The best manufacturers of inexpensive laptops: budget up to 15,000 rubles.

Few companies are ready to offer products costing up to 15,000 rubles, traditionally including Asian manufacturers. The low price is due to two factors - either the assembly of products at third-party factories, or the use of low-quality components.

Lenovo

The company was founded in 1984 in China. It has more than 100 different models with monitor diagonals from 10.1″ to 17.3″. This is one of the few companies offering such large sizes. It uses mainly Intel Celeron, Core i3 and Pentium microprocessors. There are offers for both study and work, as well as for games.
