1. What is your budget?
-- Around 1000 dollars. Preferably on the budget side.

2. What is the size of the notebook and screen resolution that you are considering?
-- Doesn't matter
4. Do you need a portable or desktop replacement laptop?
-- Doesn't matter, Build quality could be good so that it can last long but it's a laptop at the end of the day.

5. How much battery life do you need?
-- This I feel like is kinda important. From the research I've done online so far, it seems like laptops are such an annoyance in battery except mac.

6. Do you want to play games with your laptop? If so then please list the games that you want to with the settings that you want for these games. (Low,Medium or High)?
-- Not the priority at all, that's why I felt the need to ask here, because whole internet is filled with gaming biased advices.

7. What other tasks do you want to do with your laptop? (Photo/Video editing, Etc.)
-- Basic video editing. And I understand that it comes to GPU for video editing like gaming. But for gaming you can like gauge how much gpu can do how much. But for video editing it's unclear. To be honest, so far I've seen that even laptops with 2050 would be good for me rn for basic stuff.

8. How much storage (Hard Drive capacity) do you need?
-- Even 512GB would work. I'll add it by myself down the line if need be.

9. If you are considering specific sites to buy from, please post their links.
-- Third world country, will get it offline.

12. Please tell us about the brands that you prefer to buy from them and the brands that you don't like and explain the reasons.
-- Ok so, where I'm from HP and Asus have good service centers. So, I'll be okay with both of them. Maybe dell too. But I have to stay away from MSI, Razor or lenovo.

13. What country do you live in?
-- Third World

14. Please tell us any additional information if needed.
-- **I will use it mostly for audio production. So, my preference is good CPU. I saw couple good laptops with 13th gen processors but they lack somewhere like either battery or they have straight up intel iris graphics(cheeks). I will need to do some video editing too so atleast 2050 is what I need. And looking at my budget I feel like 2050 is all I can get lol.**

That doesn't help,. You should mention the actual country, since regions can and will have limited availability in parts/hardware. It helps is if you included sits you have access to so we know what we can recommend that you'll be able to buy instead of running around in circles. Currency conversion and taxation can also mean you can't allocate 1,000USD towards the laptop alone when compared to people 'State side.

thanks for pointing it out. I just noticed it's a huggee difference. I shouldn't ask here. I should look in reddit probably in my country's sub. Because I just checked and american's Amazon has 3050Ti Laptops for the same price we are getting 2050. Should probably remove this thread.

Have a look at this: https://store.chuwi.com/products/corebook-x-i5-1235u. That`s about $500 USD. i5 for audio editing. The battery life still not the best though, depends on how much you want to save 500 bucks.
