School Laptops

As the new year approaches, you may be thinking about how to buy a laptop for school that is going to meet all their needs. If you need a laptop for school kids who are younger, it is often easy to overlook what they need and just buy a high-end laptop that has everything. Yet, as a child, they may need a more reliable choice, one that can take dings and is still able to use. You may also want to choose school laptops that offer valuable features and ample security built into them. Before you make a purchase, let our team at Lenovo help you.


You will find a wide range of options in a laptop for school kids available here. That includes highly affordable and well-built laptops that offer the features they need without bogging them down with too much power. Even if your child is into gaming, you can find great options available to help them have fun.


School Laptop Types


There are options when it comes to a school laptop. That includes the ThinkPad X1, Yoga 71, and the Legion 5 lineup. No matter what brand you buy, it is best to consider the features most important to your student. The good news is there are outstanding options on the market to meet about every need. Consider these factors before making a purchase.


Traditional laptop


The best school laptops tend to be a traditional type. That is, they open, have a keyboard, and have basic features on them. These keep costs low, and they are often the best options for students who may be more likely to drop a laptop. School issued laptops are often this type, though they are often basic and have very few features to keep busy kids active. When it comes to this type of laptop, school requirements are generally met though some offer a bit more processing power and other latest features to enhance their functionality.


2 in 1 laptop


Sometimes, laptops for schooling must able to do a bit more, including providing a way to watch videos and engage using a touchscreen. These are laptops that cost a bit more. They can often do all of the same things as traditional school issued laptops, but they often go a bit further. For those who want a more versatile laptop, this can be a good choice.


Features on Kids Laptops


As you shop for a laptop for school kids, you are sure to find more than options to choose from, and that can be overwhelming. There is no doubt that the best laptops for schooling are going to need a sound design and a durable structure, but it is also important to consider the actual features and components on them. The good news is you can choose from a range of high-end and basic features that can help your younger child do well in school without putting them at risk. Here are the key features to look for in any laptop you buy for school.


Size


One of the most important things to consider about laptops for school is the size. That is because size often makes it hard for students to use and manage their laptops. If their laptop is too large, a child is more likely to drop it or struggle with opening it. That creates a situation where they may not want to use it, and that's not what you want for their education. Rather, it is best to find a size that best fits their needs.


Many school laptops are about 14 inches, though some are 15 inches. For older children, such as those who are in high school, you may be able to buy a larger laptop. However, doing so may cost a significant amount more. While you are considering the size of the laptop, school devices also need to be lightweight enough to carry. You want them to be able to carry the laptop easily and be able to open it up and set it up to use with ease.


Processor


A school laptop needs a good processor. It does not have to be the best quality of processor, but a reliable processor is going to help ensure that the student can use the laptop with ease, whether that includes browsing the internet, watching videos for school, or communicating in a virtual classroom. School issued laptops tend to have a basic processor, but you can invest in a bit of a higher quality if you want your child to be able to use their laptop for other needs.


There are options out there for laptops for schooling. An AMD Ryzen 3 processor or an Intel Core i3 processor are good options overall. You do not have to have the most powerful setup, but it may be beneficial to have a 2.50 GHz and up to 3.70 GHz Max Boost, along with 8 threads and 4 cores. A 4 MB cache is also common on laptops for school.


Operating system


You can choose from multiple types of operating systems, but the best school laptops for every student are those on the Windows platform. If you go this route, choose one that offers top performance features and is a modern generation. For example, a Windows 10 model, either the Home or Pro edition, can be a solid choice for most needs.


Memory


You do not always need a lot of memory for a school laptop, but it is a good idea to buy a system that offers enough. That is, you want around 8 GB of memory whenever possible. This will deliver the highest level of function for the processor and help support most activities online as well. That includes browsing the internet and watching videos. If your child engages in more than this, or you buy a laptop with a higher processor, it may need more memory to be able to process content properly and not cause a lag or a delay.

 

Storage


Also important in the purchase of any laptop is the amount of storage it has. It is typically best to choose one that offers ample storage of at least 256 GB of space on an SSD. If you want more than this, especially if you plan to have the laptop be used for a number of years, consider upgrading to a 512 GB model. That is less likely to be necessary in most cases for children who are using a laptop in elementary school. It becomes more important in high school and later in college.


Webcam


When shopping for a laptop for students who may need to learn from home, seek out one that offers a quality webcam. Some of the lowest budget options out there have inferior webcams that create very poor images, or they may have trouble with good overall resolution. This can create a problem for a student who needs to be able to communicate information clearly over the internet.


It is also important to choose a system with a good mic for the same reasons. The budget school laptops that do not have a good mic may require the use of a headphone set to improve overall communication. That does not have to be the case if you buy a quality system now.


How to Save Money on Laptops for School


For parents, a laptop is a big investment. If you buy a quality product now, it is likely to last them for years, especially if you buy one of the laptops offered by Lenovo that are geared towards younger children using them. These have a very easy to use design, but they are powerful enough for day-to-day use. It is worth it to buy a quality laptop. The goal then is to look for school laptop deals that make it possible for you to have a good experience at a lower price.


For example, you can find school laptop deals available from Lenovo for all of the laptops we offer. These are high-quality laptops, though designed with top features for students to use.

You will find a wide range of options in a laptop for school kids available here. That includes highly affordable and well-built laptops that offer the features they need without bogging them down with too much power. Even if your child is into gaming, you can find great options available to help them have fun.


School Laptop Types


There are options when it comes to a school laptop. That includes the ThinkPad X1, Yoga 71, and the Legion 5 lineup. No matter what brand you buy, it is best to consider the features most important to your student. The good news is there are outstanding options on the market to meet about every need. Consider these factors before making a purchase.


Traditional laptop


The best school laptops tend to be a traditional type. That is, they open, have a keyboard, and have basic features on them. These keep costs low, and they are often the best options for students who may be more likely to drop a laptop. School issued laptops are often this type, though they are often basic and have very few features to keep busy kids active. When it comes to this type of laptop, school requirements are generally met though some offer a bit more processing power and other latest features to enhance their functionality.


2 in 1 laptop


Sometimes, laptops for schooling must able to do a bit more, including providing a way to watch videos and engage using a touchscreen. These are laptops that cost a bit more. They can often do all of the same things as traditional school issued laptops, but they often go a bit further. For those who want a more versatile laptop, this can be a good choice.


Features on Kids Laptops


As you shop for a laptop for school kids, you are sure to find more than options to choose from, and that can be overwhelming. There is no doubt that the best laptops for schooling are going to need a sound design and a durable structure, but it is also important to consider the actual features and components on them. The good news is you can choose from a range of high-end and basic features that can help your younger child do well in school without putting them at risk. Here are the key features to look for in any laptop you buy for school.


Size


One of the most important things to consider about laptops for school is the size. That is because size often makes it hard for students to use and manage their laptops. If their laptop is too large, a child is more likely to drop it or struggle with opening it. That creates a situation where they may not want to use it, and that's not what you want for their education. Rather, it is best to find a size that best fits their needs.


Many school laptops are about 14 inches, though some are 15 inches. For older children, such as those who are in high school, you may be able to buy a larger laptop. However, doing so may cost a significant amount more. While you are considering the size of the laptop, school devices also need to be lightweight enough to carry. You want them to be able to carry the laptop easily and be able to open it up and set it up to use with ease.


Processor


A school laptop needs a good processor. It does not have to be the best quality of processor, but a reliable processor is going to help ensure that the student can use the laptop with ease, whether that includes browsing the internet, watching videos for school, or communicating in a virtual classroom. School issued laptops tend to have a basic processor, but you can invest in a bit of a higher quality if you want your child to be able to use their laptop for other needs.


There are options out there for laptops for schooling. An AMD Ryzen 3 processor or an Intel Core i3 processor are good options overall. You do not have to have the most powerful setup, but it may be beneficial to have a 2.50 GHz and up to 3.70 GHz Max Boost, along with 8 threads and 4 cores. A 4 MB cache is also common on laptops for school.


Operating system


You can choose from multiple types of operating systems, but the best school laptops for every student are those on the Windows platform. If you go this route, choose one that offers top performance features and is a modern generation. For example, a Windows 10 model, either the Home or Pro edition, can be a solid choice for most needs.


Memory


You do not always need a lot of memory for a school laptop, but it is a good idea to buy a system that offers enough. That is, you want around 8 GB of memory whenever possible. This will deliver the highest level of function for the processor and help support most activities online as well. That includes browsing the internet and watching videos. If your child engages in more than this, or you buy a laptop with a higher processor, it may need more memory to be able to process content properly and not cause a lag or a delay.

 

Storage


Also important in the purchase of any laptop is the amount of storage it has. It is typically best to choose one that offers ample storage of at least 256 GB of space on an SSD. If you want more than this, especially if you plan to have the laptop be used for a number of years, consider upgrading to a 512 GB model. That is less likely to be necessary in most cases for children who are using a laptop in elementary school. It becomes more important in high school and later in college.


Webcam


When shopping for a laptop for students who may need to learn from home, seek out one that offers a quality webcam. Some of the lowest budget options out there have inferior webcams that create very poor images, or they may have trouble with good overall resolution. This can create a problem for a student who needs to be able to communicate information clearly over the internet.


It is also important to choose a system with a good mic for the same reasons. The budget school laptops that do not have a good mic may require the use of a headphone set to improve overall communication. That does not have to be the case if you buy a quality system now.
