Both are far from perfect if we r talking 'bout color gamut.
Not confirmed IF TUF 3050 has exact same configuration as 3050Ti meaning if it has TB or not. But seems like yes.
So see for yourself, is it worth it or not...

Is the Graphics card the reason for the premium price?
I do not have any experience with this type of gaming laptops. Wanted to understand.
