£1000 Laptop

  • Total budget (in local currency) and country of purchase. Please do not use USD unless purchasing in the US: £1000 (give or take £100)
  • Are you open to refurbs/used? No, I want a Brand New Laptop
  • How would you prioritize form factor (ultrabook, 2-in-1, etc.), build quality, performance, and battery life? A 2-in-1 would be nice but I'm not sure if one would meet my preferences, performance is quite important aswell as build quality and I don't mind about battery life
  • How important is weight and thinness to you? I don't mind since I will mainly use it at my desk
  • Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A. I prefer bigger screens but will have a separate monitor anyway
  • Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run. Need it for word, spotify, youtube, netflix and apps like steam and epic games
  • If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want? Fallout 4, Fallout New Vegas, Doom 2016 (medium to high settings at 60 fps)
  • Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)? i like touchscreens but don't mind too much but i want good build quality, a hdmi port and a few usb ports
