Dell 14S (Core Ultra 7 355, 16GB/512GB OLED)
Few Windows laptops last as long on a charge, though you give up graphics performance and screen brightness to get it.

Our verdict
The Dell 14S is a mid-priced 14-inch laptop whose main strength is endurance: PCWorld recorded nearly 36 hours of offline video playback, the longest it has measured. The OLED touchscreen is colorful and accurate, the build is solid and the port selection is good. Reviewers note that it is not especially quick for the money, the display is not very bright, and 3D performance is poor, so it suits office work and browsing rather than gaming or creative work.

- Exceptional battery life in video playback testing
- Color-accurate OLED touchscreen
- Solid build and good port selection
