An Application with AHP – Topsis Hybrid Approach in Laptop Selection
Özet
This study addresses the complex multi-criteria decision-making problem of general-purpose laptop selection, an issue of growing importance due to the surge in remote work and distance education following the COVID-19 pandemic. To help buyers navigate technical specifications and financial constraints, the research implements a hybrid decision-making approach combining the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and the Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS). Based on expert input from three Management Information Systems (MIS) faculty members and product data retrieved from Hepsiburada.com in April 2022, eight evaluation criteria—price, weight, processor, memory speed, RAM, internal memory, screen size, and screen resolution—were weighted using AHP, while eight market alternatives were ranked using TOPSIS. The AHP evaluation revealed that price is the most critical decision criterion, followed by processor performance, RAM, internal memory, memory speed, screen resolution, screen size, and weight. The TOPSIS analysis ranked the Lenovo IdeaPad 3 as the most suitable laptop alternative, followed by the Dell Vostro 3510-F8066 and Asus X515JP-EJ2500, with the HP Pavilion 13-BB0007NT scoring lowest. Ultimately, the integrated AHP-TOPSIS methodology provides an effective, structured framework for consumers to make informed technological investments, although the rankings remain specific to the selected models and criteria.
