Which Laptop? Any help appreciated

Hi all, I am looking for a new laptop. I currently have an ASUS I5 5200, 2.2Ghz, 8GB and no SSD ...I have seen the below laps but really have no idea.

Some are cheaper, but the money isnt that important (would prefer under £500 or not much over), just not sure which one is best...some light gaming, mostly used for net, YouT etc.... Has to be fast...cant stand hanging around to open tabs etc...

1. ebuyer.com/883…als


2. cclonline.com/pro…25/


3. currys.co.uk/gbu…Ltd


Are any of these good and if so which one is the best one ?

I would look at the Lenovo in your link and the HP15s in the link above, although more expensive it has a 500GB SSD.

I would steer clear of the Medion due to support issues. I have been involved with numbers of their laptops over the years and the failures and support have been bad.

The Acer in your link is a good product in the price range.

Medion is rated "Bad" with 1.7 / 5 on Trustpilot

Here is a link for the acer I posted and their not yellow cases as in my earlier link, though the link provides a page of products.
Amazon.co.uk: ASUS VivoBook X512DA 15.6

The HP250 G6 above is an i7 Processor.

The others above are all good laptops in the price bracket you mentioned.

What are you confused about, can we help you further.

Thanks for the input. I guess I am asking...what would you get with these options? I want something fast, decent battery life, not too worried about HDD size as I also have a usb ext and will be able to give to my youngest for a little gaming (minecraft, sims etc)....Thanks again ,your help is most appreciated

Sorry not sure if you mean what comes with the systems mentioned or which one I would buy.

lloydyd Publish time 2-12-2019 03:00:42

which one would you buy, knowing my requirements? it is a minefield with so many options for a noob like me...thanks again

Would you want a DVD/CD player included?

lloydyd Publish time 2-12-2019 03:00:42

if it means I would get a better laptop then I am not too bothered about that

techquest Publish time 2-12-2019 03:00:43

Having had a good look at this I suggest you look at these. They are purchased direct from ASUS, so you might get a better deal if you shop around, though their current offer is a good deal. You might also want to wait for Black Friday deals which will start to show 22/11/19, Black Friday is 29/11/19 followed by Cyber Monday 2/12/19.

Neither of these has a DVD/CD but you can always get an external one if needed

The display on these is Full HD so also good for watching movies etc.

If you can afford to go to £529.99 it has the higher spec i7 CPU,but in all honesty for what your going to use it for you would be okay with the i5 CPU, which is an excellent processor.
