Latest Laptop Rankings: Foundation's Top-Picked Models for 2025
In the ever-evolving world of technology, laptops continue to be a crucial part of our daily lives. Here's a roundup of some notable models that have made a splash in 2023.
Huawei MateBook 14
The Huawei MateBook 14 is a compact notebook, boasting a 14.2-inch OLED touchscreen display and a lightweight design. With up to 25 hours of video playback, this device offers impressive battery life. However, it doesn't feature a 13-inch display or a thickness of less than two centimeters, nor does it have a foldable keyboard or a touchscreen that transforms into a tablet. The device's USB ports can initially be somewhat difficult to use.
HP 17-Cp3676ng
The HP 17-Cp3676ng is a larger laptop, sporting a 17.3-inch display, 1 TB PCIe NVMe SSD, and 16 GB RAM. Known for its easy handling and quick setup, this device is a solid choice for those needing ample storage and memory. However, some users have reported issues with its battery life.
Asus Vivobook i7 Max
The Asus Vivobook i7 Max also sports a 17.3-inch display, but with a more modest 500 GB internal storage and 40 GB RAM. This laptop is praised for its quiet fan, light weight, and fast Intel Core i7 processor. However, its webcam is considered mediocre, and the device lacks the high-quality HDR display found in other models.
Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 5
Among the Windows models, the Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 5 stood out, receiving an overall rating of 1.8. This device offers a good balance of performance and portability.
Microsoft Surface Pro 11. Edition
The Microsoft Surface Pro 11. Edition is a versatile laptop, featuring a 13-inch display, long battery life, touchscreen, and high-quality HDR display. Weighing just 895 g, this device is a great choice for those seeking a portable and powerful device.
Other Notable Mentions
The Lenovo Yoga 7 offers a 14-inch display, long battery life, and versatile functionality. However, some users have reported a loud fan.
The LG Gram 17, with its 17-inch display, large storage capacity, non-glare display, and portable design, is the editor's pick.
In 2025, the test results and recommendations from Stiftung Warentest and GQ for laptops are not detailed in the available sources, so no specific manufacturer can be named as a clear favorite in these particular rankings.
Lastly, the Apple MacBook M3 Pro 14 received the top rating of 1.5 and is the winner of the laptop test in 2023. The newer Apple MacBook Pro 16 M4 Pro was awarded "best computer ever tested" by Stiftung Warentest, due to its outstanding graphics performance, excellent screen, long battery life, and high computing power.
The Huawei MateBook 14 is available at Media Markt for 849 € (23% reduced) and on Amazon for 1.599 € (3% reduced).
