What are the best touch screen laptops available currently? I have compiled a list of the ones that have gotten the best reviews, so far. The technology of touch screen is not that new. We have had the ability on our smartphones and tablets for a while now. However, moving that touch computing technology into the laptop market has been slow coming. There really are not that many right now. I am not sure if that is because there is not enough market for them or if manufacturers are waiting to see how the software measures up on a laptop computer. Tablets are so popular right now but some people really want the ability to have a larger screen or larger hard drive memory and want a more traditional laptop along with the touch computing features.
| ASUS VivoBook X202E-DH31T 11.6-Inch Touch Laptop
A lightweight laptop with touch screen computing. It does not get much better than that. The screen display is 11.6 inches so it isn’t huge but it is larger than most tablets come in. The operating system is Windows 8 which was written to work well with touchscreen computers. The great thing about this touch screen laptop is that not only do you have the ability to fly through tasks with the ease of touching the screen but you also have a full keyboard when you need those typing times. It is really fast to come on and shut down time is also very fast. Out of 118 reviews it received 66 5 star marks and 31 4 star marks so people seem to be really happy with the performance. |

| Sony VAIO T Series SVT13124CXS 13.3-Inch Touch Ultrabook (Silver)
If you are looking for a larger screen display than the model above, you might like this touch laptop in a 13.3 inch display. It weighs a little more, too but that is because it offers more ports than most laptops currently available. Besides the normal ports you also get one that works well with connecting to a Blu Ray player. You will need to get the proper cables (sold separately) but there capability is there. Out of 38 reviews 27 people rated this touchscreen laptop at 4 stars or better. Runs on Windows 8 for the newest technology available out there for touch computing. |

| Toshiba Satellite 14″ P845T-S4305 3rd Generation i3-3217U Touch-Screen Laptop, 4GB Memory – 500GB Hard Drive – Prestige Silver
Boasting a 14 inch screen display this Toshiba touch-screen laptop is a pretty good price. It offers 500GB of memory so you should have plenty of storage space for your files. There were only 3 people who had left a review on this machine. Two of the 3 gave it a 5 star rating and the third person gave it a 4 so overall I think the performance is good. One person did comment that the laptop runs slower than they would like. |

| Samsung – Touch-Screen Ultrabook 13.3″ Laptop – 4GB Memory 500GB HDD + 24GB ExpressCache – Silver -Model #NP540U3C-A01UB
Samsung has a 13.3 inch screen touch screen laptop that runs on Windows 8. The feature that stands out the most on this model is the long battery life. You get about 6 hours on the battery. It does not have an optical drive (CD/DVD) which helps it be a lighter weight but you can connect an external drive with the proper cables that are sold separately. |
