Laptops for Data Science

All laptops

11 laptops for data science from Apple, Dell, Lenovo and more. Most cost $1,300 to $5,238, and half cost less than $3,300.

64GB of memory or more, on machines built without a gaming screen. A dataset that does not fit in memory is the thing that stops the work, and a high refresh rate does nothing for it.

We do not pick by hand: a laptop is here because its listed specs pass the checks.
