FAQ

What features should I look for in a laptop for school? + -

When selecting a laptop for school, consider features such as battery life, portability, processing power, storage capacity, and a comfortable keyboard. A lightweight design and long battery life are essential for students who need to carry their laptops around campus.

Is a Chromebook suitable for school use? + -

Chromebooks can be an excellent choice for school use, especially if your tasks primarily involve web-based applications and cloud storage. They are generally affordable, have good battery life, and are easy to use. However, ensure that any specific software requirements for your courses are compatible with Chrome OS.

How much RAM is needed in a school laptop? + -

For most school-related tasks such as word processing, browsing the internet, and streaming videos, 8GB of RAM is generally sufficient. However, if you plan to run more demanding applications or multitask heavily, you might want to consider 16GB of RAM.

Should I choose a laptop with SSD or HDD for school? + -

An SSD (Solid State Drive) is recommended for school laptops because it offers faster boot times and quicker data access compared to an HDD (Hard Disk Drive). This can significantly improve overall performance and make your computing experience smoother.

A screen size between 13 to 15 inches is generally ideal for student laptops. This size range offers a good balance between portability and usability, providing enough screen real estate for productivity without being too cumbersome to carry around.
