5 Things to Look for When Buying a Laptop

May 2, 2018 by BuyDig Team 1 Comment

Compact enough to carry with you, yet versatile enough to run demanding applications, a laptop is the best tool for doing serious work or play at home and on the go. So what type of laptop should you get? With such a wide variety of sizes and features, choosing the right laptop a can be challenging. To make the right call, consider these points before you buy.

Screen Size
Screen size is one of the key factors that decide the usability of the laptop you are buying. If portability is your main concern, then you need to consider a laptop that has a smaller screen and a light weight. Any laptop marketed as an Ultrabook like the LG Gram 15 Ultra-light Notebook from Buydig.com should fit your bill here, as they are designed to be slim and light. If it’s not an Ultrabook, though, look for a laptop with a screen that’s 12.5-13.3 inches in size. If you’re setting up a laptop-based workstation at your home, it makes sense to purchase a device with the largest laptop screen. On an average, you can get something around 15 inches. So, you need to choose the screen size to fit your needs.


Screen Quality
You’ll be staring at your laptop for many hours every day, so you want to make sure you get a screen that is comfortable to look at. Next, look at the resolution. You should consider full HD if you want plenty of space to line up windows and keep things in view. The Samsung Chromebook Pro Intel 2-in-1 Tablet w/ Pen has you covered. It’s Quad HD display made of durable Gorilla Glass 3 looks great up close and from far away. And you’ll enjoy both widescreen viewing and the portrait tablet experience.

Processor
The processor is what defines the speed and performance of your laptop. If you are expecting the standard performance from the device, you can go with Intel i3 or i5 processors. On the other hand, if you’re setting up a high-performance workstation or gaming laptop, you should prefer Core i7, which is performance-friendly and stable. The processor also determines the battery life of your laptop. For example, i5-powered laptops like the HD Chromebook from Hewlett Packard are more battery-friendly.

RAM
You need 4GB of RAM or more to get the best out of your system. More RAM allows for more applications to be run at the same time, and for more data to be quickly accessible by the system at any one time. This comes in handy for tasks such as editing photos. If you use a lot of Google Chrome tabs at once, it’s necessary to have around 8 GB of RAM found in the Microsoft Surface Pro 2-in-1 Touch Tablet from Buydig.com.

Battery Life
Ultimately, battery life is for those who use laptops as laptops. That is, if you carry around your laptop for a long time and work outside, the battery life is like gold. However, if you are setting up a workspace at home, you can choose laptops with lower battery life.

Make sure you follow our tips and you can have the best laptop for your purpose.
