Frequently asked questions
What does the comparison show?
Price, spec score, the score for each component (performance, memory and storage, screen, portability e ports and how current it is) and the spec sheet. On each row with a rule, we mark the one that wins.
Why do some fields show "no data"?
Because the catalog doesn’t list that detail for the laptop, and we’d rather show the gap than make up a number. A field with no data on one side doesn’t count for either.
Where does the price of each laptop come from?
This is the lowest price from a trusted seller on the date we checked. It changes without notice. The buy button goes straight to the store, where the price of the day applies.

Where the numbers come from
Lowest price seen for the product on Amazon.com, shipped to New York 10001, on the day it was read, before sales tax. Who wins on each row: the highest value for score and for fields where more is better; the lowest for price. Fields where higher doesn’t mean better appear without marking a winner.
The comparison uses the catalog specs and the Radar spec score. It doesn’t measure real-world performance, durability or what buyers think.
