For some reason this is the only place where this model is sold but yeah. Btw I'm located in New Zealand and this Laptop is priced about $1472 in NZ currency ($984 in US). Laptops in my country atm are bery expensive tbh. Most thin and light gaming laptops i like are lieke around $2600 rip :C. Anyway is this laptop good? and any suggestions?

PS: Want to use the laptop for mild gaming and school work.

Don't buy a laptop just for gaming, there are options to use external GPU and you get a lightweight device to work on the go with...

these costs much more, the dock itself needs thunderbolt or wifi slot. needs extra psu to work.

a bit overpriced with these specs.

in other places, we could get ryzen 4600h / 4800h , 16gb ram and 1650.

eg some asus a15 models

imo 1650 on laptop is enough for mid 1080p gaming

Yeah but uh... cheapest one i can find is like $2000... At that point i would just buy a razer blade for its thin and lightweight build.

It's amazing how good deals you can get on used electronics, just saying buying everything new isn't always the way to go.

If you find an old laptop with express card slot on either side, this will work great: https://aliexpress.ru/item/33025623516.html?spm=a2g0o.detail.1000014.27.6ed88e9dfiUouZ&gps-id=pcDetailBottomMoreOtherSeller&scm=1007.14976.165864.0&scm_id=1007.14976.165864.0&scm-url=1007.14976.165864.0&pvid=5a8d2c2c-fc85-4123-8261-7499c49ff636&_t=gps-id:pcDetailBottomMoreOtherSeller,scm-url:1007.14976.165864.0,pvid:5a8d2c2c-fc85-4123-8261-7499c49ff636,tpp_buckets:668%230%23131923%2347_668%23808%233772%23992_668%23888%233325%233_4976%230%23165864%230_4976%232711%237538%23711_4976%233104%239653%234_4976%233141%239887%232_668%232846%238114%23704_668%232717%237564%23641_668%231000022185%231000066056%230_668%233422%2315392%23173
