RANKED: These are the best 13-inch laptops you can buy

If you’re looking for a 13-inch laptop with the right balance of performance, portability, and looks, your search is over.

The laptops in this list run on Intel’s powerful Core-i processors. You can find cheaper laptops, but they run on less powerful Core-M processors that are designed for mobile devices like tablets.

For Windows 10 laptops, we suggest you buy them from the Microsoft Store, so you can avoid annoying trial software and the manufacturer’s own software that bloats the computer’s storage and hampers its performance.

Check out the best laptops you can buy today.
