Best Laptop Choices For College And University Students In 2019

While smartphones seem inseparable to people these days, a laptop is a must-have item for college students. Also, it may be among the most significant investments to make, after tuition, board, and accommodation.

And while you can now get a laptop for just Rs 13,800 to Rs 27,000, spending a bit more can get you a more productive machine that lasts longer and performs better. And the following are the best laptops for university, college, and even high school students.

Dell XPS 13

Are you a Windows fan? Do you want a balance of price, power, and portability? Then the XPS 13 is the right choice for you. This laptop is incomparably slim, attractive, and filled with a ton of configuration options. And while some previous version of this laptop had a terribly positioned webcam, the 2019 version will not have this drawback.

Apple MacBook Air (2017)

Last year, Apple introduced a new version of its MacBook Air, a popular choice among students. There are several nice upgrades in this model, including USB-C ports, Touch ID, and a Retina display. However, many people don’t like its new “Butterfly” keyboard. So if you want the traditional keyboard, the 2017 MacBook Air is more suitable and also cheaper choice.

Right now, all laptops can handle basic tasks, but if you can get yourself a machine which can double as a gaming system for a price lower than the MacBook Air and Yoga C930, why not?

If gaming is your top priority when looking for a laptop, the Razer Blade Stealth is what you need, for a higher price than the Nitro 5 though.

The laptop houses the Core i7 CPU, featuring 16GB of RAM along with 256GB SSD. Plus, its body is 100 percent metal.
