The Pavilion x360 from HP is the perfect go-to student’s laptop owing perfect balance between price, specs, and features. The x360 lies in a category of laptops called 2 in 1 or convertibles.

Let us get the specs out of the way at first. At the heart of the laptop lies the Dual-channel Intel 10th gen i3 processor clocked at 2.1GHz and can be overclocked to 4.1GHz. The RAM on board is a 4GB DDR4 while the storage is a 256GB SSD and will definitely be faster than traditional HDD based storage. The hardware is complemented by windows 10 Home that has support to run the x360 on both windows for desktop and on tablet mode when the x360 is turned into a tablet.

To the left side of the laptop, we have a type-A USB 3.1 port, air vent, and the power button. On the right hand, we have a proprietary power port, HDMI port a USB 3.1 type A port, a 3.1 type C port and finally a full-sized SD card port.

The screen at 14 inch sits at the sweet spot. The only drawback is that it tops at HD resolution running at 1366X768p. However, where HP completely makes up for the average panel is with touch support. Not only this but HP also includes an Active Stylus for screenwriting. This makes the x360 perfect for a student for writing e-notes. Finally like all other laptops, we have an HD webcam that gets the occasional video chat doable.

Since it is a 2 in 1 laptop, it is lightweight, weighing about 1.5 Kg.  For the battery, we have a 3 cell setup and this combined with the internals and the HD display gives a 5 to 5.5 hours of battery life.

All in all, for a price of under 45000 the X360 in our opinion is one of the best laptops on our list. Especially if you are a student.

Image of Dell Inspiron 3593 10th Gen Core i3 15.6 inch Laptop which is one of the best laptops under 45000

Dell Inspiron 15 3000 is another best laptop under 50000 especially because the 3000 series of laptops from dell focuses on providing powerful laptops at an affordable price.

The Inspiron 3000 runs on a 10th generation Intel i3 processor which like the competition before runs at a base clock speed of 1.2GHz which is very decent for the price.  The processor gets coupled to a 4GB of DDR4 RAM and a 1TB of internal storage for storing documents, movies, software, and other content.

On the software side of things, we have windows 10 Home running the show. Microsoft MS Office also comes preloaded that gives you a smooth and easy setup to start with. The build of the laptop is mainly plastic but its pretty solid. The silver color gives the laptop a very professional and industrial look and, in our books, it’s great.  The display used is again a very standard one. A 15.6-inch anti-glare FHD panel with a resolution of 1920X1080p. The webcam that sits on top of the display is a 720p one and will get the job done.

The Battery is a 3 cell one and a battery life of 5 to 6 hours can be expected out of it easily. However personal mileage might vary. The port selection is pretty solid too. We have the power, ethernet, USB, HDMI, USB Type C, 3.5 mm headphone jack, and other regular ports available on this laptop.

The Inspiron 3593 doesn’t stir any design or extravagant feature as there is nothing out of the box in this Dell Inspiron laptop but it just gets the basics right and for a budget of under 45000 to 50000, it is a decent Dell laptop.

The laptop runs on Intel’s 8th gen i5 processor and is clocked at its traditional speed 1.6GHz at base and 3.4GHz at boost. The processor is backed up by 4GB of DDR4 RAM and 16GB of Intel’s Optane memory along with the 1TB hard drive.

Now, what is this Optane that we are talking? What the Optane memory does is this that he helps in faster boot times and app bootups too. Optane memory combines the best of both worlds at an affordable price. There is also a dedicated graphics card in the form of a 2GB DDR5 NVIDIA MX130. This is good for light gaming, photoshop, and 1080p video edits. Speaking of games and software. Windows 10 Home is the brains that run the show on the software front.

The ports selection is also pretty solid with 2 USB 2.0 ports and a full-sized memory card slot to the left of the laptop. While the right side gets a power port, an HDMI port, a USB 3.1 Type C and 1 USB 3.0 port and a headphone jack port. This laptop also has a fingerprint sensor on the trackpad for faster biometric sign-ins.

The battery life is also pretty solid at 6 to 7 hours though Asus says 8 hours. The only thing that's slightly disappointing is the use of a VGA webcam. All in all, for a price of under 45000, Asus has done a great job and we are pretty sure you won’t regret choosing this one.
