I’ve been saving up for a laptop for a long time and decided I want something that will be powerful and reliable for also a long time if I’m spending this much. so the 2 best options seem to be the Slimbook Hero or the Legion 5.
A Legion 5 16IRX9 with an i5-13450HX is around 250EUR cheaper than a Hero with a i7-13620H, a Legion 5 Pro with a i7-13700HX is around 150EUR more expensive than the Hero. Legion has a 3 year warranty, the Hero 2 years.
I don’t know which has a better build quality and if warranty service is better with Slimbook bc you have to ship it to Spain if there is a hardware issue.
What else should I consider?
I have a crazy suggestion but it worked for me. Call pawn shops and ask them if they have gaming laptops. I got a 12th gen i7 with 3070ti 144hz screen MSI Katana for 400. They gave me 200 for my old gaming laptop. There are good deals out there.
