I would like to buy a new laptop soon, but I do not know what to look for. So my current ones I use mainly for:
Internet surfing, especially watching videos
Microsoft Office
Graphics programs (CorelDRAW, Punch! ViaCAD 3D 10 DE)
Watch the DVD
Can someone give me some tips on which criteria should I choose?
DVD drive (in your case), otherwise good graphics card, and memory. But let me advise you directly at a dealer.
Nobody needs advice
There are two points where you can recognize junk.
The screen MUST have at least 1920 x 1080 pixels and thus offer full HD resolution.
The processor MUST be an Intel Core (eg I5). Pentium, Celeron, Atom or AMD is the largest scrap in the mobile sector.
Display size to your taste. Although notebooks with 17 inches are good for working and are okay if they are on your desk and you can sometimes take to the parents, only "mobile" are limited.
Not needed, but usually better.
But only if you buy it somewhere else…
Correctly. ^ - ^
It depends on you save money on used but must pay attention to the components and the condition
