Honestly, too low of budget, has to be close to 70k for a convertible.

I'd say HP x360 is good for budget convertible:

Yes, just a newer, more powerful CPU compared to i5 10210U. The iGPU is much more powerful as well, close to Ryzen APUs.

Though not available right now....but would it be a better bet than the hp i5 11th generation?

Yes, R5 4500U is a bit better at multicore performance but Intel is better at single core, no huge difference realistically IMO.

I'd say both are good, get whichever is cheaper & in stock.

Sorry for the price,because it is well beyond the Rs.50k mark.
And this thread is created for maximum Rs.50k price of laptop.
Rest everything is here

That is a very good convertible.
But,isn't the Acer's screen quality,screen specs(3:2 aspect ratio),16GB LPDDR4 RAM,onboard charging wacom based active stylus ,etc. a hefty deal compared to Lenovo?

Ryzen 4500u will have better performance & battery backup so depending on price difference in oct bbd/gis sale decide accordingly.

Fully agreed,but Acer is sporting latest Intel core-i5 11th gen. processor. That is not bad either,comparing to Ryzen 4000 series.

I still prefer ryzen over intel though for typical tasks it should not matter. Btw ryzen 5xxx series models already appeared in market.

Yeah,that's the actual point. Ryzen 5xxx series TRULY ROCKSSSS ON in all aspects.
But it may take 2022 to appear in Kolkata.
I mean convertible laptops based on AMD Ryzen 5xxx.
Though Amazon and Flipkart will bring earlier,may be Diwali or Winter Sale Dhamaka.

Screen is good, yes. But do most people need that good for a screen? Likely no.

There are cheaper convertibles with 16GB RAM as well, but rare though.

You have touched the target bro.
Agreed and endorse your's with @whitestar_999 's points. Only thing is that since it is ACER,you get a Laptop at such hefty price point.
But DELL,HP,ASUS would take the PRICE POINT by more than 1lakh at same specs. and configuration.

As I mentioned earlier,I have no money to buy such a laptop. But it has penetrated my mind,I mean this ACER's model.

If
possible some months down the line....

forget about it (myself)....
