But which device is the one for you? That depends on your needs. Scholars who just need a simple setup to do homework while they’re at home can save the most money by purchasing a desktop—particularly an all-in-one, which includes all parts built into the display and will save desk space.
Those who want to bring their computer to class to take notes and the like should look into a laptop. The XPS line is Dell’s answer to the MacBook, boasting long battery life and a thin, ultra-portable build. The Vostro line is productivity-oriented, including business grade keyboards for your typing comfort as well as more screen space. The Inspiron line is more cost-effective and you can often find a decent no-frills configuration for $500 to $700.
If you’re enrolled in any sort of design course, you’ll want a device with a dedicated graphics card and at least 16GB of RAM. A stylus-compatible touch screen is worth considering if you like to take notes and draw the old-fashioned way.
If you didn't find just the right configuration above, be sure to check our the sale landing page for more options.
