Searching for the second hand laptop price in Bangladesh under 20000 taka? This guide is for students, parents and small offices who need a working laptop on a very tight budget. The honest short answer: below ৳20,000 the used market mostly offers older 4th to 7th Gen Intel machines with worn batteries and no official Windows 11 support. Megabuy BD does not stock any laptop under ৳20,000 right now. Our cheapest checked used laptops start at ৳26,000 with an 8th Gen Core i5 and an SSD. Below we explain what this budget really buys, the risks, and when stretching a little makes more sense.
Second Hand Laptop Price in Bangladesh Under 20000: The Honest Picture
We would rather tell you the truth than sell you a laptop that disappoints in six months. We have chosen not to list laptops below ৳20,000 at the moment, because most machines that reach this price are too old to recommend for daily study or office work. Their batteries, keyboards and hinges have often been through years of use, and their processors are no longer supported by the latest Windows.
That does not mean every laptop at this price is useless. It means you need to know exactly what you are buying and accept the limits. If you shop in this range elsewhere, use the checks later in this article.
What This Budget Usually Gets You
The very bottom of the market
The cheapest used laptops are typically 3rd to 5th Gen Core i3 or Core i5 models, sometimes with a mechanical hard disk and 4GB RAM. They can open documents, play YouTube and join a basic online class, but they feel slow when several tabs are open. Spare parts for these older models are also becoming harder to find.
Closer to ৳20,000
As you approach ৳20,000, you start to see 6th and 7th Gen Core i5 business laptops such as older Dell Latitude, HP EliteBook and Lenovo ThinkPad models. With an SSD and 8GB RAM, these are fine for typing, browsing, email and online classes. They are dual-core chips in most cases, so heavy multitasking is not their strength.
What you should not expect
- Smooth video editing, design work or Android Studio.
- Modern games, even on low settings.
- All-day battery life from the original battery.
- Official Windows 11 support on the processor.
The Real Risks of a Very Cheap Used Laptop
Windows support has moved on
Microsoft ended regular Windows 10 support in October 2025. Windows 11 officially supports Intel 8th Gen and newer processors, as listed on the official Microsoft list of supported Intel processors. Most laptops under ৳20,000 have 7th Gen or older chips, so they are outside that list. That matters for security updates and for software that will eventually require Windows 11.
Battery and charger
A five to ten year old battery may last under an hour, or swell over time. Budget at least a few thousand taka for a replacement battery, and check that the charger is the correct wattage rather than a weak generic one.
Storage and memory
A hard disk instead of an SSD is the single biggest cause of a "slow laptop". If the unit has a hard disk or only 4GB RAM, add the cost of upgrading both to the real price.
Hidden faults
Very cheap units are more likely to have loose hinges, dead pixels, faulty ports, weak Wi-Fi cards or a BIOS password left by the previous owner. These are easy to miss in a quick shop test and annoying to fix later.

Under ৳20,000 vs ৳26,000: Is the Extra Money Worth It?
| Point | Typical laptop under ৳20,000 | Our ৳26,000 to ৳28,400 picks |
|---|---|---|
| Processor | 3rd to 7th Gen, mostly dual-core | 8th Gen Core i5, quad-core (E7470 is 6th Gen) |
| Windows 11 official support | Usually no | Yes on 8th Gen models |
| Storage | Often hard disk or small SSD | 256GB SSD |
| Multitasking | Slows with many tabs | Comfortable for study and office work |
| Extra costs after buying | Often battery, SSD or RAM | Usually none to start |
The gap is around ৳6,000 to ৳8,000. Once you add a new battery or an SSD to a cheap laptop, the real difference often shrinks to a few thousand taka, and you still end up with an older processor. That is why we point budget buyers to the 8th Gen models above. Our 20,000 to 30,000 Taka price guide goes through each of these models in more detail.
How to Choose a Laptop Under 20,000 Taka
If your budget is fixed and you buy elsewhere, follow these rules:
- Choose a business model. An old Latitude, EliteBook or ThinkPad usually ages better than an old budget consumer laptop.
- Insist on an SSD. Even a 128GB SSD is better than a 500GB hard disk for daily speed.
- Prefer 8GB RAM. 4GB is too little for modern browsers.
- Check the processor generation in Settings, About. 6th or 7th Gen is the minimum we would consider.
- Test the battery by unplugging the charger for 15 minutes while browsing.
- Check for a BIOS password by restarting and opening the BIOS setup screen.
- Test every port, the keyboard, webcam, speakers and Wi-Fi.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I get a good second hand laptop under 20,000 taka in Bangladesh?
You can get a usable one for typing, browsing and online classes, usually a 6th or 7th Gen business laptop with an SSD. It will not be fast for multitasking and is not officially supported for Windows 11. If you can stretch to around ৳26,000, an 8th Gen Core i5 is a much safer long-term buy.
Why does Megabuy BD not sell laptops under 20,000 taka?
Most laptops that reach this price are old enough that battery, hinge and processor problems are common. We prefer to stock models we can confidently recommend for daily study and office use. Our current range starts at ৳26,000 with 8th Gen Core i5 laptops and SSD storage, and stock changes regularly.
Is a 6th Gen Core i5 laptop still worth buying?
For light use, yes, if it has 8GB RAM, an SSD and a healthy battery, and the price is clearly lower than an 8th Gen model. The 6th Gen chip is dual-core and not on the Windows 11 supported list, so treat it as a short-term or second laptop rather than a machine for many years.
Is a used laptop under 20,000 good for students?
It can handle notes, assignments and online classes. Problems usually come from the battery and slow storage, so check both before buying. For students who also want to learn programming or design, an 8th Gen Core i5 laptop with 8GB RAM gives noticeably smoother performance for only a little more money.
