Top rated Ultrabooks: January 2012
- — 07 February, 2012 10:38
Toshiba and HP still offer the best all-round Ultrabook models at the moment, with ASUS and Acer lagging a little due to some poor design choices, such as inferior input devices and a lack of built-in ports.
Acer recently released a Core i3-based Ultrabook, which is the first model to be offered for under $1000, a magical price point for these devices that should find mass appeal.
Dell won't be releasing its XPS 13 until March, but it's a very well built unit (the first Ultrabook with Gorilla Glass) that will definitely stand out in this market. Like the Toshiba Satellite Z830 and HP Folio 13, the Dell XPS 13 will be pitched at business users as well as regular consumers.
Lenovo has not made an announcement yet as to when its IdeaPad U300s will be available in Australia.
