Best Ultrabook: top thin and light laptops that won't weigh you down Dell's revamped XPS 13 has a nearly borderless display and a very small body for a 13-inch laptop, plus the latest Intel CPUs. Upgrades can get expensive; a touchscreen isn't included by default; the boost from the new CPU is minimal.

This new Dell XPS 13 is the first great laptop of 2015, but it owes that title more to a smart design revamp than Intel's new processors.

Lenovo Miix 720 hands-on review which features a Quad HD+ screen and Intel's latest Kaby Lake processor. Best 2-in-1 laptops 2017. Lenovo Miix 510 only Full HD+ screen.

Lenovo introduces Miix 510 with lesser specs than Miix 700. I think this also has a smaller battery than the Mixx 700 if i remember correctly. The other thing is, the 510 is a 16:10 display vs the SP4(and Mixx 7x0 line), which has a 3:2 aspect ratio display. It could be an advantage depending on your preference.

Lenovo IdeaPad 100S Besides that, the company introduced a new IdeaPad called the 100S. It comes in two variants – 11-inch and 14-inch. The 11-inch model runs on an Intel Atom Z3735F quad-core processor with 2GB of RAM and 32GB of EMMC internal storage. It features an 11.6-inch HD screen and Dolby-certified stereo speakers.

It weighs 1kg and comes in three colour options – blue, silver and red. Boasting up to seven hours of battery life, the Lenovo IdeaPad 100S is now available for a retail price of RM799. On the other hand, the 14-inch model runs on an Intel Celeron N3050 processor with 4GB of RAM and 128GB of SSD storage. It features Intel's integrated graphics and comes complete with a stereo speaker system certified by Dolby. The laptop weighs 1.5kg and will be available in silver

Dell XPS 13 (2016) Now that Intel's sixth-generation Skylake processors are out, manufacturers have begun to roll out the latest convertibles and ultrabooks packed with the latest hardware in full force. Thanks to Skylake's improved power efficiency, this means faster machines that last for even longer, all wrapped up in slimmer and more attractive packages than before.

This also means that the playing field is remarkably similar, with the vast majority of ultrabooks sporting the same processors and similar memory and storage configurations.

APPLE MACBOOK AIR Phenomenal battery life, over 12 hours in most conditions. Respectable performance thanks to Intel's new Haswell processor. Same .68-inch thick, super light-chassis. Best keyboard and trackpad out there.

Better networking performance with 802.11ac support. No Retina display yet. For some, lack of Ethernet port or optical drive may be a deal-breaker. Gets expensive once you max out the SSD and RAM.

Surface 4 to Fight iPad with Two Versions Microsoft's Surface 2-in-1 has long been billed as the tablet that can replace your laptop, but the hybrid could soon take aim at traditional slates as well. The company's purported Surface 4 is rumored to launch next year in two variations: a larger model for maximum productivity, and a palm-sized version built to replace your iPad mini.

Christian Today reports that the next Surface will be available as a 13 to 14-inch device, as well as a smaller 8-inch version that could compete with mainstream Android and iOS tablets. There's no word on potential specs, but we expect the new devices to have at least the Surface Pro 3's 2160 x 1440 screen resolution, as well as Intel's new Core M processors, which are built for small devices.
