 My name is Rashad and I'm currently studying physics at Queen Mary University of London. My hobbies are going to the gym three to four times a week and I've recently started Brazilian jiu-jitsu. I use a laptop for Facebook and social media. Netflix, watching shows, my emails, sometimes gaming. Me and my friends just sit in a core. We talk. The game is more of a background thing for us to socialise over. It's like meeting up with your friends and then watching a movie while you talk or something. The most important features of a laptop would be a lot of storage. My phone's connected to a OneDrive. I save a picture, it replicates it, copies it onto OneDrive. SSD compared to HDD. SSD is faster. It makes your life easier. When you turn your computer on, you'll definitely see a difference. Everything's just really smooth. Usability is very important. Being user-friendly and I'd like it to be lightweight so I can actually take it to uni. Some days we have quite a long lecture day. So it's usually lost maybe five or six hours. And if you have extra work and if you want to do your work with your friends, having a longer battery life definitely helps. Save space in my bag so I don't have to bring my charger. It just helps with not worrying about something while you have to worry about the massive amounts of work that you have to do. When you've got a bunch of deadlines and you are multitasking, you want to be able to do everything at the same time. And the processor speed just helps with that, cuts the frustration down. The programs and applications I use the most, I use Outlook. It's simple. It's just easy to use. At Microsoft Word I found out during my A-levels you can do the references as well. So that was very helpful, especially when dealing with the hassle of finding the references. You can just search them at the toolbar. When buying a laptop you want to look at all the options that you have and Argos has plenty of options from affordable to more powerful. It's helped a lot in deciding what I need. Good to keep in mind what you would need in the future years for your third year, especially when you have to present and type up your dissertation and you should be able to find a laptop that's good for you.
