Budget Laptops 2018 With Nepali Price
Budget Laptops 2018
And, now that Windows 10 Redstone 4, or Spring Creators Update, is likely releasing on April 10, the best cheap laptops are about to become a lot more versatile – you won’t have to pay to upgrade to a full-fat version of Windows anymore.
All starting at under $500-600$ (Npr Rs 65000-77000) there’s a fair share of Chromebooks on our list of the best cheap laptops, as you might expect. What you might not have seen coming is that we’ve included a diverse selection of Windows 10 devices as well. What’s more, the lot of these machines boast hybrid form factors, delivering the best facets of a laptop and a tablet. When Steve Jobs scoffed at the idea of the stylus, he hadn’t yet seen how wildly popular 2-in-1 laptops would truly be.
That said, the laptops we’ve put together on this list range in style, performance and function. That’s why we’ve gone hands-on with every clamshell notebook we could find for an ultra-low price to determine which of these models bear sincere affordability without compromise. For those looking to save their tax returns rather than spend them, you can take solace knowing that the following arrangement of recommendations comes from a place of thorough testing and comprehensive reflection.
Acer Swift 3
The bigger, better value proposition
CPU: Intel Core i3 – i7 | Graphics: Intel HD Graphics 620 | RAM: 4GB – 8GB | Screen: 14-inch FHD (1,920 x 1,080) ComfyView IPS | Storage: 128GB – 256GB SSD
Powerful for the price
Stellar battery life
Boring looks
Down-firing speakers
Here
we have one of the few budget laptops with a processor nearly
equivalent to the MacBook Pro, that is, if you opt for the Intel Core i5
configuration. The best part? It’s roughly half the cost of its
Apple-branded rival. Now given that it sells at a range of different
prices, the Acer Swift 3 can be an obtuse purchase, but lucky for you,
the midrange model will get you by just fine.Read the full review: Acer Swift 3
Acer Switch 3
Spiritual successor to the Surface 3
CPU: Intel Pentium Quad Core N4200 | Graphics: Intel HD Graphics 505 | RAM: 4GB | Screen: 12.2-inch (1920 x 1200) IPS LCD | Storage: 64GB
Excellent build quality
Great screen
Tricky hinged stand
No good for games
Hear
ye, the Acer Switch 3 is a feat to behold. This cheap laptop uses a
low-power, albeit astoundingly efficient, Intel Pentium processor.
However, internal specs are the least of its appeal. No, that honor goes
to the Acer Switch 3’s novel ability to detach its screen from its
keyboard. That only scratches the ‘surface’ of the inspiration it’s
taken from Microsoft’s hardware too.Asus Transformer Mini T102HA
Small, portable and flexible
CPU: Intel Atom x5-Z8350 | Graphics: Integrated Intel HD Graphics | RAM: 4GB | Screen: 10.1-inch HD (1,280 x 800) LED touch display | Storage: 64GB
Tablet and laptop in one
Sizable hard drive
Tiny size could be tough
Its
name is alphabet soup to the average reader, but then again this
convertible laptop has always been about function over form. For one
minuscule transaction, you’re getting a tablet equipped with an included
keyboard and even a fingerprint scanner for more secure logins. Along
with reliable Samsung Chromebook Pro
First in a new generation of Chromebooks
CPU: 0.99Ghz Intel Core m3-6Y30 | Graphics: Intel HD Graphics 515 | RAM: 4GB | Screen: 12.3-inch, QHD (2,400 x 1,600) touchscreen | Storage: 32GB eMMC
Stunning, vivid screen
Stylus support on Chrome OS
Cramped keyboard
Weak speakers
With
Android apps now supported on every new Chromebook released, it only
makes sense to craft a Chromebook with a 12.3-inch QHD touch display,
with a 360-degree hinge and pen support to boot. The Samsung Chromebook
Pro may have a keyboard that’s a bit too compact for comfort, but it
more than makes up for it, going as far as to master pen input on the
first try.Acer Chromebook 15
Battery life like no other
CPU: 1.5GHz Intel Celeron 3205U | Graphics: Intel HD Graphics | RAM: 4GB | Screen: 15.59-inch, HD (1,920 x 1,080) touchscreen | Storage: 32GB SSD
Stunning battery life
Attractive, fanless design
Trackpad feels clunky
While
it may be outclassed by the Pixelbook and the Samsung Chromebook in
terms of sheer power, the Acer Chromebook 15 can still pack a wallop
while providing battery life that is frankly out of this world. It’s
rare that a laptop can truly provide all-day battery, but in our
independent battery tests, Acer’s Chromebook lasted an astonishing 17
hours – on top of providing enough power to get your work done online.
If you’re looking for a 15 inch Chromebook that will give you the most
bang for your buck, look no further.Lenovo Yoga Book (Windows 10)
CPU: 1.44GHz Intel Atom x5-Z8550 | Graphics: Intel HD Graphics 400 | RAM: 4GB | Screen: 10.1-inch FHD (1,920 x 1,200 resolution), IPS touchscreen | Storage: 64GB flash storage (plus 128GB with microSD)
Insanely thin and light
Keyboard surprisingly accurate
Woefully underpowered
Dated microUSB port
The
Lenovo Yoga Book, and the Windows 10 version of it in particular, is
the sort of futuristic fodder you would find in an episode of Black
Mirror. It has a keyboard that doubles as a Wacom touch panel and, best
of all, it’s cheap as hell. Now, of course, that comes with the caveat
of a weak Intel Atom processor, but the rest of the Lenovo Yoga Book
should go down in the history books.Acer Chromebook 14
Meet the anti-MacBook Air
CPU: Intel Celeron N3160 | Graphics: Intel HD Graphics 400 | RAM: 4GB | Screen: 14-inch FHD (1,920 x 1,080) display | Storage: 32GB SSD
Top-notch build quality
Solid keyboard and touchpad
Full HD display
Flaky HD video playback
With
its slick lines and a slim silhouette, the Acer Chromebook 14 makes for
a subtle, snazzy laptop. Although its display isn't the most attractive
we've seen, it’s still acceptable for full HD. On top of that, the
keyboard and trackpad adhere to the principle of ‘it just works.’ The
battery life is satisfactory as well despite falling a bit south of
Acer's 12-hour claim in real-world use.HP Pavilion 15
The de facto learning laptop lives on
CPU: AMD dual-core A9 APU – Intel Core i7 | Graphics: AMD Radeon R5 – Nvidia GTX 1050 | RAM: 6GB – 16GB | Screen: 15.6-inch HD (1,366 x 768) – FHD (1,920 x 1,080); touch optional | Storage: 512GB SSD – 1TB HDD
Thinner and lighter
Tons of options
Shallow, squishy keyboard
Frankly, this is a broke college student’s laptop,
so as long as you go in with that in mind, you won’t be disappointed
with the HP Pavilion 15. Possessing all the power you’ll need to get you
through the semester, this laptop bears all of the essentials for an
affordable price, so that you can save the rest of your cash for the
crushing financial aid debt yet to come.Dell Inspiron 11 3000
Colorful can be cheap, too
CPU: Intel Celeron N3060 | Graphics: Intel HD Graphics | RAM: 2GB | Screen: 11.6-inch HD (1366 x 768) anti-glare LED-backlit display | Storage: 32GB eMMC
Lots of color choice
AC Wi-Fi
Barely HD screen
For
those who like their laptops as colorful as they are affordable, the
Dell Inspiron 11 3000 is a no-brainer. Although some users might find
that it’s 11.6-inch display is too small, we would argue that this
budget laptop is the perfect fit for your portable workspace. Plus, its
bright and vibrant color scheme is loud enough that no one on your
flight will confuse it for their own.Lenovo IdeaPad 110s
A simple and reliable laptop
CPU: Intel Celeron N3160 | Graphics: Intel HD Graphics 400 | RAM: 2GB | Screen: 11.6-inch HD (1366 x 768) anti-glare | Storage: 32GB
Full SD card slot
AC Wi-Fi
Barely HD screen
The
Lenovo IdeaPad 110s isn’t the company’s most high-end model of its
signature laptop, but it does sport one of the most recognizable designs
in all of computing. Even if the screen is only 11.6-inches small with a
resolution hardly a step up from a 15-year-old TV, you can at least
take solace in the fact that it is anti-glare. That goes without
mentioning the port lineup, which accounts for everyone’s tastes.HP Stream 14
Big and colorful for cheap
CPU: Intel Celeron N3060 | Graphics: Intel HD Graphics 400 | RAM: 4GB | Screen: 14-inch HD (1,366 x 768) SVA BrightView WLED-backlit | Storage: 32GB eMMC
Larger than most budget options
Free 25GB of Dropbox for 1 year
Barely HD screen
With
a starting price of just above 200 large, the HP Stream 14 is a fine
value for those seeking a strong if basic web browsing machine. It's
cheaper than even some Chromebooks while offering a bigger screen and
the fullness of Windows 10. Other 15-inchers lack the ergonomics and
aesthetics of HP’s cheapest Windows laptop yet.
