The Acer Aspire Lite 15 handles browsing, documents and video comfortably at around ₹32,000. Its 250-nit screen is dim for outdoor or bright-room use, and 8 GB of RAM is limiting — though a spare SODIMM slot makes memory the cheap upgrade worth making.

Product overview
This is the price band where compromises are unavoidable, and it is worth knowing which ones you are accepting. The Ryzen 5 5500U is a capable six-core chip for documents, browsing and video calls, but the 250-nit display is dim enough to struggle near a window, and 8 GB of RAM will feel tight with many browser tabs open alongside other applications. The RAM is upgradeable via a single SODIMM slot, which is the single most worthwhile upgrade on a machine like this.
