Basic Tips for Buying a Used Laptop

If the need is urgent, there is an alternative. Stock trading online and computer stores usually offer old computers, including laptops, with a variety of conditions and specifications. If you are observant, you'll get a quality laptop at bargain prices.

Here are some basic tips to buy used laptop:

Asked warranty
Lots of reasons people sell laptops recently purchased, ranging from financial reasons, bored, or not as needed. Ask clarity warranty. Is the warranty the store or an authorized warranty? Also check the warranty card. I suggest you should buy a laptop with the remaining warranty period of at least 3 months.

Check the screen
One of the most expensive component in a laptop is the LCD screen. Check carefully to see if there are defects in the purchased laptop screen. Rapid manner, change the wallpaper to a plain black color and look for the colored dots than black.

Physical checks and functions
Check the physical condition to get an idea of what kind of laptop owners previous treatment. Ask directly if you suspect that the laptop never dropped or bumped. Undo the intention to buy if you are unsure. On some laptops like the Apple MacBook and Lenovo ThinkPad, there is software to find out how many cycles the battery or how many times the laptop battery has been charging. The average laptop battery is designed to survive up to 1000 times charge.

If no such software, try turning on the laptop without being connected to the charger and run multiple applications. Notice the battery indicator. If less drastic, less vibrant and the possibility of battery you have to buy a new battery that cost is quite high.

Price expectations
What is a reasonable price? If the model wants to purchase a used laptop is still sold in the market, the price difference ranges between 20-30 percent, depending on condition, brand, completeness, and the warranty period.

Though the price of a replacement laptop model (with a higher specification) are usually sold at the same price range. Buying a used laptop do require extra care and patience. Take your passion if you look at things that seemed priced too cheap.
