What kind of processor and memory should a laptop have? Which manufacturer and which minimum performance are recommended? It is intended for surfing, for Office and for Netflix.
For these applications you need next to nothing.
4gb Ram - 8gb would be nice
2 Kerner with 1.5 ghz or more
good display (!) and long runtime
That's it!
Two or four core processor, at least 8 gigabytes of RAM, SSD hard drive.
I would advise against a Celeron.
Lenovo, HP (business notebooks) Dell.es are certainly more good brands.Fujitsu-Siemens,
I have had good experiences with HP.
It depends on how demanding the programs are. My old laptop had an Intel Core i3-2370M with 2.40 GHz.
