If the 12in MacBook design hadn't been axed, it could have developed into something like this. Huawei's ultra-thin and light laptop is an achievement.

It's got issues, but Dell's performance to price ratio is what sets it apart from pricier rivals. It's a decent gaming machine with a weird design.

Looking for a budget laptop? Some aspects of the 311 look dated, but at this price point it's hard to complain about its overall well considered spec.

With its 4K OLED screen, striking slim and lightweight design, is this one of the best laptops available to buy right now?

This 17-inch laptop is designed for portability - a rare thing at this scale. It's ultra-light given its screen, but does that mean compromise?

The 2020 Swift 3 brings a 3:2 aspect ratio screen, while squeezing the bezel compared to its predecessor. Here's our first impressions.

It's rare to find a lightweight 17in laptop that's suited to day-to-day working. LG, however, has bucked the trend with this super big-screen offering

A true two-screen laptop that's often successful for its screen, keyboard and raw power. The second screen isn't perfect though, and it's pricey.
