UPDATE: Aug. 10, 2024, 12:42 p.m. EDT This story has been updated to add four new Windows laptop picks: The Microsoft Surface Laptop 7, the Lenovo Legion 9i, the Lenovo Yoga 9i (gen 9), and the HP Omnibook X.
The best Windows laptops run an impressive gamut, from 2-in-1s with new Qualcomm hardware to dual-display stunners and liquid-cooled gaming stations. (Some of them, dare we say, will tempt even the most devoted Apple Macbook disciples.) Users who need a new laptop for everyday productivity, creativity, or entertainment have no shortage of options. And that’s for better or worse.
To help you pick out your next PC from the crowded Windows market, we’ve broken out our best laptops rundown into this separate guide to the best Windows machines of 2024. All of these laptops have been rigorously hands-on tested by Mashable staff members or contributors for performance and build quality, and we stand by their value (or at least think they’re worth finding on sale).
Read on to learn more about our favorite models, including four new picks: The Microsoft Surface Laptop 7 is our new favorite Windows laptop for most people (unseating the HP Spectre x360 14), and the Lenovo Yoga 9i (Gen 9) is our new top 2-in-1 machine. The HP OmniBook X 14 is now the best mid-range Windows laptop we’ve tried. And finally, the Lenovo Legion 9i (Gen 9) is the gaming laptop we like most — but you should try to find it on sale.
FYI: We’ve listed the pricing and specs of our testing units, which may not apply to each laptop’s base model.
