  1. You’re the best ever techie reviewer I come across. I ain’t kidding. I learnt a lot of technical stuff from this video. I’ll make a wise choice in buying my next laptop. Thanks mate. Keep it going. ❤❤❤

  2. HI Josh, what do you recommend for a laptop that handles a lot of AI Notebook LM, ChapGPT etc? I have to give up my wonderful little Samsung NP900X Notebook. Amazing with only 4GB memory…

  3. It’s like everyone forgot the Surface RT or? I was retailing when those things came out and after the holiday cycle you couldn’t give the damn things away to college kids eating ramen for free. Even they knew how much they sucked when you needed to run something built on 8086. I really don’t see how this is going to be different because it’s like ok just buy a tablet. I don’t think the influencers understand how much backlash is coming from those.

  4. I got a yoga slim 7x for a total of 730. Fantastic deal. If you want something dramatically better your spending 3 grand I’m happy

  5. Hey Josh, I just check your Channel today and really help me a lot coz i was thinking about to buy the best laptop on bf. 👍🏻😎

  6. Josh, should I buy a asus zenbook 14 oled intel core ultra 7 evo edition or asus zenbook 14 ryzen 7 8840hs for college for just work based learning?

  7. Hello i been looking for a laptop. My options are zenbook 14 either with u7 155h or with 8840HS. I will not play games but i will be doing many database and programming works. Which one should i get or should i wait for ultra series 2 processor laptops from intel(not available in my country yet).

  8. I don’t want a Mac because I had two in the past and each one broke down and had to be scrapped after only five years, because Apple doesn’t make fix ability and extending lifespan a priority. Apple products just don’t last.

  9. apple being recommended for GAMING? most games don’t even release on macOS?
    yes you can use crossover or whisky but why risk dependency on 3rd party apps with questionable developer support when you can just get a windows device and be part of the intended audience

  10. The site cpubenchmark shows a Core Ultra 7 155H (the older Meteor Lake series) as being 22.9% faster in multi-threading than a newer Core Ultra 7 256V (the new Lunar Lake series). These should be comparable processors as they are in the higher-end consumer laptops. So, what gives? Why all the hype over Lunar Lake? Sure they use less power, but it seems like you’re compromising performance?

  11. I don’t get it- if one of the high performance needs is high end games, macs don’t support games. The ending is very confusing.

  12. Been kind of a big question for me: Should I buy a laptop or a PC? I want gaming and schoolwork to take on trips, but my friends say Laptops suck- I personally think not, but I want opinions, optionally professional.

  13. BestBuy has the Asus Vivobook S14 with an OLED screen and Lunar Lake processor for $650. You won’t find a better laptop at that price

  14. Love your videos, only confusing bit for me is when i search up a laptop and its basically not available in Canada. Appreciate your effort though.

  15. I’m not saying that you where payd to promote apple but your casual degrading of people who don’t wont to buy them is ofputing. And you never spoke of price what kind of review is this

  16. Exactly, only stubborn people don’t want MacBook 😅 there is no other good reason to reject MacBook, decent windows laptop is around the same price anyway 🤔

  17. If you are buying a laptop for school/zoom and for dabbling in music editing. Would the intel lunar lake processing laptops be sufficient?

  18. I currently run an MSI Stealth 66 15.4in with i7 10th gen with separate video card and an add on 15in monitor. I upgraded the ram from 16 to 64 and it’s still slow at times and locks up. I stream everything and usually have 4-10 open windows at a given time. Usually a Youtube, several sporting gmes, like football, etc plus might have a game or 3 open like Candy Crush and the others. I get bored easily and like to jump around. The worst thing about this laptop are the internal speakers, very tinny and I run an external usb speaker that helps a ton but takes up a usb port. I run the extra monitor off the Thunderbolt port and it runs great. The battery and fans suck as well, fans are loud and battery only last maybe 5 minutes.
    I’ve never operated a Mac and know nothing about their software, etc so probably should stay away from them. Opinions on what you think I should look into for a new laptop? I’d like to stay under $1500 but open, HELP.. Thanks

  19. I’m a college student and I’m stuck between a MacBook Air or the zenbook s14. I mostly just need it for studying,homework, and using Microsoft office

  20. Thank you for the video! What do you think of the Dell Latitude 5455? Specifically, how does it compare to the Microsoft Surface 7?
