In the 6 Nov 2026 catalog, the median price of the 58 models in the segment is £449, and prices range from £182 to £640. The final price is the one at the store.

Among the models in the segment on 6 Nov 2026, the highest spec score is the MSI Prestige 13.3″ Core Ultra 7 258V: 8.5, at £559. The one with the lowest price is the Asus Chromebook 15.6″ Celeron, at £182. Spec score doesn’t measure real-world performance or durability.

Models with at least one version whose lowest collected price is £650 or less are included. Each model counts once: if it has more than one version within the rule, the price is that of the cheapest version and the others show on the card.

The range is cumulative: everything that costs less is in it too. To see only what costs between two values, use the price range table on this page or the chart’s price filter.

From cheapest to most expensive, the laptop that has a higher spec score than all the cheaper ones in the segment makes the line. Anything that costs more and has an equal or lower score is left out. The line doesn’t say which laptop to buy: it only shows which ones don’t lose on both score and price at once.

Every day, with each collection: numbers, chart, ranking and the "What changed" section are rebuilt with the day’s catalog. This edition is from 6 November 2026.
