Hi guys,
Looking for a new laptop with a budget of probably max £800-£850
I've found 2 which seem to fulfil what I'm looking for (links below) however I've seen 2 potential problems with both:
Lenovo Ideapad U410
Sony E Series
The Lenovo seems to have a big problem with picking up wifi which hasn't been solved (otherwise I would probably go with this), whilst I'm hesitant to go with Sony laptops as my Girlfriend's family has had a number of them and they didn't seem to last very long without screwing up (not sure if that's due to how they were looked after etc....) and they are now onto Macbooks
I'm wondering if anybody has any recommendations for something similar to what's seen above.
What I'm looking for is:
No more than £800-800
Not larger than 15" screen (preferably 14" but meh)
Dedicated graphics
Intel i5 CPU (pref Ivy Bridge)
6gb ram+
Blu-Ray drive would be nice but not essential
Obviously would like a Macbook or w/e but don't have the budget for something like this, and not interested in an older refurb model/2nd hand
Anybody have any recommendations?
Thanks
