10 . Not everyone needs or can afford the latest, most powerful laptop out there. For simple tasks, such as running web-based apps, browsing the Internet, or sending an email, a low-powered, low-priced laptop fits the bill. That’s where budget laptops come in.

You get what you pay for. Budget laptops often come with small drive space, low memory, and slow processors. You won’t be able to use them to run the latest graphics-heavy computer games, but for giving your kids access to the web, sending a teen off to college with a computer for their studies or for you to stay up-to-date with Facebook, a budget laptop could be an ideal purchase. Our top pick is the HP Envy x360 15z (available at HP), a 2-in-1 laptop with high quality and smart performance that can be found for under $700 and competes with laptops that cost twice as much. Many of our picks are even more affordable, so there’s sure to be a laptop for anybody. These are the best budget laptops we tested, ranked in order:

HP Envy x360 15z

Lenovo Chromebook Flex 5

HP Stream 14

Acer Chromebook Spin 514

Asus Zenbook 14

Acer Aspire 5

Google Pixelbook Go

HP Chromebook x360

Lenovo Ideapad 3
