So, hello everyone.
I have a hard time chosing between laptops. Price range is around €500.
I've never bought a laptop before, so I'm not sure what to look at.
My needs are very basic. Browsing the web, using office, maybe watch a serie or a youtube vid from time to time and thats it.
I do want this laptop to last some time, preferably without having to upgrade it.
A couple options I have found (links are Dutch, as am I):
http://tweakers.net/reviews/2922/2/l...n-prijzen.html
http://www.komplett.nl/komplett/prod...b/details.aspx
The second link is actually from the outlet of the shop. It sells computers at a discount who have been used as a showroommodel, or have slight damage on the casing or something like that, which I don't mind.
It saves me €250, so thats quite something.
The sony from the komplettlink comes with windows 7, but is upgradeable to windows 8 for €15 (I want 8).
Both laptops come with an i5, the komplett one has a second gen though (i5-2450M).
The twakerslaptop has a third gen i5 3210M. Is the difference big/noticeable between generations?
They both have 4gb RAM and 500gb Harddisc (which will be enough)
the sony laptop's RAM is clocked @ 1333 MHz, can't find any info about the tweakers RAM speed.
Thing I noticed about the tweakers laptop is its battery. Don't really know anything about it, but its capacity is 2200mAh, which seems a bit low (have seen alot of laptops at 3-4k instead of 2.2).
The komplettlink doesn't give any info about the battery's power capacity, only the duration, which is 5 hours.
So, in short, which laptop would you recommend and why?
And if you know any other laptop which you think is better in the same price range, that would be great as well.
Awaiting your responses eagerly!
