Marketed under the name “CompBook”, the cheapest laptop in this series has a price tag of only $150 and looks like a mid-range ultra-book. As far as design in concerned, CompBook is thin, ultra-light, compact and able to power you through the day thanks to its 8-hour battery life. And speaking about great battery life, here are some of the best laptops running Windows 10 to choose from.
