| Bottom line | The Acer Aspire V5-171-6867 crams the horsepower of a full-fledged budget ultrabook into an 11-inch ultraportable, for several hundred dollars less than most equivalent products. It's a great budget laptop to consider, but sacrifices have been made to shrink down that much computer into a tiny package. | For under $700, the Acer Aspire V5 proves that a touch screen can work in a budget-priced
Windows 8 laptop without cutting too many corners. | Considering the total package of features and price, the Acer Aspire M5 feels like a safe bet if you want an all-encompassing
Windows 8 laptop with touch that won't cost a fortune. | The ultrabook-like
HP Envy Sleekbook 6 is the sharpest-looking $599 laptop you're likely to find, although you'll pay a performance premium. | With only a handful of 11-inch laptops still available, serious travelers are flocking to ultrathin 13-inch models instead. But the low price and good battery life of the Sony Vaio E keep it from being counted out. |
