Intel NUC performance without the NUC price. The Ryzen 5560U may be a couple years old, but it performs so similarly to the new Ryzen 5 7530U that most users would be unable to tell the difference especially for basic HTPC purposes. The SER5 is quite the bargain for just $230 USD complete with Windows 11.

Potential for improvement. ProBook, EliteBook, ZBook: Keeping track of HP's model range is increasingly difficult. With the ProBook 445 G10, we test one of the manufacturer's cheaper AMD-based office laptops with a surprisingly bright display.

Asus ROG Ally alternative. For around US$1000, the Aokzoe A1 costs as much as many full-fledged laptops. It certainly performs like one, but the fan noise and integrated buttons leave a lot to be desired.

Big bang for the buck. The NucBox K2 skips being flashy and "innovative" for cheaper starting prices while maintaining as much performance as possible. The accessible NucBox K2 should be a top pick for most home and HTPC users on a budget.

14-inch AMD convertible for US$550. The Inspiron 14 7435 2-in-1 retails for half the price of many popular alternatives with 360-degree hinges. There are cut corners along the way, of course, but casual home users or students likely won't mind many of the missing features.

Large and inexpensive 16-inch convertible. The 2023 Inspiron 16 2-in-1 comes in two versions: Inspiron 16 7630 with Intel and Inspiron 16 7635 with AMD. The latter is cheaper, but it entails a longer list of cut corners that users should be aware of when compared to the Intel version.
