Choose the right OS
The first thing is to choose the
Operating system in which you are comfortable to work with. Check the user
interface of the OS and then choose. The most popular OS are windows and MacOS.
Most laptops come with windows OS only the Apple macbook uses the MacOS. Chrome
OS is from the google and is used by few Chromebooks like Samsung chromebook
and the google pixelbook. Let see have a quick overview of these processor.
Windows OS
The most popular OS used by
almost every brands and UI of this OS is very friendly. You can find laptops
using this OS in almost every price range. Is has a variety of features like
touchscreens, fingerprint scanner and dual graphics chips. The latest version
of the windows also has an AI assistant named Cortana. And the gamers must
prefer this OS as it is very much recommended.
MacOS
Apple’s latest desktop operating
system is the MacOS Catalina. The performs similar to the windows but with a
little different UI the apps of the MacOS the apps docks are at the bottom of
the screen where the windows startup menu and taskbar are located. The AI
assistant of the MacOS is called siri that apple iphone uses. But with this OS
do not support touch screen feature and there is no macbook with touchscreen.
ChromeOS
The OS is simple and secure and
but has limited features compared to windows and MacOS. The UI of this OS is
very much similar to windows. Many of the web apps you use do not work while in
offline mode. If you just need a device to surf the web, check you email and
use social media then this OS will be very useful for you.
Hybrid laptops
These are the 2 in 1 laptops you can
use it in both ways like a normal laptop or like a tablet by turning it 360
degree backwards or the screen detaches of the keyboard. These laptops are
useful in some ways. These hybrid laptops are priced high due its 2 in 1
feature but if you do not need such laptop you get a normal laptop with much
more performance in the same budget.
Screen size
Get the right screen size laptop
according to your need. If you want a portable laptop then you must go for a
smaller size. The small screen laptops are the thinnest and the lightest
laptops. The medium sized laptops i.e.,15-16 inches are the most common size
most of the laptops uses this size.
And for gaming purpose you should
go for large screen laptops i.e., 17-18 inches screen and it always need to
stay on desk you cannot use it on your lap and carrying this wouldn’t be easy.
Check the keyboard and the trackpad
Make sure the keyboard is tactile
enough and has great key travel for better typing experience. The trackpad must
be precise with multitouch gestures.
A professional laptop must have good keyboard
and trackpad but for the gaming laptop one should not rely on the laptop
keyboard or trackpad as gaming cannot be done with it you must need separate
gaming mouse and keyboard.
