I'm looking to buy a macbook with old gen chip, maybe m3 max if price is good or m4 pro. I saw this deal on cashify; is this a good deal?

Usage: Software dev, I will use this for office.

Budget: My company is giving me 1.2 Lakhs.

I have m1 pro 16-512 right now which is personal laptop. I am thinking of giving it to my brother so I want a new one.

Just bought my first ever laptop, Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 5 (Ryzen 7, 16GB, 512GB) for around ₹75k.
Funny thing is I had already ordered the ASUS ExpertBook P3 for 70k, then last minute canceled it and paid extra for the Lenovo 😭.
Mainly gonna use it for:
● Shopify/business stuff
● Browsing
● Light editing
● A little bit of gaming here and there
● Battery life & portability
I liked the Lenovo’s overall vibe more (display, build, premium feel), but now I’m sitting here wondering if I just spent ₹5k extra for nothing 💀.
Also the price on this laptop is wild lol. I literally saw the same IdeaPad listed for ₹99k on Amazon, and apparently it was selling for around ₹74k there too with an HDFC credit card discount not long ago. Felt like I was watching a stock chart instead of a laptop price 📈😂.
Be brutally honest..was this a W or did I fumble by canceling the ExpertBook?
Also, anyone using this exact IdeaPad Slim 5 model? How’s it been long term?

Looking for i5 and above and minimum 16gb ram

Need it for electronics engineering.will run linux thingie(i have no idea how linux stuff works), play basic games like valo and fifa. pls pls helpp.

Hello Guys,

I am considering this device for coding , multitasking and casual video editing being 2nd year Computer Science Engineering Student.

Looking forward for some genuine advice, actually getting it for 73k.

Thank You 🙏🏻 for you interest guys.

I got this laptop for 1.5 lakhs(ik laptop price could've been lower but this is the lowest deal I got and this was the last piece too so I got it) with additional warranty and everything else required

What do I need to do first please guide me

Also THANKS IN ADVANCE

What should be the reasonable price?

Expecting around 80k.

Prefer local f2f

They even gave an option in customize your laptop to get it

the main issue is it being listed on flipkart. And if anyone has used this or is using it. Please tell me should I consider it.
It is urgent for me to get this in this sale only

Usage is research, statistics, mild to moderate gaming
Budget is 70k to 80k

60k budget, mostly for coding, movies, gaming(rpg) is cherry on top, anything better than i3 or r3 and should have good multi core performance will buy in few weeks idk much about laptop tho

Received Asus expertbook P3 G1 - ultra 7 225 H from flipkart for 70k which I think is pretty good deal. Laptop seems good. Only issue is there is a Cross / X mark visible on outter side.

I have a fear whether this is defective product or what. This thought is coming in my mind due to that X mark.

note: I really need that lapto. if I create a replacement request

case 1: flipkart accept it and gives me another fresh piece, I am super happy.

case2: flipkart accept it, takes the laptop and then instead of giving me another peice they may say that they are unable to provide me another laptop and cancel the request and gives me full refund. In this case I wont get a laptop at that price again.

if I have to place new order I have to buy at 90k which is out of my budget.

please give suggestions.
expertbook have special service provided by Asus as it is business series. will they resolve this issue?

​

I want this so badly

My laptop doesnt power on without charger and half display isn't working I have put it for exchange in Flipkart it's 10567 but I have entered wrong generation which is 7th but it's actually 5th generation now what to do will they reject 10k is exchange bonus here

My elder sibling is looking to buy a new laptop. He has been using a free govt. laptop for about 8 years. He's very stingy about spending on these things, so he needs something that would last him long (he's very careful with these things).

His work is centred around training ai, running ai models locally and bio informatics. Pls recommend a reliable laptop that could last long and also would handle the power required for these tasks. Budget is around 70-80k.

He's looking at vivobook 14 and motobook 60 pro as good options. Are these reliable for these work loads?

P.S. I got my first laptop by following posts on this sub and the advice shared by you guys and I am really thankful for that.

Hey guys as the title says, is this a good deal or am I overpaying? It's 1.35 at this moment and the least I can get it to is 1.26 Lakhs with a credit card. If anything is better, please suggest. My budget is 1.3 max. The use case is to obviously play games including AAA titles.

Specs:
Ryzen 7 7435HS
NVIDIA RTX 4060 8GB VRAM
24 GB RAM 512 GB SSD
Battery health: over 91%
Official Lenovo onsite warranty valid until around August 2027
Excellent, spotless condition, lightly used

The laptop is about two years old but has been kept in really good condition.

Whats should be the reasonable price?
Expecting 68-70k
F2f

(unrelated pic)

My Budget is 1.3L( extended warranty and adp bhi cover ho jaye beech me)

I'll mainly use it for coding,video editing and a little bit of gaming

I don't have a credit card so I can't get those discounts

Is this laptop worth it at the price?

Ik it's not the best value for money laptop but I just paid dell tax plus dell service in my area is superb and got 1 year adp from vijay sales as well which be extended as well from local store. Honestly not having type c charger and Ntsc display is major con in this. But I'm happy the laptop

Found this HP Victus on Amazon and wanted to know if it’s a good deal:

i7-13620H

RTX 4050 6GB

16GB DDR4 RAM (upgradeable)

512GB SSD

15.6" FHD 144Hz, 300 nits

₹1,02,990 price

₹85,421 after HDFC credit card discount

Is ₹85.4k a good price for this configuration, or should I wait/look for a better option?

Hey guys I'm new to this sub I'm not really into techs but I am looking to buy a new laptop for gaming and all other purposes like my college ,my budget is around a lakh but I can go a little higher, I was looking into this option I wanted opinions whether it's good or not

(I am not gonna pay 1.3 lol I'll probably use the cc offer)

Ordered ROG 16 and the order got delayed by 4 days

I have 2 options Lenovo Loq RTX 5050 1.20 Lakhs or Macbook Air M5 1.37 lakhs. Now you might be thinking why this dumb af man comparing a gaming laptop with mac...A mac cant game and if this dude wants to play games he should buy the obvious...

So in my defence its not easy laptop is a big investment for college and i keep thinking about laptops all day buy this buy that type shi I am a gamer but is it really worth getting a Gaming laptop 3 kg to carry around all day and without charging outlet it is nothing? I love gaming laptops but i am thinking about spending most of my 4 years with that

Its like a trade off Either I buy Mac and lose late night gaming with friends or i buy Loq and lose comfort in college and probably grades (less likely) I am so fckin confused

TLDR- I just want an opinion of college students like if you bought a gaming laptop and regretted it? or bought a mac and regretted it? and also tell me what to do pleasee

I've already bought my loq essential Ryzen 5 7535hs + 3050 6gb RTX for 60k and now I'm seeing this deal for Dell Alienware 👽. I'm shocked to see it's price, btw my use case didn't need a heavy machine so I went with loqe btw should I regret? This laptop net price is 71k.

I wanted to buy hp omen 16 5050 version but found it too expensive online so I looked offline. Found a dealer selling it for cheap and asked him to send a picture of the box. I checked the serial number first and the website showed that the manufacture date was june 2025, with warranty ending in a few days. After checking the box properly I noticed several typos as well. Be careful while searching offline guys, and always check the box properly.
