| Bottom line | The first big high-design laptop of 2012, the
HP Envy 14 Spectre is a bold experiment that largely succeeds, if you're willing to pay a premium for it. | A high-end laptop at a mainstream price, the
HP Envy Spectre XT gets much of the look and feel right, with only a few missteps. | The Lenovo IdeaPad Yoga 13 is a convertible touch-screen laptop/tablet that most importantly doesn't compromise the traditional laptop experience. | One of the few standout products from the first wave of
Windows 8 laptops, the Acer Aspire S7 proves that Apple does not have a monopoly on great design. | For those looking for something more than a feature-light ultrabook, the gamer-friendly Lenovo IdeaPad Y500 is close to brilliant, and several configurations are currently available at a deep discount -- but I can't believe it doesn't have a touch screen. |
