Not everyone can afford a brand new laptop, and there are times when going for a fairly used laptop is the only realistic option you have.

To reduce the risk of making a bad purchase, here are some tips for things you should check before spending your hard-earned cash on a used computer.

Know Your Needs
Before making any sort of purchase, you need to know what you will be using the computer for and buy something that matches your needs. Think about the sort of applications you will need, how portable you need your laptop to be, battery life, RAM and storage requirements.

Inspect the Laptop Body

Check the Screen Condition
The next important step is to make sure the screen is in good working condition. Check for flickering, discolouration, brightness and bad pixels.

Test the Keyboard and Trackpad

Check Wireless Connectivity
Nobody wants a laptop that cannot connect to WiFi, so make sure you can view and connect to WiFi networks without hassle.

Test the Speakers

Be aware of the risk of buying from an individual vs. a retailer
Understand that a retailer will charge more than an individual for the same machine, but may offer you a warranty. You decide which is more important to you.
