From a laptop with a screen that grows to a 1-kilogram ultraportable to the world's most powerful 14-inch workstation, these are the laptops that grabbed our attention at CES.

CES 2025, which wrapped up on Friday, marked the first year I found more laptops than ever that hit this Holy Grail metric — and they did so without making the sacrifices often considered necessary to achieve a light form factor.
