    Here are a few (in my opinion) important clues. you must know that what you need in the laptop (and not what the seller wants to sell you).
    • Screen size (thus the overall size of the laptop)
    • Screen type (reflective and non-reflecting)
    • Volume
    • Weight of the laptop
    • Keyboard
    • Equipment
    • Performance

    For my assessment I have assumed that the majority of the students has the following user behavior. So you must take care of that.
    • A lot of word processing,
    • A lot of Internet and e-mail
    • Spreadsheet
    • Images archive
    • Image processing
    • 0 watch movies on laptop
    • Fewer games

    How long can they hold a laptop without a power supply is important if you carry the laptop in lectures, or sit waiting at the door of the professor.There are many of the devices which holds 8 hours of battery backup and so you must get laptop with a good battery backup.

    And again when we are carrying around. The smaller the laptop, the less it weighs. Consider how often you want to carry around the laptop, and then decide. With some devices, the CD or DVD drive is swapped out, so you save weight and volume. As you want it for study purpose then you will have to carry that along with you in the lectures and so you must take care that it should be of less weight.

    If you just want to have the laptop for study purpose then you can go for the netbook. This is with the low configuration but as you want for studies the this will be best for you. You can also consider to have Akash Tablet.
