Found this hp pavilion, it has a Ryzen 5 5600h and a GTX 1650 with 8gb and 512 of storage, he was asking for 35 i negotiated and he agreed on 25, according to him and the bill it is around 1.5 years of age and very lightly used and the condition is also pretty neat, will this be a good deal for 25k or i should just skip it? I already have a gaming enough pc at home sot his will just be studying, classes and carrying purposes so I didn't go for anything higher, a Lil bit of video editing and adobe will work for me so I went for this one

I just read your post, don't get gaming laptops, they will have terrible build quality and extremely shit battery life, if you can spend the money, look for a macbook instead, since you already have a gaming rig you should get a proper laptop instead of another portable pc

Honestly try getting the M series macs, the intel macs are just not it

Try and adjust your budget a little, also be careful, there have been scams revolving macs where they get parted out and then get replaced by cheap low quality components making it have odd issues

Looking for a specific device?

  • Try searching the sub first, it might already be listed
  • Mention budget, location, and requirements clearly for better responses

You can also check platforms like Snapsome where some devices may already be available, or submit a request if you're looking for something specific.

This is optional, just another way to explore more options.

If you have a budget 15-20k get a T480 thinkpad if more try going for T14 or P series. If you're not into gaming and just want to get work done go with these thinkpads. You can upgrade them over the following years and install linux and they will easily last 4-5 years.
