New laptop or ultrabook

[Mr_Jiminy]

Can one of you good people please recommend a decent lightweight laptop or ultrabook?

 

I say lightweight, because I'm currently lugging a Lenovo Thinkpad E530 around in a backpack... Whilst the laptop has been solid, my back is starting to feel the brunt.

I switched from chunky Lenovo's to a Surface Pro a couple of years ago which I love for it's power and portability. However, cost is a factor so it might help if you say what your budget is (or if you are very very lucky indeed, isn't!).

I've just got one of the awesome new Fujitsu Stylistic R726 tablet/laptops that compete nicely with the Surface and come with the keyboard as standard... Mine's the i7 / 8GB / 500GB SSD version and it's a dream, but the i3's and i5's are awesome too...

 

Well worth checking out...

I've just got an XPS 13 9350 after having an XPS 15 (L521x) which was 2.5Kg and it's made all the difference. A 15" laptop of that weight was just too much of a lump to lug around but the new XPS 13 is brilliant at only 1.2 Kg it has made all the difference.

You can pick them up in the Dell Outlet starting at £664.
