Yes I am a gamer, no I don't want to use the Laptop for gaming.
The Laptop in question is the 'Lenovo IdeaPad Gaming 3 Gen 7', I can't out right purchase it outright as any device is way to pricy for me. So it would be an monthly payment through 2 years.
Why do I want the Laptop?
I've been pushing myself to edit videos and have got to the stage that I have registered a company that I'll be doing this under. Sure my PC would do the ok job, it runs the programs I need such as Premiere Pro but I feel a more portable set up might be needed in the future for as my partner wants to go away to so many places in the future, the ability to move rooms in the house when I feel I no longer can work in the room such as my office to the sitting room as well as if it comes to it I can use the laptop for more 'high-end' gaming on the go in my spare time.
Why this Laptop?
Well I saw it on my phone providers website as I was checking when my current laptop is due to finish it's cycle (The laptop I have currently only have 4GB of ram and can barely open the internet) also it cost like ~£40 a month.
How much would I be paying?
The cost on the website is £42 a month with £10 upfront cost.
This does come with a 'bonus' of 2 year subscriptions of Microsoft Office 365 and Xbox Game Pass Ultimate.
@hperrin TBH the downsides don't seem to bad (Other than the possible colour accuracy). The weight and chunkiness doesn't really matter as I already carry around a Canon 60D w/ Tripods and other gear when creating personal videos (not the newest hardware but does the job). The Battery life sure sucks but pretty much anywhere I go will most likely have power even the Trains in the UK have power for Laptops so long journey's aren't to bad if I were to go on them.
From the few videos I've saw so far people are saying on demanding stuff the battery lasts between 4-5 hours what is really good if that is the case but 2 hours is still good if not. The Trackpad I won't be using to often as I really hate them (One of the main things I hate about Laptops) so I will be most likely getting a mouse that will go along with the Laptop when I am out and about, tbh the downsides seem to be more of what sort of laptop I need as well as it being a laptop, no laptop is perfect unless it can turn into a full blown super computer for games, multiple monitors as well as last all day without being plugged in so I feel they are understandable downsides.
Thanks for the help.
