The 5 Best Laptops Under $600 - 2023

Image
 1. Lenovo IdeaPad Flex 5 14  If you find Chrome OS limiting or prefer working on Windows, get the Lenovo IdeaPad Flex 5 14 (2020) instead. It sports a 14-inch display that looks sharp and provides just enough room for some light multitasking. It isn't a particularly bright screen; it's bright enough for most indoor settings but not well-lit environments or outdoors in broad daylight. You get a spacious and comfortable keyboard, a touchpad with decent tracking, and a wide port selection. For under $400, you can get an AMD Ryzen 3 4300U model with 4GB of memory and 128GB of storage.  The CPU is powerful enough to handle light productivity tasks like text processing and web browsing; however, 4GB of memory is very limiting and will likely cause slowdowns when multitasking, and unfortunately, 8GB models are significantly more expensive.   Processor: AMD Ryzen 3 4300U Quad Core Processor. Display: 14.0" FHD IPS Touch Display, Operating system: Windows...

Top 5 Best Cameras under 300 in 2023

  1. Sony DSCWX350 18 MP Digital Camera Travelzoom cameras (compact cameras with upwards of an 18x zoom range) are hot property in the camera world, and the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-WX350’s USP is that it’s the world’s smallest and lightest camera to pack a 20x zoom lens. This gets Sony’s Optical SteadyShot image stabilisation system to compensate for camera shake in low light or when zooming in to the max.  Sony has also equipped the DSC-WX350 with a back-illuminated 18.2MP Exmor R sensor, promising plenty of detail in low light and a maximum standard sensitivity of ISO3200 (expandable to ISO12800). The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-WX350’s claim of being the smallest camera to sport a 20x zoom range is a nice coup for the marketing men, but in reality the size reduction is barely noticeable over the current crop of travelzoom compacts, so this alone shouldn’t sway you into parting with your cash. 20x Optical/40x Clear Image Zoom G Lens Keep your subject in focus with Lock-On AF Simple conn...
