1) What is your budget? - 35000


2) What size & weight consideration (if any) would you prefer?

Mainstream; 15" - 16" screen

3) What are the primary tasks you will be performing with this notebook?

Studying, using AutoCAD, and other such related applications a architecture student would use.

5) Any typical configuration in your mind you're eying for ?
i5, 8 gb ram, 500 -1 tb hdd, 2 gb graph?
4) Are there any brands that you prefer or any you really don't like?
Nothing really.


6) Anything else you would like to say?

I'll be using this laptop for college and I might carry it too. It would be good to have decent battery life but I think it's too much to expect at this budget. I expect it to last me atleast till the end of my studies.

So, my cousin needed a laptop. He's studying architecture and he's just starting out on autocad and other such related applications in his curriculum.
He needed something that will last him at least 2-3 years.

Budget is 33,000 INR. Would be willing to throw little bit more if it's worth it.
I'm confused with a lot of options, Help me out with this guys.

Fill this up first :--->
