I guess you gotta buy it used though

Although you need to nuke the hard drive to remove lenovo's terrible bloatware.

The surface 3 may not be too bad an option unless you want a lot of I/O and a real keyboard

Ok so I am 4 weeks into high school and I REALLY need a laptop. I was looking into a 2 in 1 but they are so expensive for just 4gigs of ram and 128 hhd,so I need some help to find one. ( I need a laptop to sum it up lol)

What I will be doing: photoshop and using Adobe premiere pro cc and normal internet research.

How often will I be using this device: Daily

Price range: $700 but preferably $600

Thanks :)

This would be a good choice, 8GB ram, 1TB HDD, and its touchscreen!  :D

^This, actually. I've had an APU laptop before, and for the average consumer, they are brilliant laptops. Some of the most well-rounded consumer-grade laptops I've ever used. They have a fairly decent GPU for a little hardware acceleration, and decent Athlon cores to go with them.

See my post on this. I'm sure there are APU-based laptops out there that have 1080p displays. :)

It's actually really difficult to find a 1080p IPS display on a laptop with an APU, which is very odd because AMD's stuff isn't that far behind intels comparably priced stuff on the mobile side.

I know. My one had a 768p screen... Which is really interesting because the A10-4600M in mine beats the tar out of all iGPUs in its class from Intel. Bit of a shame really. I think there are some entry-level gaming laptops that have A10-FP series APUs. Those will have 1080p screens, guaranteed.

BAM, I found another one. It's $700 though so it's at the top of your price range. Its 1920x1080, with and Intel Core i5. And Toshiba is a good brand, my dad has one and has been over to the dusty, sandy Afghanistan with it and still keeps running lol.  http://www.amazon.com/Toshiba-Satellite-L55W-C5259-Convertible-Touchscreen/dp/B010SBB27U/ref=sr_1_9?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1443836665&sr=1-9&refinements=p_n_availability%3A1248800011%2Cp_74%3A40000-99999%2Cp_85%3A2470955011%2Cp_n_feature_three_browse-bin%3A9647486011
