Hello everyone. I was looking to buy a new laptop and was hoping for your input.
Following the community guidelines:
1) Budget: <$650
2) 15.6"
3) Don't mind the bulkiness of the laptop. It'll just sit on my desk most of the time.
4) I'd like at least 5 hours of battery life.
5) I'd like to play games like LoL on low-medium settings. Wont be using it for hardcore photo/video editing, just occasional amateur stuff.
6) I would REALLY like an SSD for faster bootup times and snappy response.
7) Don't need an optical drive.
8) I don't want a 2 in 1 or touch screen. I'd much rather have that money in other laptop components.
I would love a good IPS display and decent build quality.
I will mostly use it for watching movies, doing school work, surfing the internet with 20 tabs open simultaneously
and playing occasional games and doing occasional video editing.
Now the issue is that the only laptops that fit these criteria are around $1000 dollars (the XPS comes to mind) and I really don't have the option of buying used laptops. I've been using the HP envy sleekbook 6 for around 5 years now and I absolutely hate it. Hinge broke 4 times, battery is worthless (stays plugged in 24/7), terrible overheating problems etc etc.
I just want to save myself another heartbreak any buy a good laptop
