There will be devices with just HD+ resolution but will offer more RAM or storage, but we suggest to give FHD resolution priority since it is really makes a difference when using the gadget.

One other choice is 4K resolution, but you will not find a Laptop under 40000 with it since its mostly for gaming or high-end productive Laptop.

Processor ( CPU )

Intel i5 Processor , either 8th or 9th generation is a solid choice in Laptop at this segment. Please note, as highlighted earlier avoid device running on 6th or 7th gen chipset.
