What's up guys..
we are living at a time where everything is going so fast, especially with technology and as any other product laptops keeps developing fast and coming out even faster, some from strange brands and others from big companies but which ones would you pick up best?
well..these five, in no particular order.
1- LG GRAM 2018
With the 13 inch model coming in at just 965 grams, this laptop is insanely light but also surprisingly robust.
Looking back at the 2017 model, LG did exactly what they had to do, added thunderbolt 3 and changed the location of the camera making it the perfect laptop.
With a quad-core 8th generation Intel processor, increased battery capacity thx to the 72 hours battery and a fingerprint sensor that's been moved into the On/Off button this might be the laptop to beat for Ultra portables.
2- Acer Swift 7
Now if you have a little less space in your backpack but u can take a bit more weight at just 8.98 millimeters, the Acer swift 7 is insanely thin.
looking at it from the side it almost disappears but somehow they kept the keyboard feel excellent with a surprisingly long travel.
The only thing you are compromising here is the 7th generation Intel processor , seems that dual-core is still alive in super thin Ultra-books but you could be forgiven for trading power for looks like this.
3- Dell XPS 13
If you can't sacrifice power, take a look at this laptop from Dell, the new XPS 13.
This one doesn't only have 24% less volume but a staggering 80% more power, it features an Intel 8th generation quad-core processor that they've been able to merge with some clever cooling system for longer turbo boosts.
The build quality remains impeccable, it uses the same keyboard as the outgoing model which is a good thing and with a 4K HDR option available for the screen, it's a treat for your eyes.
CPU: 1.8GHz Intel Core i7-8550U (quad-core, 8MB cache, up to 4.0GHz)
Graphics: Intel UHD Graphics 620
RAM: 16GB DDR3 (2,133MHz)
Screen: 13.3-inch, Ultra HD (3,840 x 2,160) UltraSharp InfinityEdge touch display
Storage: 1TB PCIe SSD
Ports: 2 x Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C), 1 x USB-C 3.1, micro SD card reader, headset jack
Connectivity: Killer 1435 802.11ac Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.1
Camera: Widescreen HD (720p) webcam with 4 array digital microphones
Weight: 2.67 pounds (1.21kg)
Size: 11.9 x 7.8 x 0.3-0.46 inches (3.02 x 1.99 x 0.78-1.16cm; W x D x H)
4- Dell XPS 15:
Moving on to the Dell XPS 15, this is a two-in-one laptop with alot of cool things about it.
It doesn't only have an Intel 8th generation processor, but built into the CPU package, it has RX Vega and graphics which means a massive increase in graphical performance making it perfect for things like Photoshop and light video editing.
It's not the thinnest laptop we've ever seen but it's still respectable at 16 millimeters and to help achieve this thinness with two-in-one folding functionality Dell actually developed a new type of keyboard switch which they're calling Maglev .
this allows a surprisingly clicky feel in what would otherwise be a very restrictive amount of space.
Continuing with the trend of magnets, there is also a magnetic pen for people who are into that.
5- Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Carbon:
Now this isn't really a new laptop but we feel like the new model steps it up with a lot of nice-to-haves.these additions include " Windows hello facial recognition" , up to a 1440p panel with HDR support, although unfortunately touch is only available on the 1080p model and a quad-core Intel processor and your fingers actually get treated to a luxurious 1.8 Millimeters of key travel with excellent tactile feel as well as a whole heap of I/O to prevent you from the embarrassment of forgetting the right dongle for your meeting and this is all wrapped up in a premium feeling chassis that i imagine will keep going for years
