I need a good laptop for studying. What can you recommend? I'm going to study something in the social sciences, so I don't need a very good one now (just has to serve the purpose of writing homework and other things.
Any laptop under 600 euro is equally suitable for such a simple, stupid task. You can also use the one from your grandma from 20 years ago. LG
But it should be of high quality and up-to-date and ddd not break quickly 🙃
A computer from 20 years ago is of higher quality and more durable than one that you buy today.
A used Mac Book from EBay Classifieds.
And technically up to date, let's guess: 20 years?
Technically less performance, but enough performance for a text document.
That might be interesting (even if it is at the pain limit). It would only be advisable to upgrade the RAM to 16GB at some point. Otherwise, a used Thinkpad is always worth considering, these things are practically indestructible.
A Chromebook would do fine too. There you also have the Google Play Store so that you can also install Android apps on it. Word, Excel, Powerpoint, OneNote, Microsoft Teams are also available as Android apps. As a pupil and student, you can even get it for free as an Office 365 Education license.
You can also print with a Chromebook. To do this, you need a wireless printer. Then install the printer brand's printing app via the Google Play Store. If it is a multifunction device, you can also use it to scan.
Chromebooks are inexpensive and start extremely quickly. The Android apps also start quickly. This is because the Chrome OS operating system is tailored to the built-in components.

I once bought a used ThinkPad. I have had it for 7 years and I'm still satisfied.
Since then I've been buying used electronics items. They are often very good and only cost a fraction. The new articles are often sold right now.
I decided on an ideapad from Lenovo. Hope that is good too. ThinkPad was also up for grabs
I have now bought the ideapad flex 5 from Lenovo. I hope it's good. The one you sent to me also sounds very good
I think if you focus on quality and the device is maybe 1 year old, you have something very, very good.
