Ranking the best netbooks in 2022

netbook - a small gadget, in its design and technical characteristics is not inferior to a laptop. About what it is needed for, and how to choose the right device, we will describe in detail below. The wagon is presented with a rating of high-quality netbook models in 2022.

General idea of ​​the gadget: why you should buy a netbook

The mini-laptop got its name because of its purpose - surfing the net. The display dimensions of this device, on average, vary between 10-13.3 inches. The most common option is a netbook screen with a maximum size, since the gadget allows you to use a good resolution.

The screen of the gadget can be matte or glossy. The matte screen does not reflect when sunlight hits the display and does not leave fingerprints. Therefore, most people prefer models with such a screen.

Netbooks are not designed to work indoors, so the battery power, each manufacturer, is trying to make the maximum capacity. Depending on the price category of the model, the battery life of the gadget, with a full load, varies between 2.5-8 hours.

OP: 1-8 GB.

The average volume of a hard disk or HDD is from 250 to 500 GB. New products include netbooks with a solid state drive (SSD). However, the performance of such devices is still "lame". This is expressed by low-speed response and small volume (up to 30 GB).

None of the gadget models are equipped with a built-in CD-ROM.

Peripherals are all standard, as for laptops. As for the webcam, microphone and speakers, in terms of technical parameters they are much weaker than those equipped with laptops.However, you can connect additional resources, if necessary.

• Electronic book;
• Function "mobile phone";
• Work with documents, e-mail;
• An objective assessment of the quality of a picture or video in comparison with a digital camera;

2. Every year, the functionality of gadgets improves, as does their design;
3. The more expensive the device, the better its technical characteristics;
4. The main advantage of netbooks is compactness;
5. Suitable for the implementation of various ideas and work with documents.

Rating of the best netbooks under 15,000 rubles

The review is provided with netbook models at an affordable price from Chinese manufacturers Irbis and DEXP. Both companies specialize in producing netbooks for work and study, although some models run primitive games. The main difference between the product range of both companies is the cost. This fact is explained by the fact that the case of netbooks from "Irbis" is mostly made of plastic, and from "DEXP" - metal.

DIGMA EVE 10

This netbook continues the EVE 10 line, which has been out for a long time and almost does not change in design, but it gets better in terms of “stuffing”. The body of the device is made of black plastic. The lid has the company logo in white.

The keyboard of the model as a whole is typical for laptops and has soft, almost silent, keys. Button layout is standard. The only feature that sets this netbook's keyboard apart from the rest is the location of the start key, which is located in the row of main keys, and not separately. It is located at the top (in the right corner). Below the keyboard module is an unmarked touchpad, and above it there are 2 holes for microphones and 3 LEDs.

The display of the device has a 10.1-inch diagonal. The screen is made using IPS technology. The resolution is 1280x800 pixels. The color saturation of the display is quite good, so it is very convenient to play and watch videos on it, but the brightness is without much reserve. It is enough for comfortable work indoors, but when exposed to direct sunlight, the content becomes difficult to read.

The device is equipped with Intel's Celeron N3450 chip clocked at 1.1 GHz, which itself, if necessary, accelerates to 2.2 GHz. The chipset contains a 4-core processor with an integrated HD Graphics 500 graphics card from the same Intel. The netbook has 3GB of RAM running at 1059 MHz. These indicators are enough to play simple projects, for example, quests.

The battery, when compared with the predecessors of this line, has significantly decreased, however, on the other hand, the “stuffing” has become much more energy efficient.The battery capacity is 2500 mAh. A 100% battery charge is enough to watch movies for 2 hours and 50 minutes, taking into account the background work on the Internet. Full charge recovery time is 1 hour 40 minutes.

Netbook Selection Criteria

Having decided to buy a gadget, you should decide for yourself what is more important in a netbook. The most important criterion is the RAM indicator. Most buyers first of all pay attention to this. The higher the indicator, the better the device will work.

The second most important thing in netbooks is battery capacity. How much the device can work without recharging depends on its further purpose. That is, if the power is enough for 7-8 hours, then the device can accompany the user on various trips.Up to 5 hours is enough time for the learning process, to write down something important, as well as for a working environment with documents.

The combination of plenty of storage and a powerful battery is ideal for travellers, the working class, students and even gamers, although it is not considered as a gaming device. Netbooks are often used in the family circle to show children cartoons or interesting videos.

How to choose a netbook for games?

Unfortunately, gaming netbooks will cost the user too much. The starting price starts from 120,000 rubles. Every gamer knows that the main criteria are:

• iron power;
• Huge amount of memory;
• Image color rendering;
• Quick response of the device to commands given by the player;
• Simultaneous coordinated work of the installed program for the game with the Network;
• It is important that the netbook does not heat up during games.

But, if we are talking about DotA, then the netbook is completely unsuitable for this game. The reasons:

• You need a very smart device, because in a matter of seconds, the player can use more than 3 combined buttons, and not every netbook can cope with such a task;
• During the game, there is a conversation, so the speakers and microphone should work at a height, although you can connect headphones, and this is an additional load on the device;
• In such large-scale games, the more the overall picture of the game is visible, the better.To do this, they often zoom in and out of the general plan and look at other areas of the map, while not stopping playing;
• The graphics of such a game looks very cool, but its installation also weighs accordingly, and not every laptop can cope with such a task, and there are many other nuances.

Therefore, as a gaming machine, a netbook is not suitable. Even if you find the right unit according to the parameters, then throwing away a lot of money is not worth it. For any professional, a stationary powerful computer is the best option to enjoy the game.

How to choose a manufacturer?

Each company produces a line of goods according to individual technology, which are reflected in the material of the product, technical tasks, design and cost, respectively.

Models whose body is made of plastic are considered the simplest and, as a rule, they are inexpensive in price. Almost all Chinese brands have such a structure, which explains their popularity and short service life.
