Who it suits

It is usually bought for work and study and anyone replacing an ageing laptop.

Background

A laptop is a set of compromises between speed, battery life, weight and screen size. There is no configuration that wins on all four, so the useful question is which of them you are willing to give up. Against the other 4139 laptops we list, this one sits around the middle of the range at R20 562, with most falling between R3 609 and R41 862.

Points to check

• Memory is the specification most people under-buy. It is also the hardest to change later on thin machines where it is soldered.
• Confirm the variant matches the one you need; near-identical model codes often differ in one specification that matters.
• Match the processor to the work: light office and browsing needs far less than video editing or compiling.
