Best Laptops Under 30000 in India (Sep 2020), Work from Home, Student.

30000 Rs price budget is the most preferable price range in the Indian market. This price range is more than enough for moderate users, like school & college student, office working users, or just home casual & entertainment use.

It can easily handle – Microsoft Office, Web browsing, Video call, photoshop, Telly, Android studio, and programming editor.

If you want to play high graphics games (PUBG PC, APEX, COD) or any other graphics related work (Animation, high video editing, 3d design) then you need to upgrade your budget at least 40000 Rs, because you need dedicated graphics card or at least Ryzen 5 3d gen chipset, which is not possible in this price range. Well, this is just a recommendation, you can go with 30000 Rs price range with some update (RAM & SSD).

In my point of view, the laptop brand is not very important. I try all the laptop brands and I didn’t find any major difference. Simple, it all depends on the price, high price means good quality hardware.

The brand name only matters for after-sales service, but you don’t need to worry about it, we check every thing before making this list.

Ryzen 5 > Intel i3 = Ryzen 3 – These are the best chipset you can get with a laptop under 30000 Rs. If you are a multitasking user or want a laptop for casual gaming and graphics related task, then Ryzen 5 is the best choice. Because dedicated graphics card in this price range is very rare, but Ryzen’s integrated Vega GPU is very powerful capable enough to play high graphics games at low settings.

For home use, office use, entertainment, office use and business purpose Intel i3 and Ryzen 3 are enough.

Only select 10th gen and 8th gen Intel processors, don’t go below this. For Ryzen CPU, only 3d and 2d gen option available right now.

You will easily get Ryzen 3 3d gen in this price range (most value for money) so I don’t recommend you go with Ryzen 3 2nd gen. For Ryzen 5 you only have 2nd gen option under 30000 Rs, 3d gen available in the market but for that, you need to upgrade budget up to 35000 Rs.

In this price range, most of the laptops have 4GB RAM. And it enough for office work and casual use. But for multitasking use and batter speed, you definitely need at least 8GB RAM, so always keep eye on expandable RAM. And for today’s use, I highly recommend you have at least 8 GB of RAM.

The RAM frequency and gen are also important but do not worry, you do not need to waste your time on such technical research, I have made this list by keeping all these in mind.

Most of the laptop in this price range comes with a 1TB HDD drive. Honestly, HDD is now old technology, for faster speed, you definitely need SSD drive. There are some laptops available in this price range, which comes with SSD, but it a little bit costly, so I recommend everyone to install SSD aftermarket. I always select those laptops in this list who have SSD upgrade option.

A dedicated GPU in this price range is not possible, so you need to settle with integrated GPU. You have Ryzen 5 with vega 8 combo at this price point, which is really powerful than some entry-level Nvidia GPU.

The new 10th gen intel’s integrated GPU is also very powerful, even powerful then Ryzen 3 3d gen, so for normal graphics related task its enough.

Apart from these, there are plenty of things you need to know before buying a laptop (Display, Battery, After service, Thermal..etc) but don’t worry me and my editor team work very hard to make your shopping easy.

1. Window Update: This the main reason behind the slow performance of your newly purchased laptop.
Don’t forget, the laptop you purchased was likely built 6-7 months ago, So when you first turn it on, it has to go and download and install all the Windows updates that have been released since. This task is a high CPU and disk-intensive task, and that why your laptop working very slow for a few hours. The actual time depends on the internet speed and laptop task. I highly advise you to don’t judge your laptop performance in the first 12 hours.

2. Bloatware: All brands give preinstalled third-party applications in the new laptop, as a revenue source. So, when you turn on your laptop for the first time, you may notice there’s already a lot of software preloaded. Much of it you’ll probably never use. This bloatware slows down your computer. So when you get a new laptop, check out the pre-installed software before further use, and uninstall anything that you won’t want.

3. Slow HDD Drive and low RAM: HDD drive is very slow for these days, for faster speed you definitely need SSD drive for your system Drive.
These days, our laptop definitely need 8GB RAM for stable performance, so if the laptop has only 4GB RAM then buy additional 4GB RAM and upgrade it.
