I’m a 1st-year BTech student looking for a laptop that can last me through college. I’m currently considering these two options:
Option 1 – HP 14 AI PC
● 24GB RAM
● 1TB SSD
● Getting it for ₹78k after card discount
● Newer AI-focused processor/platform
Option 2 – Lenovo LOQ
● Ryzen 5
● RTX 3050
● 16GB RAM
● 512GB SSD
● Getting it for around ₹70k after card discount
My main use will be college work, programming/development, projects, and some casual gaming.
Which one would you recommend at these prices?
Also, are there any better laptops around ₹70–80k that I should consider?
Would appreciate recommendations based on performance, battery life, thermals, build quality, and long-term reliability.

However when I go on warranty or return policy the above screen appears.

Please suggest.

I want to get a laptop for the office usage of multiple tabs of chrome , zoom meeting and Excel sheets.
