Other Windows Laptops to Consider
Asus Vivobook 14 for $650: There are only so many laptops under $800 actually worth buying. The Dell 14 Plus is a far better laptop, which costs the same amount right now and comes with a better screen and touchpad. The Vivobook 14 (6/10, WIRED Review), which has the Snapdragon X inside, frequently goes for less money, though, which is when you should buy it.
Razer Blade 14 for $2,300: I love the trend of compact gaming laptops, and there’s none quite as premium and portable as the Razer Blade 14 (8/10, WIRED Recommends). It’s not cheap, as just the RTX 5060 model starts at $2,300. But when it comes to elements like the build quality and display, you get what you pay for.
Lenovo IdeaPad 5i 16 for $650: Right now, the price is a bit higher than usual, but there’s really only one Windows laptop under $600 I’ve tested recently that I’d recommend. The IdeaPad 5i (6/10, WIRED Review) isn’t a great laptop in and of itself, but it just might be the best Windows laptop you can buy for $550. Make sure you pick it up at that price.
Lenovo LOQ 15 for $970: The LOQ 15 (8/10, WIRED Recommends) is one of the only gaming laptops under $1,000 that come with an RTX 5060 graphics card. While I wish the display were a more modern 16:10 aspect ratio instead of 16:9, nearly everything else about this powerful, chunky gaming laptop is a win.
Acer Swift 16 AI for $800: This Acer Swift 16 AI (8/10, WIRED Recommends) is one of those laptops that has dramatically increased in value with its recent price drop. It’s not the most attractive or trim machine in the world, but the solid battery life, high display quality, and a terabyte of storage balance it out for this price.
