Black or White. Sony launches its new Xperia E4g in black or white on the market. The 4.7-inch smartphone features an IPS screen, LTE Cat.4, NFC, a Mediatek quad-core SoC and dual-band Wi-Fi. The smartphone is priced at approximately 130 Euros (~$144) and convinces with decent performance.

PC debacle. Even high-end notebooks hit their limit with Batman: Arkham Knight. We've checked the performance of the game with its open-world structure on several different systems.

Liquid Jade. Acer's Liquid Jade Z is a very lightweight dual-SIM smartphone with many curves. This report reveals whether the device is convincing overall.

All-rounder with minor drawbacks. The new, relatively low-priced desktop replacement laptop from the AsusPro series does not have any really striking features. It is not a specialized device, but rather a solid multimedia all-rounder with some business qualities, which is also suitable for gaming and does everything quite decently, but nothing exceptionally well.
Intel Core i5-4210M | NVIDIA GeForce 930M | 17.30" | 3 kg

Lenovo created a balanced bundle. Recently, the Y50-70 proved to be a good entry into the mobile gaming world. Now, the manufacturer put even more performance into the slim case and improved the bundle. The most important change: Lenovo replaced the predecessor's poor TN display with a good IPS panel with 1080p resolution and matte surface.
Intel Core i7-4710HQ | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960M | 15.60" | 2.4 kg

Dark screen. Dell sends a 15.6-inch all-rounder into the fight for buyers' favor with its Inspiron 15-5558. The laptop pleases with an IPS screen that, however, has a much too low brightness. Dell could have been a bit less tightfisted with the GPU.
Intel Core i5-5200U | NVIDIA GeForce 920M | 15.60" | 2 kg

High-quality entertainment. The latest edition of Asus' paragon multimedia laptop promises more power in all sectors. The whole thing has only one catch: The buyer has to dig deeper into their pocket.
Intel Core i7-4720HQ | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960M | 15.60" | 2.6 kg

Top-notch. Since our last update article on the MSI 17-inch gaming laptop, the manufacturer has modified certain features. Although our test model, the GT72-2QE16SR21BW, lacks Nvidia G-Sync technology, the Wide-View display entices us to take a closer look.
Intel Core i7-5700HQ | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980M | 17.30" | 3.7 kg

Great screen for cheap. The 5-inch phone retails for just around $100 and it already sports an 8-core MediaTek processor. What other surprises does this model carry?
Mediatek MT6592 | ARM Mali-450 MP4 | 5.00" | 122 g

Underdeveloped. The spec sheet of Sony's new premium-range phone has quite a bit to offer. However, it exhibits some shortcomings in practice. For example, our review sample struggled with multiple small and big peculiarities that we did not expect.
Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 MSM8994 | Qualcomm Adreno 430 | 5.20" | 144 g

A good "Start". A good "Start". Acer's entry-level office laptop with the somewhat bulky name Aspire E15 Start ES1-512-P1SM can score with a long battery life and useful keyboard among other things. However, is that enough to prevail over the multitude of equally low-priced competitors?
Intel Pentium N3540 | Intel HD Graphics (Bay Trail) | 15.60" | 2.2 kg

Elvis. Great voice, appealing performance and best entertainment value. The Prestige series aims to impress consumers and business users alike with its luxury features. Will it manage to do that with the standard tools? The manufacturer has eliminated the classic MSI vulnerable "keyboard", a wise decision that makes us happy.
Intel Core i5-4210H | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960M | 15.60" | 2.3 kg

Not enough pixels! Toshiba's Z30-B-100 is a lightweight Subnotebook that aims to signalize mobility. That is largely achieved, but is a TN screen with a standard HD resolution still up-to-date in 2015?
Intel Core i5-5200U | Intel HD Graphics 5500 | 13.30" | 1.2 kg

Slim gamer. Recently, we reviewed Asus' new member of the ROG series, the high-end US model. Our current model for the German market is about 600 Euros (~$672) cheaper but makes compromises in features. Nevertheless, it even performs partly better than the more expensive model we reviewed.
Intel Core i7-4720HQ | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960M | 15.60" | 2 kg

Maintenance-friendly. Schenker's 14-inch Ultrabook stands out with its very individual configurability. However, its noise and temperature development could be better.
Intel Core i7-5500U | Intel HD Graphics 5500 | 14.00" | 1.8 kg

Model upgrade. Despite its slim build, there is plenty of computing power in Lenovo's gaming laptop. The combination of powerful hardware, 4K screen, and decent connectivity is to make potential buyers curious.
Intel Core i7-4710HQ | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960M | 15.60" | 2.4 kg

Android 5.0 for cheap. The Tab 2 A8 promises extensive multimedia features for an affordable price of $129. Is this a worthy successor to last year's 8-inch Tab A8?
MediaTek MT8161 | ARM Mali-T720 MP2 | 8.00" | 360 g

Last-gen still competes. The latest model in the Dell Venue 11 Pro 5130 range includes a high-end Atom (Baytrail-M) processor and combines it with 4GB of RAM and a full HD screen which showcases what can be done with Atom, at a time when the next-gen processors are feeding-in and quickly ageing this tablet.
Intel Atom Z3795 | Intel HD Graphics (Bay Trail) | 10.80" | 770 g

Enduring. The Dell Vostro 3558 is a low-cost office notebook that is primarily designed as a working device. This claim is supported by good battery runtimes and decent input devices. It is unfortunate that Dell did not equip the device with a digital-video output.
Intel Core i5-5200U | Intel HD Graphics 5500 | 15.60" | 2.4 kg

Crackerjack. MSI's GT70 workstation managed seventh place in our workstation ranking. Now we have the successor, MSI's WT72, with a new casing, better screen and optimized performance to test. The following report shows just how well the powerhouse scores overall.
Intel Core i7-4980HQ | NVIDIA Quadro K4100M | 17.30" | 3.7 kg

And yet another One... Acer's Iconia One 8 tablet is inexpensive, easy to handle and comes with Android 5. Read in this report to find out whether the tablet has been made with bargain hunters in mind or if it will also be suitable for more demanding buyers.
Intel Atom Z3735G | Intel HD Graphics (Bay Trail) | 8.00" | 340 g

Comeback. The mobile high-end market is dominated by Intel and Nvidia. Alienware is one of the few manufacturers who offer GPUs from AMD as well. We ordered the 15-inch version of the notebook with the GTX 970M rival Radeon R9 M295X to check out the performance.
Intel Core i7-4710HQ | AMD Radeon R9 M295X | 15.60" | 3.1 kg

A good first step. The TV maker makes a good first effort in its foray into the notebook market. Find out what we liked and didn't like about this early Ultrabook from the fast-growing electronics company.
Intel Core i3-3217U | Intel HD Graphics 4000 | 14.00" | 1.5 kg

Four eyes see 3D. Amazon's Fire Phone aims to offer innovative features for a small price, but the online retailer has not got a lot of praise so far. Our review shows why we are not convinced, either.
Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 MSM8974 | Qualcomm Adreno 330 | 4.70" | 160 g

Broadwell upgrade. The EliteBook 820 G2 is a 12.5-inch business notebook. Overall, it left a good impression and does not need to hide from the competition. However, it also is not exactly affordable with a price of just under 2000 Euros (~$2253).
Intel Core i7-5500U | Intel HD Graphics 5500 | 12.50" | 1.3 kg

Fire and Origami. Once again, the fourth generation of the Fire HDX 8.9 is a tablet with great multimedia capabilities. However, the software limitations are still significant. So is it a tablet only for Amazon fans?
Qualcomm Snapdragon 805 APQ8084 | Qualcomm Adreno 420 | 8.90" | 375 g

Little dinosaur. A 4.5-inch IPS screen with 854x480 pixels, a weak MediaTek SoC, only 4 GB of flash memory - what sounded good in the former Y530 now seems to be a relic of the beginnings of smartphones, and everything but up-to-date. Huawei demands 100 Euros (~$111, RRP) for not more than a decent entry-level device.
MediaTek MT6572 | ARM Mali-400 MP | 4.50" | 150 g

Premium desktop replacement. The Asus N751JX lends oneself as a replacement for the home desktop PC. Overall, it performs well. However, with a price tag of about 1200 Euros (~$1351), it is not a bargain.
Intel Core i7-4720HQ | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 950M | 17.30" | 3.4 kg

Not just a good looker. LG now offers genuine leather back covers for its premium smartphone, and uses a lightly curved design for this model. The manufacturer preserves the old virtues and optimizes the device in important areas. However, it has not quite managed to eliminate all the flaws of the precursor.
Qualcomm Snapdragon 808 MSM8992 | Qualcomm Adreno 418 | 5.50" | 155 g

Two GPUs. Schenker’s 17-inch Workstation is available with two Nvidia graphics cards in an SLI configuration. Read the review to find out whether the quality and the performance of the W724 can keep up with other dual-GPU laptops such as the Aorus X7 Pro or the MSI GT80.
Intel Core i7-4810MQ | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970M SLI | 17.30" | 4.3 kg

Low-cost Office. With the 350 G1, HP offers a simple Office notebook with Haswell Pentium. You only need to put 290 Euros (~$320) on the table to own this 15.6-inch model.
Intel Pentium 3558U | Intel HD Graphics (Haswell) | 15.60" | 2.3 kg

Expensive pleasure. More performance, a new Force Touch TrackPad as well as longer battery runtimes are supposed to make the reworked MacBook Pro 15 even more appealing – and therefore justify a retail price far in excess of the 2000 Euros (~$2252) mark. Is this enough to compete with the improved rivals?
Intel Core i7-4870HQ | AMD Radeon R9 M370X | 15.40" | 2 kg

Successful all-rounder. The F751LB boasts good connectivity and low emissions. Furthermore, the TN panel offers 99% coverage of the sRGB color spectrum.
Intel Core i7-5500U | NVIDIA GeForce 940M | 17.30" | 2.8 kg

Now with the latest Broadwell-H CPU. Eurocom is one of the first resellers to incorporate the recently released Intel Core i7-5775C CPU into its product line. How does this desktop 65 W processor compare to the current mobile Broadwell champions?
Intel Core i7-5775C | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980M | 17.30" | 3.9 kg

New inner values. Apple's new MacBook Air 13 is even faster than previous models. But, not only the performance is a positive aspect. However, the flaws of the previous generations were, unfortunately, hardly improved.
Intel Core i7-5650U | Intel HD Graphics 6000 | 13.30" | 1.4 kg

All hat and no cattle? Dell's heavyweight 17-inch machine with a classy aluminum casing looks good and provokes envious glances on the desk. However, Dell is restrained in terms of hardware. Nevertheless, will the luxury Inspiron prove to be a rounded bundle?
Intel Core i5-5200U | NVIDIA GeForce 845M | 17.30" | 3.3 kg

Fast Forward. New CPU and GPU generations - Asus updates their series of affordable 15.6-inch all-rounder notebooks in two ways. The new hardware increases performance significantly while consuming less power in the process. The result is an increase in the battery life.
Intel Core i3-5010U | NVIDIA GeForce 920M | 15.60" | 2.3 kg

Enduring beauty. I want a light 13-inch notebook, a tablet, a high-quality as well as great-looking chassis, and really long battery runtimes. But those are 4 wishes at once, that's really not possible! Yes it is. The big surprise in our in-depth review.
Intel Core i7-5500U | Intel HD Graphics 5500 | 13.30" | 1.5 kg

Indestructible. The ToughPad FZ-E1 is a member of Panasonic's first Rugged 5-inch Handhelds. The device has been developed primarily for enterprise and industrial use. In addition to its exceptional outdoor qualities and battery life, it has a really high performance.
Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 MSM8974AB | Qualcomm Adreno 330 | 5.00" | 426 g

Short blade. ZTE's Blade S6 is located in the upper mid-range. The 5-inch smartphone wants to attract buyers with plenty of RAM, a high-resolution camera, and decent performance. Find out in our review why the phone from China is not very enduring.
Qualcomm Snapdragon 615 MSM8939 | Qualcomm Adreno 405 | 5.00" | 134 g

Multi-mode. Handy as a subnotebook, thin and light as a tablet. The compact form factor could currently represent the optimum between mobility and productivity. The Core M ensures long battery runtimes and the IPS panel a good picture impression. Read our review to find out why the package still cannot really convince us.
Intel Core M-5Y10c | Intel HD Graphics 5300 | 11.60" | 1.1 kg

Long, cool, and quiet. Compared to last year's model, the Samsung Chromebook 2 is largely the same in terms of features and appearance. However, the manufacturer has improved upon one key aspect that propels this updated model near the top of the Chromebook list.
Intel Celeron N2840 | Intel HD Graphics (Bay Trail) | 11.60" | 1.2 kg

Purist. In the past few years, Codemasters has developed an arcade-oriented, racing game. Now with “Dirt Rally”, they have decided to return to the old Colin McRae roots. We ran the "Early-Access" game to check its hardware requirements.

Upgraded. The TalkBand B1 is already more than your usual fitness tracker, including as it does a Bluetooth headset. With this new model, Huawei offers a similar design and also tries to break into the premium line. With materials such as leather, glass, and aluminum, this is generally a success. Apart from that, the Smartband delivers good battery runtimes.

Lithe and lissome. The British manufacturer Kazam holds a record: The Kazam Tornado 348 is the thinnest smartphone in the world. Our review will check the other qualities of the smartphone.
Mediatek MT6592 | ARM Mali-450 MP4 | 4.80" | 95.5 g

Boldly priced. Actually, HP has almost done everything right in the refresh of its premium model and presents a throughout well-designed, very slim and swift business ultrabook with an IPS touchscreen and extensive security features. However, incomprehension evolves when comparing the price-performance ratio with the competition.
Intel Core i7-5600U | Intel HD Graphics 5500 | 14.00" | 1.5 kg

Quiet. Without making a big fuss, Asus has included a mobile 15-inch workstation in its product line. The PU551JH is already available for less than 1,000 Euros (~$1098) and might be a genuine price-cutter thanks to its matte Full HD display and Nvidia Quadro K1100M. We have tested it extensively to see if this is the case.
Intel Core i5-4210M | NVIDIA Quadro K1100M | 15.60" | 2.5 kg

Successful. The MSI GE72 is a 17.3-inch gaming notebook with great performance and a strong panel with 94% sRGB coverage. Overall, MSI offers a good package for gamers.
Intel Core i7-4720HQ | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960M | 17.30" | 2.9 kg

Sharp as a knife. Slim, elegant and streamlined - the looks of the S7 will stop everyone from simply passing by Acer's premium range. Will the pricey first-rate configuration of WQHD screen and SSD Raid ultimately be convincing? We examined that in this in-depth test report.
Intel Core i7-5500U | Intel HD Graphics 5500 | 13.30" | 1.3 kg

Understatement. With a screen resolution of 1024x768 pixels in a 4:3 format, Samsung's 9.7-inch Galaxy Tab A presents itself as an ideal e-book reader, web-browsing device, and email machine. However, our test proves that the quad-core android has a lot more to offer.
Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 APQ8016 | Qualcomm Adreno 306 | 9.70" | 456 g

Heavyweight. The third part of the fantasy saga based on the sorcerer Geralt is now in front of us. The story and graphics of the game promises to eclipse the RPG competition. However, we are more interested in the game performance on notebooks. What system is needed for what settings?

The art of omission. Sometimes less is more, which is what Apple probably thought when they designed the ultramobile MacBook 12. Besides unnecessary weight, they also removed (almost) all the ports. A radical concept that won't suit everybody – and inspire some.
Intel Core M-5Y31 | Intel HD Graphics 5300 | 12.00" | 920 g

Power Spike. Dell offers updated components for the Alienware 13. Let us find out if the Core i7-5500U and the GeForce GTX 960M are worth the investment.
Intel Core i7-5500U | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960M | 13.30" | 2 kg

Say "cheese!" LG has once and for all completely dedicated itself to photography with its new flagship. A higher resolution, bigger lenses, a higher luminosity, and an improved image stabilizer... it almost lets us forget that the G4 is a superb smartphone - optionally available in leather. Unfortunately, it also has some old weaknesses.
Qualcomm Snapdragon 808 MSM8992 | Qualcomm Adreno 418 | 5.50" | 155 g

Update with a catch. Dell updated its 13.3-inch convertible with the latest technology. Besides the new Broadwell processor you still get a 360-degree hinge as well as a touchscreen. The most noticeable change, however, is the louder fan.
Intel Core i7-5500U | Intel HD Graphics 5500 | 13.30" | 1.7 kg

4 GB of RAM! We all knew it was inevitable, but it's finally here -- the first major consumer smartphone with 4 GB dual-channel DDR3 RAM. Not only that, but it can also be had for just $300. Is this 5.5-inch monster enough to lure users away from popular Chinese brands like the OnePlus One?
Intel Atom Z3560 | PowerVR G6430 | 5.50" | 170 g

Featherweight. The updated version of the Toshiba KIRA weighs 200 grams less without the touchscreen and is therefore one of the lightest 13.3-inch devices on the market. The new Broadwell hardware ensures sufficient performance and long battery runtimes, but is the high price justified?
Intel Core i7-5500U | Intel HD Graphics 5500 | 13.30" | 1.1 kg

Chromebook rival. If users do not find the color of the Stream 13 appealing, they will at least find the inner values attractive. Its silent operation, long battery life, and low price make HP's laptop interesting. A one-year license for MS Office 365 Personal is also included.
Intel Celeron N2840 | Intel HD Graphics (Bay Trail) | 13.30" | 1.6 kg

17.3-inch all-rounder. With its Pavilion 17, HP offers a gaming suitable 17.3-inch all-rounder priced at just under 600 Euros (~$660). However, we discovered some shortcomings.
Intel Core i5-5200U | NVIDIA GeForce 830M | 17.30" | 2.8 kg

Solid gamer. The MSI GE60 is a powerful, yet affordable, gaming notebook. The laptop performs well but suffers from high noise and temperature emissions.
Intel Core i7-4720HQ | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960M | 15.60" | 2.6 kg

Gigantic with drawbacks. As expected from MSI's GT lineup, we meet uncompromising readiness to perform. The update of the GT70 is faster and in some cases even cheaper. However, the weaknesses found in the old tests, unfortunately, have not been eliminated.
Intel Core i7-4710MQ | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970M | 17.30" | 3.8 kg

Big meets affordable. Honor, Huawei's subsidiary, launches a device in the growing phablet sector with its new Honor 4X. The austerely designed casing contains a lot for approximately 200 Euros (~$220): LTE Cat4, a sufficiently fast octa-core SoC, dual-SIM functionality, and a bright IPS screen. A well-rounded package.
HiSilicon Kirin 620 | ARM Mali-450 MP4 | 5.50" | 173 g

Turbo SSD. Decent gaming performance is expected from a gaming laptop. Asus' GL771JW fulfills this, and the laptop even pleases/surprises with a super-fast SSD (PCI Express x4). It also features a screen that offers 90% sRGB coverage.
Intel Core i7-4720HQ | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960M | 17.30" | 3.3 kg

Let the games begin! Equipped with an Nvidia GeForce 940M, the ThinkPad T450s can cope with 3D applications and games - and that for a relatively low extra charge. Thanks to a 96 Wh battery capacity, record-breaking runtimes should be possible.
Intel Core i5-5200U | NVIDIA GeForce 940M | 14.00" | 1.8 kg

Transformation. Compact subnotebook or fully fledged desktop replacement: The MSI GS30 wants to be both at the same time. Our review will reveal whether the GamingDock model does so successfully or whether it sits on the fence.
Intel Core i7-4870HQ | Intel Iris Pro Graphics 5200 | 13.30" | 1.3 kg

Generation 4K. Notebookcheck tries something new and reviews the high-resolution 28-inch display Asus PB287Q. Read our review to find out whether the Ultra HD model is worth its price.
28.00"

Curvy. The LG Spirit is a middle-class Smartphone with a stylish, curvy back. However, unlike its back, the front and, by extension, the display is straight. How does the device match up against the competition? Is it all looks?
Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 MSM8916 | Qualcomm Adreno 306 | 4.70" | 120 g

Size doesn't matter. It may be less than 14-inches, but the Aorus X3 Plus still performs just as well as many larger gaming models currently available. What compromises must buyers make for this 3200 x 1800 QHD+ 13.9-inch notebook with 3x RAID 0 and GTX 970M graphics?
Intel Core i7-4710HQ | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970M | 13.90" | 1.8 kg

More display, less power. Finally the moment has come: The new Apple MacBook 12 faces our tests. Read all about our first results and get a first taste of our upcoming extensive review.
Intel Core M-5Y31 | Intel HD Graphics 5300 | 12.00" | 920 g

Average. The HP 15 is a simple office laptop for home use. The laptop does not shine in any area, except the CPU, but it does offer a decent package. Sadly, the manufacturer has left a lot of room for complaint.
Intel Core i5-5200U | Intel HD Graphics 5500 | 15.60" | 2.2 kg

More power. The GeForce GTX 970M is significantly more powerful than the previously tested GE62 model (GeForce GTX 965M). Sadly, even this 4K panel does not make the cut.
Intel Core i7-4720HQ | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970M | 15.60" | 2.4 kg

As quiet as a mouse. They are rare indeed: Multimedia laptops equipped with AMD APUs and a powerful dedicated Radeon core. The overall performance is impressive - provided the price is reasonable.
AMD FX-7600P | AMD Radeon R9 M280X | 15.60" | 2.7 kg

Quality has its price. HP demands almost 2,000 Euros (~$2289) for its top model of the EliteBook 850 series - in return the customer receives a brilliantly manufactured business laptop with an impressive configuration. Ultimately it is the minor weaknesses that prevent the laptop from ascending the top of its appliance class.
Intel Core i7-5500U | AMD Radeon R7 M260X | 15.60" | 2 kg

Modular. Fujitsu's 13.3-inch machine offers everything a modern business notebook needs. The module slot allows some customization for the user's own needs.
Intel Core i5-5300U | Intel HD Graphics 5500 | 13.30" | 1.4 kg

The Ultimate ZenBook? Sporting nearly identical specifications to the recently-reviewed G501JW, the UX501JW—with a 4K LCD display, discrete graphics, and quad-core CPU—targets an audience who may in fact be a better fit for its choices. Is this truly the ultimate ZenBook?
Intel Core i7-4720HQ | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960M | 15.60" | 2.3 kg

Needs sharpening. The 17.3-inch Razer Blade Pro has not seen a major revision since its reveal in 2011 and its age is starting to show. Is the attractive razor-thin form factor and unique Switchblade interface enough to convince the hardcore gaming crowd?
Intel Core i7-4720HQ | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960M | 17.30" | 3.1 kg

Rugged tendency. The Dell Venue 10 Pro is a Windows 8 tablet that appears to have arrived too late to the market but a solid build and good accessory range give it appeal. Travelers, teachers and industrial IT buyers should take notes.
Intel Atom Z3735F | Intel HD Graphics (Bay Trail) | 10.10" | 656 g

Light artist. The Huawei P8 is the latest flagship device from the Chinese company, which does not only have an elegant design, but also offers a lot inside the aluminum chassis: Build quality, camera and display can meet the highest demands. However, the connectivity and the performance do not leave a high-end impression.
HiSilicon Kirin 930 | ARM Mali-T628 MP4 | 5.20" | 147 g

Surprise bag. A quad-core SoC, high-speed LTE Internet alongside an NFC module, Android 5.0 and 8 GB of storage. This bundle, in the form of the 4.5-inch LG Leon LGH340N, is officially available for just 149 Euros (~$170). Our report reveals how well the mid-range smartphone fares in real life.
Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 MSM8916 | Qualcomm Adreno 306 | 4.50" | 120 g

Even better thanks to Broadwell. The HP EliteBook Revolve 810 G3 can basically be described as a Broadwell upgrade of its predecessor. However, the processor alone suffices to improve the convertible: More power and significantly improved battery runtimes are what the device has to offer.
Intel Core i7-5600U | Intel HD Graphics 5500 | 11.60" | 1.4 kg

Desktop midget. Acer's Revo One is a Mini Desktop PC designed primarily for the home user. The PC tries to attract customers with lots of storage, good performance, and an up-to-date arrangement of physical ports. How the review model differs from other offerings in the market is the subject of our review.

Intel Atom Z3735D | Intel HD Graphics (Bay Trail) | 10.10" | 1.2 kg

Disappointing display. Fujitsu's new 14-inch business Ultrabook, the LifeBook U745, left a good impression overall. However, Fujitsu has made a mistake when selecting the display.
Intel Core i5-5300U | Intel HD Graphics 5500 | 14.00" | 1.7 kg

You get what you pay for. HP demands less than 400 Euros (~$446) for the basic configuration of its ProBook 455 G2, which recommends it for entering the world of semi-professional office laptops. Unfortunately, the weak hardware slows down the user far too often.
AMD A6 Pro-7050B | AMD Radeon R4 (Kaveri) | 15.60" | 2.2 kg

Nice soundbox. HTC tries to keep old strengths with the One M9 and does not really change the design of its flagship smartphone. The speakers still create a very good sound, but the latest version once again reveals problems in respect of the reworked camera. The battery runtimes could be longer as well.
Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 MSM8994 | Qualcomm Adreno 430 | 5.00" | 157 g

Broadwell upgrade. Fujitsu does not hold back in its 13.3-inch LifeBook T935: A slim metal casing as well as a hinged display is configured with decent hardware, costing almost 2000 Euros (~$2244). However, the computer exhibits some weaknesses.
Intel Core i5-5300U | Intel HD Graphics 5500 | 13.30" | 1.6 kg
