As the title suggests, I'm looking for a new laptop for general purpose + heavy web browsing + entertainment purpose.
Budget : $700 ( ₹ 50,000 )
Country : India
The required specifications are as below.
CPU: Core i5 or Ryzen 5
RAM : 8 GB DDR4
Screen : 15.6" or more ( bright and vibrant color)
Display type : IPS is highly preferred but a great TN panel with good color accuracy and good brightness-contrast ratio will work too.
OS : Windows 10
CAD/video editing/photo editing/gaming? : None.
Things which don't matter: Form factor, battery life, thickness, weight, or build quality. I will use this laptop mostly indoor and keep it plugged in.
A backlit keyboard will be good. But it's not absolute necessary.
I'm looking for a better than good display for movie watching experience and YouTube streaming with good brightness and color accuracy. I looked up many laptops but many of them sell TN,VA or TFT display. The ones which sell IPS display have low color accuracy with not so bright screen. I was unsatisfied with the most displays which fall in my budget. A friend of mine suggested me to get a laptop with decent IPS display and use a software for color calibration. I'm not sure how much it will change the quality of output. If you have any experience regarding this then please do share.
I want to use this laptop for 3-4 years at least.
Thanks
