Budget Powerhouse: If you’re looking for a good price-to-performance ratio, look to the 2022 Acer Aspire 5. With an AMD Ryzen processor, sufficient RAM to juggle several tasks and outstanding battery life, this device will keep students going through anything. Look out for the best deals, certainly at $500, during those special back-to-school sales or with student discounts.
Chromebook Champion: Students looking for affordability and long battery life, find these Chromebooks fantastic. ASUS Chromebook Spin 713 is dope, it’s a convertible Chromebook with a touchscreen display, and it has a beefy battery that will hang in there all school day long. Deals can be found in the $300 to $400 range. There are other affordable Chromebook options available in the Indian market which even go as low as 30,000Rs or under, thus can be a good deal for students.
Apple Magic for Students: If you’re a die-hard Apple fan, there’s still much to love in the Apple MacBook Air (M1, 2020) if you can get a good student discount through Apple Education Pricing. With this powerhouse, you’ll get great performance, a beautiful display, and a very long battery life. Look for sales that bring the price down to about $800-$900. You can even save up and buy the newest Apple laptop like the Apple M4 MacBook Pro, which will be released soon by the end of 2024.
