      You can buy a good computer for about $300 that will work as a solid, reliable system. While I don’t have a specific model to recommend, I recently purchased an HP laptop for $299 (before tax) at Best Buy so she can run Quickbooks, check email, run basic Microsoft Office applications, and Facebook.

      I would avoid buying a Chromebook as they are not fully compatible with MS Windows applications.

      Price is right, for word processing we have Google Docs and I see Microsoft has a version of Word for Chromebooks now.

      Ease of use is high since you don’t have to wait or deal with Windows Update.

          Laptops don’t have fixed prices.

          Have a look at https://www.google.com/search?q=back+to+school+laptop+deals+2021 to get an idea. Then pick a few models you prefer from shops you prefer and tell what those are. Then maybe we can tell what we would choose and why.

          A few remarks:
          – Ask the school what they recommend, for OS and specifications.
          – Usually, studying from home involves more than word processing.
          – Does your budget include a printer and a headset? Does your child need those?
          – Consider buying a refurbished machine in stead of a new one. Usually, it’s more value for money. Like a second-hand car is a good choice for many.
          – Consider buying in a local shop for personal advice and support, in stead of some unknown webshop.

      Acer Aspire 5, AMD Rayzen 3 will be the best choice for this price range because it comes with a long battery life gorgeous performance. You should check out the review on Amazon if you have a doubt about it.

      I think the Lenovo Ideapad S145-15API laptop was a great choice for a child. It has a large screen and a fast processor that will come in handy in studying.
