Hi, I wonder if anyone here would mind giving some tangential, UK-centric advice?
I'm not looking for a gaming laptop at all, just wanting to help a friend facilitate day-to-day computing on a budget.
Parameters are:
- £550 realistic ceiling
- Must be SSD only
- 15" screen (although I might take her to a store to dig into this aspect a bit)
- Lighter is better
- Windows 10 through gritted teeth
- Recognised brand
- Must run Minecraft XD
- Good battery a bonus
I haven't specified things like processor and RAM because that's where I'm (especially!) weak on insight. I'd like the machine to be logically consistent. And not a highstreet pisstake. And anything on an SSD will by default be lightyears ahead of her current machine, performance wise.
I wondered about
this Microsoft Surface GO, hence some dithering about her feelings concerning size. £598.99 including type-cover.
Then again
this Acer seems to be exactly what I'm looking for ...
Any warnings, recommendations or pointers appreciated. Thanks Era x
