If you're a college student, a laptop will help you meet the demands of a busy schedule, from daily schoolwork, research, and test prep to email, social media, and leisure activities. A MacBook® offers an easy, user-friendly system equipped to handle the rigors of regular use while providing a dependable and secure place to store information. Here are a few features that make these laptops ideal for students. 

A College Student’s Guide to Useful MacBook Features 

1. A Digital Assistant

Other manufacturers have their own digital assistants, but none can compare to the efficiency of Siri®. When deep in thought or several pages into writing a paper, stopping to look up a word or definition can throw off your pace and focus. However, with Siri, you can ask her to find the answer for you, all without breaking your concentration. With newer Mac computers, you just have to say Hey Siri, and she'll pick up your voice and respond as long as the laptop is open.

2. Light Weight

A college student needs a laptop that can travel, something that slips effortlessly into a backpack or tucks securely under an arm. Mac computers are remarkably lightweight, especially MacBook Air® models, which were once promoted as the world's thinnest notebook computer. That doesn't mean, however, that they skimp on features. They come with a full-size keyboard, a machined aluminum case, and a slim, lightweight structure.

3. Long Battery Life

When you're in class, at the library, or on the quad, you may not have quick access to an electrical outlet. But the MacBook has one of the longest-lasting batteries on the market. For instance, the 15-inch MacBook Pro® holds a charge for an average of 12 hours. This is likely more than enough to get you through a full day of classes and studying without having to stress about finding a nearby power source.
