As we grow and develop in life, at some point, advancement is required and this is also applicable to the kind of gadgets and accessories we use. A lot of the times, a computer/laptop makes the work easier, faster and smoother, but just like is the case with owning one, the price is a huge determinant.
People spend hundreds of dollars to acquire a laptop and for the average man, as much owning one would be essential, the sum becomes just too much of an amount to part with.
Is there a solution that gets you a trusted pc but at a budget friendly price?
Say hello to refurbished laptops.
Refurbished laptops are almost as good as new, simply second hand devices that have undergone checks and retouches with adequate fixes, to make them ready for consumer usage. Better still is when a refurbished laptop is certified for usage, this gives you all the confidence you need to Make a patronage.
Now whether you do a 9–5 or you work from home, here are budget friendly refurbished laptops that offer you more at less.
1. LENOVO IDEAPAD 3 14
If you’re in the market for a budget laptop, you’re faced with some tough decisions. Balancing a tight budget with a feature set that mostly consists of the necessities isn’t easy when you’re evaluating a sea of machines that all look more or less the same. So when you come across a standout inexpensive laptop like the Lenovo IdeaPad 3 14, it’s a welcome reprieve. At $519, it leans toward the expensive end of the budget spectrum, but this 14-incher comes packed with just about everything you’d want for a notebook in its price range, including a full HD display, a sturdy chassis, and a comfortable keyboard, all pulled together by on-point performance and some unexpected luxuries for the money.
2. ACER CHROMEBOOK SPIN 514
The Acer Chromebook Spin 713 won our hearts impressing us with its 13.5-inch touch screen shaped in a 3:2 aspect ratio, as well as its speedy solid-state drive instead of eMMC flash storage. The Acer Chromebook Spin 514 (starts at $479.99, $599.99 as tested) is a more conventional convertible with a 14-inch touch screen with the familiar 16:9 aspect ratio, though its 128GB of eMMC storage and 8GB of RAM are each double the usual Chromebook allotment.
If you want a handy work station that satisfies consumer needs, then this would be a wonderful option.
3. DELL INSPIRON 15 3000 (3511)
As a budget laptop shopper, you’ve got to be willing to make some sacrifices in pursuit of the best value, especially when searching in the $300 to $500 range. Dell’s Inspiron 3000 series, however, has proven itself to be an exception to the rule, offering quality budget notebooks at value prices. Like the 15-inch Dell Inspiron 15 3000 (3505) we reviewed earlier this year, the Dell Inspiron 15 3000 (3511) checks many of the boxes we look for in a good budget laptop — including a large 15.6-inch display, an easy-to-swallow $323 asking price, and Microsoft’s latest operating system, Windows 11. Aspects of the display betray the laptop’s budget roots, but it’s a decent deal for the money if you decidedly want a Windows machine over a Chromebook.
The Dell Inspiron 15 3000 (3511) comes equipped with 4GB of RAM, 128GB of solid-state drive storage, an integrated Intel UHD graphics chip, and an Intel Core i3–1115G4 processor. It wades in the shallow end of the graphics pool and comes with half the memory we’d expect of a decent laptop, but the processor is still a step up from the basement-dwelling Celeron CPU used in even cheaper laptops. Our entry-level test configuration is available at $323, but there are configurations available that include up to 12GB of RAM, an Iris Xe graphics solution, and up to 512GB of storage if you’re willing to spend some extra coin
4. MICROSOFT SURFACE GO 3
Although it runs Windows 11 and can be used with an optional keyboard, the Microsoft Surface Go 3 is a tablet designed to compete with Chrome books and the Apple iPad, not traditional laptops. A compelling starting price of $399.99, coupled with the refined styling and high-quality construction we’ve come to expect from the Surface product family, make this the best inexpensive Windows-powered 2-in-1 tablet you can buy.
The Surface Go 3 follows a familiar design formula. It’s a rectangular touch-screen tablet with an integrated kickstand. Weighing just 1.2 pounds and measuring 0.33 by 9.7 by 6.9 inches (HWD), it’s equally at home in your hands or propped up on a table. That distinguishes it from most other 2-in-1 convertible laptops, which typically weigh at least twice as much and have permanently-attached keyboards that make them less natural to use as true tablets.
This is a rather handy and wonderful pc for workers who are always on the move. Easy to carry and perfect features for an affordable price
5. HP CHROMEBOOK X2
The HP Chromebook x2 offers quite a few things that other budget laptops don’t, such as a colorful 2400 x 1600 display and a solid pair of speakers. As I watched the Captain Marvel trailer on the HP Chromebook x2, I admired its 2400 x 1600-pixel panel. Colors looked great on the x2’s display, from the jade of Captain Marvel’s uniform to the rich, inky black of a dark corridor she walked through.
Additionally, the Chromebook x2 offers a comfortable keyboard and a battery that lasts nearly 9 hours on a single charge. But the cherry on top is that it comes included with HP’s Active Pen, which kept up with even our fastest drawings. The HP Chromebook x2 is one of the best Chromebooks around for the price.
