Buying a new laptop? That’s exciting — but it’s also overwhelming. RAM, SSD, processors, battery life… and then all those reviews.
At LINEtech, we believe shopping for tech shouldn’t be complicated. That’s why we created this quick, 3-minute checklist to help you choose the right laptop — no stress, no regrets.
Let’s get started.
✅ 1. What are you using it for?
Be brutally honest.
Use Case | What You Should Look For |
College / Notes / Docs | i3 or Ryzen 3, 8 GB RAM, SSD |
Content Creation | i5/i7 or Ryzen 5/7, 16 GB RAM, good GPU |
Web Browsing / Streaming | Basic processor + SSD |
Gaming | High refresh display, powerful GPU (Nvidia/AMD) |
✅ 2. How much storage do you actually need?
Most people don’t need 1TB.Here’s a simple guide:
256 GB SSD – More than enough for students or everyday users
512 GB SSD – Safe middle ground
1 TB SSD or Hybrid – Ideal for creators, gamers, or pros with large files
💡 Tip: Always choose SSD over HDD — your laptop will be way faster.
✅ 3. Battery vs. Power? Pick your priority.
Portable users (college, cafes) → Prioritize battery life (8+ hrs)
Desk setups / heavy users → Choose performance over portability
If you’re both? Look for a balance — mid-range CPU, no dedicated GPU.
✅ 4. Do you need a touchscreen? A backlit keyboard? A numeric pad?
These little features can make a big difference — but only if you’ll use them.Don’t pay extra for things you won’t touch.
✅ 5. OS Preference? Windows, macOS, or ChromeOS?
Windows – Most flexible, all-purpose
macOS – Premium feel, great for creators, but pricey
ChromeOS – Very budget-friendly, great for basic use
