See the details, specs, pros cons and prices of these laptops below
1. Asus Vivobook Celeron 15.6 inch Laptop

From the Vivobook series of Asus, we bring the Vivobook Celeron Dual. Asus is known to make pretty good laptops and this is another example of the same. Let’s get the specs out of the way first.
The CPU that the Vivobook runs on is a. 8th gen Dual-core Celeron processor that’s clocked at 1.1GHz and can go up to 2.6GHz at boost with integrated graphics UHD 600. There is 4GB LPDDR4 to handle multitasking and there is 500GB of Internal storage for storing things. The performance should be good as the hardware running the show is pretty decent. The OS is Windows 10 Home and it will run just fine given the hardware in the laptop.
The screen size is what truly makes this laptop nice and compact. At 15.6 inches and a resolution of 1366x768 pixels, we actually have a great screen especially because of its compact. The picture quality of the panel should be good. The screen folds back all the way to 180degrees to fit accordingly to the user's needs.
As for ports, we have a great option out here. To the left of the laptop, we have the power port, Micro SD card slot, 1 HDMI port, one of the 2 types A USB 3.0 ports, 1 type C USB 3.0 port. To the right, we have the second type A USB port and the headphone jack.
The best or worst part about the laptop depending on the user is this that it does not have an optical disk drive thus the form factor does not only become small but also light. On the battery front, Asus promises a battery life of 6 hours but we expect the real-world usage to be somewhere around 4 to 5 hours. The keyboard is chicklet style and at under 20k price is not going to win the keyboard of the year award. However, is definitely going to be completely usable. Finally, a VGA webcam sits to the top of the display for occasional video calls.
All in all, for a price of under 20000 this is a good laptop if your planning on doing lightweight tasks.
