Best laptop under $600 for Photoshop?

Greetings. I am looking for some laptop recommendations within a budget of $1333. A standard 15" screen size would be ideal. It must include an SSD, and I assume a dedicated graphics card will be necessary given that I'll be using Photoshop and similar creative software. Would 8GB of RAM suffice for these tasks? Beyond that, the machine will handle typical everyday usage. Is it possible to find a suitable option at this price point?

$1333

Black Friday and Cyber Monday are right around the corner—literally two weeks out—so we might actually see some decent deals pop up soon.

To be exact, 3999 🙂

It looks excellent... that’s quite a steal for that price, wouldn't you agree?

EDIT: I did a bit of digging, and apparently this GPU struggles slightly with Photoshop... does anyone here have any firsthand experience?

Yeah. It’s basically the only laptop out there with an actual IPS screen paired with a decent processor and some legit graphics for this kind of cash. I saw it on sale last weekend for about $1100 at Best Buy. Honestly, keep an eye on it tomorrow—if that deal pops up again, just grab it. Don't overthink it.

Here we go again...

When you say you googled that, were you looking at this specific laptop or just some other random model? I've seen plenty of reviews for laptops with poorly implemented Intel Core Processors, but I don't think that has anything to do with this Lenovo...

Double post. Some guy beat me to the punch while I was busy making sure my breakfast didn't burn to a crisp. 😁

Check this one out for $1433 if you're willing to stretch your budget a little. It's way more powerful than that Lenovo + it actually has an aluminum chassis. You definitely won't run into any issues with this beast.

If you know an American or have someone who can snag it for you through Americana, it's about $3,900.

That unit priced at $4,300 was exceptional, but it has been listed as unavailable for nearly ten days now. 😢 It possesses a refined aesthetic and a high-quality feel... is there any way to source a similar model elsewhere within a comparable budget? I apologize for the persistent inquiries, but does anyone know of a similar alternative available for under $4,500? 🙂

Not right now. I'm holding out for those Black Friday deals instead. Might actually find something worth grabbing then.

What are your thoughts on an Acer Swift 3 equipped with an MX150 graphics card? My only hesitation is that the price feels a bit steep.😵
