New laptop

Hi everyone!

I need to buy a new laptop to replace my 12 years old laptop. I didn't look after hardware for a while for some personal reasons.

I will buy something new. My needs are:

  • photo editing
  • video editing
  • vector graphics editing/creation
  • good battery life (I don't want to worry about)
  • web navigating, docs, spreadsheets
  • USB-C charging would be nice

I don't game, and Framework isn't available where I live.

I would be happy to have some recommendation on what is a good hardware for this use and good brand.

Thanks!

Tuxedo computers could be a good fit I think? It's like system76, but from Germany. You can pick from a few OS including an Ubuntu fork they made ( tuxedo os ). You can tweak the laptop yourself ( different you/CPUs/disk sizes/... ) to fit your use case.

Personally I've never bought there, but a friend of mine has and he's happy with his purchase.

Note: I do not work for them, or am affiliated with them in any way.

Looks like my account was marked ( unintentionally ) as bot in my settings. That should be resolved now. I found and updated the setting
