Looking for a laptop refresh?

In this Blog, I will be discussing the three best business laptops that are set to do great in 2019.


 

Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon

The first laptop I’ll be reviewing, and my personal favourite is the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon. This comes as no surprise due to the X1’s predecessors being voted the best business laptop of the year last year and best in class. The most recent adaptation of the X1 shows off it’s the thinner and smaller design which compare to no other. The hardware in this machine can’t be faulted either, with an Intel Core I7 process, 1TB SSD and 16GB of RAM, you will be guaranteed no performance issues with this machine, effectively making this laptop the best money can buy. This laptop is convenient for on-site work due to the 15.5-hour battery life however once you plug in your charger, you’ll notice the rapid charge feature which can charge your laptop up to 80% within an hour.

Dell XPS 2019

The second laptop is the new and improved, Dell XPS. It could be argued that this laptop is more targeted at a home user, however, the specification of this machine proves that this would have no problem in a business environment. This laptop comes close to the X1 regarding specification; yet different variations are occurring at varying costs. You can choose models between I5 and I7 processor, 8GB – 16GB RAM and 256GB-1TB SSD. The higher the spec, the more expensive the machine is. The XPS is slightly smaller than the X1, with a 13.3 Inch screen and, has 22 Hours of battery life. This could be your next best laptop choice.

Microsoft Surface Book 2

The third and final laptop I will be reviewing Is the Microsoft Surface Book 2. A laptop may not the best way to describe this one. The surface book 2 is a 2-in-1, which essentially makes it a tablet and laptop, once docked into the keyboard this is a fully functional laptop, however, just the press of one button and this becomes one of the most advanced tablets available on the market right now. Functioning Intel core i5 or i7, 8GB-16GB of RAM and 256GB – 1TB SSD, even though the smaller format and the tablet ability this laptop can still compete with the best of them.
