Need feedback, info about Galaxy Book

[TimonN]

Hello All,

I want to purchase laptop following basic config.

Core i5

16GB RAM

512GB SSD

14-15" FHD Screen

I am checking Galaxy Book 2 and some other laptops from HP, Dell, Asus.

If anyone here is using Galaxy Book laptops, can you share your feedback ?

Also can we upgrade RAM on Book 2 8GB variant ? 

Does Book 2 come with MS Office lifetime license ?

What are charges for getting additional warranty for Galaxy Book ?

What are your suggestions? My budget is upto ₹ 60000

Looking forward to your comments.

Best Regards

What are you intending to use this laptop for?
Gaming, editing, coding or normal word, excel, movies and OTT?

[TimonN]

Main use for Coding - Android and then normal personal usage - web browsing, videos, youtube, ott

Then Core i5 11th gen, 12th gen and 16GB ram is enough since AVD utilize a lot of resources (if you are planning to use AVD) for you (which you are also looking for). Go with any laptop from dell or HP or lenevo or msi with this specification in your budget. No need to spend money on Galaxy book.

Getting Galaxy Book 2 - i5, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD for effective price of 52K.

Not getting similar spec in Dell, HP in same price.

Lenovo I had twice very bad experience. MSI i am not sure about brand, service in India.

Acer Aspire and HP Victus also have good models below 60k but they are bulky.

Getting good deal on HP ENVY which is also Intel Evo certified.

Overall value wise Galaxy Book 2 looks good deal.

If you know , please shaee links of good deals from HP , Dell, Asus

Bro if you want to take good deals either check croma or wait for sale in amazon or flipkart. Flipkart is also good in terms of laptop.

[TimonN]
