I hate to say it, but my laptop is on its last leg. It is starting to do what my old one did, before it went out, sigh. And, since we just moved, I can’t afford another one at this moment.
It is starting to get HOT underneath, despite me lifting it up a bit when I use it. I think I need a fan blowing on it to keep it cool. And, it takes forever to ‘wake up’ when I open it. This is my sole way to make money, so it better not go out on my any time soon!
I have been searching online for good laptops to consider and I came across a few of them I am interested in. While searching online, I had to ask myself the question ‘What is the best laptop for me?’. I will need it for blogging, so it must be a good laptop. It must be reliable and it must be affordable.
Details on the latest laptops and 2 in 1 devices I am most interested in are below. These would also make great Father’s Day gifts!
*Lenovo ThinkCentre X1. This is a powerful desktop with the thinness of a laptop. Its 23.8” Full HD display tilts so people can easily find the best viewing angle for working from home, playing games with the family or watching their favorite shows. 6th generation Intel® Core™ processor. Starting at $845.10.
*Acer Aspire V Nitro. With an Intel® RealSense™ 3D camera, fast data speeds through Thunderbolt™ 3 and a 4K Ultra HD display, the Acer Aspire V Nitro* is poised to be a crowd pleaser. Its superior performance enables high processing activities such as video editing and gaming to your heart’s content. 6th generation Intel® Core™ processor. Starting at $799.99.
*The Samsung Galaxy TabPro S is the ultimate triple threat – a mobile, productivity and gaming device in one. One of the thinnest and lightest 2 in 1 devices on the market complete with a detachable keyboard, you get 10 hours of battery life on a single charge, meaning you can always work – and play – on the go. 6th generation Intel® Core™ processor. Starting at $899.99.
*HP Spectre x360 13.3”. Powerful performance packed into an ultra-thin convertible device, the HP Spectre x360 brings a new sense of productivity to your work environment with up to 13 hours of battery life.

Buddy Garrett says
I have no clue about which laptop to buy. I couldn’t afford one of these. I am from the pretechnology age. Back in my day electric typewriters were the latest technology. I use a desktop computer but like yours it has major problems. I have tried using laptops and tablets but I don’t know how to use them. My wife acts like I should know how to use one.
Dorothy Hubbard says
I need a new computer too, but just too costly for me right now. I myself would like the Lenovo Think Centre X1.
Kathy Pease says
I would probably choose the HP Spectre x360 13.3 it looks awesome and I have always had good luck with the brand.

I have an Acer Aspire laptop and love it. I have never had any problems with it which is always a good thing. But it is now about 4 years old so I will be upgrading soon to a newer Acer.

Susan Smith says
I would choose the HP Spectre x360! I have an HP laptop and really like it.
Barbara says
I have an Acer laptop that’s about two years old now and I’ve never had any problems. However – I don’t do anything graphics-driven, I don’t play video games on it and I haven’t loaded a ton of programs on it.
If you want something shiny with bells and whistles, I’d go with the Lenova. When my son was choosing his laptop, he was going to get that one (he ended up building his own desktop).
Tracie Cooper says
I am Apple girl now but prior to that I loved my HP computers!
Dana Rodriguez says
I have a Lenovo ThinkPad and so does my fiance’. I love mine. I would go with them or HP 🙂
Michelle Castagne says

Angela Saver says
I would love the 13 hours of battery life with the HP Spectre x360!
Min K says
I’d like the Samsung – Tablets have more versatility, not to mention portability.
Maryann D. says
I never had luck with laptops. My kids like their Apple Mac Books, they are expensive but they are lasting longer.
