As an avid gamer, I'd recommend the Lenovo Legion 5 Pro or Lenovo Legion 7 coming later in 2021. It has all the things you're looking for, and a 16:10 aspect ratio screen, so it's a slightly taller display commonly found on productivity machines like the Dell XPS laptops and Apple MacBooks. So you can fit more lines of data vertically than traditional 16:9 aspect ratio screens. LG Gram 16 would be decent too if weight and fan noise is a concern.

One thing to note about the processors are that i5/i7 doesn't denote "newness" but rather the "class" of processor. Intel's i7 branding has been around a decade, but an i7 from 2010 is WAY slower than an i5 today. That being said, all the ones you pointed out, or all of the ones that can be bought new will typically be from the last 1 or 2 years.

For folks looking to buy i'd only add to be wary of sexy-slim designs which end up having a) no ports or b) no storage/processing chops. And c) do you really need a touch screen?

They are recommending that I use 16 Ram and what I have is 8 Ram, Can I work with it on the long run. And also I brought a new laptop that had windows 11 but wasn’t compatible because it works only with windows 10. Any opinion?!

Intel i5 vs i7 (10th Gen: Comet Lake and 11th Gen: Tiger Lake) The i5 (for laptops) is a 4-core CPU, with a boost clock speed of just over 4Ghz. Intel now supports hyperthreading in their i5 line, so for a laptop, this would be a 4-core, 8-thread processor. More than enough horsepower for even 3D modeling. The i7 in the Comet Lake line is a 6-core, 12-thread chip. Honestly, in the i5 vs i7 debate, unless you're doing some seriously huge data calculations and dealing with advanced 3d modeling, the i5 chipset is perfectly suited. Ryzen 5 vs Ryzen 7 (AMD): The latest-gen Ryzen 5 chip is a 6-core, 12-thread chip (comparable to the i7), while the Ryzen7 is an 8-core, 16-thread chip. Either is well suited for crunching numbers and doing data visualizations. In both cases, it all boils down to how much you want to pay (or can afford to pay). I'm firmly on the Red Team (AMD) side. I got a deal on a Dell with a Ryzen 7 chip recently for just shy of $600. :)

An SSD is great for speed but they are just a big flash drive that has a life span determined but the quantity of read / writes, so it's better to have an conventional HDD for long term backup. You can get free software to monitor how much life an SD has before failure. For a laptop an external HDD to back up to works well for my. While in my desktop I have both with storage for things not used daily and a partition for scheduled backup of the main SSD.

Nice video! About the processor, i3-i5-i7-i9 are classes, and does not denote how new they are. A first gen i7 (from 2009 or so) is painfully slow by today's standards. Even a 7th gen i7 (from 2016) is comparable to a 10th gen i3 from 2020 in terms of performance. The current gen is 11th on Intel and 5000 series on AMD (yours is the 4800h, which is still an absolute monster even though its one gen old.) but most stuff sold on the market are generally new (3 generations old MAX). On laptops, the processors with the 'H' suffix are high powered ones while the 'U' series are power saving processors used in thin and light laptops that don't have much cooling potential. The U series consume less power, but are also comparatively slow.

I only disagree with you on the importance of a full keyboard w a 10 key. any DS should have easy access to the number keypad. I work mainly from home, and I want to use this (Envy 15.6") for a desktop monitor eventually. I have been wanting to stick w HP but my Envy has an issue with screen blackout at random times, mostly when I have a split screen. But as it is almost 2023, I am going to check out the Omen to see if there are any configurations that I prefer. I am looking for 1T, 16GB, i7 or AMD Ryzan 7, 17" screen size with a full keyboard.

It's powerful and a good laptop overall. I personally don't buy/use macbooks as they don't allow some software that I use to be downloaded. Great laptops for most people though - although somewhat expensive.

@@AlexTheAnalyst people say to use Virtual Machines to maneuver that problem (although with the M1 there seems to be compatibility issues not solved yet). Is using a Virtual Machine not a good option if someone decides to use macOS?

Based on your experience, do you think a MacBook is suitable for handling job duties involving Clinical SAS, Python, and SQL effectively, or are there specific considerations I should be aware of before making a decision? Thanks in advance!

Hey Alex, I just bought Apple Ipad Pro 12.9 inch (2021) for my university lectures. Is it a good option for my analytical course? Can you suggest some applications to run Python, Tableau and SQL on iOS. Thank you!

Thank you for the explanation. I am looking at starting a course in data analysis but I have a laptop whose screen size is 13.3", core i5 with 512 ssd and 16gm ram. I don't know if it's good for data analysis

Because I use my laptop to run VMWAre Workstation Pro to run CiscoCML and my data science apps. I need 128Gb of RAM, as the base. Cisco CML uses a lot of RAM and CPU, so I need a good 12th Gen CPU. I need a good NVidia card, which is used to ML/DL use cases. For install all the software, i need at least 2 Gb of HDD storage. For these purposes, I find these requirements cost about 5K right now. Yipes. But thats what my dual purpose DS/ Cisco CML/ EVE-NG sim cost.

It's been a year since you made this video: looking at Amazon, RTX 3060, 64GB RAM and 2TB hard drive is only $2100. That seems like that's a lot less than a Lenovo or Dell. What am I missing? Why is it so inexpensive?

Thank you @Alex. This is helpful. I am just starting my journy at learning skills in data analytics but I found my pc performances not compatible (4gb RAM and 1.5ghz Processor) with core i5. I can't upgrade the processor, but maybe the RAM. Anyone thinks this would be enough to get my pc ready for data analytics tools? I couldn't install and run SQLite to give you an idea about the situation. Thanks!
