Touchscreen laptops are now more common than they used to be five years ago. It’s a feature many laptop users enjoy especially business owners and people who love to work on the go. You will find more touchscreen features in 2-in-1 laptops and business laptops. Touchscreen laptops are famous for their incredible picture quality and ultraportable build. Before you sell your laptop and go out to buy a new one, make sure you ask yourself if you will be using this feature frequently. For example, hardcore gamers don’t require a touchscreen laptop – hence most gaming laptops don’t include them in their features.
That being said, let’s take a look at the best touchscreen laptops in 2019.
Hp Spectre x360 13
The Spectre x360 has been given a nickname by Hp called “gem cut.” This name is attributed to its gem-like build. The Spectre x360 can reflect light from all angles, which solves the gloss problem most touchscreen laptops have. It’s only 0.57 inches thick and weighs 2.9lbs which makes it easy to carry around. It’s 13-inch full HD screen is made of gorilla glass which is anti-scratch.
Its 1-watt low power full HD display comes in handy as it helps prolong its battery life – which lasts up to 16 hours during use – enough to handle a day’s task without the need to recharge. Its display is perfect everyday users but isn’t enough for graphic designers or video creators and editors.
For performance, the Spectre x360 comes with an 8th generation Intel core i7 8658 processor, 8GB RAM and 256GB SSD for seamless multitasking without any lag.
It also has two USB-C ports, one USB-A port and a MicroSD slot which is sufficient to connect a few devices at once.
The Hp Spectre x360 is the best touchscreen laptop on the market now.
Microsoft Surface Pro 6
The Surface Pro 6 is the best convertible laptop you can buy. Microsoft continues to lead the 2-in-1 laptop market, and once again they haven’t failed to impress us with the new Microsoft Surface Pro 6.
It has the best display features of all the laptops on this list. Its 12.3-inch screen has a resolution of 2,736 x 1,874 which gives you the brightest and sharpest colors for maximum video streaming. If you love watching TV shows and movies on your laptop, then this is for you. It has a sleek and premium design which makes it very comfortable to use – although you will find the keyboard a little cramped, but it’s nothing you can’t get used to.
The Microsoft Surface Pro 6 packs a punch with its 8GB RAM, 128GB SSD and an 8th generation Intel core i5. These features make it able to handle daily tasks without lagging.
The battery lasts for up to 9 hours and takes 2 hours to charge to full capacity – sufficient enough to get you through the day.
LG Gram
LG has also taken a strong stand in the touchscreen laptop market with the Gram, one of my favorites on this list. Its sleek design and powerful build combined with other great features make it secure a spot in this list.
The LG Gram has a 15-inch 1920X1080 screen is larger than other laptops in this list. Despite the size, it’s still ultra-portable, weighing 2.5lbs. LG also makes them with 13 and 14 inch displays.
