Hi everyone,
I’m going to start studying IT next year and I’m looking for a good laptop in the €2000–2500 range.
I would prefer a MacBook Pro because I like macOS and build quality, but I’m also open to Windows laptops if they offer better performance for the price.
My main use cases:
programming / studying (IT degree)
multitasking (lots of tabs, coding tools, etc.)
occasional gaming (not hardcore, but I’d like to be able to play modern games on decent settings)

What I care about most:
performance + smooth multitasking
good battery life
reliability/build quality
portability (I’ll carry it to university)
I’m not sure if a MacBook Pro makes sense for me because of gaming limitations, so I’d really appreciate advice on whether I should go Mac or Windows, and any specific model recommendations.
Thanks in advance!
