    Budget 30-40k Samsung S23FE or A55

    M55/F55 is also good option at around 25k. They have the snapdragon 7 gen 1. Is this not an old chipset in mid 2024?

    Laptops WiFi 5 M.2 card compatible with Intel i3 5005U

    Dead card. If there is a bios whitelist the laptop would refuse to boot with an error (unsupported device or something like that). There are bios mods/hacks to circumvent this. Google your laptop. YMMV.
