Great performance per dollar. The IdeaPad 3 15 is a budget system that doesn't skimp on performance even when compared to a Core i7 in certain conditions. Though it feels fast for the price, the limited color space of the display and lack of some USB-C features can be disappointing.

AMD Zen 3 with 16:10 touchscreen. Lenovo's IdeaPad family has grown so confusingly large that it's been getting difficult to keep track of how the models are categorized. Even so, the family has its gems including the new IdeaPad 5 Pro 14 which could have easily passed as a Yoga if not for a couple of caveats.

Versatile. Acer's 2-in-1 laptop is equipped for office and Internet operation with a Ryzen 3 APU, 8 GB of working memory in dual-channel mode, and an NVMe SSD. The touchscreen can not only be operated with the fingers but also with an active input pen.

No frills HTPC. If Intel isn't your thing, then the AMD-powered SER3 can offer a similar level of performance as an older 8th gen Core-U series while costing a bit less. It also comes with dual storage and RAM options for easy upgrades down the road.

6-core vs. 8-core. Zen 2 may be old news, but it still has a lot of gas left in the pedal. Upgrading to the Ryzen 7 5700U Yoga 6 13 can offer a decent boost to overall performance for about $50 USD more than the Ryzen 5 5500U configuration.

Checks almost all the right boxes. Dell's latest Inspiron convertible offers an experience that's close to the XPS 2-in-1 or Latitude 2-in-1 while costing hundreds of dollars less. There are some catches, of course, but they don't detract all that much from the core experience.

For gaming, Intel is faster where it matters. The Win Max sounds great on paper and its portable form factor is attractive for handheld gaming, but there are enough drawbacks for us to hit the brakes on putting down $1000 USD for this Windows 10 UMPC.

One model, two different thicknesses. The G713 series consists of at least 16 different configurations of various AMD CPUs, GeForce GPUs, battery sizes, and even thicknesses. There are good options to be found in there, but ours is perhaps not the best.

AMD Ryzen 9 over Intel Core i9. Intel is no longer required for the ultimate gaming performance. Unlike the Strix Scar 15 G532, the Strix Scar 15 G533 has swapped all Intel Core options for liquid metal cooled AMD Ryzen processors alongside additional updates to the chassis, display, and graphics.

Hipster appeal. Lenovo is taking the concept of "stylish" to another level by incorporating fabric onto the chassis for a unique look and feel. It actually works, but its visual appeal will likely divide users especially since the fabric can make the laptop look like an old piece of clothing.

Zen 3 Cezanne and Nvidia Ampere upgrade. The Zephyrus G14 was the only game in town when it launched early last year, but times have changed. Some aspects of the system still hold up well while others are already starting to age when compared to the new 14-inch Razer Blade 14.

The AMD combo breaker. After being exclusively Intel for a decade, the Razer Blade series has finally gotten an AMD option that just so happens to outperform any Intel model that came before it. And, in typical Razer fashion, all that power has been condensed into an unbelievably small and portable form factor.

Mid-range price, high-end performance. The 2021 Envy x360 15 gets a small facelift and a processor update over the 2020 version. If you don't mind skipping Thunderbolt support, then the new model can be better than the Spectre x360 15 in many ways.
