While its display could be nicer, Alienware's first budget gaming laptop feels like a welcome reprieve when practically all tech is more expensive.

Primate Labs is releasing Geekbench 7, the latest generation of its popular benchmarking tool. Geekbench 7 features new video and audio encoding / decoding tests, a redesigned multi-core test, and larger, more demanding datasets for CPUs and GPUs to crunch through. It otherwise looks and acts just like Geekbench 6, and a Pro license will […]

RAMageddon has claimed yet another victim, with Framework now announcing a "major and unfortunate" pricing update for its upcoming premium laptop - which also impacts folks who preordered it. Memory configurations for the Laptop 13 Pro have been adjusted after Framework says it received cost updates from its memory supplier that "are more than double […]

Following the MacBook Neo's huge popularity so far, Apple is reportedly developing an updated version of its budget laptop with a new processor and more memory, and even has plans to refresh the model with new colors. Following a similar report from analyst Tim Culpan earlier this year, Bloomberg's Mark Gurman says the new Neo […]

Last year, Microsoft's 13-inch Surface Laptop quickly became one of my favorite thin-and-light Windows notebooks. At $900, it was easy to recommend to anyone wanting MacBook Air-like build quality and battery life on Windows - I even convinced my sister to buy one on sale. But that was last year. This year, thanks to RAMageddon, […]

With storage and memory prices still at an all-time high, we’re happy to tell you about a solid deal on a good laptop when we find one, rare as they are. Best Buy is selling the HP OmniBook X Flip 2 in 1 for $999.99 (usually $1,649.99) with an Intel Core 7 Ultra CPU, 16GB […]

The macOS 27 Golden Gate public beta is here, and anyone with an M-series Mac now has easier access to test-drive Apple's latest changes - including a more subdued Liquid Glass aesthetic. That's reason enough to be at least a little excited for macOS 27 (particularly if you're on Tahoe and disliking all the transparency). […]

While fully loaded models are quite pricey, the HP OmniBook Ultra is hard to beat for those in the market for a premium Windows ultraportable.

The Dell 14S represents the new normal of laptop pricing, but it has the quality to back up its cost.

Laptop chargers are much easier to travel with these days, and there's one specific technology that is largely to thank.

Next spring could be a fiesta of new iPads, MacBooks and iPhones.

Apple is working on a "revamped" version of its entry-level MacBook Pro that it could launch as soon as the first half of 2027, Bloomberg reports. The company is also testing four new iPad Pros that are set to launch in the spring with a focus on "internal improvements." The updated MacBook Pro, which will […]

Thanks to the component crisis, it's a bad time to want a new computer. But if you are waiting on a preorder for the Framework Laptop 13 Pro - which Framework's CEO has called the "MacBook Pro for Linux users" - the company shared good news on Thursday that might mean yours will cost less […]

RAMageddon has come for computers. The price of memory chips, hard drives, and solid state storage has skyrocketed. That’s led to price increases on desktop and laptop RAM, SSDs, spinning hard drives, and pretty much everything that uses any of those things. Consoles are more expensive. Desktops are more expensive. Laptops are more expensive. Tablets […]

Apple just raised the prices on Macs and iPads in response to the rising costs of memory chips, right in the middle of Amazon Prime Day. That means existing discounts (even small ones) on Apple laptops like the MacBook Neo, MacBook Air, and MacBook Pro just became significantly better deals. As an example, the 13-inch […]

Microsoft just added a cheaper 12-inch Surface Pro and 13-inch Surface Laptop to its lineup. Both models come equipped with 8GB of RAM instead of 16GB, costing $849 for the specced-down Surface Pro and $949 for the Surface Laptop, as spotted earlier by Windows Central. When the 12-inch Surface Pro and 13-inch Surface Laptop launched […]

The RAM, storage, and component crunch has come for new laptop prices. Plenty of models have gone up in price after being on the market for months, and so have those that’ve been on shelves for over a year. Plus, many new models are releasing at higher prices than the previous generation. So, it really […]

I’ve been reviewing laptops for over a decade, and this is my advice on how to find the right laptop for you.
