Hey everyone! I’m planning to purchase a new laptop since I’m starting a construction course and will need to work with AutoCAD and 3D markup tools. I’m aiming for the best value within a 1300€ budget. A touchscreen or a screen to draw on could be really useful, so that’s something to keep in mind 🙂

5. How long should I expect the battery to last?

13. Where are you from?
I live in Ireland

A touchscreen or drawing screen would be a big plus!
