Which computer is best for BCA students and what should have features?

The languages you'll study in BCA doesn't require a high-end computer or laptop. You'll study languages like C, C+, Java and few others depending on the university. All these languages can operate on a system with minimal requirements on 1GB RAM, 100GB HDD too. I'd highly recommend you to go for a laptop with at least 8GB RAM, i7 8th gen processor & 1TB HDD. The reason is that if in case in future you do some development courses like Android Development, Game Development or any other software development. These processes requires a high-end machine for smooth functioning. I know this kind of machine will require a good budget but it'll worth it and definitely save your time in future. Personally, I had bought a 4GB RAM, i3 3gen processor laptop during my BCA which was really very slow, when I started working on Android Development. I had to reinvest my money to get a new laptop with higher specifications. Also, go for a laptop rather than a computer, so you can work according to your time and not get affected from power cut-offs. I am using a Lenovo laptop, and I am using it for 1012 hours a day for development purposes for past 3 years and it has performed really well, although the battery backup has been reduced from 3 hours to 1 hour but otherwise it never required any kind of service.
