Laptops are no longer a luxury but a necessity instead. Ever since the coronavirus kickstarted the trend of working from home, it has become a necessity to have at least a basic laptop by your side at all times.
Do note that even the best laptops under Rs 25000 in India do not come with the best of hardware. They will perform better than a mid-range tablet, but you can definitely rule out heavy multitasking or anything similar. These machines are good for light browsing, typing up reports where needed and maybe enjoying a movie or two through your favourite streaming service.
If that's what you are after, then we have some recommendations for you in this list of laptops under Rs 25000. Although the prices of the products mentioned in the list given below have been updated as of 16th Jun 2021, the list itself may have changed since it was last published due to the launch of new products in the market since then. With that out of the way, let's check out the top laptop models under 25000.

If you’re looking for the best laptops under Rs 25000 price then the ASUS Chromebook Flip should definitely be on your list. For the uninitiated, a Chromebook is a different kind of laptop, one that runs on the Chrome OS instead of Windows. As a result, it does a lot of things differently. For example, unlike Windows, the Chrome OS is not as resource heavy and runs smoothly on relatively low powered hardware. Similarly, instead of traditional Windows apps, you can use the Google app store and web applications like Google docs on a Chromebook. And suffice it to say, but the ASUS Chromebook Flip is a good device thanks to 4GB RAM, 64GB storage and an Intel Celeron Dual Core processor.
