CES is a big show for laptops, as many of the best models for the coming year appear first at the show. This year is especially notable, as both Intel and AMD are amid launching new generations of mobile processors (though it does seem most laptop makers are leaning towards Intel). Most of the laptops at CES 2024 look rather conventional, with a few exceptions, but dial the performance up to 11. There’s also a dizzying array of Mini-LED and OLED displays at the show. These are the best laptops of CES 2024.
1. LENOVO YOGA 9I PRO 16‑INCH (GEN 9)
Lenovo’s Yoga 9i line-up was, for my money, the most impressive Windows laptop line of 2023. It had everything: attractive design, a beautiful Mini-LED display, a nice keyboard and touchpad, and good all-around performance that included optional Nvidia graphics. Even the pricing was competitive.
The new Yoga 9i Pro 16-inch isn’t much differentprocessors (up to Intel Core Ultra 9) and a larger 84 watt-hour battery. In short, it’s quicker than last year’s model yet should last a tad longer on a charge.
