  • Total budget (in local currency) and country of purchase. Please do not use USD unless purches?

$1000 US.

  • Are you open to refurbs/used?

No

  • How would you prioritize form factor (ultrabook, 2-in-1, etc.), build quality, performance, and battery life?

I would like it to be 2-1, idc too much about the battery life if its worth it idc carrying the charger with me 24/7, I would like 1TB and if it come with a pen it be great but not nesesarry.

  • How important is weight and thinness to you?

Idc about the weight or thinness that much i j don't want it to be like a bulking gaming laptop but rather sum that looks a bit more professional.

  • Do you have a preferred screen size? If indifferent, put N/A.

14-16in

  • Are you doing any CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? List which programs/games you desire to run.

I'm a CS major so i want something I can use to multitask but also run some light gaming like rocket legue and dbd

  • If you're gaming, do you have certain games you want to play? At what settings and FPS do you want?

games stated above, idc about crazy graphics but 60fps would be good enough

  • Any specific requirements such as good keyboard, reliable build quality, touch-screen, finger-print reader, optical drive or good input devices (keyboard/touchpad)?

as long as the perfomance is good idc really care about the keyboard quality, I want it to have hdmi input, atleast 2 usb ports(the more usb ports the bett, and a usb-c port, and ofcourse touch screen

  • Leave any finishing thoughts here that you may feel are necessary and beneficial to the discussion.

I bought a lenovo yoga 7 2 weeks ago and it was a good choice but after the first week my screen started bugging and acting as if something was touching it and it doesn't allow me to game or do work so is usuless. I asked for a replacement but they said they don't got more in stock so i'm getting a refund so that one is out of the question + idk about trusting lenovo again. Again Idc if everything is perfect but I just don't want it to give me issues, has 1 tb memory and i know I could play a game or 2 from time to time that's more then enough for me.
