Best Buy

Asus ZenBook S 13 OLED

CPU: Intel Core i7-1355U | RAM: 32GB LPDDR5 | Graphics: Intel Iris Xe | Storage: 1TB SSD | Display: 13.3-inch OLED | Resolution: 2,880 x 1,800 | Refresh rate: 60Hz | Battery: Up to 10 hours | Weight: 2.2 pounds

Best for: Everyday web browsing, office use and watching movies on a brilliant, sharp screen.

The Asus ZenBook S 13 OLED has a thirteenth-generation Intel processor and comes with a boatload of memory—32GB of DDR5 RAM—making it perfect for heavy multi-tasking and having as many browser tabs open as you want. To top it all off, it has a 2.8K OLED screen, so images look ultra crisp with inky blacks and vibrant colors. That makes this laptop the perfect tool for work, entertainment and content creation.

This laptop doesn’t let you down elsewhere, either. Battery life gets you an average of 10 hours of mixed use, and at only two pounds, this laptop is super light and portable.

Pros:

Great performanceCrisp, vivid OLED displayExtremely light

Cons:

Lacks an onboard GPU for gaming

Lenovo

Lenovo Legion Pro 5

CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 7745HX | RAM: 16GB DDR5 | Graphics: Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 | Storage: 1TB SSD | Display: 16-inch touchscreen | Resolution: 2560 x 1600 | Refresh rate: 165Hz | Battery: Up to 8 hours | Weight: 5.45 pounds

Best for: Gaming at high detail and high frame rates.

The latest generation of the Lenovo Legion Pro 5 is a lesson in performance and efficiency. It has enough power to drive high-fidelity gaming at 1600p resolution, all while offering impressive battery life for a gaming laptop. It won’t outlast true efficiency kings like Apple’s MacBooks, but for a gaming machine? This laptop goes and goes, and goes hard. It has Ryzen 7 CPU from AMD featuring the latest Zen 4 cores on a tiny 5nm process node, and with eight cores and a high clock speed, there’s nothing this chip can’t handle. Paired with an Nvidia RTX 4060, and it can not only pump out high frame rates in any game you choose, but it supports both DLSS and its new DLSS 3 frame generation feature, which helps mid-range GPUs punch well above their weight in compatible games.

It has a gorgeous 16-inch display with a high refresh rate, above-average brightness and resolution, making it look crisp and vibrant. It’s a touchscreen too, so in compatible games or apps you can enjoy that additional input option. You still won’t get a ton of battery life when gaming at high detail settings, but if you lower the screen brightness and limit the frame rate in casual games, you should be able to get a few hours of of this machine without difficulty. It also comes at an affordable price, making this a gaming laptop that almost anyone can enjoy.

Pros:

Excellent gaming performance, with DLSS 3 supportFast and responsive displayStorage and RAM are fast and upgradeable

Cons:

HeavyBattery life could be better

CPU: Intel Core i7-1355U | RAM: 16GB LPDDR5 | Graphics: Intel Iris Xe | Storage: 1TB | Display: 14-inch | Resolution: 1,920 x 1,200 | Refresh rate: 60Hz | Battery: Up to 11 hours | Weight: 3.5 pounds

Best for: Budget buyers looking for a capable performer for under $1,000.

This Dell Inspiron 14 has everything you need for a whole range of simple tasks, whether it’s office work, web browsing and research or even casual gaming. It has thirteenth-generation Intel Core i7 processor with 10 cores. That gives it excellent multi-tasking performance if you’re a heavy web browser or want to run a few different apps at once. The onboard graphics can run older and casual games. And with 16GB of fast memory and a 1TB SSD, the system is snappy and responsive.

At just 3.5 pounds, you can take this light, compact laptop just about anywhere without weighing you down. The battery lasts about 11 hours, which is more than enough for a workday and then some. The 16:10 aspect ratio display makes it more comfortable reading longer documents and web pages, too.

Pros:

Good performance at an affordable priceAttractive 1080p displayLots of fast storage space

Cons:

No dedicated GPU for gaming

CPU: Intel Core i7-1360P | RAM: 16GB LPDDR5 | Graphics: Intel Iris Xe | Storage: 512GB SSD | Display: 14-inch OLED touchscreen | Resolution: 2,880 x 1,800 | Refresh rate: 60Hz | Battery: Up to 11 hours | Weight: 3.1 pounds

Best for: Laptop and tablet work—and casual gaming, too.

The Lenovo Yoga 9i 14-inch delivers almost everything you’d want in a modern 2-in-1 laptop, with solid performance from its internal hardware and above average battery life. The Intel Core i7-1360p at the heart of this machine delivers excellent performance in both lightweight and more demanding tasks, partly thanks to its 16GB of high-speed LPDDR5 memory, which offers much greater bandwidth than previous generation 2-in-1s. It lacks dedicated graphics, so this isn’t a 2-in-1 for gamers, but the Intel Iris Xe is enough for older indie and esports games.

The responsive 2.8K touchscreen OLED display produces crisp images, and its taller 16:10 aspect ratio makes it great for browsing longer documents or websites. Like all OLED displays, the Yoga 9i’s screen showcases inky blacks and vibrant colors that make every image, movie and TV show look stellar. Adjust this model to use it in multiple ways, thanks to its 360-degree hinge, which lets you use it as a tablet. It’s heavier than detachable tablets at just over 3 pounds, but it’s still one of the lightest laptops for a 2-in-1 of this size.

Pros:

Powerful internal hardwareVibrant OLED 2K display16:10 aspect ratio

Cons:

Lacks high-end graphics for gaming

CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 7735HS | RAM: 16GB DDR5 | Graphics: Nvidia RTX 4050 | Storage: 512GB SSD | Display: 14-inch | Resolution: 2560 x 1440 | Refresh rate: 165Hz | Battery: Up to 10 hours | Weight: 3.64 pounds

Best for: Gaming on the move.

Gaming laptops are typically heavy, but they don’t have to be. The latest generation Asus ROG Zephyrus G14 is both high-performance and pretty lightweight for a gaming machine, weighing in at just over 3.5 pounds. That makes it great for lugging around at college, only to whip it out when you fancy a game. Its battery will last all day, too, which you won’t find on almost any other gaming laptops. You’ll be able to play most games at high detail with the Ryzen 7 CPU and RTX 4050 graphics, especially in games that support DLSS 3 frame generation. However, this isn’t a high-end gaming machine, so while it will make your games look great at 1440p, you might need to lower some settings to maintain high frame rates in AAA titles.

If you can get a high frame rate, you’ll really appreciate how smooth this gaming laptop looks, too. It has a 165Hz refresh rate display which will make your games look buttery smooth. It uses Mini-LEDs, so it gets very bright, helping HDR elements pop off the screen and making colors rich and vivid. It also has plenty of fast storage space, and a wide selection of ports, including USB-A, USB-C (one of which is USB4) and HDMI 2.1. It also has an SD card reader and a headphone jack.

Pros:

Bright and fast displayExtremely portable for a gaming machineLong battery life

Cons:

Lacks high-end performance

CPU: Intel Core i9-13900H | RAM: 32GB LPDDR5 | Graphics: Nvidia GeForce RTX 4070 | Storage: 1TB | Display: 17-inch touchscreen | Resolution: 3,840 x 2,400 | Refresh rate: 60Hz | Battery: Up to 10 hours | Weight: 5.1 pounds

Best for: Getting a gorgeous picture on a 17-inch display.

The Dell XPS 17 bumps the processor to a thirteenth-generation Intel Core i9, memory from 16GB to 32GB, adds a step-up graphics card and doubles the storage to 1TB. This boosts make the Dell 17 up to almost any computing task. Its sleek design looks clean and professional, and though it’s not a light laptop, it’s not as heavy as some of the bulky gaming laptops.

Where this laptop really distinguishes itself is with its 4K touchscreen display. At 17-inches, the display has lots of screen space for multiple windows if you’re multi-tasking. It’s also very bright, hitting as high as 500 nits in HDR movies and games. The battery can run for up to 10 hours of mixed use.

Pros:

Excellent performanceBig and bright 4K displayStrong battery life

Cons:

ExpensiveNot very portable

Best Buy

Apple MacBook Air 13-Inch (M2)

CPU: Apple M2 | RAM: 8GB | Graphics: Apple M2 GPU | Storage: 512GB SSD | Display: 13.3-inch | Resolution: 2,560 x 1,664 | Refresh rate: 60Hz | Battery: Up to 18 hours | Weight: 2.7 pounds

Best for: Completing lightweight tasks at blazing speed, or for Apple fans who want to stay in the ecosystem.

The Apple MacBook Air 13-inch (M2) builds on the success of the M1 generation Air with greater performance and a bright 500 nits, 2K display. This model’s aluminum body design presents as a classy and understated look. While you can use this laptop for everyday tasks including image and video editing, it is best suited to more lightweight tasks as the M2 can get warm during extensive, heavy use.

At just 2.7 pounds, the lightweight MacBook Air 13-inch (M2) is the best MacBook available for use on the go. This isn’t the least expensive configuration of the MacBook Air 13-inch (M2), but the 256GB version ($300 less) has a slower SSD, making it less easy to recommend.

Pros:

One of the most affordable M2 MacBooks you can buyTerrific performanceMore than a full work-day of battery life

Cons:

Can get warm during high-computing tasks

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 7520U | RAM: 8GB LPDDR5 | Graphics: AMD Radeon | Storage: 512GB SSD | Display: 15.6-inch touchscreen | Resolution: 1920 x 1080 | Refresh rate: 60Hz | Battery: Up to 11 hours | Weight: 3.9 pounds

Best for: The first laptop you give to your kids.

For parents searching for their kids’ first laptop, take a look at the Acer Aspire 3. It’s a relatively lightweight and portable design, with impressive performance from its new-generation Ryzen 5 CPU and 8GB of fast DDR5 memory. This is backed up by 512GB of fast SSD storage, so there’s enough space there for all your child’s applications, games, files and folders. The 15.6-inch touchscreen is only 1080p, but that helps keep the battery life high, and its touchscreen allows for additional interaction options. It’s not a fold-flat 2-in-1, though, so you can’t use this as a tablet.

The battery lasts all day for up to 11 hours of mixed usage, so you won’t always be looking for a charge point or power bank. It charges fast when you do plug it in, though, and it offers excellent connectivity. There’s USB-C and USB-A, with a headphone and microphone jack, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi 6 support, and a built-in webcam to help them stay in touch with friends and family.

Pros:

Great performanceLots of storage spaceDecent battery life

Cons:

A little heavy for younger children
