We recently reviewed the 13-inch version of the latest MacBook Air and came away with a clear conclusion: it’s a fantastic computer that is simply not suitable for heavy work. The main reason for this is its passive, fanless cooling, which causes its performance to decrease significantly under sustained load. Furthermore, we found its base storage to be slower than most modern SSDs on the market. This brings us to its larger sibling. The critical question is, does the bigger chassis of the 15-inch MacBook Air help with cooling, and have any of its other underlying problems been solved? L[...]

Today, we have one of the best laptops in terms of value. Of course, when we say the best, we mean when it comes to specs and price. Later on in the review, you're going to learn if the ASUS Vivobook Go 15 (E1504F) delivers on the expectations.So, what are these expectations, and why do we have a reason to be excited about this machine? Well, the first thing that comes to mind is the display. You can find the device equipped with an OLED panel. Yep, that's right, this technology has come to the low-end part of the market too.On the other hand, if you want to keep the price low, you wo[...]

Well, the Lenovo IdeaPad 1 (15", 2023) is designed to fulfill your specific needs without breaking your budget.As expected, it is not a stellar piece of machinery, nor it is something that will make Apple's Macbooks hide in the closet.

Right at the start of this review, we have to tell you that you need to adjust your expectations with the price tag of this notebook. The ASUS E410 is not your average Zenbook or ROG device. Instead, it is aimed at people, who need a first laptop (including children), or individuals, who cannot afford to spend lots of money on the bare minimum.One would think that this is the easiest notebook to make in a manufacturer's lineup. However, we would argue that it is the hardest one - premium devices and heavy-duty gaming machines require a lot of R&D money, but at the end of the day, they[...]

It's clear like night and day that you don't need a high-end or even a mid-range laptop for normal light tasks. A modest 15W CPU is more than enough if it's accompanied by 16GB of RAM and a decent SSD. The HP 15 (15-fc0000) is an inexpensive device that will do the job for people who want to get a notebook on a budget for browsing the Web and and playing light games from time to time. However, you have to pay attention to the specs before buying because the machines with Zen 2 CPUs are tied with up to 16GB of soldered RAM while the ones with Zen 3 chips rely on a pair of SODIMMs which makes th[...]

Lenovo is a master of affordable laptops. While the IdeaPad 1 15 might seem like a drop in the ocean of the company's portfolio, we have a feeling it has a main role in the future sales numbers. If we look at Lenovo's laptops as Game of Thrones characters, the IdeaPad 1 15 will be Bran Stark. It knows that it has to compete with the likes of John Snow (Legion 5), or Daenerys Targaryen (IdeaPad 3) to be the king (or queen), and occupy Sales Landing.And despite there being similarly low-priced options like the V15 or the V155, the IdeaPad 1 15 has one major advantage - the IdeaPad name, whi[...]

With any new machine from the Californian giant, everything appears incredibly simple and effortless, and the new M4 MacBook Air is no exception. But as with its predecessors, beneath the polished surface lie hidden pitfalls that you can only uncover in a detailed, independent review like ours. Of course, the machine is fantastic, but from its official presentation, no matter how detailed it may seem, you won't learn about its downsides, or more importantly, how to configure it to get the absolute most for your money.One piece of truly great news is that Apple has finally addressed a major[...]
