Laptop Scrap Data

It is a comprehensive collection of technical specifications and pricing information for 1,563 unique laptop models. It can be used to train machine…

The analysis explored which TypeName segments dominate the laptop market and at what price points. Two visualizations were generated: a bar chart showing the top 10 TypeName segments by volume with average price color-coded, and a box plot displaying the full price distribution across those top segments. These charts reveal both the volume leaders and their corresponding price ranges at a glance.

The analysis reveals clear winners for price-to-capacity value. By storage type, SSD Only configurations offer the best value at $2.02 per GB on average. By storage category, Very High capacity configurations (greater than 2TB) deliver the best ratio at just $0.70 per GB — significantly cheaper per gigabyte than smaller capacity options. Two bar charts were generated showing these comparisons visually, making it easy to spot which configurations give you the most storage for your money.

The analysis reveals how weight and screen size relate to laptop prices across major brands. Three interactive scatter plots and correlation charts were generated showing these relationships. Overall, weight has a moderate positive correlation with price (r = 0.39), meaning heavier laptops tend to cost more — likely because they pack more powerful hardware. Screen size has a weaker correlation with price (r = 0.26), suggesting screen size alone is a less reliable predictor of cost.

The analysis reveals laptop brand pricing and market positioning across the dataset, with an overall market average of $1,947. Two visualizations were generated: a bar chart showing average prices by brand with a red dashed line marking the overall average, and a box plot illustrating the price distribution and spread for the top 10 brands — giving a clear picture of which brands occupy premium vs. budget segments.

Yes, all three features — touchscreens, IPS displays, and dedicated GPUs — are associated with meaningful price premiums. The analysis produced comparison charts and data tables showing average prices for laptops with and without each feature, making it easy to see how much extra you'd pay for each upgrade. Whether the premium is 'justified' depends on your use case: dedicated GPUs offer the most tangible performance benefit for gaming and professional work, IPS displays provide better color accuracy and viewing angles, while touchscreens are often bundled with convertible designs that naturally cost more.

All three factors — RAM, SSD, and PPI — push laptop prices upward, but RAM is by far the strongest driver. Three charts and multiple data tables were generated to visualize these relationships clearly.

A full correlation matrix was computed for all 9 key numeric columns (Price, Ram GB, Weight kg, ppi, SSD, Total Storage GB, X res, Y res, and Inches), and two visualizations were generated to highlight the relationships. The heatmap shows pairwise correlations across all features, while the bar chart highlights which specs are most and least correlated with Price specifically.

Using the IQR method, 58 laptops (3.71% of the dataset) were identified as price outliers. The price distribution shows Q1 at $1,496.80, Q3 at $2,227.80, and an IQR of $731.00. The acceptable price range spans from $400.30 (lower bound) to $3,324.30 (upper bound). Any laptop priced above $3,324.30 or below $400.30 is flagged as an outlier. A boxplot visualizing the price distribution and a bar chart of the top 15 most expensive outlier laptops were generated, along with detailed tables of the outlier laptops showing their Company, TypeName, RAM, SSD, CPU, and Price.

The analysis of RAM distribution across 1,560 laptops reveals a right-skewed distribution with a mean of 29.3GB and a median of 24GB. The most common RAM configuration is 16GB (the mode). Three visualizations were generated: a histogram showing the overall RAM distribution with mean and median markers, a bar chart of individual RAM configurations with their counts and percentages, and a pie chart breaking down laptops by RAM tier (Low ≤8GB, Mid 9–16GB, High 17–32GB, Very High 32GB).

The analysis successfully broke down 1,560 laptops by CPU brand and compared key metrics. Apple commands the highest average price premium at $2,046.73, followed closely by AMD at $2,022.03 and Intel at $1,928.35. Two grouped bar charts and data tables were generated showing the full comparison across Price, RAM, PPI, and Dedicated GPU percentage.
