Best Ultraportable Laptops

Ultraportables are small and lightweight laptops, usually with a screen size of 12 inches or less and weigh 3 pounds or less, although some 13-inch laptops may also be categorized as ultraportable. Thin-and-light laptops are typically more expensive than their mainstream-sized counterparts, with a notable exception of Netbooks – small and inexpensive computers with Linux or Windows XP that run on Intel Atom CPUs.

One common denominator is that ultraportable laptops are generally less powerful than larger ones because of their miniaturized hardware, but that’s a compromise you’ll have to live with for excellent mobility.
