I need a new laptop ! A little help here !

post #1 of 8
Thread Starter 

Hey guys,

I will be in NYC in June and I want to buy a laptop there, because they are half price than here.

So, some weeks ago I started looking for one and .. Oh my god ! Now I just so close of become crazy. There are so many optiones, and so many bad reviews and so many points of view.

Searching I ended here, so I thought, maybe someone with more knowledge can help me find a good one.

I just know that I wanna a light laptop, 14' inches (can be 15' if its light), i3 or i5 procesor, no more that 750 dollars.

With HDMI, Windows 7, 4 GB RAM, at least 3 USB ports, Mic & web cam incorporated, Wifi, good battery life, SD card reader, DVD+-RW, protected disk mecanism in case of fall, multi tocuh pad (Im not sure if this is good . what do u think ?)

and a good international warranty.

And if its also a pretty laptop better.

Also it must have a good wide screen and good speakers.


I dont want a Mac, because here its not so common and also are too expensive.

 

I like Sony, but Im concern afterwards I will need to add only Sony Peripherals.


I liked HP, but so many friends had different issues with them (overheating, stripes on screen, bad video cards, etc)

 

I liked also a Toshiba L655 series (so cheap in Amazon), and then I found forums with a fan trouble (aparently the fan never go off)

 

What do u think about this ones ...

You don't need to use Sony peripherals for Sony notebooks, and personally I have no issue with HP. Since moving to the core i architecture, I have not heard any heat complain from HP myself.

From your list - either the HP or the Toshiba is good (core i5)

Hey .. what about this one compared with the other ones ?

 

http://espanol.bestbuy.com/enes/site/ASUS+-+Laptop+/+Intel%26%23174%3B+Core%26%23153%3B+i5+Processor+/+14%22+Display+/+6GB+Memory+/+640GB+Hard+Drive+-+Bamboo/1773105.p?skuId=1773105&id=1218290442043

 

The only doubt I have is if WIMAX is compatible with Wireless-A+B+G+N (includes it ??). Because only has WIMAX.

 

And also I wanna if this laptop has wireless TV connection (I dont remember how is it call)

 

Thanks,

Marcelo

Ok .. one question less

http://www.bbspot.com/reviews/asus-u43f-bba6-laptop-with-an-intel-core-i5-processor

 

On the wireless side you can use the built-in 802.11 b/g/n Wi-Fi universe or the embedded WiMAX 4G mobile broadband adapter

 

 

So ... what do u think ? Go for it ?

ASUS Bamboo looks nice - and good support within Europe. I could care less for the WiMAX ding winknudge.gif Good price. So sure - why not? If you do get it , we "want" a personal review smile.gif
