Do not get a Thinkpad if you're using it for graphic design. The screen color calibration is terrible (even when compared to low end devices)
Last I checked I think some of the Dell laptops have a decent screen (XPS, latitude lines). But they tend to be more on the pricer side.
oh i see! , ill check the XPS, my budget is around $1,000ish USD, see what i can find
I had nothing but bad experiences with my xps. Two fan failures and now a battery failure in the last few years.
i second this. I've owned 2 so far, the 2017 model and the refreshed 2020 model. Both have had their share of overheating issues, awful audio drivers (baked in wavemaxx sound "enhancement" that cannot be removed), hardware issues, etc. Would not recommend. The only thing they have going for them is they look so damn good
