Top 5 Best Laptops in Nigeria Priced Under N60,000 (2015)

Nowadays, purchasing a new laptop isn’t a big deal due to the heavy competition between the laptop industries. Every 3 months, new sets and model of laptops are being launched with loads of sophisticated features, but beware that most of the laptop industries don’t maintain our demand, that is, producing laptops with low specifications and also being priced high.


Before purchasing any set of laptop, there are some things to be considered. I would quickly brief you on what you should notify before you buy a new laptop.
  • Always try to look into the size of the laptop. The modern technologies ensure that more sophisticated gadgets should take its simplicity, and integration of its component also shows its simplicity. So the best laptop size you should consider should be at the range of 1-1.5kg, any size exceeding that limit isn’t proper. Also look for laptop which it’s screen that ranges from 12.5-13.3 inches.
  • Screen quality is another factor to be considered when purchasing a new laptop. Do endeavor check the quality of the laptop screen and make sure it’s a high quality screen display. Laptops with screen resolution 1920x1080 aka full HD is a good example of a high quality screen display.
  • Also check for the keyboard quality. This is another major factor that is considered. Make sure that the size of the keyboard looks responsive and very comfortable.
  • CPU is another factor I do advice you check on most. I never miss this aspect whenever am going through some laptops to buy. Make sure the CPU is of great impact. Like the best performing CPU, lies between the Core i3, Core i5 and Core i7. The processor speed should also be considered.
  • Also try to check upon the RAM of the laptop. The RAM of the laptop is what determines the speed of the system, as it is also the RAM that helps you run multiple programs at the same time with quality speed. The minimum RAM a good laptop should have is 2GB or higher.
  • Also check the storage of the laptop. Storage of the laptop all depends on how useful the laptop is to you. If you do want to purchase a laptop mostly for storage and other related activities, then I advise you go for a laptop with a 320GB or higher storage memory.
  • The battery life of the laptop is also another factor to be considered when buying a new laptop. Try to check the on the standby time of the laptop. Of course, a good laptop should last at least 7 hours, so try to check on the battery life of the laptop.
  • Finally, try to check on the wireless connections, networking and also connectivity’s of the laptop, as it would also make your laptop perform effectively.
