Touchscreen laptops have gotten more and more user friendly over recent years. Big screens, backlighting, and some detachable keyboards make these laptops must-haves for everyone in the family. Easy enough for grandma to use, but powerful enough for kids and teens to have fun with, too. Check out our favorite touchscreen laptop choices.
Slim surface
The powerful battery keeps your computer ready for work or play for over 10 hours. Tap into that power with all these connections – USB-C, USB-A, as well as an accessory and docking station charging. Bluetooth compatible, too. If you want, you can detach the keyboard and the laptop and use it as a tablet – it’s even got a built-in kickstand. Inside it has 8GB of RAM, 128GB of memory, and the Intel Iris Plus Graphics coprocessor for a great display on the 12.3-inch screen.
For demanding programs
The HD camera and well-made microphone make online meetings a breeze. We love this large size touchscreen, at 15.6 inches, it’s the biggest of the bunch. It’s also got their TruBrite technology, which displays everything in great HD color and picture. The 12GB of RAM makes sure you have the fast memory you need. When it’s time to save your work, the 256GB Solid State hard drive gives you lots of room.
The multitasking master
We heard these touchscreen laptops were limited, but we edit big photos, open dozens of tabs, and keep easy access to hundreds of documents with ease. Chromebooks don’t have copious quantities of built-in storage or RAM, instead relying on a 32GB eMMc (embedded media card) and a turbo-boosting processor. Access with WiFi, Bluetooth, and USB ports, or use the built-in media card reader, and use for up to 10 hours on one battery charge.
Jack of all trades
Connect with the WiFi or Bluetooth combo adapter, the 720 pixel HD Webcam, and sound actually like yourself with the dual-array microphones. It runs on Windows 10, so you can access all your programs with confidence. It’s got an Intel graphics processor that works for basic gaming and graphics tasks, and 4 GB of RAM too. We love how bright the colors are on the 14-inch display.
Safeguard your passwords
We love the fingerprint access. It’s your password to log in and to get to all your stored passwords, too. Not only does it just take a second to log in, but it’s also the most secure way to keep your saved information safeguarded. Also, we aren’t sure why, but something about typing on a backlit keyboard just enhances the entire experience, especially when you’re pressing letters on a rose gold computer. We love the SD card reader to make it easy to link with all your peripherals – like cameras, projectors, and displays. It has 128 GB of memory and 8 GB of speedy LPDDR3 RAM.
