Chuwi, a Chinese laptop manufacturer makes it to this list with their CoreBook Pro which comes with a 13-inch 2K IPS display, providing superior clarity and wide viewing angles. This laptop has the highest resolution display on this list albeit in a smaller 13-inches.

I’ll tell you what though, it’s subjectively also the sleekest laptop on this list for its aluminum-magnesium alloy chassis, which results in very good portability.

It comes with an Intel Core i3-6157U processor, 8GB of DDR4 RAM, and 25gGB of SSD storage; offering more than enough performance for everyday productivity tasks.
