Welcome to Engadget’s back to school guide! Today, we’ve got a wide array of laptop recommendations. Head to the back to school hub to see the rest of the product guides as we add them throughout the month. Be sure to keep checking back; in early September, we’ll be giving away a ton of gear.

DNP Engadget's back to school guide 2013 laptops

If you were expecting us to recommend a MacBook Air or a Samsung ATIV Book 9, we’ll kindly refer you to our back to school Ultrabook buying guide. But while an ultraportable will suffice for web surfing, Netflixing and the occasional all-nighter, some students will still crave a little more. A little extra storage space, perhaps, or a discrete GPU to pull off smoother gaming. Or maybe y’all just want something cheaper than your standard Ultrabook. No shame in that either. Whatever it is, we’ve got a handful of choices for each budget.

8″ Tablets Expected To Be The Happy Middle Between 7″ And 10.1″ Offerings

8 Tablets Expected To Be The Happy Middle Between 7 And 10.1 OfferingsA few years ago we got tablets either in the 7” variety or the 10.1” variety from Android manufacturers, while Apple has stuck with its 9.7” display for the iPad, a 7.9” for its iPad mini, but it seems that 8” tablets could be the happy middle between 7” and 10.1” offerings, according to Taiwan manufacturers of tablets who spoke to DigiTimes. According to them, customers are starting to favor the 8” size as it is more usable compared to 7” tablets due to its slightly larger screen, and because it is smaller, it is also cheaper than its 10.1” counterparts.

According to their report, more manufacturers are starting to hop aboard the 8” bandwagon as well, and DigiTimes has named companies such as HP, LG, Lenovo, and ASUS who are expected to follow suit. Assuming that their report on the trends is accurate, it would certainly contradict rumors of Apple and Samsung who are reportedly looking to build 12” tablets which would be going in the other direction, but what do you guys think? Is an 8” tablet a happy middle between a 7” and a 10.1” tablet? In any case we guess we will just have to wait and see if the trend proves to be true.

    HP Slate 8 Pro Spotted In GFXBench Benchmark

    HP Slate 8 Pro Spotted In GFXBench BenchmarkEarlier this morning, we did talk about a certain HP Bodhi device that ran on the Android mobile operating system, and it seems that additional information on said tablet has been revealed later in the day. The very same device has popped up in yet another leaked benchmark, although this time around, it would be on the GFXBench website, where it has dropped the Bodhi name and stuck with the HP Slate 8 Pro name instead. The HP Slate 8 Pro will of course, run on Android, while sporting an 8” display (hence its name) that comes with a 1,600 x 1,200 pixel resolution display.

    The naming convention does make plenty of sense. After all, the HP Slate 7 did happen to be a 7-inch Android tablet, while the HP Slate 21 did appear is an all-in-one Android desktop that boasts of a 21.5-inch touchscreen display. Just as this morning’s leaked benchmark, results from the GFXBench benchmark also point to a possible NVIDIA Tegra 4 ARM Cortex-A15 quad-core processor with Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean in tow. Do you think that HP will be able to be successful in the tablet business, especially one where so many manufacturers have jumped aboard the Android bandwagon already? Only time will tell, so stay tuned!

    Engadget's back to school guide 2013 tablets

    Like reality show contestants who reinvent themselves as America’s next top chef / model / crab fisher, tablets are entering a renaissance. In fact, while you probably couldn’t complete your high-school essays on an iPad or Nexus 7, a slew of optional keyboards are turning slates into capable productivity devices. And as they increase in processing power, tablets are ever thinner and lighter, making it a breeze to schlep ’em around campus in your book bag. So, where to start? How about below, where we’ve selected nine devices that’ll keep you busy before, during and after class.
