What is the best all-round laptop under £1500?
Hello everyone, I'm searching for a new laptop suitable for light gaming and video editing. It should be lightweight enough for easy travel, so I prefer something not too heavy. I'm looking for a more refined design instead of a typical gaming laptop with an overly flashy keyboard and colors.
Could you please share your budget? I'm thinking around 1500£.
I'm considering a notebook with approximately 15 inches of size.
I need at least a 1080p screen resolution.
Do you have a preference for a portable or desktop replacement? I'm leaning towards portable.
How important is battery life? It's not a strict requirement, but I want it to be flexible.
If yes, which games would you like to play on your laptop? (Low, Medium or High settings). Yes, I'd like League of Legends and Harry Potter Hogwarts Legacy.
Are there any other tasks you'd like to perform with your laptop? (Photo/Video editing, etc.) Video editing is a priority.
Do you require a specific storage capacity? Around 500GB would be ideal.
If you have any preferred retailers, please share their links. No need for specific formats like DVD ROM or Bluray.
How long do you plan to keep the laptop? About 4 out of 5 years.
Which optical drive type would you prefer? DVD ROM, Bluray ROM, or something else? None.
Which brands do you like and which ones you don't? I've used a Dell XPS 15 before and liked it, but I'm open to other options.
Lastly, could you tell me your country of residence? UK.
This option seems promising.
