So you need Laptop under $ 500 but not sure what features to expect for in it. Lets take a brief look at what to expect and what not to expect for such kind of gadget.
Hard Disk Size
Nowadays in latest Laptops Hard disk sizes are coming in the range of 500 plus GB, but in budget Laptops under 400 dollars, the realistic one should be around 350 GB. Some companies are giving less as well( e.g 250 GB), depending upon the model and market, but still that’s what you’ll get.
Wireless Connectivity
This aspect set is an important one for a Laptop. The available options are WLAN and Bluetooth. Since Bluetooth is not that costly, you can expect it in laptops under 500 or 400 dollars, but WLAN its both the ways. It may or may not depend upon company to company.
USB Ports
Due to its easiness of use and speed, USB connectivity is quite common. A Laptop without any USB port shall not be of much use after all. So chances are pretty high that you shall get at least 2 USB ports in the Laptop that you tend or plan to buy.
High-End Graphics
If you want to play high end graphics such as latest video games and stuff like that, then don’t expect too much. These low end Laptops do not have a GPU or high-end graphics support as such. An average performing graphics is what seems to be realistic.
Latest Technological Advances
Latest and advance techs such as Thunderbolt or FireWire are difficult to find in budget Laptops. Some companies are giving FireWire but as said, they may compromise on other aspect. Thunderbolt is surely no no since it also requires high speed CPU that is missing in most budget Laptops.
Rugged or Robust
You can expect medium level of ruggedness in these devices since it again is a costly affair, which needs lots of testing and strength.
