While smartphones have taken over a lot of the tasks people used to do on PCs previously, there are some things only a laptop can do. For students, laptops are far more important as laptops provide them a bigger screen and a physical keyboard to work on their projects and assignments. At the same time, laptops also serve as the primary entertainment device, as the smartphone is primary being in use for texting, socialising and much more. So, what are the best laptops for students going to school to what are best laptops for college students? Well, we have put together a list of budget laptops that will help you out with just that. These is our comprehensive list of the best laptop for students. Might we add that this list needn't apply exclusively to students but also to those who are buying a laptop for the first time. Such a user may not expect too much from their laptop, in which case the basic specs offered by these laptops should be sufficient for infrequent or moderate use.
Powered by either Intel's 8th Gen Core series or AMD's Ryzen processor, the IdeaPad S340 combines the strengths of the IdeaPad 330 and IdeaPad 330S. It's the cheapest Lenovo laptop to sport a physical shutter for the webcam. It's a good buy for students and working professionals alike.
Though it runs Chrome OS instead of Windows, the HP Chromebook 14 is an ideal choice for anyone looking to browse on the web, check email, and watch videos occasionally. What's more, the Chromebook 14 sports a solid build for a laptop of its price.
Successor to the 2018 IdeaPad 330, the IdeaPad S145 recently entered the market with a slightly slimmer and lighter look. The S145 range sports Intel's 8th Gen Core series CPUs with both SSD and HDD options. The screen size is either 14 inches or 15.6 inches depending on the variant you choose.
The 2019 Asus VivoBook 14 is in our top ten list because it's the first model in India to bring the Nvidia GeForce MX250 GPU to the masses. It's also a very good laptop otherwise for everyday computing and light entertainment. The keyboard quality has gone up too.
The Lenovo IdeaPad 330S has a classy design, solid build, crisp non-glossy display, and adequate battery life. It features 8th-gen Intel Core series processors. The base model has 4GB of RAM and 1TB of HDD-based storage. The display is a Full HD non-glare unit that displays colours beautifully. Performance on this laptop is decent as long as it's not pushed too far.
The HP 15 comes with a 15.6-inch Full HD display and is powered by an Intel 8th Gen Core i5 CPU with up to 8GB of RAM. It comes with a 1TB hard drive and an option to insert an M.2-based SSD. It weighs 2 kilogrammes and runs Windows 10 out of the box.
The Lenovo ThinkPad E480 may be a little on the costlier side but it's surely worth the extra bucks because it comes with a supremely comfortable keyboard and a very responsive precision touchpad. Aim to get it with an SSD.
Launched in late 2018, the Lenovo IdeaPad 130 comes in 14-inch and 15-inch variants. It has Intel's 8th Gen Core series processors, 4GB of RAM, and a 1TB hard drive. With no optical disc drive, it weighs in at about 2 kilogrammes.
If your budget is a little tight and still want most out of your money, get the Acer Aspire E5-575G. It is powered by a 6th Gen Intel Core i3 processor, along with 4GB of RAM. It also includes an NVIDIA GeForce 940MX GPU with 2GB of VRAM. The 15.6-inch HD display is ample for all kinds of tasks, and 1TB storage is pretty much the standard at this price. Acer also provides a 1 year international warranty on the machine.
Going further down the price tree we have the Asus Vivobook X541UA. The machine looks good and is performs well, thanks to the 7th gen Intel Core i3 processor. There is 4GB of RAM and 1TB HDD storage on the laptop, but you don't get a OS pre-installed. It is a good machine for students, who might want to install Linux.
