specifics?
Budget: 1000$
I tried this first but the discussion got sidetracked
This is so specific I have to wonder why you are even here asking for advice. NewEgg has exactly 5 in-stock laptops meeting these criteria.
my only issue is which brand is RELIABLE. I don't want to spend a 1000$ and spend it again next year.
Down in this price range it’s all cheap plastic and lowest-bidder components. Doesn’t matter which brand you buy, it comes down to how well you take care of it and a bit of luck.
Actual well-built and well-designed machines are close to double your budget.
