Recommended Laptops for Windows & MacBook Pro

Laptops we recommend based on 16+ years of repair experience, picked for reliability, repairability and value. The Windows side covers ASUS, Lenovo and HP at $850-$1200 with 16GB RAM and upgradeable storage; the MacBook Pro lineup runs from the entry M4 up to the 16-inch M4 Pro for creative work. We service all of these in our Erina workshop.
