Asus Asus ROG Zephyrus G14 (2026) review The most capable 14-inch gaming laptop you can buy, with a superb OLED and real battery life, at a price $600 above last year's model. 90/100 HP HP OmniBook 5 14 (2026) review A light, quiet, all-metal Windows laptop with an OLED touchscreen and outstanding battery life, best bought with 16 GB of memory. 66/100 Lenovo Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 14 review The business laptop to beat for battery life, typing and ports, at a price that only makes sense if work is paying or you will use it every day for years. 78/100 Lenovo Lenovo ThinkPad E14 Gen 7 review A sensible work laptop that you can open, upgrade and keep for years, with a better screen than its price suggests. 77/100 Dell Dell XPS 14 (2026) review The best-looking and longest-lasting XPS in years, and one of the few thin Windows laptops that can also game, held back by a shallow keyboard and a high price for the OLED model. 82/100 Apple Apple MacBook Air 13 (M5) review The easiest laptop to recommend for work and study, as long as you do not need many ports or serious gaming. 81/100 Apple Apple MacBook Neo review The cheapest way into a real MacBook, and a good one for light work and school, as long as you can live with 8 GB of memory and no keyboard backlight. 68/100
