If you seem to spend all of your time around your laptop, whether it’s for playing the latest PC games, chatting online with your friends or carrying out work, during the winter working from a laptop can be great. You can cuddle up on the sofa, plug your laptop battery lead in and sit with a warm drink for hours on end, without worrying about whether your battery is going to run out or how big and heavy the laptop is for when walking home with it.

In the summer, however, things are a little different. Whilst you will still want to be doing exactly the same things on your laptop as you did in the winter, you don’t want to be stuck inside but although notebooks are meant to be portable, it’s only in recent times that they are actually living up to their name.
