The Asus VivoBook 14 we are recommending here is powered by the AMD Ryzen 5 3500U processor paired with 8GB RAM and an ultra fast 512GB NVMe drive. The laptop is built on the philosophy of being a thin and light machine, without costing you an arm and a leg. The display on this machine is a matte 1920x1080 IPS panel. You also get Windows 10 Home and a subscription to Microsoft Office 365 bundled with the laptop. The Asus VivoBook 14 has gone through several iterations over the years and every unit we’ve reviewed, has gotten a fairly good rating from us. The reason for this is the generous connectivity options, good performance that meets your everyday needs and of course, a display that’s great to watch content one. With the Ryzen 5 3500U processor on board, users can definitely expect this particular machine to be no exception.

The HP 15 isn’t powered by an Intel processor, but instead uses a chip by Team Red. The HP 15 is powered by a Ryzen 5 3200U processor, a chip adequately powerful to be found in laptops for everyday use, even if its heavy use. This dual core processor chugs at 2.6GHz and can go up to 3.5Ghz when hit with a load. Other than that, you’ll find 4GB of DDR4 memory on this machine, alongside a 1TB HDD. One advantage of going with an AMD based system is that their onboard Vega graphics (this one has Vega 3) allows it to run some creative applications, although gaming is definitely not an option.

If you’d like to step your performance game up a notch, you can consider the HP 15s which is powered by the AMD Ryzen 5 3500U processor. This is a quad-core processor with a base clock of 2.1GHz and a boost of 3.7GHz. In addition, the onboard graphics are the Vega 8 graphics, meaning that there’s potential for running light creative loads or even doing some very light gaming at low settings, perhaps at 720p. All this is also made possible thanks to 8GB of DDR4 memory onboard alongside a 512GB SSD for fast boot and load times.

Designed specifically for students, the Asus VivoBook Ultra K14 is a solid choice for those who need a laptop under Rs 50,000.

The good thing however is that the laptop does offer a 512GB NVMe drive for storage, and also comes with a fingerprint sensor embedded into the trackpad.
