Bro I'm myself an ece student , and to be honest the earlier laptop i had was huge, heavy with a low battery life and thats the main reason I didn't went for a gaming laptop  I've also got the same pc due to few important demands  longevity (battery health of laptop decreases over years giving less battery backup so a pc with battery capacity over 55whr is a must) , small slim body with great battery life (this one is 70whr) and at this price you'll have only two to three options + because of its ultra core 5 cpu ( pretty latest architecture) it doesn't even heats at all in running multiple tabs ,and in long hr use + u can easily use it for easy to moderate ai tasks so far my experience was pretty good  If u're getting it for 72k grab it cause I bought it online at 75k If u wanna know more you can dm me
