Also let me tell u a important point before getting a laptop , human eye can't even differentiate between a 3mp and 5mp image , so wasting around 150$ extra for a 1080p display for laptop is non-sense , instead get a good msata ssd in that price and increase ram

Almost all laptops from mainstream brands are more or less the same, so it comes down to what you prefer. I'd say go for the one made by HP (ProBook in particular). They've top notch build quality I've seen on a portable PC yet.

I've asked my friend and here are the preferences he listed:
1) Should be 1080p
2) Dedicated graphics to be able to run CoD, FIFA, NFS, etc.
3) Touch, backlight and SSD optional
4) HDD size should be 1TB
5) Should have optical drive

So suggest away and please link any sites if you can

P.S, he likes Dell more

1080p with dedicated GPU in this range is difficult
I Have an touchsmart ,don't know the exact model
Fhd
6 hours battery
Beautiful all aluminum body
Excellent beats speakers
Dedicated 2gigs nvidia
Touch
Backlight keyboard
Ssd +1tb hard disk
12gigs ram 8 gigs crucial vengeance and another 4 gigs 1600mhz ram
i7 4700mq quad core
It may a little above his range but is the best.bet .....
Also if he is planning on gaming,lower res would be better as even the 750m ddr5 has issues with games on fhd......

The U series processors are a no go for gaming and performance

Why don't you go out to the market and check devices with your friend, always use and check before buying , I have seen only some refurbished envy laptops online
We have a very tight schedule mate. We are in Uni till 5pm so its hard to go to the market for searching. But I'll tell him to search I just want to know any specific models that might be better than the rest in the price range and specifically new

[MENTION=123761]winchester khan[/MENTION] according to homeshopping it has a AMD Radeon 8750M 2GB alongside the onboard HD 4600
If you get a laptop with 8750m , make sure that its gddr5 variant , but even the gddr5 variant for 8750m is slower than GDDR3 740M AND NVIDIA HAS MUCH BETTER DRIVERS AND GAME OPTIMIZATION FOR FOR LAPTOP GPUS AFAIK...
I HAVE PERSONALLY USED BOTH THESE GPUS

@winchester khan apart from the Lenovo these were the only 2 with dedicated graphics and non U processor but the tradeoff is that they are core i5 instead of i7. Also according to some reviews the 8750M's GDDR3 and GDDR5 variants are almost identical in performance due to the GDDR3 model having a higher core clock
