shud i go for 17'' laptop if it is almost the same price as 15''.?

Question

i need it for movies and music....take it out once in 5 days or so...the size is worryin me

Answer 1

It's up to you- larger LCD screen means it's heavier, burns the battery faster, and might need a bigger bag/case. Also, it's more subject to breaking if it gets dropped (extra screen weight)

But things definitely look better on 17" screens, at least to me- if you don't travel with it much and primarily keep it plugged in, the larger size is a good thing.

Answer 2

The 17" is probably a wide screen and therefore you will usually get a slightly larger keybord aswell but if its for movies/music playing the larger screen is a definate asset ( thats why it is a wide screen for movies) but it will be heavier and the screen size is only a small part of the computer make sure the rest od the system meets your needs or you will be very sorry with either screen.

Answer 3

if the 17" screen is better for you than the 15" and it's practically the same price then the 17" is something I would recommend. However, the use of the laptop should be greater than the cost to be worth it.

Answer 4

You definitely should if size and weight is not an issue to you. A bigger screen means more space for you to manage your programs, and a bigger screen for watching movies.

Answer 5

If you travel at all, this could become very cumbersome to use on a plane. Not to mention the extra added weight. If you are using it at home, you should not have size issues (*enter comment here*)

Answer 6

17" laptops are the best, especially for watching music, playing games, and listening to music.

Answer 7

Yes - bigger is always better, especially if you intend to watch movies.
