Looking for an i7 laptop with decent specs, found this but not sure
What is the best priced laptop with intel core i7 or equivalent and 16gb of ram?
What should a laptop of i7 processor used for?
I live in Canada and I'm looking to buy a new affordable laptop this coming Black Friday/Cyber Monday for work and personal use.
My previous device was a Surface Pro 4 with an Intel Core i7 processor, 256GB solid state drive, and 8GB RAM. I've been using this tablet for school, work, and personal use since November 2015 and it's almost been a decade.
The battery swelled up this year and caused the touchscreen to pop out and get damaged. Rather than spending the money to try and repair it, I thought it's finally time to invest into another durable modern laptop that will hopefully last me another 10 - 12 years.
I'm looking for one that has around the same processing speed and power as the Intel i7 or faster, 256GB solid state drive and 8GB RAM
Even if it isn't a touchscreen, I'm okay with it because I've been dealing with unresponsive shaky touchscreen with my Surface Pro 4 in the last few years.
I won't be doing gaming on it as I have a home console. I will be watching a few streaming videos on it and will use it for online Microsoft Teams video meetings
I want an actual laptop this time around instead of a tablet that's trying to be a laptop.
Here are the specs and price range that I would like to be on it:
-
Intel i7 processor equivalent or faster
-
256 GB solid state drive
-
8 GB Ram
-
At least two USB 2.0 slots
-
an HDMI or mini-HDMI port
-
non-detachable keyboard
-
decent cooling and venting fans unlike my Surface Pro 4 that heats up in 5 mins
-
preferrable price range: $800 - $1000
-
willing to pay up to $1600
Thanks in advance.
