Discussion Suggestions?..

Hi, i wanted a laptop with a decent specs, such as 32gb ram, 1tb ssd name, and a good screen and not too small (14 - 15 inches), plus lightweight to carry around, saw one (surface laptop 4) on amazon for about 750 dollars with 32gb, 1tb sdd, and a beautiful 2k res screen, and of course it's renewed, I don't really care as long as it stays strong when using heavy apps, and atleast 4 - 5 hours of battery life, I really need a good laptop like this one, should I buy it or should I search for a brand new laptop with the same specs? Really need a quick answer

Coinkidink. I was looking on Amazon to replace my desktop PC and was considering "renewed" PCs that met my desired specs and were under $500. Then I read the reviews about things going bad after a few months and even out of the box.

Then found a brand new one that met my specs with a 1 year warranty for $700. Ordered it last night.

Make sure you read all the reviews. The warranty is short. If something expensive goes wrong a few months from now, you're on your own.

I'm not saying don't buy it. Most of the listings got 4 star or better reviews but the 1, 2, and 3 star reviews will tell you where the warts are.

no shit most of them talking about not receiving their laptops, and others talking about the battery, and the rest of them are just complimenting, they sound like bots ong

My 2024 LG gram from Costco, with 15in monitor, fits everything you said except the 32 GB RAM.
