Hi Brij,
I am looking for a laptop to make videos, watch videos, watch movies, flexible, and lightweight as I travel a lot. I was thinking of the Lenovo Flex 2. What do you think about it?

I was looking into the Lenovo Z510 because it seems like a good fit for me but I am not able to find it anywhere online. When I used the link to buy it on amazon it takes me to the Lenovo G50 which is not what I’m looking for. Do you know of a place/website that I can purchase it from?

Are the Lenovo G50 and ASUS X550 the only ones with DVD players? I am debating between these two…what are the major differences between them? Would you recommend one over the other? (All-Around use, more business, less gaming, battery life and weight are not very important, but durability is.)
Thanks!
Hey Jason,
Obviously there are many laptops with DVD players but these are best all-round performing laptops of this month. There are 2 models of Lenovo G50 so I am not sure with which model you are comparing Asus X550. If you are comparing with this one then definitely it is the one to go with right now. It has got i7 processor and 8 GB of RAM which might not be available in any other laptop under $600.
Hi Brijesh,
I am looking for a laptop for video/audio editing, game development (Unreal Engine 4 specifically), programming, watching videos and gaming.

Hi Brijesh,
I was looking at Acer Aspire E5-573G-52G3 per your recommendation but in amazon there was one that said “newer” model, Acer Aspire E 15 E5-574G-52QU and it was cheaper for $549. The processor seemed to be a newer generation but not sure why it would be cheaper. What do you think about this laptop?
Thanks for your time,
Leo
Hey Leo,
Laptop manufacturers manufacture laptop at very low costs and generally they try to get up to 20-30% profit out of it. Sometimes they decrease prices of laptops to divert potential buyers to their product. I am not 100% sure about the reason but this could be the agenda behind it.
From buyers perspective that laptop is definitely more powerful than older one and you should definitely buy newer version of laptop at cheaper price.
Thanks Brijesh for your advice, I ended up getting the one you recommended originally because the new model’s shipment date was estimated out 4 to 6 weeks and found the version you recommended with a comprobable price range. Great website, thanks again!

According to me Asus’s Zenbook is the best laptop with configuration you asked but it’s little bit expensive than $600 (Asus Zenbook on Amazon), but it’s worth for money.

Hey subash,
Acer Aspire E5-574G-52QU is the best laptop you can buy under $600 right now. I have personally used it and I found it really good laptop. I would like to know where you read it’s bad reviews because I have seen only good reviews of this laptop. According to me you should go for it…
Hey, I am looking for a laptop that can run games on decent graphics while also being able to run adobe programs, it would need to have a lot of storage for school and be under $600, any suggestions?
Hi Cameron,
The best laptop currently under $600 is, Acer Aspire E15 (4th in the list – check price on Amazon) but unfortunately it has 256GB SSD. I would recommend you to buy it because it is really a great laptop. You can buy external hard drive with it, if you need more storage.
