1) What is your budget? (INR or USD)

It's Around 30k can go up if product is too much value for money
2) What size & weight consideration (if any) would you prefer?

Thin and Light; 12" - 14" screen
Mainstream; 15" - 16" screen
Any day would prefer light laptop if its near my budget else no issue in normal laptop weight



3) What are the primary tasks you will be performing with this notebook?
I will be using it for browsing(I always keep 50+ tabs open in my chrome) and watching movie and music 99% time but if it can play battlefield 4 at lowest setting that would great but not necessarily must have :p

5) Any typical configuration in your mind you're eying for ?
Thinking if i3 5th gen or i5 5th gen . As I heard AMD A8 is slower in daily to daily work compare to i3 5th gen

4) Are there any brands that you prefer or any you really don't like?
a. Like:
b. Dislike:


6) Anything else you would like to say?
Would be great if it has backlight keyboard else no issue

Try to get a second hand laptop with 750M. Laptops in 30k budget have crap GPUs, won't be able to run BF4 on lowest settings.

How's it going ? Planning to get something similar. Dell and HP are expensive than this...

I can understand you situation . I got its warranty upgrade to 3years in which 1year is also cover accidental damage .

Now about performance its doing great I play at least two hours on it . Use battlefield auto graphic option else you will keep getting low ram error
Two thing negative is
1. RAM its less . My advice get it upgrade to 8gb .
2. if you try to upgrade Urself then warranty get void :/ . so only way is service centre.
