The Surface Laptop Ultra is a Windows laptop that can compete with the MacBook Pro, but its battery life is lacking, preventing it from surpassing Apple's product.

Google's Android laptop offerings still have a ways to go before they can match the quality of their desktop counterparts, with many users finding them to be essentially Android on a laptop screen with a keyboard and a mouse. While some benefits of Android on a laptop include the ability to use Android apps and a more portable form factor, the experience is often marred by performance issues and a lack of polish. Google needs to address these concerns to make Android laptops a viable alternative to traditional laptops.
