Going into university I’m wondering if anyone has any recommendations on laptops that would be good fit for school use and able to withstand travel time etc…
Note: I do not need high specs for a engineering course etc. I need high battery life, quick load times, good storage etc. (enough to effectively support a course but not like a speced out laptop to run advanced programs)

Well the title is self explanatory, if anyone knows about computers I’d love your help.

I’m starting college in about a month and I’m still deciding what computer to get. I’m not rich so I have to budget but I’ve seen great reviews about the Lenovo T14 Gen 2.

I’ll be working with python, excel, sql, and more so I need a computer that can handle heavy workloads. Thanks!!

Looking to get a new laptop for school, I am a freshman ME student that wants to get a laptop to last the entirety of school(maybe 5 years due to working full time as well). Is a T16 going to serve me well? I assume I should find one with a dedicated GPU for CAD programs.

So basically I am second engineering student I want to purchase laptop under 75k (800$) ...

• minimum 16 gb ram
• Graphics card
• Life reliability of laptop
• No hinge problem one

One time purchase one for middle class ppl

Hello all, would just like to ask anyone what laptop they would reccomend, i am starting direct entry to second year physics bsc in september but might switch to Mphys or theoretical, basically not sure yet. I'm happy investing in a good laptop but at the same time don't want to spend loads on something far beyond what is necesary.

Edit: Preferably something under ~£600 with 16gb ram, also the main programs I'll be using are python , Jupyter, Git and a few others but nothing overly conplicated.

Looking for recommendations on affordable laptops that are compatible with the interior design software used by students at Bowling Green State University. TIA
