I want to buy a 15.6” Laptop for home. My budget is up to $1,000.
The only main requirements I have is it should be 15.6” and a bit faster machine. I don’t want a gaming laptop but I don’t want a slower one as well. I prefer SSD ones as they are a bit faster. I will use it to listen to music, watch videos and surf internet (just basic stuff).
Can you please suggest any suitable options?
Thank you.
The DELL deal has finished. Can someone please help by providing few other options? Thank you.
ASUS Viobook
10th Gen i5 processor, 8GB RAM and 512GB SSD. USB 3.1 and USB C. $899
Or
MSI Modern
Adds FHD IPS screen, USB 3.2, but lighter and less bulk at 1.6kg. $999 on sale from $1158
Or
Dell Inspiron
Adds 11th Gen i7 processor with Iris XE graphics (which actually aren’t terrible like older integrated graphics were). Goes back up in weight to 1.8kg. $799 on sale from $1549.
Or
Dell Inspiron
Adds 11th Gen H processor (newer and faster than 11th Gen above), 16GB RAM, Thunderbolt 4, slight weight reduction as it’s the newer Inspiron so back to 1.65kg or so. $1099 on sale from $1999.
Personally I’d just pick the dell, they will do the job for what you’ve said. $100 budget stretch is probably wise as you’re getting a big improvement to future proofing with newest CPU, TB4 and a bit more RAM (however 8GB is more than enough for what you want to do). Just uninstall all their bloatware or do a fresh install if you know how to (not difficult). I have a Dell XPS and it came with heaps of their software for managing stuff which windows already does.
