Mar 13, 2021 08:00 EST · Hot! with 13 comments Panasonic introduced its first TOUGHBOOK 33 back in mid-2017, and now the mark II is here. Its got Comet Lake processors, a 3:2 display that gets up to 1,200-nit brightness, and it now comes with 16GB RAM and 512GB storage in the base model. But thats not all, because it has a detachable display, which sounds a lot like Microsofts Surface Book. One of the big differences here is that the TOUGHBOOK 33 is rugged. Its not even ...

The new Razer Book is the company's first attempt at making a PC that's built for productivity, rather than gaming. It has a 16:10 display, 11th-generation processors, and is Intel Evo certified.

Feb 21, 2021 08:00 EST · Hot! with 5 comments The story on the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Nano is that it weighs in at 1.99 pounds. Thats the headline. Its the fifth entry into the current ThinkPad X1 lineup, which is reserved for the best of the best, and its all about being compact, thin, and light. It was announced back in September, but now its finally hitting shelves. Typically, a laptop that weighs under two pounds comes with some serious compromises, using a Y-series proc...

Feb 14, 2021 08:12 EST · Hot! with 3 comments Acers Swift 5 series is one that Ive really come to enjoy. While its made out of a magnesium alloy, it doesnt look or feel cheap like we see from its competition. The last one I reviewed came in this pretty blue chassis with gold accents. The new one that Acer sent me has the same gold accents, but the color is called Mist Green. Its beautiful. In fact, green and gold is one of my favorite color combinations for products. See...

Gigabyte Aorus 17G Review: A real gaming laptop thats amazingly quiet It brings awesome GeForce RTX 3080 performance without all the noise. Credit: Gordon Mah Ung Gigabyte’s Aorus 17G gaming laptop, with its high-end parts and sharp-angled design, looks like it should be loud, but it’s not. It’s amazingly quiet, actually. How quiet? On its default fan profile we registered the laptop at barely 38 dB. That’s barely louder than the background noise of our office in the daytime....

Source: Daniel Rubino / Windows Central Many people associate VAIO with Sony, but the company has been independent since around 2014 (Sony is now a minority partner). The famed Japanese laptop maker has been making a comeback with ultra-portable designs like the recent SX12, which is sold in the U.S. Japan, and Brazil. But perhaps the most famous laptop it made is VAIO Z – the premium laptop last seen back in 2017. The VAIO Z is now back for 2021, and it is honestly ridiculous (in a good way)...

First introduced in 2017, the Panasonic TOUGHBOOK 33 (CF-33) has gone to be the best-selling laptop and rugged tablet on the market. It is now refreshed for 2021 with more options, improved performance, and the latest tech for first responders and those in the military. Here's our review of this supremely badass Windows PC.

Source: Daniel Rubino / Windows Central When Brydge offered me a review sample for its forthcoming SPX+ Bluetooth keyboard, I was a bit baffled. Why would you want this over the standard Surface Pro X Keyboard or Surface Pro X Signature Keyboard with Slim Pen Bundle? My fellow writers pointed out that it turns Surface Pro X into a proper laptop. That refreshed my memory: not everyone loves the Surface Pro 2-in-1 design. Some find it uncomfortable or unwieldy to use in the lap. I am not one of...

Source: Daniel Rubino / Windows Central Business laptops are different from consumer and prosumer models, but those lines have blurred over the last few years. The EliteBook line, specifically the 1000 series, is HPs range of premium enterprise-level Ultrabooks that compete with Dells Latitude and Lenovos famous ThinkPad line. The HP EliteBook x360 1040 G7 is, as the name implies, the seventh generation of this 14-inch convertible PC. It supports inking, optional 4G LTE, multiple display config...

Source: Daniel Rubino / Windows Central Razer has been making gaming laptops for many years now, expanding the line from just the Stealth to the Blade 15 and Blade 17 Pro (and the RTX Studio editions too). Watching how Razer evolved its design and fix mistakes has been a fun part of my job, as the company clearly listens to both fans and reviewers. One side effect of the popularity of Razers laptops has been non-gamers wanting a version. The company has finally listened with Book 13, a name tha...
