The best laptops: Premium laptops, budget laptops, 2-in-1s, and more

2020 looks like it’s going to be a great year for laptops. We have AMD and Intel battling it out on the CPU front, new mobile discrete GPUs enabling thinner, lighter, and faster gaming laptops, and battery life that won’t quit. Check out the latest reports from CES below, and stay tuned for new models we bring in for review. 

Latest laptop news and reviews

We just returned from CES with a slew of mobile news, and we reviewed HP’s Elite Dragonfly, a corporate laptop that’s not boring. Here’s the latest: 

• AMD’s Ryzen 4000 mobile CPUs announced at CES will likely be the biggest laptop news of 2020. After years of underwhelming chips, the new generation will offer 7nm efficiency and more cores. With 100 laptops ready to rock the new CPUs, the industry is clearly behind AMD on this one. What we don’t know is how battery life will play out, as that’s been an Achilles heel for AMD in the past. Read our full story. 
• We also saw one of the first 5G laptops at CES, Dell’s Latitude 9510. Dell even provided a teardown to show the challenge of fitting all the antennas 5G requires into a mobile PC. Most likely the first 5G laptops will be on the higher end, where users can absorb the design cost. (The rest of us can hope for affordable dongles.) Read our full story.
