A travel blogger's guide to choosing the best laptop for the job
A travel blogger's most dependable companion is their laptop. Writing, editing, publishing, emailing, and other tasks are done on this device. Constant traveling requires one to keep a device that's powerful, lightweight, and fast. Ahmed Nashaat, a Los Angeles-based travel blogger, shares a few tips on how to pick the best laptop for the job.
It's important to determine the necessity as one of the topics most travel bloggers preach is frugality. Going beyond the necessary would mean excess. Therefore, it would be best to identify the tasks one would do using their laptop and then look for a unit. Decide on a platform. Not everyone is pleased with the performance of Windows, and not everyone is a fan of the Mac OS. At present, three operating systems exist in the market: Windows, Mac OS, and Chrome OS. See the rundown of the three on this blog.
The size and the weight of the laptop matter greatly. Apple makes laptops that are compact yet powerful. Most travel bloggers who seek to keep their content and other files safe from hackers opt to use MacBook Pro or Air. These don't only work better and faster than others in the price range but also offer security better than the open-source OS.
