It would soon become that time of the year when Nigerian and African students are looking to get into their final year projects in full swing. For others, it is almost the time for entry examinations, which means they should better be planning to get a laptop computer of their own anytime soon too.
Likewise, we have students who might just be looking to upgrade the piece of hardware on their hands. No matter which category you fall into, though, here are a couple of reasons why the Spectre x360 13 from HP provides one of the best fits for you.
1 Brand Presence
HP is already one of the biggest brands in the Africa market. This means you will be purchasing from a manufacturer who has a history of service in the region – and have proven their worth many times than one.Likewise, you will always find tech support for your laptop and quite easily so, since many other people have something from a similar manufacturer.
Speaking of tech support, the presence of HP in this market means there are specialists who have taken up repair jobs in this niche, ensuring you can always access repair and replacement services when you do need them.
2 Form factor
The name of this device – Spectre x360 13 – already gives off the fact that it comes in at 13 inches. At the same time, HP did something amazing on the screen area, making the device as bezel-less as they could manage. In simple terms, while the unit is on the small side in itself, it does give you all the screen real estate you need.By extension, this means you get a large enough screen for your document and media consumption while also having a unit that is easy to carry around. With a weight profile that is much lesser than what was on its predecessor too, this form factor just fits the student lifestyle.
Oh, did we mention that the laptop is also a convertible unit? Think about the cool factor and functionality that brings on board.
3 Battery
Power outages can occur at any time, especially in these parts of the world. While they could be fixed or bettered with the use of alternative power, you don’t want to rely on that when you have an important exam to study for, a presentation to give, etc.HP solves this issue by providing users with as much as 22 hours of battery life on the newly released unit. To put that in context, that is a battery that will almost last the full day.
4 Aesthetics
If we will be honest with ourselves, you do want your laptop to stand out from the pack. Beyond the functionality, everyone wants a piece of hardware that makes a statement in any room it walks into. The form factor of this device does that, and its convertible feature makes it even more desirable.Available in color finishes of Nightfall Black and Natural Silver, everything of this unit reeks beauty
5 User privacy and security
Perhaps the biggest win for students is the privacy and security section of this device.Besides all the amazing specs that HP had packed on this unit, they still found a way to make users safer when using the laptop.
The first comes in the way of a physical webcam kill switch which enables the user toggle off the webcam. Instead of just exiting the webcam app, this kill switch disconnects the webcam totally, making it impossible for hackers to remotely spy on you with your own webcam.
The same is true for the microphone port which has a dedicated mute key on the keyboard panel. It is an LED-based button, so it doesn’t cramp up keyboard space either.
Perhaps the most interesting security addition comes in the way of HP’s partnership with ExpressVPN to bring software from the latter company to users. While you might think a VPN is only for changing your location at will, they do so much more: from protecting you against the many dangers of those free Wi-Fi networks to encrypting your internet traffic when sending sensitive files over the web.
