First laptop

[Tomka58]

Hello all, so I never had a laptop before because I didn't needed it and now I want to buy it because I will need it for future studies , also it will be great for me when I won't be at home.I have a dekstop pc which is enought for games that I play, so I don't need laptop for gaming but anyway I think that any budget laptop can handle some really old games.So now I'm confused and I don't know which size laptop to choose 14"(also 13.3) or 15.6" , mainly I want more mobile laptop which is not heavy and looks quite thin , talking about 15.6" they come with little bit better specs for the same price as 14" or 13.3"  so I still don't know which to choose but I prefer 14" and less.So my budget is 300€ , and only from these websites http://www.1a.lt/kompiuterine_technika_biuro_prekes/nesiojami_kompiuteriai_ir_priedai/nesiojami_kompiuteriai https://www.varle.lt/nesiojami-kompiuteriai/nesiojami-kompiuteriai/ and http://www.skytech.lt/nesiojami-kompiuteriai-nesiojami-kompiuteriai-c-86_165_81.html?sand=2&pav=2&sort=5a&grp=1&page=1&pagesize=100 The sites are not in english language but I think it won't make any trouble   , so can you help me with choosing the best 14" ( or less ) laptop and also 15.6" and then I will consider myself which to buy  .

P.S sorry for my bad english

Avoid Acer and HP at that price point.

Definitely avoid 15.6" if you want portability.  Try to get at least 1080p for the screen.

Does acer really that bad? What about ASUS and LENOVO then ?

My budget is only 300€ , and I haven't seen any laptop in my country stores with 1080p for 300€

Specs are good, but it's refurbished and warranty only for 3months also it weights same as many 15.6" , anyway I prefer new laptops.

ThinkPads usually last for over 10 years. A used ThinkPad is the best you can afford

LOL it's a thinkpad if you just take okay care of it, it will last you a life time. If you dont take care of it in anyway well 5+ years
