How we score

Every review ends with a score out of 10 that weighs performance, display, battery life, build quality and value for money against laptops at a similar price.

Who we are

Laptop buying questions, answered

It depends on your course and budget. For most students, a light laptop with 16GB of RAM, a 512GB SSD and 10+ hours of real battery life is the sweet spot. Check our student buying guide for current picks at every price.

16GB is the sweet spot for most users — enough for heavy multitasking, dozens of browser tabs and light creative work. Choose 32GB for serious video editing, 3D work, local AI tools or high-end gaming; 8GB is only fine for very basic use.

Yes. Gaming laptops run coursework and office apps with ease. The trade-offs are weight, shorter battery life and louder fans, so if you rarely game, a thin-and-light laptop is usually the better everyday choice.

An SSD, for speed and reliability. It boots and opens apps many times faster, uses less power and copes better with bumps. Get at least 512GB and use cloud or an external drive for extra storage.

Back-to-school sales (roughly July to September) and Black Friday / Cyber Monday in late November usually bring the biggest discounts. New model launches are also a good moment to buy the previous generation for less.
