PLEASE scroll through all the way

Total budget (in local currency) and country of purchase. Please do not use USD unless purchasing in the US:**

 

USD $1200 can probably stretch to 1300 maybe

 

* **Are you open to refurbs/used?**

 

not open to used but refurbs is maybe if its a really good deal

* **How would you prioritize form factor (ultrabook, 2-in-1, etc.), build quality, performance, and battery life?**

 

I want atleast 8 hours battery life life even if its on eco mode

no bulky bois please

decent build quality i dont want something too bendy need to last atleast a few years

 

* **How important is weight and thinness to you?**

 

Ill take the thinner lighter option every day if the week since i need it for school and traveling

 

* **Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A.**

 

N/A

 

* **Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run.**

 

YES i think im gonna do engineering in college but im still not sure so i might need cad

ill be running some light minecraft, fortnite, not really looking for a beast but i wanna run decent games and esport titles like valorant

I also have a ps5 so i dont think i REALLY need to be playing AAA games on the laptop but im not against the idea if i find something decent

 

* **If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want?**

 

Need atleast 100 fps preferably around 120 in the minimum of the games i play

 

* **Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)?**

 

I prefer good sturdy slim machines everything else is just nice to have but not necessarily something im really looking for

Im looking for a school/ light gaming laptop like 90% of the people who post on this sub

i have a 1200 budget so in theory i should find something decent right? NO other than laptops with shit build quality and weak battery life I cant find anything proper for the life of me

Please if you have any recommendations drop them I need in the very least 1tb ssd and 16gb ram however 32gb is what im looking for
