12. Please tell us about the brands that you prefer to buy from them and the brands that you don't like and explain the reasons.
Well personally, I had a lenovo notebook for a while and the keyboard keys got loose and the battery was dead after a year or so. But, I don't really have any brands that I like or dislike much, everyone makes mistakes.

13. What country do you live in?
Germany

14. Please tell us any additional information if needed.
As described above the notebook is meant for a mobile 3D Workstation, ideally the notebook does have an touchscreen (big plus!). Another thing is that it should look good and not too thick (since customers / investors will get in contact with it).


My research ended with these results:


But I'm not sure whether they are good or not and I can't decide which of them to take. Maybe you can point me into the right direction and may even come up with something new. I'm looking forward to your answers.

Thanks in advice.
