Hp Envy x360 Laptops are some of the best at their job. Look for sales on these great folding notebooks.

Finding the right laptop can be daunting. The battery is the backbone of mobile computing. You should balance the smallest CPU and GPU you can get away with depending on your use case. The smaller the screen, the better the battery life. For Windows 11 you will want no less than 16gb of RAM for standard users and 32 for power users. (3 tasks or more at once) If you use tablets, or like the idea it’s great to find a laptop that can fold into tablet mode. Windows tablet mode is very capable today and well worth it.

After finding one you can extend the life of it tremendously by finding a computer shop to do a clean install of Windows. This removes all the bloatware and unneeded software that’s loaded by the manufactures. You will greatly enjoy the decision.
