Some notebooks boast a long battery life, others stand out with an innovative design and still others make waves with their hard drive and memory. But finding a notebook that has all these features-and-more is tricky. In our reviews, we take design, keyboard, heat, ports, display, audio, performance, battery life, security, software and price into account, then size up a laptop’s rating out of five stars.

Lenovo ThinkPad T520

This notebook gives business users everything they need: fast boot times, a great keyboard, a high-resolution display and extra-long battery life.
