The solution, according to Microsoft, is to get rid of it and buy a computer that can run Windows 11. But that's not good enough. This ThinkPad - like millions of other PCs in the same boat - is still perfectly functional.

The XPS 16 now weighs just 3.65 pounds (or 3.85 if you opt for the heavier LCD display), which is almost a full pound lighter than its predecessor (4.56 pounds). That's a massive drop and it makes this system closer in heft to a 15-inch MacBook Air (3.3 pounds) than a 16-inch MacBook Pro (4.7 pounds), despite the latter being XPS's usual rival.

Its new design makes it incredibly thin and light. And Intel's Panther Lake chips give it a ton of power, even when it comes to games. After reviving the XPS brand from last year's ignominious rebranding, it's as if Dell was laser-focused on fixing all the issues we've had with the XPS 14 so far.

The upper display renders 3D content without glasses, using Lenovo's PureSight Pro Tandem OLED technology to show depth and spatial volume directly on screen. A spacecraft that's been modeled in three dimensions appears to float, with genuine perceived distance between its front and rear planes, rather than sitting flat behind glass.

With its ProArt lineup, ASUS has commendably addressed a glaring hole in the PC market by targeting video editors and other creative pros. Its latest model even uses a popular camera marque in its name: the ProArt GoPro Edition PX13. It's a true co-branding exercise, with GoPro-like styling, a dedicated GoPro hotkey, mil-spec durability for extreme outdoor users and 12 months of GoPro's Cloud Plus Premium.

Lenovo's new pair of Yoga laptops for CES 2026 are its most powerful and most lightweight models. The flagship Yoga Pro 9i is a creator-focused laptop with a 16-inch 4K tandem OLED reaching 1,600 peak nits of brightness, Intel Panther Lake processor options, and up to an RTX 5070 for a discrete GPU. It also includes a Yoga Pen Gen 2 stylus that can magnetically attach to the lid, either on its own or in its protective case.

The 2.9-pound Prestige 14 Flip AI+ looks a little bit like everything: there's MacBook resemblance to be sure (what laptop on the market hasn't taken inspiration from Cupertino?) but you might also mistake it for a Lenovo Yoga, with the rounded edges and dual hinge design. The Flip 14 AI+ is the 2-in-1 convertible model, with a touchscreen OLED display and space for a stylus built into the bottom of the chassis that snaps firmly (!) in place.

Holding out for that really good Presidents' Day laptop deal? I got you. The 13th-gen is $620 off at B&H Photo/Video, bringing the price to $1,379 -- a fantastic deal for a tried-and-true, powerful workstation from one of our favorite laptop lines. Simply put, this is the standout laptop sale of the holiday weekend. Also: The best Presidents' Day sales we've found so far

When I go for a laptop, I typically prefer those in the 13- to 14-inch range. Every once in a while, however, I test a 16-inch laptop that makes me rethink my stance on size. Such was the case with the Geekom Geekbook X16 Pro . Although it might look a bit on the generic side, it's actually far nicer than its appearance would imply.

Right now, I'm working from the driver's seat of my car, using a setup that feels perfect for remote work. I use an M2 MacBook Air for when I need efficiency and long battery life, and sub in a Lenovo Yoga Book 9i with a dual-screen form factor for peak productivity. Theoretically, I've built out my car with the right gadgets to help me work from anywhere. There's just one thing missing - none of the laptops I own offer cellular connectivity.

Business laptops are typically dull computers foisted on employees en masse. But higher-end enterprise workstation notebooks sometimes get an interesting enough blend of power and features to appeal to enthusiasts. HP's ZBook Ultra G1a is a nice example. It's easy to see it as another gray boring-book for spendy business types, until you notice a few key specs: an AMD Strix Halo APU, lots of RAM, an OLED display, and an adequate amount of speedy ports (Thunderbolt 4, even - a rarity on AMD laptops).

Kicking off the list is the LG Gram Pro 17, which could be one of the most intriguing Windows laptops of 2026 thanks to a new material called Aerominum. Developed in-house, Aeronium is designed to reduce weight while maintaining structural durability. It allows the laptop to remain ultraportable without feeling fragile. LG even claims that it will be the world's lightweight RTX laptop.

Microsoft's for business is one of the most premium Windows laptops of the year, with a sleek physical build, haptic trackpad, crisp display, and impressive performance for business users and the enterprise setting. Its standout feature, however, lies under the (ahem) surface: It features a six-antenna array for 5G connectivity, supporting both physical nano SIM cards and eSIM technology from major carriers.

HP has announced a revamped lineup of OmniBook productivity laptops at CES, including its latest AI-focused flagship Ultra model. While pricing and availability haven't yet been revealed, we know the upcoming HP OmniBook Ultra 14 is ditching its previous AMD Ryzen AI 300-series CPUs in favor of Intel's Panther Lake and Qualcomm's Snapdragon X2 series processors, which are expected to provide a hefty performance boost to AI-related tasks.

Lenovo has brought a slew of updates to its Legion and LOQ line of gaming laptops for CES 2026. The refreshed laptops are all built around Nvidia RTX 50-series GPUs. The new Legion 7a is both thinner and lighter than the previous generation and is aimed at gamers, creators, and working professionals. Lenovo says the new 7a will be powered by AMD Ryzen AI 400 CPUs and RTX 50-series GPUs, delivering up to 125W of total system power.
