hi im looking for a new laptop and what better website to ask than epicmemefia

what im looking for:

  • price below $800
  • ssd, nothing below 128gb
  • 15" or smaller
  • intel core i5 or higher
  • touchscreen
  • win10 is a must. nothing below
  • 2 usb ports
  • 360 swivel would be SUPER nice

just seems like its impossible to sift through options on google so i thought i might ask if anyone can recommend something. not ALL of the above criteria have to be met, especially the touchscreen thing, but the ssd and win10 things are really important.

ive heard good things about lenovo, which is popular among college students like myself, but i have enjoyed hp and dell in the past

how you expect us to recommend a laptop if you aint gonna tell us what you plan on using it for
i.e. gaming, browsing, just school, video editing, 3d modeling, etc etc etc etc etc


mostly schoolwork, a couple of games, adobe products
