High-quality waste-laptop. The Acer Aspire Vero 15 surprises not only with a QHD camera, long runtimes and high performance, but it also features a robust and attractive design, good input devices and a bright, colorful display. Furthermore, the office laptop never gets too loud and depending on the model you choose, the price is right, too.

The brakes are off: The laptop with that special edge is back. In the new 18 mm thin Zenbook, Asus has installed extremely powerful hardware and finally lets it off the leash. The Nvidia GeForce RTX 4080 in our test unit has up to 140 watts at its disposal and is thus in no way inferior to its siblings in many gaming laptops.

Massive CPU upgrade. The MacBook Pro 16 gets a massive performance boost thanks to the new M3 Max SoC and besides a more powerful GPU, the CPU offers the biggest gains. The SDR brightness of the 16-inch Mini-LED screen was increased as well. We review the high-end MacBook in the new Space Black color.

Mid-range gamer with an entry-level GPU. The gaming laptop Predator Helios Neo 16 from Acer is supposedly a cheaper alternative to the regular Helios 16, while still offering a variety of mid-range features, such as an extremely robust and sleek case, lots of connectivity options, a desktop-class CPU, as well as a powerful cooling system which makes use of liquid metal. In this review, you can find out whether this concept is a success.

Lightweight 64 GB RAM. The Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon G11 is the first model of this line with up to 64 GB of RAM. To get this amount of RAM, users have to buy a version with the most powerful P28-CPU, the i7-1370P. Unfortunately, as our review shows, this CPU is ill-suited for this elegant business laptop.

Debut for Apple's M3 SoC. Apple launched its new MacBook Pro models and the old MacBook Pro 13 is not longer available. Instead, there is a new entry-level model of the MacBook Pro 14 with the base M3-SoC and 8 GB RAM for $1599. However, there are some compromises, especially in terms of connectivity as well as the cooling performance.

Compact gaming PC! Compact mini PCs with dedicated graphics cards aren't all too widespread at the moment. Nevertheless, Minisforum's Neptune Series HX77G is a compact mini PC with an AMD Ryzen 7 7735HS and an AMD Radeon RX 6600M. We have taken a closer look at this device and have analyzed its performance with the help of a variety of benchmarks and current games.

Harmonious. According to Schenker, the XMG Pro 16 Studio is a "professional workstation for content creation". The specs fit: Core i9, an RTX 4070, Thunderbolt 4 and a 16:10 display (QHD+, 240 Hz). A vapor chamber supposedly ensures optimum heat dissipation and quiet cooling.

Debut for the RTX 2000 Ada. Lenovo no longer offers the ThinkPad X1 Extreme. Instead, the identically built ThinkPad P1 Gen 6 takes over the tasks as a powerful multimedia computer or mobile workstation from now on. We tested the new ThinkPad P1 Gen 6 with the professional Nvidia RTX 2000 GPU and the matte IPS panel with a refresh rate of 165 Hz.

Latecomer. The X15 aims to woo buyers with its price of around US$1,050 - however, it only features tech from 2022 (Alder Lake). Our review will reveal whether this laptop is a real bargain or if it is simply not worth the money.

Raptor Lake H45 and 90 Hz display. Schenker has upgraded its compact Vision 14 Ultrabook with an Intel Raptor Lake processor and an optional GeForce RTX 3050. In review today is the iGPU variant, which achieves very long runtimes thanks to a 99 Wh battery and scores with very good maintenance options.

Raptor without endurance. Lenovo puts an OLED panel into its ThinkPad T14s Gen 4 Intel. This screen delivers a great picture quality, but an important aspect of this business laptop is suffering from the screen choice: the battery life.

More ports and noisier fans. Microsoft’s Surface Laptop Studio is a pretty unique product and the second generation gets much faster components as well as more ports, but the foldable display is identical. This is also the case for the non-existent maintenance options as well as the high price. Update: Additional battery test results

Raptor X. Lenovo upgrades its ThinkPad X13 Gen 4 with an OLED screen and 5G. With these premium features, it is much closer to the ThinkPad X1 Carbon - without giving the X13 any unique idenity.

Quiet and expensive. Apple has updated its desktop computer, the Mac Studio, which is now fitted with the faster M2 Max or M2 Ultra SoCs. We have tested the base model with the M2 Max and the 30-core GPU as well as 32 GB RAM.

T raptor. The 2023 version of the Lenovo ThinkPad T14 uses Intel CPUs of the Raptor Lake series. With the new CPUs, the power usage seems to be lower compared to the predecessor, but apart from this, the Lenovo ThinkPad T14 Gen 4 Intel does not seem like a big upgrade.

The convertible laptop for bookworms. What if you could have both a convertible laptop and an eReader all in one? The ThinkBook Plus Twist is a dream come true for bookworms as long as you can accept some caveats.

Freedom of choice. Alienware's gaming notebook provides an extremely flexible hardware configuration. Our test device offers lots of performance (Core i7-13700HX, GeForce RTX 4060) and a decent level of equipment. Battery runtimes, however, are unable to keep pace with the times.

M2 with Thunderbolt 4 and Wi-Fi 6E. Apple's Mac Mini now includes the latest M2 and M2 Pro CPUs, delivering plenty of power for a compact desktop. Since upgrades are costly, like they are for MacBooks, the small device can get pricey.

Look ma, no power brick! With so many mini PCs to choose from nowadays, the IdeaCentre Mini will need something up its sleeve to really stand out from the crowd. Luckily, its integrated PSU and inexpensive price of under US$700 for the Core i7 option might just be enough.
