It’s 2018 and we  expect our laptops to do much more than they did in 2017.  We need them to be ultraportable, ultralight, ultrafast and  of course ultrasleek.  We also want them to be ultra-affordable. Choosing from the plethora of brands and models out there is not easy and sometimes you have to make do by sacrificing one of the features. Keeping affordability and special features in mind, check out our list of three of the best laptops of 2018.
