What do we need to say about the MacBook Air? First released in 2008 as a more affordable alternative to the MacBook Pro, it’s the perfect laptop for school and college students. With an 8-core CPU and Apple’s new M1 chip, it delivers lightning fast CPU, GPU, and machine learning performance. In fact, some reviewers have said that it’s almost pointless spending the extra money on the MacBook Pro now because the MacBook Air is so damn fast. If you’re just buying this laptop for school work and internet research, it’s probably a little overpowered. It can easily handle photo editing, video editing, music production, and gaming. Another super important feature is the new improved battery. It can last up to 18 hours on a single charge, which means it can easily last through the school day and keep going on those after school study sessions! 

It might seem a little expensive for a laptop but the performance and durability make it money well spent. Just make sure you get every type of insurance possible. Apple repairs are notoriously expensive.

The Apple iPad Mini might just be the ultimate back-to-school gadget. It’s versatile enough to be used for all schoolwork or just as an additional tool to a laptop. With the new A12 Bionic chip, it delivers incredibly fast performance and can run the latest (and most powerful) apps. There’s a reason the iPad has stayed at the top of the tablet game and that’s because it’s the best. The other main feature is the super bright 7.9-inch retina display. Easy to read in any lighting conditions and full of amazing color, it’s also one of the most sensitive touch screens around. Buy an Apple Pencil (sold separately) and you’ll never need a sheet of paper again. We could go on and on about all of the iPad’s amazing features but instead, we’ll just say this – if you’re going back to school, this will make life a whole lot easier.
