Best Ultrabooks (July'16)

Hey fellas, This is DenDeMello and this is my post showing some of the best Ultrabooks or rather Ultra-portables, as I refer to them, in early to mid 2016. They have come a long way since the their first introduction in 2011 to compete with Macbook Air.I have compiled a list of Ultrabooks , which I think are best available at the time of writing. Also the list is in no particular order.
  1. Dell XPS 13 (9350)
dell_xps_13_teaser
Dell XPS 13 (9350) is one of the two of my personal favorites. It is powered by 6th gen intel i3, i5 or i7 processors , upto Iris 540 graphics , 13.3 optional touchscreen QHD display , upto 16 gigs of RAM , Thunderbolt enabled Type-C connector . As you can see it ticks every single checkbox you can probably have on your list. Also it has bezel-less display, dubbed as 'Infinity Display'  by Dell, and man its gorgeous. Due to no bezels, Dell is able to make a 13.3" laptop in footprint of a rather small one. Top and bottom have Aluminium while Keyboard area is Carbon-Fiber. It can easily take casual beating.
IF you want the best of the best , simply go for it !
Key Specs
  • upto 6th gen i7-6560U
  • upto Iris 540 Graphics
  • upto 16 GB of RAM
  • upto 1TB of SSD Storage
  • upto touch QHD+ IGZO 13.3" Infinity Display
  • thunderbolt enabled Type-C connector
  • Island stlye backlit keyboard sans numeric pad
  • Aluminium and Carbon Fiber body
 
2. Razer Blade Stealth

And then There's this Amazing piece of tech , The Blade Stealth. Razer Blade stealth is my personal favorite ultraportable after XPS 13. The reason it doesn't have the first place is that bezels. Those bezels are really huge buy today's standards. I understand Razer did this so that it can accommodate a better sized keyboard , but still. Blade stealth has 6th gen intel i7-6500U  , 8 GB of ram , 12.5" IGZO touch QHD or UHD display all in stealthy 0.52" CNC aluminium case. Also, the Blade Stealth is more ambitious approach then the whole bunch as it can connect to the Razer Core, and external graphics amplifier which can have any graphics card the user wants. So, theoretically Blade stealth can have power of a desktop-grade graphics card . Further, Blade Stealth have Razer's signature ,Featuring the world’s first individually backlit RGB notebook keyboard, your Razer Blade Stealth gives you access to 16.8 million color options powered by Razer Chroma. This anti-ghosting keyboard registers simultaneous key presses with precision, providing a quick and comfortable typing experience. With Razer Synapse, you can easily remap your keys, create macros, and personalize your own lighting effects, then use inter-device sync with your other Chroma enabled devices, for a setup that is as unique as your style.
Key Specs
  • 6th Gen Intel core i7-6500U
  • HD 520 Graphics
  • 8GB RAM
  • Upto 512GB Of SSD Storage
  • upto touch-4K(UHD) IGZO 12.5" display
  • thunderbolt enabled Type-C connector
  • ability to connect to Razer Core
  • Anti-ghosting Chroma enabled keyboard
  • Aluminium body 
3.Microsoft Surface Book
Next entry is from the house of Microsoft, The Surface Book. Surface book was created for thse how had an eye on Surface Pro line-up but didn't like the tablet-hybrid-ish look. It is by far the best looking ultraportable there is. Magnesium alloy white body with that "Fulcrum Hinge" looks fantastic ! User can have upto 6th gen core i7,upto  16 GB of RAM, upto 1TB of SSD storage and a dGraphics card too. Screen, or as Microsoft says it, Clipboard detaches of the hinge , if you are that sorta guy. But Mind well it is one of the most expensive choice.
Key Specs
  • upto 6th gen core i7 processors
  • dedicated Nvidia Graphics card
  • upto 16 GB of RAM
  • upto 1TB of storage
  • touch 3200x2000 13.5" PixelSense Screen
  • backlit keyboard

Nvidia's highly anticipated, high performance graphics cards the GTX 1080 and GTX 1070 are released by Nvidia. These GPUs will replace Nvidia's 9 series graphics card i.e. GTX 980 and GTX 970 respectively. Its is claimed that the performance will be better than GTX Titan X and GTX 980Ti, Pretty exciting. GTX 1080 and GTX 1070 are based on Nvidia's latest Pascal architecture and GP104 GPU.                                      "Right now GTX 1080 is Simply fastest card in the world" Nvidia uses new microarchitecture called Pascal in this new cards .

WIRIELESS CONNECTION 100x FASTER THAN WIFI !

Image
Yes you heard it right. The technology named "Li-Fi" is 100 times faster than Wi-Fi. Light Fidelity(Li-Fi) is a bidirectional, high speed and fully networked wireless communication technology similar to Wi-Fi. The term was coined by Harald Haas and is a form of visible light communications and a subset of optical wireless communication (OWC) and could be a complement to RF communication (Wi-Fi or Cellular network), or even a replacement in contexts of data broadcasting. It is so far measured to be about 100 times faster than some Wi-Fi implementations, reaching speeds of 224 gigabits per second. It is wireless and uses Visible light communication or infra-red and near ultraviolet(instead of radio frequency waves) spectrum, part of optical wireless communications technology, which carries much more information, and has been proposed as a solution to RF-bandwidth limitations.This OWC technology uses light from light-emitting diodes (LEDs) as a medium to deliv...
