Laptop computers have almost reached a point of near perfection as most of them offer the latest specs and features. But with an increasing number of manufacturers rapidly upgrading their electrical offerings to satisfy hardcore technophobes, finding the right laptop for you can pose a bit of a problem. The market is overcrowded with devices offering you the same thing, so how do you tell them apart?
It’s important to remember that no two laptops are the same - some put more emphasis on specs and features, while others focus more on price and design. So without further ado, T3 unveils five laptops, each of which satisfy one of the five most important criteria: price, design, use, features and overall performance.
