I saw a Nigerian registered nurse talking about how her husband sponsored her Masterโs in Nursing in the UK.
For two years, this man was converting naira to pounds without complaining. He even travelled from Nigeria to the UK to help his wife take care of the kids while she was on clinical placement.
Today, sheโs a registered nurse and proudly giving her husband his flowers.
Omo many marriages are actually thriving. Na the bad ones dey get the most PR.
Your laptop can have 16GB RAM, Core i7 and still be a very bad purchase.
Before buying a laptop, take not of these 10 things:
1.๐นGo for SSD instead of HDD.
SSD makes the laptop significantly faster when booting, opening apps and transferring files. It also doesn't make the spinning noise HDDs make.
You can check by pressing Ctrl + Shift + Esc โ then Performance โ then Disk.
2.๐นHaving a high RAM isn't enough.
A laptop with 16GB RAM and a weak or old processor can still perform poorly. So it's important to check the processor.
3.๐น Focus more on the generation of the processor rather than just โCore i5โ or โCore i7.โ
Never assume an i7 is automatically better than an i5. A newer-generation i5 can outperform an older-generation i7, depending on the specific processors.
When you check the model number for most Intel Core processors, the number immediately after the hyphen tells you the generation.
For example:
i7-6500U = 6th Gen
i5-8250U = 8th Gen
i7-1165G7 = 11th Gen
i5-1235U = 12th Gen
i7-13700H = 13th Gen
4.๐นDon't ignore battery health, especially when buying a used laptop.
To check on a Windows laptop, open Command Prompt and type: powercfg /batteryreport
This will generate a battery report showing the design capacity and full charge capacity. The bigger the gap, the more the battery has degraded.
5.๐นCheck the screen quality, not just the size.
A 15.6-inch screen isn't automatically better than a 14-inch one. To confirm, go to Settings โ System โ Display โ Advanced display to check the resolution and refresh rate.
6.๐นCheck whether the RAM and SSD can be upgraded.
Some newer laptops have their RAM already soldered, meaning you may not be able to increase it later.
7.๐นCheck the ports you need.
USB-A, USB-C, HDMI, SD card slot, headphone jack and other ports can make a difference depending on what you use the laptop for.
8.๐นFor a used laptop, test everything.
Don't just open the laptop, see that it boots.
Test the keyboard, trackpad, speakers, microphone, webcam, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, charging port, USB ports, HDMI, hinges and screen.
Open a document and test every key. Play audio through the speakers. Connect to Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. Plug in a USB device and test the charger.
9.๐นBuy according to your needs.
For browsing, Microsoft Office, online classes and basic work, you don't necessarily need a high-end laptop.
For programming, heavy multitasking or professional software, you need a strong processor and sufficient RAM.
For video editing, 3D work and serious graphics work, you have to pay attention to the GPU, processor, RAM and display.
For gaming, don't focus on RAM alone. The dedicated GPU, processor, cooling system and display matter a lot.
Stay informed
And
Stay sharp! ๐ช

Functional depression is real. You work, joke around, you show kindness, take care of people around you. But mentally you're drowning in your own thoughts but still smiling and nobody knows it
