Laptops for College

How do you buy laptops for college? For those who are getting ready to go to college, there are a lot of factors to keep in mind when buying laptops. College is sure to offer a lot of needs for a computer system. It goes without saying that you need to choose a college computer system that offers all of the features you need. When looking for good laptops for college, choose based on the types of courses you plan to take and the type and amount of work you plan to do. The good news is most students do not need a super expensive or high-end laptop. They need a reliable model that offers some core features that can make a big difference to overall performance and even some fun.

Lenovo offers a wide selection of options that could fit just about any need. When you are in the market for college laptops and want the best your budget can offer, shop with us. We offer high quality laptops designed to provide superior overall features.

What Are You Taking?

Before you can choose good laptops for college, consider the type of programs you will take. This can play a big role in your overall success since some programs are going to require a lot more power and performance from the system than others will. For most of your basic college courses, you probably will benefit from a mid-range laptop, one that offers a basic or mid-level processor and some good visuals. You probably want to buy a good amount of storage no matter what college laptops you decide to purchase.

On the other hand, if you plan to take some of the more computer-intensive courses, it is wise to upgrade the system you are taking to a higher level. That may mean that you choose college laptops that have more processing power. You may also need more memory, better graphics, and an improved level of overall functionality. All of these features are important for courses in classes such as engineering, graphic design, computer programming, and courses that use a lot of programs like accounting and architecture.

If you are unsure where to start, look for the right laptops college students use for their day-to-day needs, and be sure you can upgrade. Not all of today's laptops can be upgraded – and that can play a role in the overall choices you make now.

What Else Do You Plan to Do?

As you consider these laptops, college students should also be aware of other activities they may want to use their laptops for. Even if you start out just planning to use them for school, it is likely they will provide you with other benefits.

One option is gaming. Many of today’s students want to be able to game with their system. That is an option if you buy one of the great laptops for college that includes gaming features. If this is something you plan to do, look for a higher level of processing power. You may also want to consider a gaming system that offers better features and a solid graphics card.

Other tasks that many college students engage in include things like video editing, especially if they plan to upload fun videos in their spare time to social media. You may also want great laptops for college that allow you to do some designing and drawing. IF that is the case, consider a 2-in-1 laptop. These have a highly sensitive screen and transform into a tablet, making it possible to have a bit more fun with your drawing and activities.

Consider Your Budget

The next thing to consider when buying college laptops is the amount of money you hope to spend. Often, it is best to set a budget before you start looking for laptops out there. Then, buy the best features and quality that you can get for that amount of money. There are many options to help you save.

The best affordable laptops for college students are going to be those that offer mid-range features and an overall durable design. Look for those that offer a good processor, enough memory for most needs, and ample storage.

Lenovo is here to help when it comes to great laptops for less. We offer some of the best affordable laptops for college students that do not compromise on the quality and value. You can expect name brand specs and outstanding features at a lower price overall. Take some time to check out our current offers, including the latest deals and discounts that may be available.

Top Features in College Laptops

Now that you have some idea of what you need and how you plan to use them, consider these tips to help you find the top laptops for college out there that fit your goals. Know that our team is here to help you. If you have questions, be sure to use our chat feature to get some more information. We are happy to help you make solid decisions for all of your needs.

The recommended laptops for college students we offer are mid-range models. Remember that if your budget allows, you can upgrade these good laptops for college to even better versions. It is always wise to choose what works for your needs.

Your processor

When you are after top laptops for college students, it is a good idea to choose a quality processor, especially if you plan to use your laptop for gaming, video editing, lots of programs at one time, or other computer-intensive activities.

It is a good idea to choose a laptop that offers an AMD Ryzen 5 processor or one that offers an Intel Core i3 or I5 processor for your basic functions. If you plan to do a lot of processing, setup this up as high as you can get. The Intel Core i7 is a fantastic option for most needs that college students have and keeps the costs much lower than the i9 model, which is typically best for professional gamers.

Graphics

As you consider the top laptops for college, look at the graphics cards or GPU that is included in the system. You have a lot of options here, and not all of them are going to provide you with the same level of performance that you expect. Some tasks require more graphics, such as gaming, photo editing, and designing. If you plan to do these activities, be sure to consider an NVIDIA GeForce graphics card or an equivalent that offers lots of overall performance. Check out some of the options that include an integrated graphics card, too, such as an Integrated Intel Iris Xe Graphics card if you are buying an Intel Core i7 laptop.

Operating System

The most recommended laptops for college students often include the use of a Windows operating system. You will find others out there, but Windows provides a lot of benefits to many college students. It is designed to handle more of the intensive game play that you have. That includes things like better function and support for your gaming processor or for other components. You do have some options in the operating system. Many of today’s more mid-range computers are going to offer a Windows 10 Home for college students. Feel free to upgrade that, if your budget allows, to a Windows 11 model. This latest generation is outstanding for overall functionality.

Sizing

What are good laptops for college when it comes to sizing? In general, you are going to find this is a personal decision. If you do not mind carrying more weight around with you, upgrade to a 16 inch model. However, most students do well with a 15 inch display. This provides a good level of overall screen size and allows you to handle most computer tasks in one system. For many reasons, you want to keep your laptop as lightweight as you can, and you want to be able to handle it with ease.

Memory

College laptops also need good memory. If you are looking for laptops, college students who engage in basic activities may do well with an 8 GB of memory. That is all you need most of the time, but you can upgrade if you are using the computer for gaming or other types of intense computer use.

What Do You Need?

Some great recommended laptops for college students are available to you from Lenovo. If you are looking for a good processor, a lot of memory, and good overall graphics, you may want to check out the Yoga 7i laptop. It is an affordable option as well.

For those who want more performance and better features and a laptop they can use well beyond college, consider the ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 9 Intel model. You have super-fast processing and a lightweight design that is easy to take with you. This is also a great option for collaboration remotely.

Take the time to check out all of the options available to you at Lenovo.

Your processor

When you are after top laptops for college students, it is a good idea to choose a quality processor, especially if you plan to use your laptop for gaming, video editing, lots of programs at one time, or other computer-intensive activities.

It is a good idea to choose a laptop that offers an AMD Ryzen 5 processor or one that offers an Intel Core i3 or I5 processor for your basic functions. If you plan to do a lot of processing, setup this up as high as you can get. The Intel Core i7 is a fantastic option for most needs that college students have and keeps the costs much lower than the i9 model, which is typically best for professional gamers.

Graphics

As you consider the top laptops for college, look at the graphics cards or GPU that is included in the system. You have a lot of options here, and not all of them are going to provide you with the same level of performance that you expect. Some tasks require more graphics, such as gaming, photo editing, and designing. If you plan to do these activities, be sure to consider an NVIDIA GeForce graphics card or an equivalent that offers lots of overall performance. Check out some of the options that include an integrated graphics card, too, such as an Integrated Intel Iris Xe Graphics card if you are buying an Intel Core i7 laptop.

Operating System

The most recommended laptops for college students often include the use of a Windows operating system. You will find others out there, but Windows provides a lot of benefits to many college students. It is designed to handle more of the intensive game play that you have. That includes things like better function and support for your gaming processor or for other components. You do have some options in the operating system. Many of today’s more mid-range computers are going to offer a Windows 10 Home for college students. Feel free to upgrade that, if your budget allows, to a Windows 11 model. This latest generation is outstanding for overall functionality.

Sizing

What are good laptops for college when it comes to sizing? In general, you are going to find this is a personal decision. If you do not mind carrying more weight around with you, upgrade to a 16 inch model. However, most students do well with a 15 inch display. This provides a good level of overall screen size and allows you to handle most computer tasks in one system. For many reasons, you want to keep your laptop as lightweight as you can, and you want to be able to handle it with ease.

Memory

College laptops also need good memory. If you are looking for laptops, college students who engage in basic activities may do well with an 8 GB of memory. That is all you need most of the time, but you can upgrade if you are using the computer for gaming or other types of intense computer use.
