Consider getting a desktop for home use and a more affordable laptop for mobility. You won’t regret having two dedicated devices.

I don’t need a laptop for work. My lifestyle requires me to travel frequently, which is why I’m looking for a portable high-performance setup.

At the high-end level, build quality is generally very good across all major brands. I’d recommend the Zephyrus or Legion for their balance of performance and portability, or the ROG if you’re looking for a more budget-friendly option.

From my experience in repairs, I would advise against choosing Acer, Dell, Lenovo, or Gigabyte due to the design issues I’ve encountered. However, for straightforward office work without demanding tech needs, brands like Lenovo might still be a viable choice.

How about Lenovo ThinkPads, specifically the E16? I’m considering it for basic office tasks and want it to last 4-5 years.

ThinkPads are generally well-designed and should meet your needs adequately, though I’m not a fan of repairing them.

I previously owned a Gigabyte Aero 17 HDR, which was an excellent machine. I regret selling it.

While individual experiences vary, my reluctance stems from witnessing Gigabyte’s poor handling of valid warranty claims.

Lenovo Legion is a solid choice for a high-performance laptop with good build quality.

I own a Legion Pro 7 and absolutely love it. It fits well within your budget and offers excellent performance.

Consider OMEN by HP for another good option in high-performance laptops.
