Consider these work laptop choices carefully...
Hi,
I’m trying to choose between several replacement laptops and need your help.
My needs:
- Mainly productivity tasks: heavy spreadsheet work, running multiple apps, lots of Teams use.
- No gaming required.
- I’m starting basic coding, mainly database setup/manipulation and maths/stats modeling.
- Current PC has 8GB RAM, i5-1035G7 CPU, no GPU, often freezes.
- Work mostly in office (40%) and at home (60%).
- Connected to monitors at both places; use on the train and occasionally in cafés.
- Size isn’t crucial for me. I’m okay with a bigger or heavier device if it’s better overall.
- Prefer the form factor of the Surface Studio, but it seems to have an older processor and less RAM compared to others.
- Uncertain if the i7-1270P includes a GPU (specs don’t say).
- Storage isn’t important; 512GB is enough for me.
Options include:

Please let me know which one fits best!
I could say
any
of them would be fine.
Maybe shifting to the Surface due to the powerful GPU.
