Refurbished Laptop or Refurbished PC? – What is a Better Choice for a Student?
Portability:
A student can easily take their laptops and take down notes, search the web for information or watch a movie to kill time before the next lecture.
Cost-Effective:
It is not necessary to buy an expensive laptop with high – end specifications. A laptop with average specs that can perform basic tasks would be enough.
Gaming:
A student goes through a lot of stress and gaming is one of how that stress can be reduced. Refurbished Laptops are not designed for heavy gaming however; you can achieve moderate gaming with low – medium settings.
Battery:
Having a battery in a laptop means that it can be used anywhere even if there is no electricity. Whereas a PC needs to be connected to an electrical outlet to work
A laptop comes with an in-built keyboard and a mouse, which means it is not necessary to buy these peripherals separately, which further reduces the cost of the purchase.
Wires Everywhere:
Working on a refurbished PC requires a keyboard, a mouse, a LAN wire and a printer to be connected. But a laptop only needs its charger.
Power Usage:
A laptop consumes less power than a desktop PC. Smaller components mean less power is required to make them function.
Upgradability:
Upgrading in laptops is limited. RAM and hard drive are the only components that can be upgraded. The remaining components are either built-in and are non-removable.
Repair:
For most students opening a laptop and repairing a part can be difficult and finding the right replacement part often requires calling the laptop manufacturer. Whereas a desktop PC is easy to repair since most of the hardware can easily be purchased off the shelf.
Due to its portability and ease of use, I believe that a Refurbished Laptop is a better choice for a student to use rather than using a refurbished PC. For more information on our latest products click on this link.
