    I’m afraid I don’t know much about the company, I’ll look into them. It does seem very decent for the price though! With linux I’d expect you could get alot more battery life with some TLP configuration. I’m just curious why you’d want such a powerful cpu if you already have a steam deck?

      I need a laptop for studying, my current one is heavy and the battery doesn’t last much. + I want something that could last at least 5-6 years if not more.

      My budget is around that price, because i know i will not replace it any time soon.
