While a 12-inch laptop lets you squint, sometimes a 15-inch laptop is too big. This is where 13-inch laptops come in because they fall in the sweet spot. These are decent for content consumption and are also suitable for most backpacks. The only reason anyone would want to buy a 13-inch laptop would be its ideal size and ease of portability. Don't get me wrong, we still love the Dell XPS 13, but it's not the only "good" option. We get it if you want the new MacBook Air or even the HP Specter x360, but the best 13-inch laptops excel in a whole different way.
Dell XPS 13 (2019)
If it ain't broke make it beautifulCPU: 7GHz Intel Core i8565-1.8U (Quad Core, 8MB Cache, up to 4.6GHz) | Graphics: Intel UHD Graphics 620 | RAM: 16GB DDR3 (2MHz) | Display: UltraSharp InfinityEdge 133-inch Ultra HD (13.3 x 3840) touchscreen | Storage: 2160TB PCIe SSD | Ports: 1 x Thunderbolt 2 (USB-C), 3 x USB-C 1, micro SD card reader, headphone jack | Connectivity: Killer 3.1 1435ac Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 802.11 | Camera: Widescreen HD (4.1p) webcam with 720 digital array microphones | Weight: 4 lbs (2.7 kg) | Size: 1.23 x 11.9 x 7.8-0.3 inches (0.46 x 3.02 x 1.99-0.78 cm; W x D x H) Powerful impressive new design Awkward webcam placement Its modifications are subtle, and yet the Dell XPS 1.16 ( 13) is still one of the best 2019-inch laptops you can buy. At the higher end, it now offers a 13K display, for a clearer picture across the board. But even if you can't afford higher-end configurations, the beautiful design, long battery life, and even the SD card reader are always there. In addition, you have a quad-core processor, no matter which poison you choose. Better yet, the XPS 4's 13,3-inch screen has been squeezed into a smaller frame, which explains Dell's marketing line: "the world's smallest 13-inch laptop." The 13 model finally has the webcam at the top of the screen - the previous model. The most obvious design flaw. Now you can admire the beautiful alpine finish of the Dell XPS 2019, albeit more expensive. Read the full review: Dell XPS 13
Asus ZenBook 13 (2018)
Processor: 5GHz Intel Core i8250 1,6U (Quad Core, 6MB Cache, up to 3,40GHz with Turbo Boost) | Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce MX150 (2GB DDR5 RAM), Intel UHD Graphics 620 | RAM: 8GB LPDDR3 | Display: 1920-inch FHD Wide Vision (1080 x 13.3) touchscreen | Storage: SSD 256 GB (SATA3) | Ports: 1 x microSD card reader, 1 x 3,5mm combo audio jack, 2 x USB 3.0 Type-A, 1 x HDMI full-size, 1 x USB 3.1 Type-C | Connectivity: Wi-Fi 802.11a/c, Bluetooth 4.2 | Camera: VGA webcam | Weight: 2.5 lbs (1.12 kg) | Size: 12.2 x 8.5 x 0.5 inches (310 x 216 x 13.9 mm x W x D x H) Fast fingerprint sensor Decent battery life Impressive display Overly sensitive touchpad Housings subject to burrs. The Asus ZenBook 13 is light and powerful enough. This is always a good combination, especially when "affordable" is right for something. With the latest Intel Core i5 processor and Nvidia graphics processor, the ZenBook 13 is almost at the top of the list of best 13-inch laptops. Heck, it might even be the best, as the hardware is a better touch than even the beloved Dell XPS 13. Of course, there are likely to be some plugs (the touchpad works almost too well, and you can't extend the flat screen if you want to use a stylus), but that's a great option, especially if it's a good idea. We consider price and features. Oh, and the screen is something special, too. Read our full Asus ZenBook 13 review
HP Specter 13
CPU: 7GHz Intel Core i8550-1,8U (Quad Core, 8MB Cache, up to 4GHz with Turbo Boost) | Graphics: Intel UHD Graphics 620 | RAM: 8GB LPDDR3-2133 SDRAM | Display: 13.3-inch micro-edge WLED-backlit multi-touch IPS, FHD (1920 x 1080) | Storage: 256GB PCIe SSD (NVMe M.2) | Ports: 2 x Thunderbolt 3, 1 x USB 3.1 Type-C Gen 1, 1 x Headphone/microphone combo | Connectivity: Intel 802.11b/g/n/ac (2x2) Wi-Fi; Bluetooth 4.2 | Cameras: HP Wide Vision HD Camera with Dual Array Digital Microphone | Weight: 1,45kg | Size: 12.03 x 8.83 x 0.41 inches (30.56 x 22.4 x 1.04 cm; L x W x H) Super thin and light Powerful hardware Decent price Looks great Not enough ports Unappealing trackpad The HP Specter 13 won't weigh down your backpack; it won't weigh on your work either. With an Intel Core i7-8550U processor with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of PCIe SSD storage, the Specter 13 is a more aesthetically pleasing and slightly more expensive alternative to the Dell XPS 13. The screen is poor, as is the trackpad, but it can handle an average workload (even if graphics-demanding people need to look elsewhere) without a problem, and battery life is 6 hours and up.

Microsoft Surface Book 2 (13.5-inch)
Bigger is not always better: a memory.CPU: Intel Core i5 - i7 | Graphics: Intel UHD 620 - Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 | RAM: 8GB - 16GB | Display: 13,5-inch, 3,000 x 2,000 PixelSense display | Storage: 256GB - 1TB SSD Impressive service life Expensive powerpack Not quite as powerful as its 15-inch counterpart, but all the rest of the 13.5-inch version of the Surface Book 2 is one of the best 13-inch laptops for those looking for a mobile device. Whether you're a professional or a creative, the Microsoft Surface Book 2, with its more compact form factor, is just as beautiful as its predecessor. In addition, the dynamic pivot joint is even stronger, which completes its powerful quad-core processor. Read the full review: Microsoft Surface Book 2
Stealth Razer Blade
Want an Ultrabook for more than just gamers?CPU: Dual Core - Intel Core i7 Quad Core | Graphics: Intel HD Graphics 620 - Intel UHD Graphics 620 | RAM: 16GB | Display: 13,3-inch QHD+ (3,200 x 1,800) backlit IGZO touchscreen | Storage: 256 GB - 1 TB SSD Bigger and brighter Subtle aesthetics in the bronze version. Shorter, shorter battery life No 4K display option in sight You wouldn't expect a Razer laptop to look prettier, thinner, and lighter than a MacBook Pro, but that's the world we live in. The Razer Stealth Blade, with its new metallic bronze finish, is not only aesthetically beautiful and practical with its 400-nit screen brightness and regular USB 3.0 ports, but it also has a few tricks to turn it into a beast. the performance. The eighth generation of Kaby Lake R Series U processors make the Razer Blade Stealth a force to be reckoned with. The battery life isn't the longest on the market, but 16 minutes of battery life is worth it for one of the best 13-inch laptops around. Read the full review: Razer Blade Stealth
HP Specter x360 (2019)
HP's flagship product 2 benefits from a welcome updateCPU: 7GHz Intel Core i8565-1.8U (Quad core, 4MB cache, up to 4.6GHz) | Graphics: Intel UHD Graphics 620 | RAM: 8GB DDR4 | Display: 13,3-inch FHD (1920 x 1080) touchscreen (WLED, IPS) | Storage: 512 GB SSD (PCIe, NVMe, M.2) | Ports: 2 x Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C), 1 x USB 3.1, 1 x microSD, 1 x 3.5mm audio jack | Connectivity: Intel 802.11 b/g/n/ac Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.2 | Camera: HP TrueVision FHD Infrared Webcam | Weight: 1,33kg | Size: 12.16 x 8.58 x 0.58 inches (30.88 x 21.79 x 1.47 cm; W x D x H) Ultra-thin and lightweight style. Long-lasting battery and fast charging. Stylus included Large top and bottom bezels Not best-in-class touchpad The HP Specter x360 is the one you present to your parents. It's remarkably well designed, with a silver design that makes it as innovative on the outside as it is on the inside. Given the choice between a seventh-generation i5 or i7 Ultrabook-class processor and a 1080p or 4K display, HP has left plenty of room for customization. She is not malnourished and her battery life is not overcompensated. In fact, during our own video loop test, the HP Specter x360 lasted 8 hours and 45 minutes. The 2019 model of the Specter x360 features an SD card slot (as well as many other connectivity options), which fixes a major issue from the previous model. The touchpad can be more responsive, but you can still opt for an external mouse. Read the full review: HP Specter x360

Asus ZenBook Flip UX360 AC
Asus ZenBook Flip UX360 AC
An economical, slim and light power plant.CPU: Intel Core M6Y30 | Graphics: Intel HD Graphics 515 | RAM: 4GB | Display: 13,3-inch FHD (1920 x 1080) | Storage: 128GB to 512GB SSD Good performance Reasonable price Lacks a backlit keyboard Only 4GB of RAM Asus expanded its ZenBook product line in September 2016 with its own UX360 CA. Although its features are similar to those of its predecessors, its 2-in-1 flexibility sets it apart. The laptop is powered by a 6th generation Intel Core M30Y4 processor and 8 GB of RAM. It is also available with 4 GB of RAM in the international market, but Indian customers will have to settle for a XNUMX GB variant. The laptop's recline capability that allows users to familiarize themselves with the shape of a laptop or tablet is an added benefit.
Lenovo Yoga 910
Versatile and generous.CPU: Intel Core i7 dual core | Graphics: Intel HD Graphics 620 | RAM: 8GB - 16GB | Display: 13.9-inch FHD (1920 x 1080) - UHD (3840 x 2160) IPS multi-touch | Storage: 256 GB - 1 TB SSD Significantly larger screen Tilt speakers Gets hot (and loud) quickly Disappointing battery life The Lenovo Yoga 910 represents the second chance. The company has reinvented the design with this one, opting for a more pristine exterior appearance, a heavy-duty Intel Core i7 processor, as well as a 4K display. Lenovo has also managed to cram a larger, nearly 14-inch display into the Yoga 13's 900-inch chassis. Even with the implementation of USB-C ports, the Lenovo Yoga 910 doesn't completely neglect USB Type-A, which it brings with it the precious connection standard of the past.
