We are living in the age of innovation, and technology is advancing in leaps and bounds changing the way we communicate and interact. Also called a notebook computer, the laptop is a small personal computer that is battery- or Current (AC)- powered and is easily transported hence convenient to use in temporary places such as libraries or at meetings. It usually weighs under 5 pounds thus the ease in carrying it around. Each new day new models of laptops are introduced by various companies, so below we will have a brief overview of seven of the best laptop brands to look for in 2016.
Apple
Apple has been topping the lists of laptop brands for the last six years or so, and with their awesome tech support, raving reviews, their audio and preloaded software, their competition is left quite a distance behind. Their hardware is also top notch so if you can afford them, this is definitely the best deal.
Dell
Dell has been making steady improvements over the years and they currently sit near the top of the list due to their innovation and value as well as audio quality. They also got really good reviews and have nice technical support which is why they are recommended for those who would want quality but can’t or won’t cough up what is needed to buy an Apple laptop.
Asus
Asus will need to improve their tech support because this is one area that gives the most sway to ratings. They are, however, innovative and have great overall design. Their display is quite good and their system will generally not fail you as they offer okay quality.
Lenovo
Lenovo is also suffering from substandard technical support, and is getting average reviews with their new touchpads and keypads which have some new fun content-oriented settings. Their innovation and prices set them apart as well so you could consider them for something nice but average.
Samsung
Samsung, with their great technical support and quality build, offer good value for money with prices that are quite competitive. So if you are aiming to get a generally all-rounded product, go for Samsung and you will not be disappointed.
Toshiba
Toshiba is a brand that offers a wide variety of laptops over an equally wide range of prices, so there is literally something for everyone and this sharpens their competitive edge. Though they have only 90 days to offer technical support, their prices are even more competitive than Samsung’s so they are worth considering.
Alienware
Alienware is currently owned by Dell so their prices are a bit steep. For the hardcore gaming crowd though, this is the perfect laptop brand due to its performance, speed and heat management. Though a bit chunky in design, you are going to get great value in an Alienware laptop if you are a avid laptop gamer.
