7 Best Laptops for College Students

6. Sony VAIO E15 (SVE15116FXS)

Sony has always been known to produce style and substance in the same gadget. They have done the same with the VAIO E15. The laptop has a 15.5 inch screen with a resolution of 1366 x 768 pixels. The laptop comes powered with an Intel third generation Core i5 processor which will give powerful power as well as productivity.

It comes with a full sized keypad with back-lit chiclet keys. Though the keys are comfortable to work on the back light does prove to be distracting at times.  The touchpad is extremely smooth and responsive. Though the battery life proves to be a letdown as it gives the user a very short battery back time.

The 1.3-megapixel web cam comes with gesture controls but they aren’t very useful. The VAIO E15 is equipped with a 750GB hard drive. On the whole this is indeed a good buy keeping in mind the price as well its features.
