Laptop Suggestions

• Upvotes

Hello, I'm a Media Studies student based in India and I'm looking for suggestions on laptops I could buy for mainly just 2 purposes-

  1. Video and short film editing (I use DaVinci Resolve)

  2. Gaming (Not intense, I kinda just play Roblox, Stardew Valley, Phasmophobia and some of the older Assassin's Creed games)

My maximum budget is about Rs.2.5 Lakhs but I am very much open to suggestions that are well under that price bracket as long as it can deliver to my requirements while also helping me save some money. Links would be appreciated and thank you!

Discussion Recommendations for a Nimo work use centered laptop?

1 Upvotes

Hello hello,

I’m looking for a lower cost, small, lightweight, and reliable laptop that I can use for work. I’ve had my current laptop (MacBook Air 13) since 2020 and she’s lasted me the whole way through college and now a year afterwards. The bad part is that it has always been a lag, then crash, then turn on and act fine kind of computer and I have had to have it constantly plugged in for the better of two years or else it’s dead in two hours or overheating, then lagging, then crashing, and I’m sure you catch my drift.
I’ve attributed the crashes as a quirk (so as not to upset the computer gods) but I think I’m ready to get a computer that’s better for what I do daily.
I use Google Chrome/Drive for most everything and I run minimal editing software like Adobe & Canva.

Any suggestions— even if it’s pointing me away from Nimo would be great, I just want a good computer that I can have & love for the next six years.

Thank you all :)

Request Does Macbook Air 2022 M2 13-inch have almost exactly the same type of display as a Surface laptop 7?

2 Upvotes

My Surface Laptop 7 recently broke (due to likely water damage) and I need a replacement. I recently stumbled across the Apple 2022 MacBook Air which, according to AI (haven't asked a real person yet), is very similar to the Surface laptop 7's display.

I prefer to have a screen with 60Hz, high resolution (~200ppi or a little above), PixelSense Flow LCD (AI told me that it is almost the same thing as LED-backlit IPS LCD), fairly low max brightness when set to minimum brightness, no detected backlight flicker (especially at lower brightness levels), and roughly the same anti-glare coating. I don't need the same exact aspect ratio nor a touchscreen.

I also would like to know if both/neither the Surface Laptop 7 or the Macbook Air 2022 M2 13-inch have temporal dithering/FRC (this could greatly affect the display, according to AI). I would like to know the difference between P3 and standard sRGB and how it may affect the laptop's display.

I am asking all of this because I have light sensitivity issues and most other displays (other than the Surface Laptop 7) seem to bother my eyes.
