There used to be a time when laptops would cost an arm and a leg. They were the very definition of a “luxury item,” but things are so much different in 2020. With work from home become the new normal, laptops have gone from being luxury items to a necessity. If you’re out in the market looking for a laptop under Rs 25,000, there aren’t a lot of options available, but you do have some choice. Do note that laptops in this price bracket do not come with the best of hardware. They will perform better than a mid-range tablet, but you can definitely rule out heavy multi-tasking 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. With that out of the way, let’s take a look at some of the more notable laptops that you can get under Rs 25000.
Powered by the dual core AMD Athlon A4, the HP 14p comes very close to breaching the Rs 25,000 threshold. But what it manages to pack is still rather admirable. The 14-inch display comes with a resolution of 1366x768 pixels. Perhaps the most impressive thing about this laptop is that it comes with a 256GB SSD as stock, a feature that most laptops, even that cost a lot more, sometimes avoid. The laptop also sports 4GB of DDR4 memory and manages to weigh under 2 kilos.
