    Hi

    Quick answer - XMG P505!

    More in depth answer - it realy depends on the panel sixe preference, performance requirements, budget and a lot more. Some of the Schenker branded models are identical to the XMG models save for the starting configurations and other small things, so there is an overlap to an extent. If you have specific requirements for your laptop then please let me know, or feel free to contact your local XMG support office and we will be happy to help you make a decision!

    Thanx for the reply.
    My top priorities are the display quality and I'm not interested in GPU power.I also want the laptop to last for a minimum of three years.. My budget is <1400€. I looked at the XMG A505 and Schenker M505 which are good and within my budget; But I'm skeptical about their build quality.
    The XMG P505 looks also interesting but I don't think that the powerful GPU will be of any use for me.
    so what are the build qualities of the XMG A505?Schenker M505? and is the XMG P505 really far more superior than them in term of build quality?
    By the way, I plan to buy my schenker/XMG from MYSN.EU.

    I would rank the build quality of the A505 above that of the M505 but only just. The difference between these two and the P505 is that the P505 is aluminium whereas the A505 and M505 are plastic chassis, but you should expect any of them to hold up over 3 years. On the Uk website the M505 is an XMG model but on .eu it is a Schenker model - they are the same latop though.

    If you have specific questions on pricing or anything else then I would recommend to contact info @ mysn.eu because they work from the EU office and I'm in the UK office so I can't offer advise but not anything further such as pricing or offers that may be different on .eu and .co.uk.

    The M505 would be the most cost effective if you aren't interested in GPU power, but it lacks some of the features that the P505 has such as M.2 storage and higher than FHD resolution displays.
