Abstract

Laptops have the potential to increase educational productivity in Indonesia. For example, students at the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences (MIPA) at the University of Mataram now feel involved. However, the decision to choose the right laptop according to the needs of students is difficult. The research population used was active students from the class of 2020-2023, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences (MIPA), University of Mataram. This research aims to determine the best laptop selection based on alternative laptop brands, namely Asus Vivobook, Acer 3, HP 14S, Dell Vostro 14, and Lenovo IP1. Further criteria include price, processor, Random Access Memory (RAM), Read Only Memory (ROM), and screen size. The methods used are the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) methods. The research results show that the first priority position is filled by the Asus Vivobook with a weight of 0,26 for the AHP method and the Lenovo IP1 with a weight of 0,898 for the SAW method. The results of priority comparisons using euclidean distance, it was found that the most optimal method for deciding on the best laptop was the AHP method. The AHP method has a value closest to 0 (zero), namely with an average value of 0,127, while the SAW method has an average value of 0,798.
