Student laptops

Laptops in the store

Looking for a new student laptop? It's important to take the screen size and the processor into account. If you often take your laptop with you to lectures, a compact size is nice. Don't want to miss a single detail on your screen and do you often work in one location? A larger size suits you better. The processor you need depends on your degree. For Windows laptops, we recommend at least an Intel Core i5 or AMD Ryzen 5 processor. For MacBook models, we recommend at least an Apple M2 chip. If you're a creative or technical-degree student and you use a lot of demanding software, we recommend a more powerful processor. Do you work in the cloud often or write a lot of reports? A Chromebook suits you.

The MacBook Air with Apple M3 or Apple M2 is suitable for writing reports, analyzing data, and doing online research. Are you a creative or technical student?

Do a lot of graphic edits and want to see every detail? Get a 15 to 16-inch size.

Which Chromebook is suitable for my studies?

If you're mainly going to write reports, a Chromebook with a Celeron processor is enough. If you want to edit images and make graphic edits, you need an Intel Core i5 or AMD Ryzen 5 processor. Want to work in a lot of apps at once? Choose more RAM.

What size laptop do I need?

If you often work in the train or take your laptop to college, a smaller laptop is the best choice for you. Choose a laptop with a 14-inch screen at most. Do you take your laptop with you every now and then? Choose a 15 or 16-inch laptop. If you're going to use your laptop mainly in one location, go for a 17 or 18-inch laptop.

If you want to work with AI during your study, it's important your laptop has enough power for these tasks. You need a lot of TOPS (trillions of operations per second) for that.
