    Touchscreen, budget? I suspect we have different ideas of what a budget machine is. Doubt I will be buying but best of luck to them anyway.

      Several manufacturers make budget laptops with touchscreens. For what reason? People are fucking dumb. My gf sadly has one of those. A shitty intel i3 laptop with a touchscreen. Completely hardware malnourished but hey you got a touchscreen.

        What is wrong with an i3? As long as you are paying i3 prices there is nothing wrong with that.

          Nothing really. It’s just that you could probably get an i5 withput touchscreen for the same price.

            Well it depends on the price of the laptop. My partner has ryzen 3 and touchscreen although she didn’t care for it having touchscreen. Mostly because it was reduced by a huge amount though, its regular price would not have been worth it.

              I don’t think she got it discounted. I just dislike touchscreens on lower spec machines exactly because they reduce the actual value of the device as it tends tp then have worse internals to accomodate the touchscreen and thus is less likely to last longer.
