The core of the question is whether college students should buy a tablet or a laptop first? When there is no computer, the first thing to consider is to buy a computer. In fact, tablets are of little use to most of us in college, because except for professional painting majors, we may need to use sketches, etc. Compared with tablets, Apart from convenience, it is rarely used by other majors. In addition, the use of tablets does have limitations. For example, if you are also doing documents, the buttons that come with the computer and the size of the screen are just right. Tablets not only need to be paired with a Bluetooth keyboard, but also in terms of application support, Android tablets It is an enlarged version of the mobile phone, and the iPad is actually similar, so you seem to have promised me what I want before buying it, but actually when the university teacher assigns tasks to make documents or PPT, you will find that your The tablet is really hard to use.
The limitations of the tablet are relatively large, so after you buy it, it may be more convenient to watch videos and play games, but other than that, it is really not very useful. As for laptops, you can actually buy a thin and light laptop for 3,000 yuan now, and for our purposes, it is more practical. The two are positioned products of different levels. The tablet is positioned for light office use and emergency processing of some files. Although convenient, some restrictions on interface configuration and so on are indeed not very practical for us.
As someone who has been there, tablets are really useless. Especially the tasks assigned by university teachers basically require computers to be completed. Your small tablet is really vulnerable when it comes to solving these problems. Just like when you are making a PPT, do you think the computer is faster or the tablet is faster? The screen The limitation of size results in the omission of many things. Nowadays, thin and light notebooks are actually not high in price, easy to carry, and have good battery life, so they can be our first choice.
Answer completed
I am an engineering major in college. I personally recommend buying a tablet first, because engineering majors will involve software production and drawings, and this kind of professional course is usually only offered in the sophomore year. , so as for a computer, you can buy it as a sophomore, and a tablet can handle your studies as a freshman.
For liberal arts majors, the opposite may be true. Freshman students will have to deal with a large number of files such as ppts, so liberal arts majors recommend buying a computer first.
If you want to play games with your college dormitory, it is recommended to buy a computer first, because college students are really free.
If they are students from Guangdong and Fujian, they generally don’t think about it. They will consider buying a new mobile phone, then a new tablet, and finally where to buy a new computer. (PS: This is not a complaint. Two Fujian roommates in the university dormitory said that they basically buy new equipment like this every time they start school.)
Depending on the individual, I recommend a laptop, if it’s you Most of my professional courses require computers, such as CAD, PS, and PR. They all rely on computers. I personally don’t use tablets much. I may use them more for online classes. I just bought a laptop two days ago. , Actually, laptops are better, buy one with high configuration, you can handle games and study, and do both study and entertainment [witty] [witty], I recommend Shadow Elf V and Lenovo y7000 and y7000p. If you like high cost performance, I recommend Shenzhou God of War The price-performance ratio of the series is not generally good. You can search on the official website and you will know by looking at the configuration. The configuration of the Shadow Elf 5 I bought is: CPUi5 9300h, graphics card gtx1060ti 6G, 8G memory, 512 solid state, 144hz monitor. Let me emphasize it here. The 144hz monitor is really good. It’s good news for gamers. Master Lu scored 320,000. It’s just for reference. It’s no problem in AAA games.
First of all, I personally think you should buy a laptop first.
Because compared to tablet computers, laptops have more complete and powerful functions. Especially in terms of study, such as doing projects and homework, it is definitely better to use a laptop to do it.
Secondly, the role of tablet computers may be more entertainment-oriented, such as watching movies, and current smartphones can actually replace it in most cases.
To sum up, when you have just entered college and are not very well-off, it would be better to choose a laptop with complete functions that is convenient for learning without delaying entertainment.
Of course, if you are a classmate from a good family and have money in your pocket, you can buy both together if you like.
I strongly recommend that you buy a laptop first.
Although a laptop is not as portable as a tablet, its benefits are far more than that of a tablet.
First of all, computers are more universal
The functions of laptops are the same as desktop computers, and when you start working in the future, your unit may equip you with a laptop, but not I said I would equip you with a tablet. Learning some computer operations early will also help lay the foundation for future work. The performance support of tablets is generally not as good as that of computers.
Secondly, computer integration is strong
When you buy a tablet, it is like buying an enlarged version of a mobile phone. If you buy a tablet alone, it does not have that kind of keyboard, and these If you later want to achieve the feeling of using a computer, you will need to purchase an additional keyboard or pen. The overall cost-effectiveness is not as good as buying a computer directly in one package, which saves time and effort.
Finally, computers are more operable
After college, we will make various documents, and sometimes we will download some software ourselves to learn skills, and whenever this happens The role of the computer comes into play and it can be operated very well.
Hello everyone, I am Octopus Myna, and I am very happy to answer this question.
Regarding this issue, I think I still have a say. First of all, I am now a college student myself and have had this purchasing experience. If your course does not require a computer, I recommend buying a tablet first.
As for why I say this, let me talk about my own situation first. I bought a computer first. The reason why I bought it at that time was that all my classmates bought it, and then I also wanted to buy one. Can be used to assist learning. But after one semester, I regretted it. I found that the computer I bought was of no use at all. It was not as convenient as a mobile phone to watch learning videos. The courses I studied did not require a computer. Other students who bought computers mainly used them for playing games. game. At this time, many students bought tablets, and after a period of understanding, I felt that it would be better to just buy tablets from the beginning.
Tablets have great advantages in learning:
1. Compared with mobile phones, the screen is larger, making it more comfortable to watch online classes and learning videos. Compared with computers, It can be carried with you, which is more convenient;
2. You can equip it with a pen and take notes directly on the courseware or electronic textbooks, which is something that computers cannot do;
3. The tablet can be split-screen, so you can watch videos and take notes at the same time. There are also many software for learning, drawing, painting, etc. which are very convenient;
4. When you have free time and want to have fun and relax, It is also very good to watch dramas on a tablet.
The above is my personal opinion, for reference only, I hope it can bring you some help.
This all depends on personal needs
Let me not talk about tablets or laptops first, let’s talk about the actual situation first.
As someone who has come here and is also majoring in electronic information, it sounds like a computer must be a must. But I have seen too many people who say that they need to buy computers for studying in college. In the end, they basically don’t use them. Most of them are used to play games and are basically left idle in the dormitory. What’s more, some students come here without computers. , it’s just that the graduation thesis may require a computer, but it can be completed using a classmate’s computer.
Nowadays, most people use mobile phones to work and study, which can meet the basic needs of many people. Nowadays, there are still a few people who use computers to listen to music, watch videos and chat. Who is not lying in the dormitory using a mobile phone?
For the few majors that really require computers and are a necessity, the computer rooms of most universities are open, and many university libraries are now equipped with computers. My personal opinion is that if you really want to learn something, then a computer is necessary. For example, if you want to learn ps, cad, programming and participate in some competitions, ppt capabilities, etc., although these are available in the computer room, user habits are very important, and we I don’t want to have to reinstall some software every time I’m learning something.
If you don’t have enough need to learn these things, there is no need to buy a tablet or laptop.
Of course, now back to your question.
It depends on your needs. If the demand is not large, I personally recommend you buy a tablet. Even if it is difficult to operate on a mobile phone for some writing and production, a tablet can basically meet more than 90% of the functions and is easy to carry. And equipped with a keyboard and mouse set, it is more convenient to handle study and homework papers.
I am a freshman, and I will tell you this answer based on my actual experience in the past six months
I suggest you buy a computer first for the following reasons:
1. During college, many course assignments need to be completed online. Computers are more operable than tablets in office work.
2. If you are a member of the student union or class committee during college, you also need to complete some work online.
3. There will be course selection during college, and computers are more convenient.
5. There will be computer courses during college, which will be offered in the freshman year. It is much more convenient if you have a little brain.
The above five points are my experience as a freshman. Students who did not buy a computer would borrow other students’ computers, which was a lot of inconvenience for everyone during college. So it is best to recommend that you buy a computer. I recommend the Lingyao series computers. The price is not very expensive and the quality is still very good based on my experience this year. Hope the above information is useful to you.
2. Without a doubt, computers.
3. Although the performance and configuration of tablets and laptops tend to be similar, they are still two different things after all. Laptops are out-and-out productivity tools, and although tablets can also serve as productivity tools to some extent, they are more entertainment-oriented in terms of performance and usage habits, and are suitable as supplements to laptops rather than replacements.
4. As a college student, the usage scenarios are as follows: dormitory, classroom, study room, library, etc. Let’s look at it. Most of these scenarios can be used by laptops and tablets. There is no saying that only tablets can be used... Of course, if you have to say that tablets are thinner and lighter than laptops... then that’s okay...
5. Let’s talk about the current usage needs of college students. Most of them are relatively professional, such as programming learning, large-scale programs (graphics design), paper writing, etc. How much of these needs can tablets afford?
6. You must know that in today's IT industry, thinness and performance cannot be achieved at the same time. You can have both, and the budget must be able to keep up.
7. Therefore, if you have a mine at home, then of course it is most suitable to buy both. The laptop has high performance and looks good; the tablet has high quality and looks good.
8. If the budget is limited, it is definitely more meaningful to buy a cost-effective laptop first.
We need to look at the purpose of college students buying electronic products? If it is for academic needs or academic requirements to buy a computer, then you must buy a computer. But according to most current college students, computers have become tools for entertainment, and few can actually use them in courses.
I remember a relative’s child who got a bachelor’s degree. When he came back, no matter whether his family had money or not, he made a fuss and bought both a tablet and a computer. The reason was very simple: other classmates had them, and the school I want to use it..., when I come back from the semester break, I hold my tablet and computer all day long and play games. How many times have I used this kind of computer in my studies? (I exclude those who study computer majors and design who really need to use computers here. students! )
