The Lenovo Yoga 9i (Gen 7) is a slim, 14-inch convertible with a 12th Gen Intel Core P series CPU and a design that will let it fit just about anywhere.

The Dell XPS 13 Plus brings radical design changes, including an invisible touchpad and capacitive function keys, in a beautiful chassis with solid performance.

With its first mainboard upgrade, Framework is proving it's serious.

The Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Yoga (Gen 7) has a bright, 16:10 screen, plenty of ports and converts into a tablet, but it is expensive and there aren't a ton of repair options.

The Dell XPS 15 (9520) is a high-performing Windows laptop with a sturdy build and OLED screen, but it's light on ports.
