Laptops for private AI

We list laptops from the specifications their makers publish, and show speeds that others have published where they exist. Speeds are estimates unless a laptop has a Measured badge, which means we also ran our own test on it. 359 laptops listed, 1 also measured by us, 166 component chips covered. Try the finder.

Each laptop we test gets a score out of 100 across six everyday business jobs. Higher is better. Open a scorecard for the plain-English verdict on each job.

Price is the certified refurbished price when we have one, otherwise the new price. Price per point is price divided by score, using public market prices, not our quotes.
