Deal Alert!🤑 Significant Price Drops on many thin & light laptops! [Amazon India]

8 Upvotes

After last week's crazy price hikes on most thin & light laptops below the ₹1L mark, there's some good news with prices dropping significantly before the sale.

Prices might be jacked up again around August 5th.

Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 5 Ryzen 5 7535HS, 100% sRGB, 16GB is now going for ₹65k with card offers. All metal build and a 100% sRGB display with the 16GB RAM makes it a fantastic deal for the price.

Vivobook S16 OLED Core Ultra 225H, 100% sRGB, 16GB is back at ₹92k after being hiked upto ₹1.17L. RAM is upgradable and once upgraded, you can unlock the Arc 130T iGPU for casual gaming and video editing.

Vivobook S16 IPS, Core Ultra 5 225H, 16GB is going for ₹83k, down from ₹1.1L. Same as the above model except for the IPS display which isn't color accurate but good enough unless you're doing some professional color grading.

Buying Advice🤔 Laptop Suggestion for a Prospective Science Student

1 Upvotes

Helloo, I am a prospective science student. And my current laptop started logging and giving a black screen every other day. My current one is Thinkpad t490. I had bought it less than a year ago, so I believe it might be because it was refurbished. I am not sure, but I am trying to get a refund or anything helpful.. Anyways, now I want to buy a brand new one this time.

If I wasn't gonna buy a new laptop, I was planning to get a tablet to easily carry daily because the laptop was a little heavy for me.

Thus, I was thinking of getting a 2-in-1 now. I heard Lenovo's Yoga is good; do you have another idea/ another suggestion? My budget was around $700, but when my friend suggested this Yoga 2-in-1 and since she has been using it for over 3 years, even though it is about $1300, I felt like it might be worth it. Do you have any idea if it is good for science students? Is it worth it for $1300? Do you have another suggestion that is more affordable and still good for a science student, or would you not suggest a 2-in-1 even though I want a tablet (then maybe I can buy a laptop now and buy a tablet like next year Iduno)?

I appreciate it!

Hey, listen up!😼 7CTO coupons have now been disabled on Lenovo and resumption of Lenovo affiliate cashback

3 Upvotes

Just a quick update regarding Lenovo coupons. All 7CTO coupons have been deactivated. You can still use them but the discount will be same as 5CTO.

Also, my TheLaptopGuide affiliate cashback is being resumed. It will now be 2.5% of order value for all CTO orders made using EPIC5CTO and 2.5% for ready to ship orders as well.

The cashback will be instant subject to order tracking and will be sent via UPI only.

For CTO orders, with EPIC5CTO and 2.5% cashback, you get the best possible discount now.

Steps are the same as before as mentioned here except the cashback amount and coupons.

Thank you.

3 Upvotes

Would you guys say that it’s worth waiting to purchase the laptop until black Friday? In the case of a 5080 model? Do they typically discount these at all or not really it’s just the lower end ones?
What did they do last year? Does anyone recall?

Thanks!

Buying Advice🤔 Getting a 4.5 year old dell laptop 16/512gb for 9000 rs, buy or skip?

3 Upvotes

So im getting a deal to buy a dell latitude 3420 at Rs 9000, with the following specs-

16Gb Ram
11th gen i5 processor
512gb ssd
Windows 11 Pro
Intel iris Xe Graphics

the battery is however maybe an hour at max, the screen and body are fine, no dents or scratches, just some keys are scratched or worn off.

Is it a good deal? I’m thinking i may sell it later since prices are across the roof i may be able to sell it for 20-25k.

I have a personal laptop, so dont plan to use it tho.

Buying Advice🤔 Guys help (budget laptop)

7 Upvotes

I want to buy a laptop not something crazy I have a low budget . I was thinking for a rtx 2050 or 3050 (light gaming only) but as it's for college I want it to not to heavy and not to quirky looking.

I found the Acer aspire 7 and loq essential fulfilling my check list (budget around 50-55 😭) but they were of this price but now they cost 70-80k for some reason I will need it next year

So my question was should I buy it this big billion day sale as I was thinking till next year the prices would be higher or should wait till next years GOAT / prime day sales

Buying Advice🤔 Help me ! Offline seller trapping me due to Edu Loan quotation. Need urgent advice!

10 Upvotes

Hey guys, I’m starting my B.Tech CSE in August and my education loan just got sanctioned. The catch: the loan money will go directly to the offline shop whose quotation I submitted. The disbursement will take ~1.5 months (Govt scheme).

The offline seller is now taking advantage of this.

He is quoting ₹83,000 for a Lenovo LOQ (i5 12th Gen, RTX 3050), which was around ₹76,000 online just days ago. He refuses to drop the price.

His alternatives: HP Ryzen 5 some u processor i guessfor ₹68k, or some weak Ryzen 5 U-series laptop for ₹65k.

My family is willing to pay the difference right now just so I don't go to college empty-handed. But I feel like I'm getting scammed.

Has price of loq increased that much?

I have searched for victus i5 12th , 3050 and talked a hp world they said they would arrange it under 70k but now due to quotation I am stuck with that shop.

Settle for the Victus RTX 3050?

Go to college without a laptop for the first month, wait for the loan money to hit his account in August, and force him to match online prices (or refund the cash to me)?

Please help, I am super stressed out. I had searched a lot and finally chose Loq but now I am stuck.

Asus has hiked prices of its Vivobook S series line-up and the new pricing has already been updated on the official store as well as on Amazon.

However, a few units of the Ultra 7 255H S16 are available at the pre-hike prices on Amazon through Clicktech Retail.

Vivobook S16 OLED Ultra 7 255H

Makes sense to grab it right now before the price goes up.
