I am doing online study at UNI ( three subjects this semester) also doing diploma remedial massage.

I need a ultralight laptop or Surface Pro or tablet to study online, write essays, make notes on pdf doc, video recording etc. I need to have long lasting battery life please.

I have a three old boy sometime play my device and drop it….

How about this one?

https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/291133 ( Out of stock now……….)

Or maybe https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/291171 with keyboard?

Please note I do not need it for game or movie. I do not mind a second hand one.

I have also found this https://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/dubbo/other-tablets/silver-m… , however the seller only accept paypal rather than cash on pick up. He want me to send money via " family and friends" option on paypal. Not sure what that is…

Update:

I have bought dell due to long lasting battery —- it is not too dear, even if my kid break it, I will not be upset :)

    get the Dell, will be much easier to work on

    Surface Pro great device, but battery life is a problem for most

    nothing is kid proof lol

        keep any eye on it, stock gets replenished all the time, they just send a request to Malaysia to build them (not in a warehouse usually)
        that's what happened to me last time (I got 2)took 2 weeks to get it

    "Family and friends" option on Paypal means he pays no fees, and you have zero protection.

    Run away!

    • jiaqi518 on 07/02/2017 - 20:40

      Thanks.
