Closing thoughts on SSD laptops

The LG gram and Zephyrus M are probably the best of the five in terms of specs and performance, but not necessarily in terms of value. The Aspire 5 and Inspiron 15 5000 will be fine for users who don’t need to run games or other system resource-intensive software.

The G531GT is a good all-rounder for productivity and multimedia users that’s more economical than the LG gram and Zephyrus.
