We included laptops of all types and from every possible budget. So without further delay, let’s have a look at TechnoBugg’s Best 5 Laptops of 2020 :
1. Apple MacBook Air with Apple M1 Chip
Topping the list we have Apple’s new MacBook Air. On the contradiction to last year, we now have the machine being powered by the company’s in-house chip as opposed to an Intel processor. With the new Apple M1 chip, the machine has gained quite a lot of muscle in terms of performance and power. Everyone who purchased one is head over heels thanks to the class-leading performance. With the new chip, Apple also claims to offer double the battery life that Intel-powered MacBooks provided.
Even with the existence of a Pro model, we would suggest you get MacBook Air, as there’s not much differentiating the two. On the outside, pretty much everything remains exactly the same as the previous generation. That said, if you have specific software requirements, it’s better to look at our other recommendations as the developers are still working on releasing builds of their software for the new chipset.
