Before deciding the laptop models on should take into consideration the following key components.
| Feature | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Processor: Recent Intel i3/i5 (11th-/12th-gen) or AMD Ryzen 3 / Ryzen 5 (5000- or 6000-series)** | Better performance for multitasking, smoother general usage. |
| RAM: Minimum 8 GB, ideally 12-16 GB | Enough for browsing, Office apps, light media editing, less lag. |
| Storage: SSD (256/512 GB) | SSD speeds make a huge difference over HDDs in boot, app loads. |
| Display: Full HD (1920×1080), IPS or good quality panel | Better clarity, viewing angles, and for long usage. |
| Build & Portability: Weight, battery life, keyboard, thermal control | If you carry it or use it often, these matter. |
| Graphics: Integrated usually, maybe discrete in rare deals under budget | For gaming/light design work, discrete graphics help but often push price above 50k. |
The other important aspect to consider is your use case.
| Use Case | Best Choice(s) |
|---|---|
| Students / Everyday Use (note-taking, Office, web) | Dell Vostro 3420, HP 15s, Lenovo V15 — reliable and good battery/display. |
| Hybrid / Portability | Acer Aspire Lite, HONOR MagicBook X16 — lighter, thinner, decent power. |
| Light Gaming / Content Creation | Lenovo IdeaPad Gaming 3 (for games), HONOR MagicBook X16 or HP 15s (for video/light edit). |
| Professional Work (coding, spreadsheets, multitasking) | Prioritize 16 GB RAM if possible: the Acer Aspire Lite or MagicBook X16 are good picks. |
