Hey everyone.
Need some advice on a few laptops so I'll keep it as short as possible.
Many thanks.
What I'm after:
General every day use including Photoshop from time to time. Nothing silly like 10000x 1000000MB photos either.
No gaming but sure why not some room for it if possible within budget... Have a pc and ps3 for that anyway.
What's important:
A beautiful crisp looking screen; very big on how things look on screen
Snappy every day performance
Size:
13"+
Hard drive size does not bother me as I have a 16GB usb 3 if i need to transfer stuff back and forth over from pc to laptop e.g few movies etc, besides i would most likely rip it out and put an ssd in to it.
Design
Really like the look of ultra books (thin sleek and good looking) but if you want anything decent spec... well I cannot see the money justified.
Backlit keyboard would be nice but rather a good solid build.
Budget:
500.00-1000.00
2nd or 3rd gen cpu, discrete gpu or not to bother at this price range, avail. Option of upgrading it and price?
Ram standard or 1600mhz? possible to upgrade to higher?
i3 complete poo or at least i5?
Here's a few i think are ok, please feel free to look around site if can be bothered to spot something better value, or perhaps direct from manufacturer. So much for keeping it short... Anyway clueless with laptops so thanks again.
