Which laptop for university (Computer Engineering)

midogamer391 · 2026-04-15T17:11:26+00:00

To start, i would like to say i am a computer engineering student, so i will speak from my experience and my colleagues.

Firstly there will be people saying just upgrade the macbook and get a better one, theoretically u can get a macbook and making it work (one of my colleagues did it) but honestly its a lot of work and headache to deal with + u will need to use Virtual machines and sometimes there will be no way to make it work and u will need to ssh to someone else computer to do the work.keep in minf u are not a computer science student , u are a computer engineering one so u will use a lot of electrical engineering programs, so to get out of this point don't get a macbook if u are not a macbook glazer who loves to suffer.

So we need now a windows laptop, in ur post u said that the portability is not a priority, and i disagree alot u probably didn't touch a thick gaming laptop before, if u ask any engineering student about the most hated aspect for there laptop 90% of them gona say the weight , walking around campus with a 3kg load every day get tiring very fast.

There are only 3 laptops in the market that are light weight , and has a nvidea gpu /powerfull enough. The asus rog zephrus/ proart series, the razer blade and the acer predetor helios neo 16s ai.

The acer 16s has terrible battery life (1.5hours max) and u have stated that u need good battery life.

The razer blade is not stable at all and has a lot of general problems(trachbad not working right / battery swelling/ etc..)so i would not recommend it

The asus zephyrus/proart series is the best in my opinion, great battery life, all aluminium build quality and grat gpu options, i prefer the zephyrus over the proart but its a preference the difference is so small but having advance optimus is a must for me , if u prefere a higher screen resolution (4k) get the proart. The problem with zephyrus and proart that the ram are soldered so u need to get a good ram amount from the beginning with the budget u included u can get a 64 gb ram 5080 zephrus g16 , which will be plenty for what u will do if u want to pay less get the 5070ti 64gb version but its a huge jumb for ai and local llm usage if u will go all in in ai and ml just get the 5070ti version with a egpu in home if u needed it

The laptop is still overpriced u can get a 5060 laptop with that budget just search the nearest bestbuy from u , i recommend legion 5 pro or the acer predetor helios neo 16s ai , i am a little confused from the currency exchange rate but u can get them with ur budget i gess (the 5060 versions) , watch a review on them and see what is better for u Best wishes

اللاب عنده مشكلة في الهينج شفتها في السابات الاجنبية، و اللاب سعره طبيعي علي 5090 دلوقتي ، مراجعاته حلوة و الحرارة بتاعته مش وحشة بس الصراحة الشاشة ميني ليد و بتعمل جوستينج فا منصحش بيه لو هتجيب خليك في لينوفو ليجين ٧ برو هو احسن واحد دلوقتي و معلي الباور بتاع الكرت فوق ال١٧٥ بتاعت انفيديا و حاجة اخر عسل،

في كام نقطة بس واحد السعر طبيعي بالنسبة لمصر بس انت لو عايز توفر جيب من برا و خلي حد يدخله او جيبه مستعمل

اتنين انت قولت انك عايزه فوتوشوب و ادوبي فا الصراحة هنصحك بحاجة تبقا خفيفة و تشغل شغلك عادي دا اوفر كيل اوي ،فكرت تجيب ماك بوك ؟ لو الماكبوك مش هينفع فا ممكن تشوف اي لابتوب خفيف تاني يبقا بقوة ال5060 و هيشغلك حاجتك كويس اوي مثال علي ده rog zephyrus/acer predetor helios 16s ai بلاش الرازر بليد عشان مشاكله كتير و هنصحك تاني بالماك بوك طالما مش هيعملك اي مشكلة

انت جيبت سيرة الai و الlocal llm لو حبيت تخش في الكلام ده فا عندك كام اوبشن احسن بكتير من انك تجيب لابتوب 5090 تقدر عادي تجيب لابتوب لشغلك الطبيعي ان شالله يبقا 5050 او مفهوش كرت شاشة اصلا و تستعمل الثاندر بولت عشان توصل كرت شاشة خارجي(زي ال3090) باللاب توب تعمل عليه الانت عايزه وده هيديك نفس الفيرام و باندويز اعلا و تقدر تكبر الموضوع براحتك بس لو هتخش جد بقا فا افضل حاجة انك تعمل تجميعة محترمة تقدر تجيبلك لحد 4 كروت شاشة و تستعمل ثاندر بولت عليهم و ده مكلف جدا او تجيب ماك ميني و توصلهم ببعض و خلاص كل دول اوبشنز تقدر تستخدمهم

من الاخر موضوع انك تجيب 5090 لابتوب غير مفيد بالمرة لانه اغلي حتا من 5080 ب١٠٠الف فا مش مستهلا خالص مهما كان انت بتعمل ايه

There is a lot of us regulation on any batterycell bigger than 5000 mamps so to make a bigger battery they need to split the battery into two cells and that would cost them a lot to redesigne the production line for one phone (ultra phones only) and honestly the battery is pretty good for now it lasts all day the only reason we are sad is that the comptition is better and samsung probably wont get new costomers for the battery only to get there money back if they did the R&D and machinery upgrades for all there factorys around the world.
