first.
15w i7 is ALWAYS a robbery for 100usd. you should know it guys, you are professionals. you should say it all the time, to help us, customers. do you understand? help us, not manufacturers.
second.
i bought 2 mainstream 17inch last year, lenovo and hp. four cores i5 and ryzen 5. 4 memory and mech drives. i added another 4 and 250gb ssds.
the result-a bargain, less than 600euro both.
900usd for a cheap platform is not good. ALL the top configurations of a budget platforms not worth a money. wallet is empty but want something worthy-buy the best screen and cpu and upgrade memory and storage.
(and look at bezels color. this thing is screaming im cheap as hell. for 900usd lol)
third.
that screen is a complete crap. no excuses. there is no such thing as "but cheap, but narrow bezels, but ips, but whatever". there are no reasons to buy 230nit&37%argb if other guys offers you 300/60%.
ears&eyes guys, the 2 most valuable things. screen&noise not speakers or webcam.
laptop is silent tho, nice to see.
