My $1000 laptop still doesn't have a full-function USB-C port in 2025. Why are manufacturers still cutting this corner?
€ 850 for Lenovo IdeaPad slim 5 with decent build quality, 2 usb C charging + data ports, 2 USB a ports, recent CPU, 32gb ram and 1tb ssd. Depends on the laptop you buy.

Ryzen AI 7 350 vs Intel Core Ultra 255H? (Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 5 vs ASUS Vivobook S14 at ~80k INR)
Ryzen 7 AI 350 is super compatible for your needs. about thermals i think vivobook s14 comes with dual fan setup so cooling will be good than single fan idepad Ryzen has better thermals and i watched many benchmarks show R7 reach 50W range during stress so IdeaPad cooling is not bad for single fan I

Windows or macbook?
Try an ASUS Vivobook OLED or a higher end IdeaPad Slim 5. Ryzen AI 7 350, 24GB of RAM. Should last an eternity.

Laptop Recommendations (500 - 600eur)
IdeaPad Slim 5 14" is your best bet.Upgradable RAM, pretty good CPU and two SSD slots.The iGPU is alright as well.Metal (aluminum) build, OLED display.If you can find a Ryzen AI 7 version, perfect. Otherwise, look elsewhere.

Laptop Recommendations (500 - 600eur)
There are some Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 models with Ryzen 7 7735HS or even 8840HS around this price. It probably depends on which exact country in the EU you're buying from, but these are some of the few laptops with decently powerful chips I've seen around that price range. They should be decent, but

Need laptop buying suggestion urgently (first time buying ) !!
both are a bad choice for ML model training. You need RAM and an NPU won'T hurt.I bought a new laptop 1.5 years ago and ended up getting an 800€ Lenovo ideapad with upgradeable RAM options and a Ryzen AI 7 350 - way cheaper than all other options with a quite new CPU. The Ideapad slim 5 series also
