I’m being ambitious again about things I can’t afford๐ญ.
I really need to buy a laptop I am from a third world country i have a huge currency disparity. But what can I buy for business use. I need a no nonsense laptop with portability and good screen
Josh! What makes you differentiate between gaming laptops and professional ones? Wouldn’t a legion pro 9i or even a zephyrus g16 (2024) be really good for design, video editing and 3d work? Or do you think that for those high prices a macbook pro would just be better? (a zephyrus g16 with a 4090 here costs almost 4000โฌ…). I’m a creative professional. I do graphic design, video editing and like to include some 3d work and well, if I could I’d like to do some gaming on my spare time as well. I’m very confused as where to spend so much money…
does anyone reccomend ideapad slim 3? i see i5 12450h ddr5 and ryzen 5 7530u dd4 same price both laptops for 520euro it is worth?
Hey , can we see a review for any of the Huawei line up
wish you guys did a video about laptops with the most issues by collecting user data on forums. A lot of these machines have the lamest issues I have ever seen. Such as the HP Envy user has posted here already. It is a disgrace honestly how bad thesr manufacturers are.
Hey guys, im a stem student so i want a laptop to last me for a while, i do light gaming like moddrd minecraft and rocket league. I want a laptop that wont be super loud to disturb other students. Any recommendations?
Can you list good 2 in 1 touch screen laptops under 2,000 usd? Can you also provide list of laptops that can also be used as tablet in that price range? Thank you.
Is this the nightfall black or slate blue color?
Why donโt you give away some of the laptops to your followers?
excellent concise informative video, thank you, yoga pro 9 or g14? tough choice
would you choose the zephyrus or the yoga pro?
Hii, I can’t find any test about razor blade 16 ? Is this laptop too recent ? ๐ Thx for the video !! and the website
Help me! I have been watching too many videos and still don’t have clarity on what I might want to get. I currently have an XPS 15 from 2021 for video editing. It’s been awesome and still performs great. I have had to replace 2 batteries and the trackpad doesn’t really click after anymore after 1 year, even after a new keyboard as well. I don’t like the 2024 iterations of the XPS since they took many ports and FKeys away. What is a comparable windows laptop? I’d like to keep it $2000 or less if possible. (editing 4k video)
I’ve been a loyal Apple user for years, but recently have been testing out some Window’s laptops. I’ve tried three different brands, and when using my bluetooth headphones there is serious lag and sync issues when watching Youtube, or any of the streaming platforms. Is this a common Windows problem and can it be fixed?
Hi Josh! Love the descriptive and detailed content! I’ve been stuck bw buying a MBpro and Proart for weeks now. Was wondering if youve done a proart review thus far!
thank you! Love your work
Yoga9i – please add 64G ram slotโคโค
Just got an m16 r2 for $1450 (before tax).
Best deal ever
Josh new subscriber here just want to ask I am looking for a laptop for Graphic Designing and Video editing would you suggest getting the Lenovo Yoga Pro 9i?
It may be a late feedback but when showing the battery results you should show the percentage used where lower is better. Why? you may ask. Let me explain.
Let’s say there are 2 laptops A and B. After 4 hours of Netflix playback A has %90 battery in it while B has %80. If you put them into the graphs like that the average Joe will look at them and say "Oh 80 and 90 is basically the same" But in reality laptop A has used only 10% where laptop B used 20% which actually means Laptpop A’s battery life is 2 times of B.

"budget" "less than 800 dollars"??
hello – thanks for the videos. i would like to get a 2in1 windows ideally, in the $800 – $1400 ish range ideally. however fan noise drives me crazy. i have been using a M1 MBA 8gb/256ssd for a while now. i do love that the MBAs have zero fan noise. considering the 15.6" M3 MBA for $1100 from BestBuy. but, i do like WindowsOS a bit better, and i really would like a 2in1. plus running some games would be nice (just a couple older ones). so i’m kind of torn between the M3 MBA, the HP Spectre, and some Lenovo Yoga options. I’m curious if you (or anyone reading this!) have any advice and in particular what if any windows 2in1 laptops have the least (or zero) fan noise?
the pavilion plus is now $400 off! wow.. but then if you look at the price its $20 more than what you show here… So they just jacked up the price to put a bigger discount amount on it.. shame on HP
Dude, you and your team are the best laptop reviewers on Youtube
As I travel 3-4 weeks a month for work — I find any PC Laptop – I’ve had Dell, HP, Lenovo, and they last about 3 years then I have to replace it. This is due simply to the wear and tear of travel. So while I could afford a $1500 laptop, it just makes sense to me to spend $750 and get a new one every 3 years as no matter what – travel can get rough. I do recommend ONLY get metal chassis laptops as the plastic ones just don’t hold up. My 2 cents. ๐
What is a good laptop under 2000$ with a good OLED display I am searching for one with a mid range gpu and cpu with it

As between the ASUS Zeph g16 vs. Alienware X16 R2 with the same rtx spec, which do you recommend?
Missing the surface๐๐๐
What is the best budget friendly laptop for coding and programming? I’m trying to find something that will get me through college and the beginning of my career.
Order Number
I would put the new Samsung – Galaxy Book5 Pro 360 – Copilot+ PC – 16" AMOLED Touch Screen Laptop – Intel Core Ultra 7 series 2 on top of most here (when it comes to 16" screen). Battery alone is very impressive (in Macbook pro 16 territory)
What about the Surface Pro 11?
Razer seems conspicuously absent
What about 2 in 1 Laptops Josh?
I’m eyeing the Yoga Pro 9i. It’s speakers and sound quality are on par with MacBooks. Mini LED display is gorgeous for those bright scenes and outdoors. And it’s great for gaming. And it slices through video editing like butter. Truly probably the best windows laptop for overall use
Asus best.
I need help deciding between the zephyrus g16 and legion 7i ๐ญ. I’ll be building a gaming PC, so I’ll only need the laptop for editing documents and light gaming on the go. Can you guys please help me๐ซ
Hello there, I was planning on gettting a MacBook Air M3 but as I am starting Mechanical engineering this year I heard that some apps arenโt able to be used with a Mac so I wanted to ask what can ฤฑ get in windows, I liked the Huawei mate 14s model but would it be enough for mechanical engineering education? Thanks
What are your thoughts on the surface studio laptops?
slick audio . period
I get that you recommended a Macbook Pro 14 inch for professionals, I agree 100%… If you can tolerate Mac OS. I can’t. Im happy you included a windows option, but only a 16 inch one. What about the best 15, and 14 windows options? More love for Windows / Linux users, ty.
Lol.. i have M3 macbook and g16 rtx 4090.. rendering video, or anything is similiar if not faster on g16 … Display is better on g16, is also slimer and thiner.. what exactly you find so special on macbook ? Yeah it’s okay device for work, ( if you don’t need windows apps to run) .. but i get the same performance ( and much much better gaming performance ) on G16, with similiar speakers ( best on market in pair with macbook) while having an Oled screen.. as i said, i have both, and i choose g16 and windows every day, any day for work, gaming, watching movies, …… It’s faster, eazier…
In Australia your zenbook 14 is a $2000 computer .. budget haha
I was blown away how good a 2024 Asus Vivobook 15 with an ultra core 9 computer turned out to be after testing – $1500 and it impressed with how much better it did than some higher priced units I have tested.
