If you just want a great laptop to do everyday laptop tasks, you should get an ultrabook. By definition, ultrabooks are powerful, thin-and-light laptops with long battery life, which means many of them are good—but not all of them are worth buying. After testing hundreds of laptops over the past eight years and testing 22 ultrabooks so far in 2022, we’ve found that the HP Spectre x360 13.5″ with 16 GB of memory is the best Windows ultrabook for most people.

The best ultrabook
The Spectre x360 offers exceptional battery life, a tall touchscreen, and a reliable keyboard and trackpad. It’s also thin and light enough to slip in a bag and take anywhere.
We recommend
Samsung Galaxy Book2 360, smaller, with compromises

Smaller, with compromises
The Galaxy Book2 360 is a good alternative if you can’t find our top pick, the HP Spectre x360 13.5″, in stock. It’s light and compact, but its screen is smaller, its battery life is shorter, and its webcam is worse.
Another good choice
Asus Zenbook 14 OLED, the best value

The best value
The Zenbook 14 is the best laptop you can get for the price. But it won’t perform as well in a few years as our top picks, and it cannot be upgraded.
Budget friendly
Framework Laptop, a repairable and upgradable option

A repairable and upgradable option
The Framework Laptop is the best—and so far only—option if you want a laptop you can easily upgrade and repair. And it’s a great ultrabook, too.
Another good choice
Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 10, a businesslike ultrabook

A businesslike ultrabook
The Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon has a bigger screen, and it offers our favorite laptop keyboard and a variety of ports. But it costs more than you need to pay to get something great.
