The best laptop is going to vary greatly depending on what you need and your budget. If you're a content creator, something with powerful specs and great battery life like the MacBook Pro is probably for you, and options like the Acer Swift X are also great, but these are expensive. For gaming, it's generally better to have the highest specs, but that can get pretty expensive. The Asus ROG Strix G16 is probably the best gaming laptop on this list right now, but there are a lot of gaming laptops for different price ranges that will still do the job very well running most modern games. You'll generally want something with at least an 12th-generation Intel Core processor and Nvidia GeForce RTX 30 series graphics. If you want a great laptop to watch movies, something worth looking for is an OLED display like the one on the Acer Swift 3 OLED. Of course, there are great screens that aren't OLED, like the MacBook Air, but OLED is almost always better. For browsing the web and general use, almost any laptop will suffice, but it's always worth looking for a nice screen and the latest specs. Everything we recommend here is at the very least good enough. There are also Chromebooks, which tend to be much weaker in terms of specs, but they make up for it because ChromeOS is such a lightweight operating system. These are machines designed almost exclusively for browsing the web, and they don't need a lot of expensive hardware.
