acer swift 3 (most powerful processor out of 3), acer aspire 5, or asus vivobook 15 (best screen out of 3).
I think these 3 are pretty decent laptops suitable for programming as per your budget, cheers! |

QUOTE(t3n @ Jul 29 2022, 11:38 AM) Max 3k Get something with an i7 8th genT480 (upgrade to 32GB) or T480S (16GB) If can up a little 3.2k can consider T490 or X1C 6th gen or X280 (16GB) Weight wise the T480 is configurable - about 1.4 or 1.5kg IIRC comes with internal+external removable battery. so if you think the batt is heavy just unplug the external.

The ThinkPad quality is not as good as it once were. mine broke down within 3 years. motherboard problem. so for the price i think it's not worth it.
