The best Ultrabooks are awesome for working on the go, and make great gifts. Read on to find the best Ultrabook for you.
The best Ultrabooks are the ultimate status symbol, especially if you’re a student or if you spend a lot of time in the local Coffee shop. While everyone has big and bulky Chromebooks or budget laptops, you’ll whip out a thinner, lighter and faster machine with the best SSDs and processors you can get in a laptop.
These thin and light laptops are as much about portability as raw power. The best Ultrabooks aren’t going to freeze up in the middle of an important project or run out of battery on a short flight – you don’t have to worry about any of that.

From brands you know and love, like HP and Dell, to those you may not know, like Huawei, we reviewed them all for their designs performance and battery life.

Weighing just 2.67 lbs (1.21kg) and measuring just 0.3 inch at its narrowest point, the Dell XPS 13 is the essence of the best Ultrabooks.

It wields 8th generation Kaby Lake Refresh processors, obviously, but it also features three USB Type-C ports and the option of a gorgeous Alpine white finish.
