I do not play and only do internet surfing and MS Office and a bit of photo editing with Lightroom 5.2.

You do not need a new one. The tuts still. Use it as long as possible. The environment thanks you.

the cracks in the hardware are not as serious as they used to be. So the advantage is low.

As an alternative you still have a Ryzen 5 3500u.

The advantage here is a 4-core CPU with 8 threads and a much stronger GPU (Vega 8) than Intel.

So far, I'm very happy with my, even though it's from 2012.

Does not matter. The advantage is that you are used to it.

I agree with you. I live and suffer with the weaknesses and strengths of my notebook.

If you still have enough power, then you do not need a new laptop. With a new laptop, you will notice a difference in image editing, the rest rather less.
