United States $1000 budget but ideally around $800 Open to refurbs Screen size 14” and up Any weight, preferably under 4 lbs Daily use would be for work but would also use for entertainment and light gaming Regular laptop is fine but touchscreen or 2-1 would be a bonus I work in healthcare so I typically have an EMR system, multiple tabs open and streaming Spotify consistently. I’m always at a desk so I don’t need a super long battery life but 8+ hours would be nice. I went to school for interior design so I use it for artsy/creative projects as well, although it’s not professionally. My current computer doesn’t handle SketchUp well and I would say that’s a main program I use. I don’t have AutoCAD/Revit but would be nice to have space for those kinds of things if I wanted to in the future. With that being said, graphics are probably important but not at the very top. I purchased my current laptop in 2015 and she’s been amazing and still going strong, just not strong enough lol. Also can no longer update windows. It’s an ASUS Q551LNB and originally bought for school. I’m a big fan of ASUS and have been looking at vivobooks but open to suggestions. Thank you!!

Since you prefer 2 in 1, I would recommend Lenovo Yoga because it comes with : Specs: Screen: 14" WUXGA OLED CPU : AMD 6-core Ryzen AI 5 340 Ram : 16GB Storage : 512GB SSD Why I am recommending it: Very good CPU for work tasks. Good Battery life. Please note I'm using affiliate links which means I'll receive a small percent of the purchase if you use this link at no extra cost to you
