HP Spectre x360
The latest HP hybrid offering lands with a large 15-inch screen and a 360-degree hinge, and boasts a 4K-resolution display. The Windows-powered, Intel Core i5- or i7-enabled laptop weighs in at 4 pounds but has a durable, strong shell, and has a long-lasting battery of 9.5 hours on the highest-resolution setting. HP says it's the thinnest and lightest hybrid for the display size.

Razer Blade Stealth
Razer's latest machine, the Blade Stealth, doesn't just have a cool name -- it also packs a punch. The laptop sports a 12.5-inch display, lands with a super-high definition display, a Core i7 processor, 8GB of memory, and 128GB of solid-state storage in a rigid casing. It's remarkably light at 2.75 pounds, and comes with an RGB-backlit keyboard -- because why not?

Samsung Galaxy TabPro S
The tablet nobody expected: Samsung dropped this 12-inch, Windows 10-powered tablet at the end of a keynote on the second press day. Sporting a super-bright AMOLED screen and a sixth-generation, Intel Core M3 (dual-core) processor, it still manages to be thinner and lighter than an iPad Pro -- making it an attractive grab for the enterprise. No word on pricing though. It's set to land in the US later in the first calendar quarter.

Lenovo Yoga 900S
Lenovo calls this 12.5-inch display laptop the "world's thinnest convertible laptop." At 2.2 pounds, this lightweight Windows-powered laptop still manages to squeeze in one of the latest Intel Core i7 processors, and a battery life up to 10.5 hours. It's at the mid-range price of the high-end specs, landing at $1,099, and will be available in March in the US.

Intel Compute Stick
It's the PC on a stick that got even better. The non-traditional, experimental but super-portable PC still fits in your pocket and plugs right into a display's HDMI port, but now it packs a faster Intel Atom processor, two USB ports for a keyboard and mouse, and faster 802.11ac Wi-Fi connectivity. The PC stick lands at just $159 in the US.

HP EliteBook Folio G1
HP's EliteBook gives Apple's 12-inch MacBook a "run for its money," says our sister site CNET. Tailored towards the small-business users and corporate IT users, it sports a high-resolution 4K display, includes a newer second-generation Intel Core M processor, and has a display that can perform a 180-degree flip, letting it lie flat on a table. It's also tested to pass military-grade testing for ruggedness, making it a tougher-than-most laptop.

Samsung Notebook 9
And last but not least, Samsung takes its new thin and light laptop to a whole new level. This 13-inch slim-but-powerful notebook behemoth can be carried in one hand, weighing in at under 2 pounds. The laptop lands with a sixth-generation Intel Core i5 or i7 processor, a 1080p display with a 180-degree hinge, and comes with up to 8GB of memory, and 256GB of storage. And for the on-the-go worker, it also packs a 10.5 hours of battery life.
