OmniBook 5 14 with Snapdragon X Plus and OLED screen
The battery pick for students who spend all day away from an outlet. TechRadar's testing found more than 16 hours of battery life, and it pairs that stamina with a 14-inch OLED screen, 16GB of memory, a backlit keyboard and a weight under 3 pounds, a combination rare at this price.
It runs Windows on Arm, so confirm that every program your course requires has an Arm version or runs well under emulation before you buy. The warranty listed for it is 12 months, which makes an extended plan worth pricing for a three-year degree.
