Best laptop under 80k in Nepal
1.Acer Extensa 15
The first entry on this best of list is the 2021 edition of the Acer Extensa 15. Extensa is a series known for its affordable laptops for small businesses. These laptops therefore have a simple design and are usually all black, like the Nepalese models. In other words, the Acer Extensa is more about the powerful hardware and useful features it packs than its sporty looks.
Speaking of specs, it packs an 11th Gen Intel Core i5-1135G7 processor.
There's no discrete graphics card, so you'll have to rely on the integrated Iris Xe for all visual tasks. The laptop comes standard with 8GB of DDR4 RAM, but users can expand it up to 16GB. You also get dual-drive storage out of the box, with a 256GB SSD and a 1TB hard drive.
The Acer Extensa
features a large 15.6-inch IPS LCD display with FHD+ resolution.
It's also compatible with Acer's ComfyView technology for a comfortable viewing experience. On the other hand, this laptop lacks Wi-Fi 6 and Type-C connectivity. The 36.7 Wh battery isn't the largest on this list either.
