Everyone who is even remotely related to something modern needs a Laptop. But often people don’t understand the parameters they have to consider if they are planning to buy a new laptop for their needs. People often fall prey to big companies, glamorous advertisements, and false hype and end up buying a laptop that doesn’t fulfill their requirements or is too complex for their needs.
Laptops are just a tool that is required to do most of the job nowadays, but people integrate their laptops with their style and class which is wrong and often ends up bad. Most of the people buying laptops don’t even know most of the things about the laptop they are being but they still spend their hard-earned money on something they don’t actually need. This leads to our first tip that is.
Many people who need to buy laptops are students, and they are the ones who ignore their needs the most. If you are a high school or secondary school student and all you need a laptop for is to make assignments and stuff. This application is the most basic feature of all laptops today. Pretty much any laptop can run Microsoft Office, Excel, and stuff. So presumably, all students should be buying cheap laptops, but this statement is as untrue as it can get.
Students who need nothing but a typewriter with a screen buy these crazy expensive MacBooks, Acers, and Samsung 2-in-1s. As this investment is supposedly “necessary“, so they don’t feel bad and console them by saying that it is an important gadget for school. If you are a student that doesn’t have the computer as their major subject or isn’t learning to code, you should go for a simple and budget-friendly laptop. If you have a lot of extra cash to burn, a good battery is something you should consider while buying a laptop and nothing else.
But if you are a student that needs to do a lot of coding or a professional who works in a tech company, cheap laptops can cause great pain. Chromebooks and Vivobooks are really budget-friendly laptops and if you have a tight budget you would lure towards those. But keep in mind that you are even more wasting your money if you buy something that doesn’t even let you do what you bought it for in the first place.
Code-editing software and languages require a decent processor to run properly, and even more if you make some mistakes. So if you buy a cheap laptop that can barely run code, you either have to write absolutely bug-free code which is obviously impossible or wait for 5-10 minutes for the laptop to start responding again every time you make a mistake.
It sounds like a great idea to buy an expensive classy laptop for the price of a low-spec laptop, you would get what you need, save money, and also look posh. Well, this is actually a terrible idea, usually second-hand laptops especially expensive ones definitely have something wrong with them or why would someone sell them? The tech retailers are smart, they cover up all the shortcomings of the laptops and you don’t suspect anything at the start but after a while, you start to get really bad results from the laptop as if you are operating a 100 years old gadget and now you can’t even return it cause it was non-warrantied and all your money is wasted. On the other hand, if you buy a new laptop that fits your requirements and you use it carefully, you might use it for years without having a problem.
At last, we would again mention that don’t fall for fancy designs, specs, and ads, and buy the laptop that fulfills your need, do some research on somewhat local brands with affordable ranges, and you would be surprised to know the value of those laptops provide for such a less price.
