A Lenovo Thinkpad would suffice.

You can be on the lookout for a T480. Please note the alphabet. It is a T, not E or L or Ideapad.

T480’s price has been going up lately. T480 is a 14 inch laptop. If you want a 15 inch, you can pick the T580 lenovo. Same internals, just a bigger screen and a bigger keyboard with number pad. This would cost you almost 10k more.

T580 is still cheaper and you should get a clean one at least 8gb RAM and at least 256GB SSD within your budget. Dont get HDD. If you can get 16gb and 512GB in that range, the better.

When getting the laptop, please ensure the following:
The screen is 1080p or more. Full HD and not HD
The BIOS is not locked.
Computrace is not activated on the BIOS
There is no active supervisor password on the BIOS
Ensure it has backlit keyboard. Test before paying.
Confirm it is SSD.
i5 or i7 intel will work.
Check battery and ensure it has two batteries. If one battery, skip.

Hi, I'm thinking of extending my budget to around 300k and now from my research I've found t490s(the seller said it has 6+ hrs battery life), ThinkPad X1 carbon and Dell Latitude 7400. All with good reviews. and all are i5 8th gen, min of 8gb ram.

The thickness and weight of the t480 seems concerning to me.

What's your advice for me?

danielclerkson:
Your budget is more than enough if it is for only web dev and school work, but i recomend going for a PC with very good spec, it may come in handy in the future

I'm sorry, is there a difference between a PC and a laptop?

Huge thanks for the extensive guide.

SirLakes:
Get a clean ThinkPad 8th gen and max it to like 8g ram or more, 72w external battery, 250/500g SSD


And enjoy!!!!

Thanks for the recommendation, will make my research.

Good day peeps, please I only have a budget of 250k, what laptop can I get for this price.

I need a laptop with good battery life and decent processor. I would be using it primarily for school works and for my web development learning.

Of course I know my best bet would be UK used ones.

Thanks.

Though this might not be totally related to this thread but it seems there are people here with the know-how of receiving funds internationally.

I have a Visa prepaid card and I would like to transfer some of its balance into my bank account but I don't know how to go about it. I need the money in naira for a local purchase please I need your help.

Although I don't use Payoneer/geegpay/wise/grey yet, I was thinking if they can be funded with the card then converted to naira and transferred into my local account?

Thirdly, come back here and share sales report after completing 1 and 2.

Thanks for this.

Straight up to the point, I'm a newbie here and I'd like to know more about the buying and selling model, how it works et cetera...

My humble request is that I need a direction. What number of pages, starting from the first page, should I read to get grounded in how this works? What other resources are there for newbies like me to familiarise myself with?

Please bosses, just give me a direction on how and where to start. Don't read without dropping your opinion, pleaaase.
