RE: Help with a laptop SE - privatejohn__ - 07-24-2022

not related to the SE, but I'd recommend staying away from the HP spectre x360. I ftid'ed one a while back and I would honestly be pretty pissed if I had actually spent my money on it as it's just not very good.

It's perfectly understandable.

They cannot remotely brick the laptop Itself.

Or SE (refund) cheaper Items that have a proven track record of success.

Then use the cash from each SE and purchase the laptop.

- Lenovo Yoga 9i Gen7: only sold in the Lenovo website
- HP Spectre x360
I need it to have a Spanish keyboard because we have an extra letter, so foreign stores are out of the question.

sealed box for lenovo, very easy.
How did you open the cardboard without any signs?  There is a brand tape on it. I have checked and that tape seems to be water-based Kraft paper one which is hard to remove from cardboard.

im assuming your reffering to the black paper-like tape on it? avoid it. the bottom of the box is folded which you can unfold.

Also what laptop to SE heavily depends on what area you are from. Nevertheless, most of the big brands should be fine.
