The Aspire 3 A315-21 is a simple office laptop that can easily handle everyday tasks.
The SSD enables the system to run quickly. There is no shortage of storage space, given that the SSD is accompanied by a 1 TB 2.5-inch hard drive! The SSD + Hard Drive combo is an extremely rare thing in the Cloudbook world and is usually mostly present in high-end gaming laptops. The keyboard is reasonably good and fulfills all the requirements for home use.
The matte 15.6-inch display will not win any prizes. It is dark, has poor contrast, and it does not provide stable viewing angles, but at least it's responsive.
For 308$, this basic laptop is quite a good choice and, thanks to its AMD A6-9220 APU, has a slightly better performance than Intel's equivalently priced Celeron/Pentium based solutions.

The Asus K501 is a great 15.6" laptop suitable for gamers and multimedia fan alike. Although the Nvidia GeForce GTX 950M is not-apt for ultra hardcore gaming, it can still play the vast majority of games in full HD. Users will appreciate its sturdy chassis, powerful speakers, it's very high quality IPS matte display, and a keyboard that offers an amazing, almost Lenovo level, typing experience. Overall, the price/performance ratio is extremely good and this laptop is worth all the money.

With its thickness of just 10mm, The HP Spectre 13 is a direct competitor of the Apple Macbook (2016). One big difference, compared to the competition, is that HP managed to install 15W Intel Core i7 CPUs in this ultrathin form factor instead of using less powerful 4.5W Intel Core M series. The display is incredible, thin and with high contrast. To keep the device slim, HP utilizes a new technology called Piston Hinge.
