Core Ultra 7 251HX performance debut. The 2026 Legion 5 15 offers a slightly larger screen size than the previous generation without being heavier or bigger. However, the super reflective OLED screen when gaming is definitely something to keep in mind.

Excellent performance, insufficient PSU. The MacBook Pro 16 handles the M5 Max SoC much better than the smaller 14-inch model. It is still a great multimedia laptop with a gorgeous Mini-LED screen, but the old design starts to show limitations and the 140W power adapter is insufficient.

Core Ultra 7 366H performance debut. The new EliteBook X Flip G2i 14 makes several changes from the EliteBook X Flip G1i 14 including Intel Panther Lake options and a new integrated stylus holder. However, at $3000 or more, the convertible doesn't come cheap.

Slimmer is better for charging. The Ugreen Nexode Air 65W Slim promises plenty of power in a very compact package. In our testing, the slim GaN charger shows how well 65 watts of output, three charging ports, and compact dimensions work together in everyday use. We examine charging performance, efficiency, temperatures, and behavior under sustained load—and determine whether this slim travel charger is really as versatile and robust as its specifications suggest.

Essential for budget gamers? As one of Lenovo's least expensive gaming laptops, the LOQ Essential 15 trims away most auxiliary features including RGB lighting, OLED, G-Sync, Advanced Optimus, and more while preserving GeForce RTX graphics. Is there such a thing as cutting too many corners?

New HyperX beginnings. Despite reusing the same chassis design and ports as the 2025 Omen 16, the 2026 model introduces a stronger CPU, faster and higher resolution display, and a cleaner keyboard layout that even occasional gamers can appreciate. Moreover, the Valorant Edition skin is surprisingly attractive on an otherwise midrange model.
