Too lazy to read? Go to our table at the end of the article to compare features easily.
Usage: First of all, you need to decide what you’ll be using this laptop for. Just to surf the net and watch Netflix? Use it for some work, some typing and also Netflix and chill? Or for running software and programs like Photoshop, AutoCAD or non-stop gaming?
Processor: A processor is THE MOST IMPORTANT factor that you should look at before getting your laptop. And the better the processor, the more it will cost you. A basic processor will do if you are just gonna send a couple of emails every day, shop online and watch movies. But you’ll need the best processor out there is you are a pro gamer. You get what I mean.
RAM: Random-access memory is what stores all the data that is currently used by you. If you multitask a lot with a lot of windows open at the same time, you need higher RAM space (usually between 4 GB and 16 GB).
Internal Storage: This is where you will be storing all your files. With Google Drive and the Cloud, many people have minimised usage of space on their devices. But if you are the kind of person who stores all his music and movies on the laptop, you will need a lot of memory. As your memory gets full, it will affect the performance of your system. So choose wisely.
Battery: All of us know this. The longer the battery life, the better it is!
Graphics Card: This is what gives your pictures and videos great image quality. An integrated graphics card is enough for minimal photo editing and to watch movies. But you will need a dedicated graphics card if you are a gamer who needs excellent HD visuals while playing. Just like you need more GBs on RAM, you need more GBs on the graphics card for better visuals.
