Some laptops are thin. Some laptops last for hours. The new LG Gram Laptop does both. Available in 13.3-, 14- and 15.6-inch versions, it lasts for up to 22.5 hours per charge while weighing as little as 965 grams — or just over two pounds. Its body is built to military standards from a nanocarbon magnesium alloy, and also offers DTS Headphone X support, Thunderbolt 3-capable USB C ports, and booting times under 10 seconds.

Microsoft Surface Book 2

It's not the lightest laptop on the market — the 15-inch model weighs over four pounds — but it is among the fastest. Packing 8th-generation Intel dual- and quad-core processors and Nvidia GeForce graphics, the Microsoft Surface Book 2 has the computing power to crunch through any job (or game) with ease. It retains the detachable display of its predecessor, letting it convert from laptop to tablet instantly, and its 17 hours of maximum battery life ensure it'll run all day without needing a charge.

ThinkPad 25th Anniversary Edition

Few, if any, Windows PCs are as iconic as the ThinkPad. Originally released by IBM in 1992, and its boxy black design became an instant hit. Now Lenovo is honoring its debut with the ThinkPad 25th Anniversary Edition. Instantly recognizable, it retains the 7-row keyboard, blue Enter key, and red TrackPoint cursor control of the original, but packs in modern components like an Intel Core i7 processor, 14-inch Full HD touchscreen, SSD storage, and all-day battery life. Finished with retro logos and special throwback packaging.

Volta Computer

When buying a computer, you normally have two choices: buy something that looks good, or buy something that's upgradable. With the Volta V Computer, you don't have to choose. Its unibody chassis is cut from American hardwood, precision-machined, and then assembled and finished by hand. The components inside are laid out on a single level, protected by a magnetically-attached lid that makes upgrades and repairs easy. And its 5.5-inch height makes it not only ideal as a monitor stand but also lets you store your keyboard underneath. Available with a wide range of components, and with your choice of a bamboo or walnut case.

The glass is made of crystal and precision modeled to touch down on four crystal points, making surface contact but providing the appearance that it's hovering. The Rauk also has extruded v-shaped markings inside that offer friction points for gripping slippery peels in cocktails before you muddle them back to life.

Inside, it's powered by a dual-core Intel Celeron processor, and has modest, yet respectable, specs, including HDMI output and modern wireless connectivity. Most importantly, though, it runs Endless OS, which means it's as easy to use as a smartphone, and includes over 100 apps and tools that work great even without an Internet connection.

Apple MacBook Pro

It's been years since Apple redesigned the MacBook Pro. They've used the time wisely. The new Apple MacBook Pro is thinner, lighter, and smaller than the previous generation. The display comes in 13- and 15-inch varieties, and is brighter, has greater contrast, and displays more colors than before. Open it up, and you'll find a Force Touch trackpad that's twice as large, an all-new keyboard, and, most noticeably, the Touch Bar. It's a multi-touch display that replaces the function keys, dynamically changing depending on what you're doing, with a Touch ID-enabled power button hidden on the far-right side. Hidden inside, there are Intel Core i5 or i7 processors, Intel Iris or Radeon Pro graphics, even faster SSD storage, an all-new speaker design, and four Thunderbolt 3 ports that also support charging, USB-C, and video out. But most likely the first thing you'll notice is the color: in addition to the classic silver, the all-aluminum body will now be available in a subdued space gray.

So instead of chaining you to a desk or selling you a pizza box-sized portable, the Razer Blade Stealth lets you have both a high-end gaming PC and an ultrathin laptop, thanks to a smart, simple compromise. The Intel Core i7-powered laptop sports a 12.5-inch high-res touchscreen, yet has an aluminum chassis that measures just over half an inch thick and lets the package weigh in at under three pounds. All of this makes for a capable laptop, but when it's time to game, you use the Thunderbolt 3 port to connect to your desk-bound, sold-separately Core, which houses a double-wide, full-length PCIe graphics card from your choice of AMD or Nvidia, as well as a host of extra ports, a beefy power supply, and plenty of heat dissipation. Portability when you want it, power when you need it — the computing equivalent of a mullet.
