Displays

Screen Size

With plenty of screen size options available, you can select a size that suits your requirements. With options ranging from compact 11 inch laptops, to the popular and portable 14 inch laptop and 15 inch laptop sizes. With larger screen sizes available too, including 16 inch and 17 inch laptop models, that are ideal for gaming or watching media.

Screen Resolution

As well as display size, you'll also want to consider screen resolution when purchasing your new laptop. With Full HD options right up to 4K displays in the range, you can enjoy the latest films and TV in stunning quality. If you prefer to interact with your computer just like a tablet, our touchscreen laptops in our 2-in-1 Laptops range have options to suit you.

Panel Type and Screen Features

The type of work your laptop will support you with will dictate what screen features and panel type you'll need. For those working in a professional post production environment, a laptop with a colour critical display will make for an indispensable tool, while most will find an IPS display more than adequate, given the fact it often boasts fast response times, wider viewing angles and better colour contrasts than the majority of VA and TN panels. If your laptop is more for play than work, then an excellent gaming choice will be a high refresh rate display laptop that is capable of delivering a smoother movement across frames.

Processors

Choosing the right processor for your machine is also an important factor, to ensure that you have enough processing power to perform and complete tasks as fast as possible. Budget laptops will often feature slower Intel Core i3 processors, which are perfectly fine for browsing the internet, sending emails or watching the latest series on Netflix. Intel Core i5 Laptops are a great middle range option that can handle all of the above plus some basic photo and video editing. For something more powerful, an Intel Core i7 or i9 gives you a lot of processing power for your money. Enabling you to utilise processor heavy applications such as high-end games, advanced photo and video software, as well as 3D modelling and much more.

The best laptop processor will vary depending on your usage and budget, with Intel and AMD leading the way in terms of options. While Intel's Core Processors may be more widely known, laptops with AMD processors such as AMD Ryzen 5, AMD Ryzen 7 and AMD Ryzen 9 often perform just as well as their Intel Core counterparts, making them an equally viable choice when selecting your laptop processor.

RAM

How much RAM your laptop will need will greatly depend on its intended use. Random-access memory is extremely important as it allows a laptop to handle multiple tasks at once. The higher the amount of RAM, the more multitasking you can do. We have laptops with built-in RAM ranging from 4GB up to 64GB.

Storage

Selecting the right storage for your documents, music, photos and software is an important factor when choosing your new machine. Laptop storage will often come in three varieties, the first of which being hard drives or HDD, which offer large storage capacities ideal for those on a budget. SSD options will nearly always outperform a hard disk drive due to the faster technology used. SSDs are also less prone to corruption with no moving parts unlike the traditional HDDs found on older laptops. The final option comes in the form of the eMMC storage or as otherwise known embedded multimediacard. While very similar to SSD storage, eMMC often comes in smaller capacities to provide fast storage on entry-level laptops.

With a wide selection of capacities to choose from, ranging from 16GB all the way up to a whopping 2TB. With so many storage options you'll be sure to find the perfect amount of storage for your new laptop at Box.co.uk.

Operating System

Laptops with Windows operating systems have become an ever-popular choice due to the intuitive designs and familiar interfaces that Microsoft have been known for decades. With both Windows 10 laptops and Windows 10 Pro laptops to choose from, you'll be sure to find a Windows laptop at the perfect price point to suit your budget. 

However, if you prefer to move away from Windows, you may want to consider a Chromebook running Chrome OS or an Apple MacBook running macOS. Alternatively, you can purchase laptops with no operating system pre-installed, allowing you to add your own choice of OS at any given point.

Box.co.uk stocks a selection of the latest Windows 11 laptops for those keen on Windows operating systems, making it an ideal choice for users looking to run the latest Microsoft operating system.

Graphics

The best graphics card for a laptop will again depend on your intended use. We stock a wide range of top branded options including AMD, Intel and Nvidia cards. For those after superior gaming performance an RTX Laptop with an Nvidia GeForce RTX card will far outperform any standard integrated card, ensuring you maximise the best FPS and visuals imaginable. For laptop users utilising professional CAD or CGI software, then an Nvidia Quadro card would make a better selection, with these graphics cards being made for precision rather than speed.

Connectivity

The integrated ports and features are an important factor to consider when purchasing a new or refurbished laptop. HDMI ports allow for quick and easy screen-sharing to TVs and monitors. Making them ideal for working on larger displays when presenting or for relaxing when watching TV through your laptop. USB-C integration can make charging and file transferring an extremely quick process, allowing you to stay powered throughout the day without needing to be hard-wired to a plug for great lengths of time. While LAN connections are a great option while using your laptop at a desk, providing faster and more reliable internet connectivity to speed up downloads and web browsing.

Laptop Warranty

With included warranties, you'll be sure to experience great peace of mind when purchasing a laptop from Box.co.uk, safe in the knowledge that should your laptop need replacing, your warranty will enable you to do so.
