🔧 Introduction:
Ever heard of a laptop made from the parts of three different machines? In metro cities like Delhi and Bengaluru, these creative builds—nicknamed Franken-laptops—are gaining popularity. And now, Ahmedabad is catching on too. Whether you’re a student on a tight budget, a startup founder, or just someone who loves tech, there’s a smarter, cheaper way to own a reliable laptop.

Let’s explore how salvaged tech is reshaping the market—and how iTechezy is leading the way locally.

💡 What Is a Franken-Laptop?

A Franken-laptop is a device built from the usable parts of older or discarded laptops—like a working motherboard from one, a screen from another, and a solid-state drive from a third.

These hybrid builds are:

  • 💰 Super affordable – often under ₹15,000

  • 🌱 Eco-friendly – reduce e-waste

  • 🔧 Performance-customized – focused on what you really need

They’re not just hacks. When built professionally, they’re solid, practical, and surprisingly long-lasting.

📍 Why This Trend Is Growing in Ahmedabad

Ahmedabad has:

  • Thousands of college students

  • Cost-conscious startups and freelancers

  • A growing e-waste issue

That makes it the perfect market for practical solutions like salvaged builds. At iTechezy’s refurbished laptop section, we’ve seen a sharp rise in people asking for affordable systems—not just cheap, but good.
