For decades, Microsoft has been well known as a software company with their Windows 10 operating system and Microsoft Office. But over the years, the computer company has transitioned into designing and manufacturing actual computers and tablets — and that has us pretty excited.

The Microsoft Surface Laptop has become one of the best 2-in-1 machines on the market, which is why we were so stoked to discover that it’s now on sale for $799.00, or $200 off at Best Buy. 

Normally retailing for $999, the Surface Laptop features the power of a laptop with the mobility of a sleek and detachable tablet. The hybrid lives inside an all-in-one lightweight housing with a 13.5-inch PixelSense Display and a speedy Intel 7th Generation Core i5 and 8GB of memory. It also features 128GB of storage for music, video, documents, and media, while the laptop runs Windows 10 with Office 365, OneDrive, Skype, and more ready to go straight from the box. Read more…

PC gamers, welcome to heaven: The Razer Blade Pro is $500 off. 

This beast joins the family of Razer laptops, making it one of the priciest gaming laptops on the market. At full price, this behemoth ranges from $2,229 to $4,899 (depending on the display.)

It sports a massive 17.3-inch screen with thin bezels, a Quad-Core 7th Gen Intel® Core™ i7 processor, NVIDIA® GeForce GTX 10 Series VR ready graphics, and plenty of memory and storage. Choose between either 4K or Full HD display.

Ray Wong had this to say about the Blade 15 back in July:

If you’re looking to upgrade though, or need something bigger and badder (in a good way) than the Blade 15, then this sale is worth it. Read more…

The Surface Go is the laptop of the year

sudshr47 September 24, 2018

As a nearly constant traveler I’ve been looking for something like the Surface Go all my life. I’ve lugged around everything from massive ThinkPads to iPad Pros and I’ve always found myself stuck in one of two situations – the laptops that made the most sense were too heavy to be comfortably portable and the […]

8 of the best laptop backpacks, based on customer reviews

Although it may not seem like such a daunting task at first, finding the right laptop backpack can be really overwhelming. There are tons of different factors to consider, like what you’ll be using it for (work? school? travel?), the size of the laptop sleeve, how functional or comfortable it is, and how much stuff you’ll be able to cram inside. And let’s not forget about price. Because let’s be honest, some of us aren’t willing to drop more than $100 on a backpack. 

Choosing a backpack is a really personal task — it depends entirely on your specific needs. To make your life easier, we scoured through dozens of reviews from real customers in order to put together a list of top-runners, then outlined the things you need to know in order to make the best decision.

Lenovo’s new Yoga Book is fun, but don’t think of it as a laptop

sudshr47 August 31, 2018

Lenovo has brought a new version of its Yoga Book laptop/tablet/e-reader hybrid to the IFA technology conference in Berlin, and I now realize I’ve been looking at it all wrong. As a laptop, it’s not great: I don’t think I could type on its E Ink-based keyboard without throwing the laptop out the window in frustration. 

But as a tablet/e-reader hybrid, it might actually be good — if you can swallow the price. 

The Yoga Book C930 is an improvement over its predecessor in every way, but it’s conceptually the same thing: A laptop which has an E Ink screen instead of a keyboard.  Read more…

Acer Predator Triton 900 is a 2-in-1 gaming laptop, which is as crazy as it sounds

sudshr47 August 29, 2018

Have you ever pined for a big, bulky gaming laptop that lets you turn the screen away from you? At its press conference in Berlin ahead of the IFA trade show, Acer launched one such machine and called it the Predator Triton 900. 

The Triton 900’s screen is a 4K, Nvidia G-Sync enabled touchscreen fixed on a hinge and can be brought a bit closer to you for a more immersive experience. You can also fully flip it away from you, which Acer calls the “display mode.”

It’s unclear how the Triton 900 would perform as a tablet — it looks possible, but it would probably be a bit too bulky and heavy for some use cases.  Read more…
