MSI Wind u100 if you want something very portable and don't want to game on a laptop. You can find one on AGN Computers. LG R500 is also a good Laptop with many features but it's gaming performance still not that good even though it has a nVIDIA 8600M GPU. It's cost is 64000 @ Galaxy.

You should also mention if you want it for casual purposes or gaming. But I'd say that you go for Sony Vaio series, they have the best quality. But if you want specs in less price then you can go for Acer or Dell, even HP.

I also would advise you to first write out your purpose for buying a laptop. It would help in a better recommendation. As wheels has mentioned the Vaio series is the best really minus the gaming area.

But if you don't want gaming and you also have a budget of 70K, then obviously you can buy VAIO. What say?

MSI Wind u100 it's ultra portable. Only has a 10" screen and costs 40000 Rs. and is capable of doing all the things you want. if you want a bigger screen then go for any Dell one I personally doesn't like HP.

for your requirements.

i think acer and toshiba both are good , for the price you are mentioning and your purpose meets the criteria with toshiba and acer,



acer is good and cheap too plus very good looking laptops
toshiba is very good , best battery time plus most of toshiba models can be use for dual booting while other machine are not able to do so one more thing toshiba is also a little bit expensive too

dell is also good in look but its reported to be a buggy one hardware wise

i think go for toshiba or acer.......they are good for normal use........!

    Did y'all see the new Assassin's Creed trailer? They finally made a AC set in Japan & then they put a negro as the male protagonist. Ubisoft is taking cues from Disney, and it isn't gonna end well for them, just like Disney. Go woke, go broke!

    Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    So i just found out that f***ing s***bag Microsoft shut down Arkane Studio (makers of the brilliant Dishonored series) and Tango Gameworks (makers of the iconic The Evil Within series), among some other studios. I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.
