After announcing the Alpha laptop series some time back, Micromax has launched the first laptop in the alpha series – Micromax Alpha LI351, for a consumer-friendly price of INR 26,990. The alpha series is targeted for high-end power users. As such, the Alpha LI351 comes packed with high-end processor and other power-packed features.
Featuring a powerful Intel Core i3 (5th Gen) processor, the laptop sports 6GB RAM and comes pre-loaded with the latest Windows 10 (64-bit). The Alpha LI351 offers 500GB of internal storage with 3MB Cache and 8X speed CD/DVD writer. The display is 15.6 inches, featuring 1366×768 pixels. The LI351 features Intel HD Graphics 5500 Graphics. When it comes to battery, it packs a decent 4 cell battery providing up to 4.7 hrs of back up power. The laptop also features 2 USB 3.0 ports, a HDMI port, a microphone jack and a headphone jack. It’s available on flipkart and comes with one year onsite warranty.
The Intel Core i3 Processor allows users to enjoy smooth multimedia and multitasking experience. This line of processors is extremely power efficient, so it’s unlikely that you will run into heating issues. The Alpha LI351 is also lightweight, weighing just about 2 kg. What’s more – it comes with Windows 10. As they say, the hardware must be complemented by software. With 6GB RAM, you can enjoy enhanced UI, fast boot up, efficient web browsing and seamless multi-tasking. Windows 10 is fast and doesn’t come with bloated software. At INR 26,990, the Alpha LI351 is competitively priced and comes with specs that match premium priced laptops.
