1. Lenovo IdeaPad 330
Buy on Flipkart @ Rs 33,999The Ryzen 2500U is comparable to the i5 8250 (give or take 10% performance) but that’s not the only thing that makes this laptop great. We also love the fact that it comes with 8GB RAM and Vega 8, which is a decent GPU. If only there were Windows 10 thrown in there too.

If you consider the 8GB variant, it offers pretty much everything including full HD display, under 2kg weight, 8GB RAM, and Windows 10. The only thing it compromises on is the processor. But seems like a good deal still if you ask us.

You need a laptop with GPU you said? Consider this HP machine. While the 530 might not run GTA 5, it can handle your light gaming needs. You also get Windows 10. The processor, while not as powerful as the Ryzen or i5, isn’t shabby.

Lenovo Ideapad 330
Buy on Flipkart @ Rs 27,990This Lenovo 330 is on top of our list not because we admire Lenovo as a laptop maker, but because this particular model is a great value for money. The new Ryzen series of processors from AMD are promising and the 2200U is no exception. Thanks to its 4 cores, it does better on many benchmarks compared to the 7100u. That’s not all though. The 330 also comes with Windows 10, 4GB RAM, and a full HD display which makes it one of the more attractive propositions under Rs 30,000.

HP 15-bs675TX
We put it on the list because of the GPU, but let’s admit it, even that isn’t too great. You get an i3 and just 4GB RAM instead. The consolation prize is Windows 10. Overpriced.

Our recommendations for choosing the best laptops under Rs 35,000:
Firstly, if gaming is your primary objective for getting a new laptop, we recommend adding Rs 5,000 more to your budget and getting something more powerful. That said, laptops under Rs 35,000 should be able to offer more than adequate power for your daily needs whether you’re a student or an office going professional.
8th gen Core i5 and Ryzen 2500U are the best CPUs in this budget, but you’ll find very limited models having one. Core i3 is the next obvious choice. Try to get an 8th or 7th generation processor at least.
Unless you can get your hands on the 940MX, in terms of graphics card, Vega 8 is the best card under Rs 35,000 that can offer a decent entry-level gaming experience. The M530, 920M and the M430 offer entry-level gaming performance but should be good for designing software.
If you’re a multitasker and tend to have a lot of applications open at one point (or tabs in Chrome) get a machine with 8GB RAM. Newer models come with DDR4 RAM, while older ones still feature DDR3. Needless to say, DDR4 is faster and more efficient. However, the real-life difference might not be that apparent. Also, most of the laptops offer expandable RAM so you can always upgrade at a later point).
14 inch laptops are easy to carry and offer adequate screen estate. However, if you don’t mind going bigger, 15.6-inch displays add to the movie watching experience. Also, 1080p displays are a treat.
Based on your priorities, you can pick on these laptops, since they are the best ones you’ll find under 35k. Happy shopping.
