Windows Options:
If you’re on the hunt for a laptop that handles everyday tasks like Excel, Word, and Google Meet without any fuss, our entry-level options are a great fit. Check out the Dell Latitude 7450—it's a 5th Gen laptop with an i5 processor, 8GB of RAM, and a 256GB SSD, which you can upgrade as needed. Prefer HP? The HP 840 G2 is another solid choice. Just remember, these laptops run on Windows 10.
For most everyday tasks, Windows 10 will do the trick. You only need to consider Windows 11 if you’re diving into editing, coding, or design work that requires the latest OS. Not sure if your software will run on Windows 10? Drop us a message, and we’ll help you figure it out!
If you’re a Windows 11 user, we recommend the Dell Latitude 3490 from our starting range. It’s an 8th Gen laptop that lets you customize the SSD and RAM to fit your needs perfectly.
If speed is your top priority and you’re tired of dealing with sluggish performance, just upgrade the RAM to 16GB. This will let you juggle as many tabs and tasks as you want without any hiccups.
For those who want the latest and greatest—something that looks sleek and performs like a champ—the Dell Inspiron 14 is a fantastic choice. It’s part of Dell’s newest lineup and can handle most tasks with ease, except for those that need a dedicated graphics card.
Macbook Options:
For most people, the MacBook Air with the M1 chip will do just fine. It's perfect for design and animation software that runs on the M series. But if you’re a coder who needs a bit more power, go for the MacBook with the M2 chip and 16GB of RAM. This setup will handle heavy local files and multitasking without a hitch.
If you need a big screen for your design or coding work, the 16" MacBook is your best bet. For software that relies more on the operating system than on the processor, the MacBook Pro (8th Gen) with the i7 chip or the even more powerful i9 chip is a fantastic option. These models offer a powerful performance with a 16" display.
And if color accuracy is your top concern—because precise RGB values are crucial for your designs—Macs are unbeatable. Our entry-level option, the 16" MacBook Pro 4th gen, comes with MacOS Monterey. Just make sure your software is compatible with this OS before you buy. If you’re unsure, feel free to drop us a message, and we’ll help you out!
