Hi everyone! I was wondering if anyone can help me decide. I'm in need of a lighter laptop for writing notes, assignments, doing light research, maybe watching some lectures. I have a PC and also a windows laptop so I don't need amazing specs, I just need it to be light because my laptop is so heavy it hurts my back lol and also able to handle some light work. I saw some on sales and here are some options but I don't know if they're good enough.

Other suggestions would also be helpful. My maximum would probably be $400 CAD tbh. I don't want to spend a lot since this is mainly for doing coursework on the go. Thank you 😊

Depends on what you mean with assignments and light research. Do you need specific Windows applications for these assignments or just a office suite and a browser? Also if you get one from these three get the Lenovo 3i since it has the n100.

Thank you! And apologies I should've been more specific, I honestly just need access to browser since I'd just need access to research databases and I write my notes & assignment drafts on Google docs anyway. This would be for doing work on campus and commute, since at home I would use my windows PC.
