I was looking at the IdeaPad Slim 5 Pro Gen 6 16" for $1587.53 on the Lenovo store, which comes to that price when I upgrade the specs to the following:
Processor : AMD Ryzen™ 7 5800H (8C / 16T, 3.2 / 4.4GHz, 4MB L2 / 16MB L3)
Graphic Card : NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 3050 4GB GDDR6
Memory : 16GB Soldered DDR4-3200 (SDP)
Solid State Drive : 512GB SSD M.2 2280 PCIe NVMe
Display : 16.0" WQXGA (2560x1600) IPS 350nits Anti-glare, 120Hz, 100% sRGB
Camera : 720p + IR + ToF
Wireless : 11ax, 2x2
Battery : Integrated 75Wh
Power Cord : 135W Slim Tip
While I really like this device, I can't go ahead with it because the shipping will take about 6-8 weeks. I would need it before Dec 27, since that is when I'm going overseas to France. Lenovo won't ship to France apparently, so that's out the picture.
I was wondering if anyone knows any laptops within a similar price range with similar specs and would probably be delivered before Dec 27 (or could be shipped to France). I'm not too fussed about the graphics card and could compromise a little on that, same goes with the processor, though I want at least 16gb ram and a display of an identical or very similar quality to that described.
Thanks.
If you need it ASAP go into Harley Normal or OW or JB etc and see what they have in stock as asking for comparable laptops is useless if they are not in stock now at the store or the distributor in OZ.
