Hi guys :)

Please suggest a laptop [for my friend]

Budget - 20-31K. Strictly max is 31k.

Screen size - 15.5"

TIA :D
 
Dell Inspiron 15R.

When it comes to lappies, I can only think of Dell :ohyeah:

BTW, I am thinking it would be priced very slightly above 31k if you buy it from a Dell Reseller rather than a Dell gallery. Otherwise, the Dell India website shows the price as 33.9k

Link: Inspiron 15R Laptop Details | Dell India

But believe me, it is worth the price even at 33.9k... :)

G560's touch pad seems to be horrible (close to worst :P ) Even i had a choice between the two and decided to go with the Acer.

Battery is Okish. With wi-fi off we can use it for close to 3 hrs or so with moderate brightness.

Also keep in mind that the Acer's mono speakers is not that great. Movie experience will suck big time. Heap phones usage highly recommended. That said it will suffice for a Youtube playback.

31k seems pretty high for that Acer. I guess it sells for ~29k. Check couple of other stores. For 33k you can get almost similar Dell config with original Windows 7, better build, better speakers and great A.S.S.

I went with the Acer coz i got it from US for $400 ;)
