We tested a different iteration of the Alienware m15 Ryzen Edition R5, and we awarded it 4 stars, lauding it for offering a nice balance of features and performance for the price for creators and gamers alike. This config is built on a Ryzen 9 5900HX CPU and GeForce RTX 3070 graphics and given its current price, pretty much does the same.

The 2020 13-inch MacBook Air is built on Apple’s own M1 CPU, 8-core GPU, 8GB of RAM, and 256GB of solid-state storage. With nearly 30 (!) hours of battery life, we rated this iteration of the Apple MacBook Air 4.5 stars, and gave it our Editors’ Choice award, calling it “the best value among macOS laptops” at its retail price of $999. At its current sale price, it’s an absolute steal.

Dell G15

The G15 offers some decent specs for the price. With this configuration you get a 12th generation Intel Core i5 processor, 8GB RAM, an RTX 3050 Ti graphics card, and a 512GB SSD, which means you’ll be able to run high-fidelity titles at ultra settings. The 15.6-inch screen has a 1,920-by-1,080 resolution and 120Hz refresh rate to eliminate tearing and lag.

Acer Nitro

FAQ

What’s the best low-priced laptop?

PCMag’s current top-rated budget laptop is the Lenovo IdeaPad 3 14, which offers excellent performance and a bevy of modern trappings that almost make you forget it rings up at less than $600.

Which is the best site for buying a laptop?

The usual suspects when it comes to buying a laptop are Amazon and Best Buy, but you can often snag a deal at Newegg and Walmart, too, or direct from PC makers like Dell and HP. They all want your money, so they’ll often price-match each other if a rival is having a sale. Use a price-comparison app to compare prices, and read PCMag’s reviews to make sure you’re really getting a deal.

What is the most reliable laptop to buy?

The HP Pavilion Plus 14 is our current favorite among general-use Windows laptops. This laptop merges high-quality hardware and design with a surprisingly low starting price, bringing very capable computing power to more people than most flagship models. For those set on Apple, you can save some money and still get a powerful, long-lasting laptop by picking up the M1-based 2020 MacBook Air—otherwise, the pricier 2022 model is also a safe choice.

Which laptop is best in 2022?

Laptops come in many flavors. Do you need a gaming PC? A portable, convertible 2-in-1? Maybe you’re a macOS fan. We have top-rated laptops in each category, but our top-rated overall laptops include the HP Pavilion Plus 14 and Lenovo IdeaPad 3 14 mentioned earlier, as well as the 2022, M2-based Apple MacBook Air.
