    I have a HP Pavilion. I don’t have the 2 in 1 model though. It only has a touchscreen. But it’s great, with a decent 2 to 3 hour battery life, a i5 processor, and backlit keys is great for me. And, it has Windows 10. Also, it’s pretty affordable at $500. I love this laptop.

    I like a mac people say that windows laptop sucks but at least microsoft still cares about the windows os line up not to mention you have more choices of a windows pc thatn a mac also saying that window suck is not true windows is windows and it better than macs and to end it windows pc hardware is better than mac ( that because there is not one company making those pc) What i just send go to ios vs android as well

  23. Prgls on October 31, 2019 at 6:06 pm

    WHO THE HELL WANTS TOUCHSCREEN TO LAPTOP! Pc is usable for KEYBOARD and MOUSE. And in laptop screen is FAR AWAY from hand. And i never want to play CS:GO with TOUCHSCREEN. Feels uncomfortable to try to reach touchscreen from chair where i sit. Computer is on table far away. I even use normal mouse. Its not good buying desktop pc because im on diferent places all over week.

  24. Emonadeo on October 31, 2019 at 6:07 pm

    Haha. A MacBook with Windows. Take that Apple! 😀

  25. YourTechGuy on October 31, 2019 at 6:09 pm

    this video is amazing

  26. Muh Khaidir Sakti Jenar on October 31, 2019 at 6:09 pm

    Poor Students need cheap laptops. Thanks to Microsoft OEMs

  27. Fractal Ryft on October 31, 2019 at 6:12 pm

    I honestly hate Dell and BestBuy for selling multiple faulty products. Both of my Dell laptops had malfunctioning USB ports, and both were extremely fragile. They both broke. And the trackpad was horrible. I don’t recommend BestBuy to many.

    Boo PC gooooo macs

  29. Abdullah Kharrat عبدالله خراط on October 31, 2019 at 6:14 pm

  31. LegeAE Playz on October 31, 2019 at 6:16 pm

    my old windows 7 i upgraded into windows 10 hehe

  32. midorijeon on October 31, 2019 at 6:17 pm

    Well, Windows 10 runs just fine on my Compaq from 10 years ago, so should I stick with it, or should I get a new laptop?
    My wishlist:
    Long battery life
    Good specs, enough to run GTA 5 without lag,
    HD display, I prefer at least 1080-1440p
    8GB RAM
    i5 or i7
    Mid-Range GTX
    As many USB 3.0 ports as possible

  33. Mujtaba Tarar on October 31, 2019 at 6:24 pm

    i gave my macbook as a gift to my cousin, thought that window 10 will make life better it done more than worst, mean while i am it expert my laptop usb,s is not working, wifi get disconnect after few hour and bla bla.

  34. Organist2020 on October 31, 2019 at 6:25 pm

    If you’re on a budget, go for either the Dell Latitude E6410, or the HP EliteBook 8540P, as they come in the low powered Core 2 Duo variants, which have Intel integrated graphics and get better battery life, or the 1st gen dual core Intel core i5s and i7s, which can be upgraded to 3rd gen quad gore extreme edition CPU’s, I recommend a PGA988 configuration with either the Nvidia Quadro NVS 3100M or 5100M, the 3100M is a 512MB card, and the 5100M is a 1 GB card, I have worked on both models, and with the 3rd gen extreme edition quad core Hyper Threaded i7, 8 GB of RAM, and a thorough overclocking of the CPU and GPU, either one’d make a great business laptop, as if you adjust the pointer speed in the Snaptics setup, it’s overall a great laptop, with a good tactile keyboard, sturdy construction, a decent mousepad and pointer nub paired with excellent audio, high definition screen. and plenty of upgradeable parts and easy disassembly, you could keep it going for quite some time.

    0:10 no, they are crying from Windows 10 uglyness and slowness. Also how it fucked up their PC.

  36. Calum Felstead on October 31, 2019 at 6:25 pm

    Your Mac book is no where near as powerfull

  37. Brian Hartman on October 31, 2019 at 6:26 pm

    I have an Asus Q503ua. It’s a good laptop. 15.6", i5 processor dual core processor, and a touchscreen.

    I do use the touchscreen a lot. Sometimes it’s just easier to use touch than it is to use the touchpad or a mouse/trackball.

  38. Mudassar Gamez on October 31, 2019 at 6:27 pm

    Just get a desktop crying lady with hp. You can us it FOREEVER without charging

  39. Yanderu on October 31, 2019 at 6:28 pm

    Well then a macbook can count as Windows ten because it can run it SO MACS RULE

  40. Lyrical Languages on October 31, 2019 at 6:30 pm

    Hard to see windows in dear the bloat ware Windows is bloatware

  41. Raja Chowdhary on October 31, 2019 at 6:30 pm

    I dunno about others, but I found this lady "SEXY".

  42. Dartz on October 31, 2019 at 6:31 pm

    is a $199 acre Good for windows 10 home basic?

  43. Xeogin on October 31, 2019 at 6:31 pm

    Literally the worst tech video I’ve every seen. Absolutely cringe-worthy. Will avoid WSJ from now on.

  44. Jonathan on October 31, 2019 at 6:33 pm

    Best Windows 10 laptop? Best Windows 7 laptop? Best Linux laptop? Best laptop?
    Thinkpad X230. $200-$300, fully user upgradable, 20 hour battery life with slice battery, trackpoint much superior to Apple-style trackpad, extremely durable, best non-mech/spring keyboard in history, just as fast as modern ultrabooks thanks to non-ULV CPU, and just a little heavier. Stop with new computer propaganda. XPS 13 and other Macbook copycats are extremely ugly and a big waste of money.

  45. Che The Super Hedghog on October 31, 2019 at 6:33 pm

    100 un% WSJ ,windows 7 is better i know it was lately is been 3years Look at windows7

  47. Daniel Armando Huesca Garcia on October 31, 2019 at 6:38 pm

    Are you sure that’s not the sound of Windows Vista users?
