If portability is a top priority of yours, then investing in an ultraportable laptop is the way to go. These laptops are exceedingly thin and lightweight and generally have good battery life. However, while they may share certain essential characteristics, ultraportables can still differ greatly. From the parts they use to the trade-offs they make to achieve ultra-portability, to the build quality, it’s important to know what mix of features makes the best ultraportable laptops.
Battery life, ergonomics, and specs are all worthy of consideration. Basically, the laptop needs to perform well and travel easily. But if you’re feeling overwhelmed by all the choices out there, don’t sweat it, as we’ve done most of the heavy lifting for you. See our recommendations for the ultraportables that our expert reviewers have deemed best.
