Recommend me a laptop

Hey everyone!

So I'm currently looking to buy a good laptop for school, and I'm looking for the perfect laptop. This mean 16gb of ram, at least 13 inch screen bigger better, SSD between 256GB or more and Quad core processor i5 or i7. I will use  my laptop for programing, low Photoshop work, and web thing. Also very important it needs to be thin like an Ultrabook, and I don't really care about ports I'll just buy dongle.

 

Budget is around 1000$ to 1700$ Canadian dollar

 

I look at the Haweai Matebook pro but god it's expensive for only 8gb of ram

 

Also I look at the Asus zenbook s but idk

ASUS Vivobook 15, get an extra 8GB stick of RAM, get a M.2 SSD for some M.2 SSD and 1TB HDD goodness on the go and you're all set. Comes standard with a Core i5 quad core anyways (Core i5-8520u). Just don't use the webcam or else you'll be in for massive disappointment.

I have a Dell XPS 13 but I think that I paid more than $2k for it. I really love this thing though and highly recommend it. I've seen good reviews of the HP Spector and LG Gram so I'd check them out as well.

I did look at this laptop before but the one thing that changed my mind is the fact that it does not have a backlight keyboard witch is something I forgot to mention.

Yeah, unfortunately, the Dell XPS 13 with the quad-core i7, 16TB of RAM, 256GB SSD, with the 1080p display is $2k. The LG Gram seems like a good option.

I'll be damn, just found that out now.

 

For those specs and that budget you are almost limited to Asus Zen Books, I found these two though.

Hi there,

 

my daily driver has been HP - Envy x360 15-cn0007 for months now and I must say, that I am able to recommend it maybe even as the perfect package for you.

With specs like:

  •  Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-8550U CPU @ 1.80GHz, 1992 Mhz, 4 Core(s), 8 Logical Processor(s) up to 4GHz TurboBoost(TM)
  • DDR4-2400 SDRAM, 16 GB (2 x 8 GB)
  • it also comes with dedicated graphics card NVIDIA GeForce MX150 with 4GB GDDR5 memory
  • it is equipped with the 512 GB PCIe® NVMe™ M.2 SSD
  • for the sound you will get Bang and Olufsen speakers
  • you will get Full-HD 15.6 Inch display
  • fingerprint sensor
  • 2x USB 3.0 Ports
  • 1x USB-C Port
  • 1x HDMI Port
  • SD card reader
  • Headphone jack
  • It weighs just about 2kg
  • The battery at high performance will last about 4-5 Hours

It is a very stylish and thin looking laptop which doesn't lack of looking good.

 

I hope you find it useful.

 

Peace!
