Along with the increasing need to work from home, it is important to have a laptop with a strong performance to support your productivity. Since there are many types of laptops with various specifications on the market, choosing the one that suits your needs is not as easy as it seems. Fortunately, now you can buy a laptop online so you don’t have to go to many gadget stores to compare products. To prevent you from buying the wrong laptop online and ending up regretting it, here are some things you should consider.
Laptop Storage System
When using a laptop, you will save a lot of data. Therefore, you need to consider the laptop’s storage system. If you need a large storage capacity, then the HDD is a great option. The price is relatively more affordable than laptops with SSDs.
However, although they tend to be more expensive, SSDs offer faster read-write capabilities than HDDs. If you plan to also use a laptop for gaming in addition to work, a laptop with an SSD is a better choice.
Battery Performance
As a portable device, your laptop needs to have good battery performance. Before buying a laptop online, find out the number of cells and mAh capacity it offers. Ideally, the higher the capacity of these two aspects, your laptop battery will offer stronger performance.
Laptop Processor
The processor is one of the most important components that determine a laptop’s performance. Some of the recommended Intel processors on laptops are Core i7 for high-end and Core i9 for perfect performance. As for AMD, the processors that are equivalent to Core i7 and i9 are the Ryzen 4000 series or A series.
In addition to the processor, another important component that you also need to consider before buying a laptop online is Random Access Memory (RAM). In the market, the minimum RAM capacity is 4 GB and ideally 8 GB. However, usually, you can upgrade your own RAM up to 16 GB, 32 GB, or 64 GB. The greater the RAM capacity is, the better the laptop's performance will be for multitasking or performing various applications at once.
Consider the Screen Size and Laptop Weight
To make sure you can use the laptop comfortably, don’t forget to consider the laptop's screen size. This will also affect the laptop's weight. Currently, there are generally four laptop screen sizes available in the market, which are 11 inches, 14 inches, 15 inches, and 17 inches.
For example, an 11-inch laptop typically weighs around 1.1 kg, while a 15-inch laptop weighs around 2.4 kg. If you plan to bring a laptop to work in various places, it’s best to consider choosing a lightweight laptop to facilitate your mobility.
Laptop Camera
If you plan to use a laptop for online meetings, you need to pay attention to the built-in camera feature. Before buying a laptop online, make sure the laptop has a good camera quality so that it can show your face clearly during online meetings.
The minimum recommended laptop camera resolution is 720 pixels. The higher the resolution level, of course, the better. This way, you don't need to install any additional camera. Besides, the video recording with a high-resolution camera will also be clearer.
Laptop Connectivity
In this digital era, the need for Wi-Fi is unquestionable. However, in addition to ensuring a Wi-Fi connection when buying a laptop online, make sure to also consider other connectivity features. Today, many brands offer laptops with thin designs, thus they can only provide Type-C ports on their laptops. The port is capable of supporting data exchange flows up to 40 Gbps. Because of the laptop's thin design, some other supporting ports such as HDMI and LAN are starting to be eliminated. As an alternative, you can use a dongle as a port extension.
Laptop Design
Laptop design has undergone many innovations along with technological developments. If in the past most laptops were thick, now you can find laptops with super-thin designs that are light to carry anywhere. There is also a 2-in-1 design model that allows the laptop keyboard and screen to be detached up to 360 degrees.
Even so, you should avoid buying a laptop just because the design looks tempting. Before buying a laptop online, please reconsider your needs so that the laptop's sophisticated design features don't go to waste.
