It doesn’t have 5G or a better camera, but it has better performance and will last up to five years with software updates, whereas the others will last about three.įor budgets up to £800, the £799 OnePlus 8 Pro is arguably the best Android phone released this year, and the £729 iPhone 11 gets you Face ID, a better screen and camera, and longer battery life than the SE.
If you want 5G, the OnePlus Nord, at about £379, is a true bargain, with a good camera and great performance, battery life and screen.Īlternatively, Apple’s cracking iPhone SE 2020 at £419 is equally excellent value. The good news is that you don’t have to spend £1,000 to get a really great one.įor budgets under £450, the Google Pixel 4a is one of the best phones of the year at £349, with a top camera and great software including the excellent auto-transcribing Google Recorder app. The latter typically costs £999 but is available with a variable student discount in the region of 5-10%, and is on offer with a free pair of AirPods earbuds. If you have a bigger budget, and want a better screen, keyboard, trackpad, speakers and performance, particularly for video conferencing, my picks for laptops under £1,000 are the excellent Microsoft Surface Laptop 3 at £899 with student discount, or the latest Apple MacBook Air.

Make sure it’s at least 1080p resolution. I recommend a 13-inch to 14-inch screen as a happy medium. Screen size is up to you – smaller is better for carrying around, larger better if it’s fixed to a desk. They may be cheap and come with a fair bit of storage, but they’ll be slow. Don’t be tempted to buy a laptop with a traditional magnetic hard drive. Look for the latest 10th-generation Intel i5 or i7 processors, at least 8GB of RAM, and 128GB or more of SSD storage.
