An entry-level laptop typically sets you back by Rs 25,000 or so, but you’d be wrong. A laptop like this would be for browsing the internet, reading articles, and streaming videos. Most schools and colleges are hosting online lectures and a laptop like this can come handy. That’s where the Avita Cosmos comes in. Priced at Rs. 17,999*, it is one of the most affordable laptops right now. It also a 2-in-1 form factor laptop, which brings in versatility as well as mobility.
Entry-level laptops can be bulky, but not the Avita Cosmos. It weighs 1.3kg and is just 29mm thick. The thin and lightweight design makes it ideal for children, as they can easily carry the laptop without it being a burden. The 2-in-1 form factor is also a rare feature at this price. You can detach the keyboard when needed and use the laptop as a full-fledged tablet. It offers much more flexibility as you can comfortably lie down on the sofa or bed while reading articles, watching videos, and surfing the internet.
The detachable keyboard is also impressive. Its thin design doesn’t add bulk, and it also has large keys so typing is a comfortable experience. You can use keyboard shortcuts to quickly save or edit articles, images and even switch between apps. You’ll be also surprised to know that the keyboard comes with an inbuilt trackpad. It is decently sized, and it makes scrolling through pages and images easy.
One of the features which make the Avita Cosmos stand out, is its full HD screen. In fact, most of the entry-level laptops don’t come with a full HD screen these days. Having a full HD screen enhances the content viewing experience. You can watch YouTube, Netflix and Amazon Prime videos with much better details, in comparison. The FHD screen will also render crisp and clear text, so you can read social media updates, web articles, messages, e-books and emails without straining your eyes.
The display uses a 10-point IPS touch panel. Avita says it renders accurate colours and offers a viewing angle of up to 178 degrees. The touch screen makes navigation straightforward, and there is also support for Windows 10 Touch Gestures. This means you can tap the screen with 4-fingers to open the Action Centre, swipe three fingers left or right to switch between apps and even pinch with two fingers to zoom into images, zoom through web pages and articles.
The Avita Cosmos runs the Intel Celeron N4020 CPU. The entry-level chip can power Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, Google Chrome and other basic apps. It also has enough power to run media players and chat applications. The laptop comes with 4GB of LPDDR4, which is also great at this price point. It will let you run a couple of apps side-by-side so you can take notes while watching video tutorials or browsing the internet.
The laptop also comes with Intel’s UHD Graphics 6000 solution. It makes full HD video streaming and overall web browsing experience a lot smoother. These graphics solutions will also let you play some basic games. The laptop comes with 64GB in-built storage, and there is also an SD card slot for storage expansion.
Most entry-level laptops still run on Windows 10 S Mode, a toned-down version of Windows 10. However, this isn’t the case with the Avita Cosmos. It runs the full-fledged version of Windows 10 Home, so you don’t miss out on any features.
The Avita Cosmos is strong on the connectivity front. It has Wi-Fi 802.11ac for super-fast wireless internet connectivity. The laptop also has Bluetooth 4.0 for connecting wireless accessories such as a wireless mouse or Bluetooth earphones. There is also no shortage of ports despite its slim size. It comes with a USB 3.0 port for connecting pen drives and hard drives.
The laptop also has a mini-HDMI port for connecting the device to a projector, TV or a large monitor. Additionally, it also comes with a 2MP front and rear camera. You can use the rear camera to scan and convert documents into PDF, while the front camera is great for video calls and attending online lectures. The laptop also promises up to 8 hours of battery life under moderate usage.
Avita might be a new laptop brand, but it can take on established laptops brands. The Cosmos excels at offering more than entry-level features at an affordable price. It also comes with a 2-year warranty, so the brand has got you covered if anything goes wrong.
