Best 2 in 1 Laptop

HP Spectre x360

Gorgeous, Slim and Speedy, that may be your first impressions when you see HP's Spectre x360. Featuring one of Intel's new 7th-Gen Core i5 or i7 CPUs (Kaby Lake), this 2 in 1 offers top-notch performance and an impressive battery life in a stunningly thin chassis. The 13.3-inch glossy full-HD touch display with super-thin side bezels complement to the Spectre's gorgeous design.  HP's Spectre x360 is pretty much everything you want in a premium laptop!


Best Budget Windows 10 Laptop

Lenovo Ideapad 100S



The Lenovo Ideapad 100S is a lightweight, affordable and long-lasting Windows 10-powered laptop. Like any other system in this price range, the 11.6-inch 100S with its Intel Atom Z3735F CPU and 2GB RAM  (non-expandable) offers a very modest performance that's good enough for daily tasks such as web surfing, editing documents, viewing movies and multitasking. For a laptop this inexpensive, the Lenovo Ideapad 100S looks pretty decent with a  classy matte finish and is available in red, blue, gray or white. This laptop is said to offer amazing typing experience.

Best Apple Laptop

Apple MacBook Pro 13-inch (2016)



This year's entry-level, 13-inch MacBook Pro doesn't have the Touch Bar everyone is talking about, but that doesn't make it a laptop not worth buying. Apple opted for a 6th-generation Core i5 CPU on the 13-inch MacBook Pro running at 2-GHz instead of the new Kaby-Lake CPUs every other manufacturer is going for, this year's MacBook. You also get 8GB of RAM, 256GB of flash storage and Intel Iris Graphics 540. The result is a faster MacBook than the previous Pro but not as speedy as its competitors.

Best MacBook Alternative

Dell XPS 13



Dell XPS 13 features a vibrant and sharp 13-inch screen into an 11-inch chassis, making it one of the most compact ultraportable ever. Dell has raised the bar even higher with a 7th-generation Intel Core CPU update to its XPS 13 making it the top MacBook alternative. The Thunderbolt 3 port will be very useful for high-end video editors, as will the high-resolution display. There's also a headphone jack and SD card reader. Hear it Apple?

Best Chromebook

Acer Chromebook 14



Chromebooks have traditionally been associated with the education market and budget shoppers, due to its web-centric OS. But with the Google for Work initiative, Google has given rise to a new class of Chromebooks intended for the business scenario. Part of this new group, the Acer Chromebook 14 for Work, packs in some serious IT management features such as a 1080p display, a 6th Generation Core i5 CPU, 8GB of RAM and 32GB of local storage.Plus, it comes with some helpful tools for companies such as TPM, SAML support, and remote configuration through the web-based Chrome Device Management panel.
