I'm going to buy a new laptop for college, and I'd like to try gaming, so it should have a dedicated gpu.
I'm on a budget of 13000 EGP which is about 750 USD at the current time.

1st option: 12200 EGP
DELL Inspiron 5567 - core i7 7500U - R7 m445
2nd option: 13300 EGP
HP probook g4 450 - core i7 7500U - GTX 930MX
3rd option: 13800 EGP
LENOVO ideapad 520 - core i7 8550U - MX150

The other specs like ram and HDD are identical.

I know that the specsheet of the Lenovo is killer compared to the other two laptops. It's just that I'm not that comfortable to buy a "Lenovo" product, no specific reason, just seems to me that owning a product from "Dell or HP" is better.

Would someone prove me wrong and approve that my choice is right?
Is there a better option?

PS: I feel kind of guilty for spending those 750$ on a laptop instead of a gaming PC, it is just that I haven't tried new AAA titles and would like to do that.. also would like to do that at the comfort of my sweet bed.. having some portability would also be nice.
Am I right? Let's discuss that too!

The last one with the MX150 will be the fastest. Nothing wrong with Lenovo, they are one of the top brands. I'd pick that before the HP and maybe even the Dell if I was picking just based on brand.

You won't be playing new games on past low settings on any of those systems, they are all lower end video cards and power saving CPUs. There are some laptops in the US market at least with quad core CPUs and a 1050 video cards for $700 that are much better, but prices are very likely different in your area. https://www.bestbuy.com/site/dell-inspiron-15-6-laptop-intel-core-i5-8gb-memory-nvidia-geforce-gtx-1050-ti-256gb-solid-state-drive-black/5872507.p?skuId=5872507...
