This product was recommended by Charlotte Robinson from Robot Powered Home

A gorgeously designed machine with the latest processors and graphic cards. Won’t cause any lag or freeze when running even the most high-level software.

GIGABYTE AERO 15 OLED KC

This product was recommended by Charlotte Robinson from Robot Powered Home

The go-to laptop for those who want lightning-fast processing over all else. Has a full SD card slot which will let you connect a wide variety of devices.

A bit pricey though, even given all its superb capabilities.

This product was recommended by Charlotte Robinson from Robot Powered Home

It has got incredible processing power which can keep your laptop as fast as new for at least a few years.

The only con is its battery backup, and you won’t be able to stay away from a wall socket for too long.

Its only drawback is its weight (which is fine compared to other 17-inch screens). But for that extra weight, you will get one of the best battery backup out there and an incredibly efficient processor. Its exquisite frame rate and screen resolution will give you a very user-friendly experience. And it is the pick of the lot for hardcore gamers.
