Practical technology for learning environments
SmartGear NZ supplies pre-owned Chromebooks, laptops, iPads and other devices for schools, education providers, families and organisations looking for practical technology at a lower cost than buying new.
Chromebooks and laptops
We regularly work with Chromebook and laptop models suited to web-based learning, classroom use and general study. Tell us the applications, browser requirements, minimum specifications and quantity you need so we can help narrow down suitable models.
Software and update support matters
For education devices, model age alone does not tell the whole story. ChromeOS support, Windows requirements, browser compatibility and the software your students use should be checked before purchasing a larger quantity.
Bulk and repeat requirements
Schools and organisations can ask about multiple-device purchases, mixed or consistent model lots, chargers and available accessories. Stock changes frequently, so larger requirements are assessed against current and upcoming availability.
Individual students and families
If you need a single device for school or study, tell us the school requirements and budget. We can help identify suitable options from current stock rather than simply recommending the most expensive device.
WINZ quotes
SmartGear can prepare device quotes for eligible Work and Income customers. Use our WINZ Quotes page and provide the device or school requirements where available.
Existing device fleets
Organisations replacing older equipment can also ask us about trade-in or buyback assessment for supported device lots. Repair options may be available where keeping existing devices in service is practical.
