    Where are Link’s to the laptops mentioned? You breeze through them so fast it’s useless to research any of them.

    MacBook Air is best I think 🤔

      na! at the price of its top model, the pro is much better beacause of its colling
      but as a web browsing machine it is good but spending that much on a web broswing machine i dont think so

    There’s the Vaio SX12 and SX14 (think they were refreshed in earlier 2020) for those who want something lightweight with pretty much any port imaginable. I know they come in at a premium and hardware may still be a bit outdated (no USB-C charging, tiny trackpad, no touchscreen); but they’re great for a dongle-free lifestyle and offer some nostalgia.

    Dell XPS13 2-in-1 is better than the YOGA. You totally whiffed on the Asus Zephyrus G14.

    I like 17″ laptops. I would like to see more of these.

    • Josh Goldman @ CNET

      July 6, 2020 at 6:31 pm

      I do, too, and I think we’ll start to see more of them now that PC makers are able to get the sizes and costs down. I reviewed the LG Gram 17 and it should’ve been on this list!

    Most of these aren’t computers, they’re fashion accessories. I program multi-million dollar industrial machines with a used Thinkpad X250 I bought on eBay for $196.

  14. Unleash your Tech

    July 5, 2020 at 3:31 pm

    why is there not a macbook pro 2020 on that list

    • vampthat

      July 6, 2020 at 6:09 pm

      My question exactly. Mine finally gave up the ghost; No problems for 7 years – until cup of milk spilled init a couple of weeks ago. A startle response from firecrackers.

    What about the new DELL XPS 15 & 17?

  24. Eean Remley

    July 5, 2020 at 7:37 pm

    It’s because they weren’t paid by asus lol this channel always cracks me up lol. His mic quality is garbage as it is

    • Josh Goldman @ CNET

      July 6, 2020 at 6:42 pm

      The Zephyrus Duo 15 is on the list, tho. And yeah, the mic isn’t great, but I just got a new one today, so 🤞 Thanks for watching!

    *Dell is the worst PC on the market. CNET is promoting junk.*
    *They also promote sketchy crApple products that are already exposed to be corrupt.*
    *I wont be using CNET for downloads anymore.*

    You have missed New Dell XPS 15 & Dell XPS 17 for 2020

    • CNET

      July 6, 2020 at 10:57 am

      Seems a bit over the top to also include every different size variant of the same model.

    • mzeeshan

      July 6, 2020 at 11:20 am

      @CNET Because Dell has added 17-inch laptop to its lineup after 10 years. Also, 15 and 17 inches have different series number. 17 inch has 9700 and 15 inch has 9500 series. Similarly XPS 13 is a totally different machine. They are completely different beasts and worth the review if you have not heard about them yet.

    July 6, 2020 at 9:04 am

    No g14, no razer blade, no xps 15 or 17, yeah… I’ll just wait for dave2D’s pick for 2020
