Cheap laptops for home offices

The right laptop is the one you already have. The wrong one is a $2,000 mistake.

Most people overspend by 40%. A refurbished M-series MacBook Air or a mid-range ThinkPad handles 95% of home-office work. Buy Apple refurbished or last-gen ThinkPad direct — not from Amazon third-party sellers.

Editor's picks

The correct laptop for almost anyone. Silent (fanless), 15+ hour battery, and Apple's refurbished program includes a full one-year warranty. Buy direct from apple.com/shop/refurbished — not third-party.

Editor's Pick

The Windows answer. User-upgradable RAM and SSD, the best keyboard on any modern laptop, and it survives being thrown in a bag. Buy from Lenovo direct during a coupon cycle — never at MSRP.
