Entertainment

The power of the fine arts to rejuvenate the body and mind is unquestioned. And it's no surprise that most of us like to unwind with music, a movie, or a TV show once the day is done. An entertainment laptop is ideal for giving yourself this invaluable 'me time'. Laptops designed for entertainment offer large, FHD screens, ample storage space, long battery life, and enough hardware to handle the highest resolution of content. We wouldn't be exaggerating if we were to say that entertainment laptops have become the preferred devices for consuming content, from streaming cookery shows in the kitchen to watching IPL in bed. However, before you splurge money on one, there are two main factors to bear in mind – video and audio. The latest entertainment laptops offer large (up to 15.6-inch) LED displays with FHD (1920 x 1080p) or WQHD (2560 x 1440p) resolution. Bright, crisp visuals and rich colours no matter the source of the content is a hallmark of a good entertainment laptop. In addition, avid gamers can also expect a dedicated graphics card that allows them to run the latest AAA titles without any jerks. Ideally, an entertainment laptop worth its salt should have built-in stereo speakers with a dedicated sound enhancing technology. For example, most entertainment laptops feature Dolby Atmos, Waves Maxx Audio Pro, or Bang and Olufsen Audio (depending on the manufacturer) to deliver a theatre-like audio experience. Lastly, before committing to a device, you must also check its battery capacity, the SSD/HDD capacity, and upgrade options.
