Aspire Lite: everyday study workhorse

A straightforward 15.6-inch laptop for notes, research and streaming. Priced at AED 2,499. 

  • 13th Gen Intel Core i7
  • 16 GB DDR5, 1 TB SSD
  • 15.6-inch Full HD ComfyView display
  • Around 10 hours of battery
  • Windows 11 with a dedicated Copilot key 

If you need a solid machine for classes and everyday tasks, this covers the basics without fuss. The spec gives plenty of headroom for multitasking, and the Copilot key puts Microsoft’s AI tools one tap away for quick summaries and drafts during study sessions. 

Aspire 14 AI: Copilot+ PC for students

The Aspire 14 AI steps up to Intel Core Ultra and features on-device AI. The price is AED 3,399 in the UAE. 

  • Intel Core Ultra 7 with AI Boost NPU
  • Up to 47 TOPS AI performance
  • 14-inch 1920 x 1200 touchscreen
  • 16 GB LPDDR5X, 1 TB SSD
  • Microsoft Pluton, Copilot key
  • Up to 65 Wh battery and up to 25 hours of runtime
  • Online and offline AI features 

This is the most student-friendly AI setup in the range. You get responsive local AI for note-taking and content tasks, plus a touch display for apps that benefit from direct input. The long battery claim is ambitious, but paired with the Copilot+ workflows and security from Pluton, it’s built for long days on campus. 

Nitro V 15: study by day, game by night

A gaming-capable 15.6-inch laptop that can also handle editing and content creation. UAE price is AED 4,999. 

  • 13th Gen Intel Core i9
  • NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060
  • 15.6-inch Full HD IPS, 165 Hz
  • 16 GB DDR4, 1 TB storage
  • DLSS 4 support
  • Backlit keyboard, Copilot integration 

If you’re balancing coursework with esports or video projects, this checks the right boxes. The 165 Hz panel keeps motion smooth, while RTX 5060 and DLSS 4 push higher frame rates in supported titles. It’s positioned as both a productivity system and a gaming machine for students who need both. 

Predator Helios Neo 16: creator-grade performance

Flagship power for advanced creators and competitive gamers. Priced at AED 8,999. 

  • Intel Core Ultra 9 with AI Boost
  • NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070

  • 16-inch 2560 x 1600, 240 Hz
  • Killer Wi-Fi 6E, 5 GbE
  • RGB keyboard, Predator Sense, Copilot key 

This is the high-end choice for heavy video editing, 3D work and high-FPS gaming. The 240 Hz 16-inch display and wired 5 GbE option target both low-latency play and fast transfers. It’s overkill for basic coursework, but a serious step-up for students who also create.
