So, I’m planning on buying myself a (second-hand) laptop once I get the money. I’m nowhere near tech-savvy so it has to be easy to use, but also I want something that is built to last, as opposed to certain (looking at you, Apple) devices that are desinged to become unusable within a next couple of years.

Any recommendations?

    Look up an iFixit teardown or technicians manual for whatever model you fancy.

    Decide on what you’re seeing if it’s too much of a bother. Avoid models that use glued assembly, try to aim for a model that supports eGPUs.

    You’ll also want to consider putting a fresh SSD in whatever laptop you find.
