I am going to buy a InfinityBook Pro 15 - Gen9 - AMD by TUXEDO. A bit over budget for you, but i definitely think it's worth the price (1300€). The company is devoted to supporting Linux and offers a wider range of personalization on your laptop (Keyboard, OS installed etc etc).

Also, worth noting: 5 years of warranty is pretty nice.

EDIT: Framework is very expensive in my opinion. If you are willing to spend 1600€, then have a look at TUXEDO or System76. For that price range you will make more value out of your money.

I mostly pay for the unlimited email alias, the password manager is free by itself.

I was using Bitwarden before, but the unlimited email alias sold me on Proton Pass, and 1$ monthly is nothing for not getting spam anymore.

Thanks for the heads up, I will definitely keep that in mind.

That's strange that they would not help you out.

Are you still using their Proton VPN? How is it? I am with NordVPN, and I have been using it for more than 5 years, and it is crazy fast and so many servers are available.

I am the same, I normally take care of my laptop and smartphones.

It is the offer if you subscribed in the first month they launched Proton Pass.

If you want privacy, sadly, you will have to pay. I am currently using Proton Pass (special offer 1$ monthly), you get a good password manager, plus unlimited email aliases.

Proton is also known to be one of the best Email Providers based on good privacy.

Thank you for your solid feedback! 😊

Probably 10+ hours on normal usage. (Document Editor, Video Streaming etc) Anything more demanding will cut the battery life for sure.

Ye, but this Laptop is advertised for 10+ hours of battery life, and i don't think i need anything better.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

That model is a beast. I haven't bought it yet, but i am sure i will (Steam Summer Sale) 😂

For what you get 1350€ is nothing, and they also give a 5 year warranty which is nice. The Display is perfect for media consumption, 10+ hours of battery life, the AMD CPU is a beast.

Do you guys think it is ok for a 1350€ laptop? Here is the link to the store page if you interested having a look.

Thank you for reading.

 

Hello, how are you guys?

As the title says, what search Ingine are you currently using? I used DuckDuckGo for years, and just recently switched to Brave.

Also, what do you think about the Brave Browser? I have been using FireFox since forever.

Thank you for reading.

 

I am rocking an Xiaomi Gaming Laptop (i7 9th, GeForce 2060, 32Gb Ram) with PopOS installed since day one. It is working fine (a bit annoyed because there is no way of finding a new battery for replacement), but I was thinking of switching to something more open source and with Linux officially supported.

Anyone here with an Adder WS (or any other System76 laptop)? How do you find yourself with it? Mainly curious about the battery life.

Thank you for reading.
