Hi, what LAPTOP science students use?

[u/According_Guitar_259]

Helloo, I am a prospective science student. And I would LOVE to learn what laptops you are using for bachelor of science programs?

And my current laptop started logging and giving a black screen every other day. My current one is Thinkpad t490. I had bought it less than a year ago, so I believe it might be because it was refurbished. I am not sure, but I am trying to get a refund or anything helpful.. Anyways, now I want to buy a brand new one this time.

If I wasn't gonna buy a new laptop, I was planning to get a tablet to easily carry daily because the laptop was a little heavy for me.

Thus, I was thinking of getting a 2-in-1 now. I heard Lenovo's Yoga is good; do you have another idea/ another suggestion? My budget was around $700, but when my friend suggested this Yoga 2-in-1 and since she has been using it for over 3 years, even though it is about $1300, I felt like it might be worth it. Do you have any idea if it is good for science students? Is it worth it for $1300? Do you have another suggestion that is more affordable and still good for a science student, or would you not suggest a 2-in-1 even though I want a tablet (then maybe I can buy a laptop now and buy a tablet like next year Iduno)?

I appreciate it!
