Many of you are looking to buy a new laptop. But, when it comes to finding a good laptop within the budget, not many people can do it well

Therefore, it is very important to know what you need to know before buying a laptop.

I didn’t know anything about the specifications of a good laptop before. So, I was very sad after buying my first laptop.

Because, before buying that laptop I bought no guide from anyone. Also, I didn’t know what about good laptop should have or how to recognize a best laptop.

So, in this case, I made a big mistake and bought a laptop for around 25 thousand rupees, which was very difficult to use.

Because that laptop works very slow and its display quality is very bad. Moreover, due to the bad hardware configuration, it often hangs.

Thus, the same can happen to you if you buy a laptop without knowing anything about it. In this, using the laptop will become a lot of inconvenience for you and the money will go down the drain.
However, knowing the ways to recognize a good quality laptop or what we need to know before buying a laptop, I buy my second laptop knowing them well.

And, I am very satisfied with my second laptop and this laptop works very fast and fast. Moreover, the display quality is extremely good.

And, I bought this second laptop for only $2000/-.

So, before going to buy a laptop, compare different laptops according to your needs, budget, and needs.

Take the laptop which has a better configuration.

Moreover, before buying a laptop, I must consider the points mentioned below. In this, you can choose a good quality laptop for yourself.

What are the ways to know a good laptop?

To prepare yourself on which laptop will be good or how to choose a better laptop, you need to know about these 9 things given below.

Because these 9 things are some of the best things that can differentiate between a bad (low quality) and the best laptop.

However, remember, your budget (budget) or how much money you are going to buy a laptop will also depend on many cases.

Also, whether a laptop is good or bad for you will depend on what you are thinking of buying a laptop for.

Whether for playing games or general typing work, for entertainment and internet browsing, or for running heavy software, it all depends on the purpose of buying your laptop.

However, regardless of your budget, to choose a laptop that is fast, fast, has good display quality, and has essential features, you should know these 10 things below before buying a laptop.

Before buying a laptop, I did not know these 10 important things
So let’s see below, what is important to know before buying a good laptop.

  1. Latest Windows OS

The most widely used in laptops or computers is the “Windows Operating System“. So, before buying a laptop, check whether it has the latest Microsoft Windows OS or not.

Today the latest Windows OS is called “Windows 10“. Also, make sure your laptop is not running an older Windows version such as Windows 7 or Windows 8.

This will change the performance of your laptop.

Because, compared to the older versions of Windows, Windows 10 is much better quality and many types of improvements have been made in this version.

  1. Screen / Display quality

Most budget laptops have low-quality or low-resolution displays. This type of display has a resolution of 1366*768 or less where you will not get a clear or clear display.

Hey, this type of display is best for general work. But, you won’t get that fun while watching movies or playing games.

So, before buying a laptop, make sure that it has a Full HD (1920 x 1080) or 1080p resolution display.

In this, you will get a high-quality HD display where you will enjoy watching videos, playing games, or working.

Moreover, if your budget is small, then you can buy a laptop with better display quality or resolution.

For example, Retina display (2304×1440), QHD (2560 x 1440), or 2K. Laptops with such high-quality displays can cost more.

  1. Laptop screen size

I will not say much about the laptop screen size. Because, in this regard, it will completely depend on your own needs.

However, I have used laptops of different sizes.

And, for those who work more on a laptop and travel more with the laptop, I think a 12 to 13-inch size laptop is best.

Because 12 to 13-inch size laptop is very light and can be easily carried anywhere.

Laptops with this type of screen size will be slightly smaller.

Moreover, if you are buying a laptop for watching movies or playing games, then a 15-inch laptop would be best for you.

15-inch size laptops are very popular among people and if you want a bigger screen, then this size is best for you.

But keep in mind, these 15-inch size laptops will be a bit heavy and may be inconvenient for you to carry with you all the time.

Finally, if you are taking the laptop only for playing high-end games or watching movies and you don’t keep your laptop in one place or carry it around, then you can go for a 17 to 18-inch laptop.

But remember that a laptop of this size will be heavier. And, increasing it can be very difficult for you.

Therefore, laptops should always have a screen size of 13, 14, or 15 inches.

So, to make your laptop work fast and keep its performance good, some latest versions of Microsoft windows such as “Windows 10 pro”, “Windows 10 home” or “Windows 10 Professional” should be installed on your laptop. will be

  1. Laptop battery backup

A laptop means to use it without any fixed place. And, in this case, it is not possible to run the laptop by connecting it to electricity all the time.

So, whether you’re buying a laptop for work or entertainment, you’ll want your laptop to run for around 7 to 8 hours without power on just its battery backup.

And so, make sure that you can run the laptop for 7 to 8 hours only with battery backup while traveling or any other time without a power connection.

And for that, before buying a laptop, definitely know about its battery backup. But you need to know about this in advance.

  1. Keyboard & Touchpad quality

But look at the keyboard and touchpad of the laptop. Many times, people don’t see this before buying a laptop and later face a lot of problems with the keyboard and touchpad.

So, what is the quality of the keyboard, whether the buttons are coming easily to your hands or not, what is the quality of the buttons, and whether the touchpad is comfortable, check them all?

  1. Laptop Processor or CPU

The working capacity of the laptop depends on the CPU or Processor of your laptop. 70% of us don’t check the processor while buying a laptop.

And, due to the weak or low-quality processor, our laptop does not work fast.

Remember, the better the CPU or processor of your laptop, the faster and better performance you will get.

remember,

1. If the processor in your computer or laptop is always dual core or more core like quad-core, you will get better performance. Never buy a laptop with a single-core processor.

2. If your laptop has an Intel Atom, Intel Pentium, Intel Celeron dual-core, or AMD A6 processor, then this CPU is enough for general word processing, writing, using general software, watching normal quality videos, and browsing the internet.

3. If your budget is small and you want to buy a high-performance laptop, then you can buy a laptop with Intel Core i5, Intel Core i3, or AMD Ryzen series processors. This type of processor can easily play games with good graphics, watch Full HD video, do video editing, and multi-tasking while using some heavy software.

So, the better quality CPU or processor your laptop has, the more powerful and faster the laptop will work.

Moreover, the newer the generation of processors, the better their performance will be, and will consume less battery power.

So, always know whether the latest generation processor is provided or not.

  1. Other Hardware Specifications – (RAM)

For a laptop to work quickly and smoothly without hanging from time to time, the RAM in the laptop is very important.

Remember, the more RAM your laptop has, the more work it can do. As a result of more RAM, you will get hang-free and lag-free performance.

By having more RAM, your laptop will work faster, process any program easily and quickly, the chances of hanging will be reduced and multi-tasking can be done easily.

So, keep in mind that the RAM in your laptop should be between 4GB and 8 GB.

Finally, remember that the higher the RAM’s frequency and DDR range, the higher its performance.

Therefore, laptop RAM should be in DDR 3 or DDR 4 range.

The present is the era of DDR 4. And this type of RAM is the most advanced and works the fastest.

  1. Laptop Storage Capacity

After buying a laptop, you put some movies, games, software, music, or photos on the laptop. Moreover, we need some space to install Windows OS.

So, 500 Gb of storage or a hard disk is enough for these common things.

However, for storing more GB of games or movies on the laptop, a 1TB hard disk is more than enough.

Because we can’t add extra storage or hard disk separately like a desktop PC, it would be better to buy a laptop with more storage space first. For example, 1TB hard disk.

There is another special thing related to storage and hard disk.

Nowadays, better quality hard disks are out. And, these are called SSD (Solid state drives).

This type of SSD hard disk is much more advanced and faster than normal HDD storage.

However, the price of SSD hard disks is much higher than that of normal hard disks.

So, if you have more needs and a budget, get this type of SSD storage laptop.

Moreover, a normal 1TB hard disk will be enough for you.

  1. Other features & functions

After considering all the points, let’s have a look at some of the general features and functions of the laptop.

First, check if your laptop has a USB 3.0 port.

These types of USB ports can transfer or receive files very quickly through a pen drive or other external storage.

Second, check if there is a DVD writer or not. Hey, a DVD is rarely used these days.

But, I think having a DVD drive on a laptop is very important. Because of this, you can easily format windows with a bootable disc.

Moreover, you are given a DVD to install driver software for various hardware. And, you can’t install them on a laptop without a DVD drive.

However, you can download and install the online driver software, but everyone can’t do this properly.

So, assume you have a DVD drive on your laptop.

  1. Laptop brand matters

I know that before buying a laptop, you must think about the brand of the laptop. But let me tell you, don’t buy any company’s laptop because of the low price.

The main reason for this is the effect on the warranty.

A good brand like Acer, Asus, Dell, and Lenovo will get their service center anywhere along with their good laptop.

So, if your laptop breaks down at any time during the warranty period, you can easily get your laptop repaired for free.

And, the work and response of the service center of the laptop company of good brand are very good.

Moreover, good brands are always trusted and laptop hardware parts are original and of good quality.

So, before buying a laptop for yourself, definitely look at its brand and company.

In this, you will not face any inconvenience in the future.

Our Last Words,
So friends, how do buy a laptop, what are the ways to know a good laptop or what to look for before buying a laptop, you may have got the knowledge.
