With colleges and schools back in session, many people will be looking for laptops. When looking to buy or even when trying to get a laptop rental, people look for a lot of different things when making their selections. A commonly sought after trait when finding the right laptop is a decent, if not good, battery life. But, let’s say that you’re not satisfied with a decent average battery life, which is typically anywhere from 4-6 hours. If you want the best laptop battery life, you generally have to look toward the notebook category of laptops. Since there are a metric ton of laptops that canRead More →

If you have ever jokingly asked anyone who has an iPhone 6/7 plus or a Samsung Galaxy S8 why they like owning a phone that is almost the size of a tablet, you may be pleased to know that you can now rephrase this joke for future occasions. Instead of saying that they own a phone that is the size of a tablet, you can now tell them that they own a phone that is the size of a laptop.

Microsoft’s new Surface Laptop is shaped up to be Microsoft’s equivalent of the MacBook Air. While I’m not going to say that the Surface Laptop is going to be a MacBook Air killer – because let’s face it, only Apple is capable of killing the MacBook Air – Microsoft seems to have temporarily addressed one of the main issues of the Surface Laptop – that issue being Windows 10S. Until December 31, 2017, anyone who purchases the Microsoft Surface Laptop will be allowed to upgrade from Windows 10 S to Windows 10 Pro for free. Starting next year, it’ll cost you 50$ if you wantRead More →

Microsoft has unveiled a new laptop which will start being shipped on June 15. This laptop at the moment is called the Surface Laptop. This name is not to be confused with previous Microsoft devices with extremely similar sounding names such as anything from the Microsoft Surface Pro series, or Microsoft’s previous iterations of laptops called Surface Books, or even the Microsoft Surface which was a table, no I did not mean to type tablet,  Microsoft actually sells multiple devices which are computer tables which started being sold back in 2008 and 2012.

The world is a lot more connected than it was twenty years ago. We can share vacation pictures with our family and friends while still being on the other side of the globe. This level of communication does not only apply to our personal lives though.  Most people like to be out and about doing things, but that means we may not always be on-site when work shows up on our doorstep. Alternatively, your profession may actually require you to travel. Either way, both educators and businesses have adapted to the connectivity already demonstrated in our lifestyles. Colleges have made aspects of classes online andRead More →

Virtual reality, or VR for short, is an experience which is becoming increasingly utilized by industries. Event planners have already added VR and augmented reality gear into their arsenals, and companies such as Volvo, Marriott, Merrel, and even McDonald’s have all tested the waters of VR technology. However, before you can incorporate VR into your next event you’ll need a device the headsets can run their experiences off of. Laptop rentals are a near-perfect way for event planners to utilize VR experiences due to their extreme portability and ease of setup. I say “near-perfect” because not all laptops are capable of running VR. There areRead More →

This is somewhat old news at this point, but MacBook Air rentals might soon become a thing of the past. It is no secret that the MacBook air is an aging design, and the updates brought to the 2016 model were nothing to cheer in the streets about. Unless Apple reveals some grand refresh of the MacBook Air model, MacBook Air’s may be devices of the past for two main reasons. 1.Discontinuation Apple discontinued the 11 Inch MacBook Air last year, which essentially shoots the entire Air lineup in the foot. The appeal of MacBook Air was always the lightweight, sleek design of the device,Read More →

It has only been a few months since the release of the HP Spectre x360, which claimed to be the thinnest laptop in the world at the time of its release. Since then, there have already been at least two notable claims to the name of “World’s thinnest laptop”. Before we begin I’m just going to let you know that neither of these two claims are held by an Apple product. Don’t get me wrong, MacBooks are still impressive, but these claimants are much thinner while also touting their own sleek designs. However, it should be noted that some of these laptops sacrificed a bitRead More →
