Before you buy
Choose the exact processor, graphics, RAM and storage configuration for your software and workload. Check upgrade options with the manufacturer rather than assuming RAM or storage can be replaced.
Check display resolution, refresh rate, weight and ports against your desk setup and travel needs. Confirm external-monitor support and the charger supplied with that configuration.
Battery-life claims depend on workload and settings; compare like-for-like tests before relying on them. For a used laptop, inspect the battery, keyboard, hinges and screen, and confirm warranty.
