I need a laptop for university work. I was looking at laptops under PKR 50,000 and the Lenovo Ideapad 305-15iBD was the best I could find. If anyone here owns this laptop, can you please leave a review below?

Everyone else, do you think this is good enough for a CS major? Any recommendations?

Thank you.

For CS major the laptop seems to be fine. I will suggest also look Acer Aspire E5 574. It comes with 6 Generation corei5 and you will find it under 50k as well.

My sister's old Shahbaz Sharif laptop finally gave way and I am looking into buying a new one for her. I can spend up to 60Ks.

The general requirements:
1) Should have a long battery.
2) No need for a graphic card. General usage will be watching/downloading/streaming tv shows & movies. Listening to music.
3) Should look pretty. :dance4:
4) Be easily available NEW in a reliable store in Lahore.

Would really appreciate some help in this regard.
Thanks All!

I've been quoted a price of around 60k. I'm looking forward to play DotA 2 on it primarily. But I do want it to be able to run other games in good graphics too.
Would like an opinion if it's worth the trade.
(Currently inquiring if the piece is boxed and has warranty)

Other laptop recommendations are welcome too.

Salam!I want to buy a laptop. Budget is around 80k. Laptop must be lightweight (around 1.8kg or less). 1080p display, core i3/i5/i7. Preferably 7th/8th gen. Dedicated GPU is a plus. I've already seen galaxy and czone websites. Didn't find any suitable one. I can also import from USA but it would cost me around 10k for it. So my laptop budget then would be 70k (plus 10k for import).Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated.Thanks!

    You reap what you sow. This is what happens when you take away choice from consumers. Even with 88% split going to developers, they can't recoup costs. Meanwhile, Helldivers 2 is a massive hit for Sony thanks in big part to Steam.
