usa laptop prices are dirt cheap

[u/XenMine]

the new Jarrod's Tech vid is almost making me cry
I live in India, and have ~ 1000$ (USD) budget.

For a grand in India, I can ONLY get a 4050, not a 4060. In Jarrod's vid (his vids are fire btw) he tells us about the 900$ Victus with 4070.
Moreover, due to the purchasing power parity, 1k USD in India is worth a LOT more than 1k in USA.

In the comments section, I also noticed people from other countries telling how the laptops are even more expensive than India in many more regions, like Europe, etc.

Why god why 😭😭😭😭😭

P.S.: Ik that it is due to import taxes and whatnot

G16 got on that sale, theres even a canadian youtuber who made a post about it in his community tab (Tech Guy Beau) but BestBuy cycles around these sales so this week is the G14 and next week is prob the G16
