrete GPU?

All other Lenovo laptops that have 5800H CPU come with discrete GPUs without the option to remove them) Thank you so much! 2. ofc onsite but warranty upgrade prices have increased 3. none atm...if got i ady recommended |

QUOTE(Claire Farron @ Jul 28 2021, 05:58 PM) E series build quality and overall usage experience comparable with T or X series? not as premium but still decent, it's catered towards consumer more instead of businessor got few compromise since it's the cheaper variant? still a decent model overall (can't say the same for older E series era like Ex70 or older) |
