These are which are available right now to buy, There are laptop Launches either at the start of the year Q1, or nearing the end of year Q3-Q4.
I would recommend to deeply research laptops before buying one, Go watch youtube reviews on them etc. and depending on your usage, look for battery Whr or GPU TGP, again depends on one’s usage. there are different configurations for almost each country.
The best brands in these categories are Asus, Acer, MSI , Lenovo and HP is good but there isnt much there.
50,000 Laptops-
Almost all of these have different Laptops configurations in different budget ranges,
I will try to include all.
Most of these are available from flipkart (Usually) ,Because amazon either dont have these in stock or are being sold at a higher price. Due to most being Flipkart exclusives.
Amazon does guarantees the delivery though,cant say the same for flipkart sadly

512 GB SSD
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 with 6GB VRAM
FA506QM-HN008W (15.6 Inch with 144Hz Display, Graphite Black, 2.30 Kg)
3060 is a better card in Raw performance than 4050 because it being a higher class card (60), but 40 series has DLSS 3 with Frame Gen. which boosts fps drastically in some games but there is some input lag too,so its less recommended in Esports titles.
But, 4050 will slightly beat 3060 at lower TGPs (Under 100W) , so there’s that.
ASUS TUF Gaming F17 (2022)
This includes an
Intel Core i5 12th Gen 12500H

The Best,
And My personal Favourite,
Acer Nitro 5

This Beast includes an,
Intel Core i7 12th Gen 12650H

Obviously a MUX Switch,
The only downsides this laptop has is a single stick of DDR4 Memory and a 57.5 Whr Battery.
Nothing else.
