Recommend Laptop ~1.25k Max USD

[CoolaxGaming]

Hello Everyone!

I am going to be buying a laptop soon, I have a maximum budget of 1250 USD.

Now let me make one thing clear, this laptop will NOT be used for gaming. I am going to be using this for casual day to day stuff. No editing or anything like that.

This will mainly be used for browsing, watching videos, writing documents etc.

Here are things I want prioritized - 

- Must be light

- Good screen

- Thin

- Good keyboard

- At least 8GB of ram?

Something like that, suggest ahead!

Surface Book is pretty good, though switched w/ Razer Blade for better GPU. https://www.microsoft.com/surface/en-us/devices/surface-book

 

You might also want to try the Razer Blade Stealth, though the screen's a bit small. http://www.razerzone.com/store/razer-blade-stealth

 

Why that much for bad specs though. I'd say 500-800 dollar range is the sweet spot there.

The surface book was my original "look" but it does not seem to be upgradeable, and is a bit too expensive, I think about 1350.

How good would a Dell XPS be?

depends on what you values you have. The xps 15 has all of this: Must be light - Good screen - Thin - Good keyboard(not as good as a thinkpad of cause ) - At least 8GB of ram.

SB is probably the most modular one you can get. Wait for Polaris.
