When it comes to cheap laptops not all of us know where to look (or what to look for sometimes) so we have come up with this guide to help you understand the lingo and find the perfect laptop for you. Don't worry; it's all in this guide.
OK so in order to find a good deal for your money you first have to decide what sort of laptop you want to go for. Who are you buying this laptop for? Is it for you? Is it for one of your children or is it for work purposes? What are you going to be using it for? Are you going to be surfing the net? Word processing or storing all your important files on it? By deciding on how the laptop is going to be used, you can come up with a list of requirements that will help you decide which laptop to go for. When you have your list of requirements you can start looking. When comparing laptops it's often best to do some research online. You can check out all the stores online and bring up a few laptops that you like the look of. Then one by one go through your list of requirements and see how many match. Finally judge the remaining laptops with the final price and you should have a winner.
Looking at buying a laptop more methodically rather than just going for the cheapest means that you will actually save money in the future. Lots of people buy cheap laptops because they are blinded by the great price, they then find when they get it home that the laptop doesn't have half of the components that they want and they end up spending out even more on dongles, external hard drives etc. This makes the cheap laptop not so cheap after all. It doesn't take much to compare the different deals and once you know what you are looking for then you can discount certain deals quicker.
Other things to consider when you are looking for a good cheap laptop are the delivery costs. You may need your laptop the very next day in which case you should expect to pay at least 10 for the privilege. Some sites do a free postage over a few hundred pounds and others do free delivery straight away. Take the delivery costs into account when you price up your laptop as this may make it more expensive than another deal. The final thing to shop around for is the finance. If you plan to pay in installments then take a look at the final repayment figure and see if you are still getting a good deal. Once all of these things are taken into account, you will finally have found a good deal for your cheap laptop.
