Hi everyone!

I need to buy a new laptop to replace my 12 years old laptop. I didn’t look after hardware for a while for some personal reasons.

I will buy something new. My needs are:

  • photo editing
  • video editing
  • vector graphics editing/creation
  • good battery life (I don’t want to worry about)
  • web navigating, docs, spreadsheets
  • USB-C charging would be nice

I don’t game, and Framework isn’t available where I live.

I would be happy to have some recommendation on what is a good hardware for this use and good brand.

Thanks!

    True, but the focus on battery life suggests mobility is a must.

    They could dock the laptop for a desktop experience at home, including a dedicated keyboard, mouse and screens, with a good desk and seating arrangement. A USB C equipped device would be the way to go for this.

    But absolutely agree for price, desktop only is better value.

      Desktop also performs better than laptop with “same” spec cpu, gpu, etc
