Offline images Laptop consulting for students

A cozy offline session for students who want to choose a laptop for school, even those who have worked still come to attend, mainly to find out what has changed in laptops at this time, and how to buy it correctly.

Choosing a laptop for school has never been easy and especially in the current context, it is even more difficult, manufacturers like Intel, AMD or NVIDIA are bringing back old processors to lower prices and that makes users even more confused when choosing a computer.

The story of choosing a laptop always starts with needs and finances, these two things are the most important, the first step to choosing the right computer. I always tell students that the needs of the major are usually fixed and the curriculum is designed to cover as much as possible. Therefore, reference from seniors is important. Whether the machine is working properly or not will be fully shared, from there, choosing a machine will be easier.

Then comes the matter of choosing a chip, now there are countless chips from old to new on the market, choosing the right one is a problem that even when I sat down to synthesize it to share with you guys, I still felt confused. Basically, currently Intel, AMD, Apple and Qualcomm are the most popular in Vietnam. How does Intel choose chips, how does AMD choose, should Qualcomm buy now? I will help you somewhat "troubleshoot" in this session, hoping to help you choose a more suitable device.

I also borrowed many laptop models offline from HP, MSI, Apple, ASUS, for you to experience and have the most realistic view of the models in 2026. At first glance, if these laptop models in 2026 do not lower the configuration to reduce prices, they will also cut down on other factors such as screen and build quality. Evidence like the ASUS Zenbook 14, last year's Ryzen AI 7 350 configuration but with a 2.8K 120Hz screen, this year's Ryzen AI 445 but only FHD 60Hz. Or the Apple MacBook Neo is also my painful story, when it was still at a good price, I was hesitant to buy it. When I finally decided to buy it, the price went up, then I had to buy it.

But there are also laptop models that are inherently in the high-end, high-priced segment and are for those who like to experience the best. MSI Prestige 14 AI is an example, this machine is equipped with the latest Intel Core Ultra Series 3 "Panther Lake" platform, very beautiful OLED screen, very good build quality and the price will of course be high, about 4x million.

Gaming laptops are also quite a difficult choice at this time, configurations are very diverse. In this range, you will see Intel Core 13th Gen and 14th Gen laptops, combined with RTX 50 Series GPUs, or newer CPUs, the GPU will be reduced, to balance the price. Among these, I find the MSI Cyborg 2026 noteworthy because of the balance of both CPU and GPU, Intel Core i7-13620H CPU plus RTX 5050 will help you study 4 years of college comfortably, plus MSI's heat dissipation for these models is not bad, so you will have a laptop suitable for studying engineering, AI, and design.

HP also offers you a program to give away 4 AI software worth 4 million VND to you who buy HP Omni laptops or gaming laptops.

After choosing a laptop, choose the accessories and peripheral devices to use properly. Mr. Trungdt shared very carefully with you guys how to choose an ergonomic chair and equipment to use with the laptop. These are also extremely important as choosing a laptop. If you choose the wrong one, if you use it incorrectly, you will not be happy.

Actually, in a session like this, it is impossible to convey everything I want to say, because there are still many things to share, see you in the next sessions. Thank you MSI and Synnex FPT for accompanying me in this offline event.
