The Best Windows Ultrabook
In mid-2018, we tested the new $800 Asus ZenBook UX331UA against our previous budget pick, the $750 Asus ZenBook UX330UA. It will replace the older model in this guide.
Ultrabooks are marvels of engineering: powerful laptops with long battery life wrapped up in thin and light packages. Even though almost all ultrabooks are good nowadays, only a few are great. After putting in more than 70 hours of research and testing nine laptops in 2017, we found that the Dell XPS 13 is the best for most people because it offers the best balance of size, battery life, and performance of any Windows ultrabook we tested. Plus, it has a great keyboard and trackpad, a vibrant display, and a variety of new and legacy ports.
The Dell XPS 13 configuration we recommend costs around $1,200. For that you get an eighth-generation Intel Core i7-8550U processor, 8 GB of RAM, and a 256 GB solid-state drive. Its keyboard and touchpad are both responsive and comfortable to use for a full day of work, and it has a 1080p non-touchscreen display. Connections include a Thunderbolt 3 port, two USB 3.0 Type-A ports for hooking up older devices, an SD card slot, and Noble lock slot. We recommend spending $25 more to add a fingerprint reader. If you frequently take video calls on your laptop, be warned: The Dell XPS 13's webcam—positioned at the bottom-left corner of its screen—stares directly into your nostrils.
If you want a convertible laptop with a 360-degree hinge, and don't mind carrying a bigger laptop, you should get the Lenovo Yoga 920. It's about an inch larger and a half-pound heavier than the Dell XPS 13, so it's less convenient to throw into your bag for a day of working on the go. But the Lenovo Yoga 920 has the longest battery life of any ultrabook we tested (nearly 10 hours!), a good keyboard and trackpad, and a 13.9-inch touchscreen with pen support (although the $70 pen is not included). Plus, its webcam is in the right place: above the display, and centered. We recommend the model with the same specs as our top pick for around the same price. It has two Thunderbolt 3 USB-C ports and one USB 3.0 port, as well as a fingerprint reader for easy logins.
If you're on a budget but still in need of an ultrabook that gets the job done, the Asus ZenBook UX330UA is a fantastic value. It costs around $450 less than our top pick and has nearly identical specs except for a slower solid-state drive. It's a little lighter than the XPS 13, but it's bigger, too. This ZenBook's keyboard is comfortable and backlit, but its trackpad is shallow and sometimes unreliable. Battery life lasted around 7 hours in our tests; that's about average for the laptops we tested in 2017, but still an hour behind the results from the Dell XPS 13 and three hours behind the battery life of the Yoga 920. It also lacks Thunderbolt 3 ports. But if you need a thin, light laptop for under $1,000, you should definitely get the ZenBook UX330UA.
The New XPS 13 is similar to the late-2017 model, but it ditches the USB-A ports and SD card slot for USB-C and microSD. If you don't mind losing those legacy ports and a couple hours of battery life, you'll be happy with the Dell New XPS 13. Its webcam is now bottom-center instead of off to the left, and it has a fingerprint sensor built into the power button—both nice evolutions. Even with the reduced battery life, the New XPS 13 will last a full workday, and its trackpad, keyboard, and screen are just as good as the old model's. It's the best USB-C–only ultrabook you can buy right now, though we think the late-2017 model's legacy USB-A ports make it more useful for most people while it's still available.
The research
Why you should trust us
Wirecutter has been researching and testing ultrabooks since 2013, and our PC team has more than 20 years of collective experience reviewing all kinds of laptops. We spend hundreds of hours, and test dozens of laptops, every year. For this update, we spent 70 hours in late 2017 researching, testing, and living with nine ultrabooks.
Who this is for
An ultrabook is a good choice for people who don't mind paying more than $1,000 for an ultraportable laptop that will last a full workday on a single charge and doesn't compromise performance. Although an ultrabook should be sufficient for completing daily work tasks, it is not meant for gaming or serious photo and video editing work. In most cases, you can't upgrade an ultrabook's SSD and RAM, either. If you prioritize upgradability and lots of ports, take a look at our guide to business laptops.
If you have only around $600 to spend, check out our favorite cheap Windows laptop—though we suggest saving $150 more for our budget ultrabook pick, if you can. It's a lot lighter than the best cheap Windows option, and it has nearly double the battery life.
And if you're not sure what kind of laptop you're looking for, or where to start, we can help you find the best one for your needs.
How we picked
These are the features you should look for in a good ultrabook, in rough order of importance:
- Size: An ultrabook should be as thin and light as possible, but a well-built, slightly thicker laptop is better than a thin one that feels flimsy or has poor battery life. It needs a 12- to 14-inch screen that's large enough for work but small enough for the laptop to remain easy to slip into your backpack.
- Battery life: A great ultrabook must survive a day of working around the office, or in a coffee shop, even if you don't have access to an outlet. If a laptop lasts at least six hours during our rigorous battery test, we expect it to survive a full workday, or a cross-country flight, on a single charge. We like to see eight hours of battery life in our tests, which indicates that you won't have to worry about rushing to find an outlet at the end of the day. Battery life degrades over time, so the more a laptop starts out with, the better.
- Specs
- Processor: A seventh- or eighth-generation Intel Core ultra-low-power processor, meaning an Intel Core i5-7200U or i5-8250U processor or better, is powerful enough for most work. While Intel's seventh-generation U-class Core processors have two cores to perform tasks simultaneously, its new, eighth-generation U processors have four cores. You can expect a boost in performance with these models, but they aren't so fast that you'll notice a significant difference in day-to-day multitasking. Ultrabooks with either generation of processor will be fast enough for your multitasking needs. You'll also see some ultrabooks with Intel's ultra-low-voltage (ULV) processors, with model names like Intel Core i5-7Y54—look for the Y in place of a number. (These chips used to be part of Intel's Core M line, but Intel rebranded them as Core i processors, making things more confusing.) These ULV processors—designed for laptops, tablets, and two-in-one devices—aren't as powerful as Intel's traditional Core processors, but they are more battery efficient and don't require cooling fans, unlike standard laptop processors. In the past, ULV machines were too slow for us to recommend, but we tested some in 2017 that are quick enough for routine laptop work.
- Memory: These days, 8 GB is the minimum amount of RAM you'll need to keep everything running smoothly when switching between programs, opening lots of files, and thumbing through browser tabs. But since RAM is soldered into the motherboard of most ultrabooks—and therefore not upgradable—you should consider starting with 16 GB if you're a heavy multitasker.
- Solid-state storage: A solid-state drive (SSD) can read and write data much faster than a traditional hard drive. Having an SSD speeds up any task that requires accessing data, like booting up your laptop and saving and loading files. SSDs also use less power than hard drives, put out less heat, and don't vibrate; they're less prone to mechanical failure. A 256 GB SSD is more than enough space for most people.1
- Keyboard and trackpad: It's crucial that your laptop's keyboard and trackpad are accurate and comfortable to use for long periods of time, even if you regularly use peripherals such as an external keyboard and mouse.
- Display: We recommend a resolution of 1920×1080 on a good ultrabook. Its screen should be IPS, not TN, because IPS offers much better viewing angles and is more color-accurate. Higher-resolution screens—think 4K—are now commonplace, but they're not necessarily ideal for ultrabooks: A higher resolution means a sharper picture, but in an ultraportable with a 13-inch screen, that benefit is hard to see and probably isn't worth the reduced battery life. Similarly, touchscreens can now be found on many Windows laptops, but their glossy touchscreen glass means a lot of glare, which makes them less convenient to use than a non-touchscreen laptop in more situations. A more-accurate display with a wider gamut is preferable because it makes everything you do on your screen look better. But screen quality isn't a defining feature when we evaluate ultrabooks because they're not meant to be used for heavy image-editing work.
- Build quality: An ultrabook should feel substantial when you use it, its lid and hinge should feel sturdy when you open and close it, and no parts of it should creak or feel breakable. You're spending a thousand dollars or more—your laptop should reflect that, no matter how thin and light it is.
- Ports: A selection of new and legacy ports is ideal to ease the transition to USB-C. While different ports matter to different users, a couple of USB 3.0 Type-A ports are universally useful. A Thunderbolt 3 port is handy for futureproofing as more docks, displays, and peripherals begin to move to the latest standard.
- Extras: Fingerprint readers and depth-sensing cameras (namely, Intel's RealSense 3D camera) are becoming more common in ultrabooks as manufacturers add support for Windows Hello. Laptops that support Windows Hello allow you to log in using your fingerprint or face, a method intended to discourage weak passwords by letting you log in instantly without having to type in a password every time. In our evaluations, we don't consider fingerprint readers and Intel's RealSense camera to be requirements—though they are bonuses, despite privacy concerns.
Once we determined our hardware criteria, we scoured the websites of major ultrabook manufacturers such as Acer, Asus, Dell, HP, Lenovo, and Samsung for any promising new models released since our previous update in February 2017. We then put together a list of ultrabooks that fit our requirements and had positive reviews from trusted sources.
At the end of 2017, we tested six new ultrabooks, including the Lenovo Yoga 920, LG Gram 14Z970, and 15-inch Samsung Notebook 9 Pro, and the eighth-generation versions of the Dell XPS 13 non-touch, Asus ZenBook UX430UA, and Asus ZenBook UX330UA. We also retested our previous top picks: the 2016 Dell XPS 13 non-touch, the 2016 HP Spectre x360, and the 2016 Asus ZenBook UX330UA. In early 2018, we tested five new ultrabooks against our current top picks, including the redesigned Dell New XPS 13, Microsoft Surface Laptop, HP Spectre 13, Samsung Notebook 7 Spin, and Acer Swift 5.
How we tested
We tested each laptop by using it for at least a day of ordinary work, which consisted of running two browsers with at least 20 open tabs at a time (using Google Docs, Sheets, Slack, Basecamp, and Gmail, and doing lots of research) while streaming music in the background. This process gave us a feel for the laptop's performance, keyboard, trackpad, and screen for common work tasks. We then lived with the finalists over the course of three weeks, which gave us an intimate understanding of each competitor's strengths, weaknesses, and quirks.
To test each laptop's battery life, we set each screen's backlight to 150 nits (or candelas per square meter, cd/m²) and ran a Web-browsing battery test that cycled through Web pages, email, Google Docs items, and video. Because we set each laptop to the same brightness, the results were directly comparable.
Our pick: Dell XPS 13
The late-2017 non-touchscreen Dell XPS 13 is the best Windows ultrabook for most people because it offers the best balance of what makes an ultrabook great. It's compact, its battery life is among the longest we've seen, and it has a good keyboard and trackpad plus a healthy mix of new and old ports. Previous versions of the XPS 13 have been our top pick since early 2015. Its design has remained largely unchanged, while other laptops, like our runner-up, the Lenovo Yoga 920, have improved with each new version. It's a testament, then, to the XPS 13 that until its rivals catch up to a three-year-old design, it remains our favorite ultrabook for most people. But the competition is tightening up.
The XPS 13 packs a 13.3-inch 1080p screen into a 12-inch body, and the configuration we recommend has an Intel Core i7-8550U processor, 8 GB of RAM, and a 256 GB PCIe solid-state drive. We also recommend spending $25 extra to get a fingerprint reader. Most people should get the non-touchscreen XPS 13, but you can buy a touch model if you don't mind spending around $400 more and getting about an hour and a half less battery life due to its 3200×1800 display.
In our tests, the late-2017 Dell XPS 13's eighth-generation processor made it slightly faster in regular use than the seventh-generation model, but the late-2016 Dell XPS 13 is a great choice while it's still available. For $100 less, the late-2016 XPS 13 gave us around 20 minutes more battery life than the late-2017 version, and everyday performance wasn't significantly different, although we did notice a little less lag during heavy multitasking on the eighth-generation model. We prefer the new model, especially because the 2016 model will soon be hard to find, but you don't give up much in choosing the older one.
The Dell XPS 13 measures 12 by 7.9 by 0.6 inches and weighs 2.7 pounds. Its design was amazing in 2015 and remains impressive in 2017: Every laptop we tested is at least a half-inch deeper in size. It's no longer the outlier it was, though. Other laptops, such as the HP Spectre x360, are now about the same in width and thickness, and the Asus ZenBook UX330UA (our budget pick) and the LG Gram are about the same weight, if not lighter.
The non-touch XPS 13's battery life is still among the best you'll find in a Windows ultrabook, although other models are catching up in this regard, too. The late-2017 XPS 13 lasted 8 hours, 23 minutes in our Web-browsing battery tests. Our runner-up, the Lenovo Yoga 920, beat it by an hour, running for 9 minutes, 45 minutes; nearly 10 hours of battery life is impressive by any measure, but anything beyond a full workday of battery life is a bonus, not a huge advantage. Most of the models we tested this year lagged behind the XPS 13 by at least an hour, including our budget pick, the Asus ZenBook UX330UA.
The Dell has a responsive keyboard that's pleasant to use for long periods of time. The keys are a little shallow (Laptop Mag measured 1.2 millimeters of travel) but not uncomfortably so, and you can cycle through three levels of backlighting (maximum, dim, and off) using a function key.
Our pick's precision touchpad is exact and reliable, with accurate tap-to-click and a satisfying (but not too loud) physical click. The trackpad never dropped swipes in our testing, and worked well for two- and three-finger gestures. It's about as good a Windows trackpad as we've ever used, although the Lenovo Yoga 920's trackpad was a little smoother in daily use. We never wished for a mouse out of frustration, and that's as good as it gets.
The Dell's 13.3-inch IPS screen is brilliant, with good color reproduction and fantastic viewing angles. It has a matte coating that prevents glare without being distracting. The 1080p screen is particularly immersive because of its teeny-tiny 5.2 mm bezel, another trend that other laptop makers have finally embraced. (The Lenovo Yoga 920's bezel is 5 mm, imperceptibly smaller than the Dell XPS 13's bezel.) The screen is great for getting work done and watching movies, but the narrow bezel pushes the webcam to an inconvenient location (more on this below).
The aluminum body is sleek and sturdy, and the lid has minimal flex. Its carbon-fiber-composite palm rest is coated in textured, soft-touch black paint, which makes for a comfortable, non-sweaty surface.2 The middle of the keyboard flexes a little under heavy pressure, but overall the Dell looks and feels like the premium laptop it is.
The XPS 13's Killer 1535 Wireless-AC with Bluetooth 4.1 Wi-Fi card pairs with the Killer Wireless software to prioritize your bandwidth based on what you're doing, but in our testing it didn't feel any different than the Intel chips in every other ultrabook.
The Dell XPS 13 has a Thunderbolt 3 port, which you can use to charge mobile devices (or the laptop itself, provided you have a compatible charger), transfer data, or connect an external display via DisplayPort or HDMI (with the proper adapter). Our pick also has two USB 3.0 ports, a headset jack, an SD card reader, and a Noble lock slot (in lieu of a Kensington Security Slot). We appreciate the selection of new and legacy ports, which eases the transition to USB-C. We recommend spending $25 more to get the Dell XPS 13 with a fingerprint reader; although we weren't able to test that feature for this update, it has worked reliably on every Dell XPS laptop we've previously tested.
Flaws but not dealbreakers
The Dell's ultraslim screen bezel is great, but in exchange the webcam placement is terrible: Rather than sitting above the screen in the center, the webcam resides on the bottom-left edge, above the Esc key. This means the camera has an unflattering view up your left nostril and of the underside of your chin, and when you're videoconferencing, you can't look at the webcam and at your fellow meeting attendees at the same time. It's an inconvenience, especially if you make a lot of video calls, but the camera works adequately, and you can get an external webcam for your home or office if necessary. Some other laptops with tiny bezels, including the LG Gram, also have their webcams in bad locations, but our runner-up, the Lenovo Yoga 920, keeps the webcam in the top-center position, where it should be.
A small—and easy to fix—problem is that Dell includes software that automatically "enhances" audio through the XPS 13's speakers and any plugged-in headphones. To us, this audio processing makes the speakers sound harsh and jarring, and it makes headphones sound echoey, as if we had actual tin cans strapped over our ears. To fix this, go to the included MaxxAudio Pro software and make sure the enhancement in the Playback and Dimension (and Voice, to be safe) tabs is switched off so you can listen in peace.
Some readers have reported annoying coil whine on previous models of the XPS 13. Unfortunately, coil whine is common in thin laptops, especially when they're charging. Although we did not experience this issue with the 2017 XPS 13, one of our review units of the late-2016 Dell XPS 13 had minimal coil whine that we could hear about 6 inches away from the laptop while it was charging. If your Dell XPS 13 has this problem and it bothers you, we recommend exchanging it for a new unit right away.
Like our other picks, the XPS 13 comes with a one-year limited warranty. Dell's warranty covers only mail-in service to fix manufacturer defects. Phone and online support and in-home service for some hardware repairs cost an extra $90 for one year. The aforementioned support, plus accident coverage and one-on-one help with software and hardware issues, costs $200 for a 12-month service plan. You can pay for up to four years of either kind of coverage.
We've received a handful of reports of issues with Dell's customer support, including unresponsiveness, slow turnarounds, failure to fix issues, and even a case of making a problem worse. In our experience, most laptop manufacturers (except Apple) have poor customer service. But we reached out to Dell about the complaints, and the company provided this advice: You can call 800-624-9896 if your laptop is still in warranty, or 800-288-4410 if not. Or you can start here to access chat support. If your problem is not being addressed adequately, ask to be transferred to a member of the "Escalations team" or contact @DellCares on Twitter.
Runner-up: Lenovo Yoga 920
If you want a laptop that has a 360-degree hinge and don't mind carrying something larger and heavier, you should get the Lenovo Yoga 920 for around $1,200. It's about an inch wider and deeper than the Dell XPS 13, and nearly a half-pound heavier, but the Yoga 920 has the longest battery life of any laptop we tested, a good keyboard and trackpad, and a vibrant, 13.9-inch touchscreen. It also feels—and looks—like a premium laptop, and offers active pen support (although you'll have to buy the $70 pen separately). It has two Thunderbolt 3 USB-C ports, one USB 3.0 port for connecting older devices, and a reliable fingerprint reader for easy logins.
The Lenovo Yoga 920 typically costs the same as the Dell XPS 13 for similar specs, but it includes a 13.9-inch 1080p touchscreen and a hinge that lets you flip the screen all the way around to use it as a tablet (or in any intermediate position). The configuration we recommend has an Intel Core i7-8550U processor, 8 GB of RAM, and a 256 GB PCIe solid-state drive. It's our favorite convertible laptop, but its larger body kept it from being our top pick for most people; whenever we reached for a laptop to take to a coffee shop or the park, we felt more comfortable bringing along the Dell XPS 13. This Lenovo system also lacks an SD card reader (no microSD, either) and a security slot.
The Yoga 920 measures 12.7 by 8.7 by 0.5 inches, which makes it about an inch deeper and wider than the XPS 13. The Lenovo also weighs about a half-pound more than our top pick, at 3.1 pounds. While 3 pounds is still pretty light for a laptop (especially one with a 14-inch screen), the Lenovo's added weight made it less convenient for us to slip into a bag than the Dell, and the size difference between the two was noticeable.
Among the ultrabooks we tested in late 2017, the Yoga 920 had the longest battery life, at 9 hours, 45 minutes. Our top pick fell behind the Lenovo by about an hour, at 8 hours, 23 minutes, but any battery life beyond a full day of work is a bonus rather than a huge advantage. All of our picks have impressive battery life; many of the other ultrabooks we tested for this update didn't make it past 7 hours.
The Lenovo Yoga 920 has a good keyboard, but its keys aren't as snappy to use as those on the Dell XPS 13. Although they have a little more travel—1.3 mm versus 1.2 mm, according to Laptop Mag's measurements—we felt inclined to press harder on them while typing. Both were comfortable to use for long typing sessions, though. (It helps that Lenovo gave the Yoga 920 a full-size right Shift key and put it in the correct spot above the arrow keys. The 920's predecessor, the Yoga 910, shrank the right Shift key in order to place it to the right of the up arrow.) Its precision touchpad was smooth and enjoyable in everyday use; the trackpad responded to all of our two- and three-finger gestures with ease, and we never accidentally moved the cursor with our palms while we were using the keyboard.
The Lenovo's 13.9-inch IPS screen is bright and vivid. Its touch display has more glare than the Dell's matte screen, which makes the Lenovo less suitable for use in a bright room. Bordering the top and sides of the screen is a super-thin, 5 mm bezel—although it's smaller than the Dell's 5.2 mm bezel, we couldn't tell the difference with the two laptops side by side. Even with that thin bezel, the Lenovo still manages to squeeze the webcam into its familiar location above the display.
The Yoga 920 also has pen support for taking notes, drawing, and sketching. The $70 Active Pen 2 For Yoga worked fine in our writing tests, but Lenovo doesn't provide a good place to store the pen while you're on the go. The pen comes with a pen holder that fits into the laptop's only USB 3.0 port, and when it's in place, it blocks the power button.
The Lenovo's all-aluminum chassis looks glossy and feels solidly built. (The bronze model we tested is so striking that it's almost distracting; we occasionally caught ourselves just admiring it. The machine is also available in an understated silver.) The lid feels durable, the hinge—with its attractive, silver watchband styling—is tight and secure to open and close, and the base has minimal flex.
The Lenovo Yoga 920 has two Thunderbolt 3 ports as well as one USB-A port for older peripherals, and a headset jack. Although it doesn't have any dedicated video-out ports like Mini DisplayPort or HDMI, its Thunderbolt 3 ports will carry display data through the proper cable, adapter, or dock. You can charge the ultrabook via either Thunderbolt 3 port, too. The Lenovo Yoga 920 supports 802.11 Wi-Fi with Bluetooth 4.1, and the company includes a one-year limited warranty (PDF). The base warranty provides phone support and a mail-in service for repairs, and you can pay extra for a longer warranty, in-home service, or accident coverage.
Also great: Dell New XPS 13
Although we think the late-2017 Dell XPS 13 is better for most people, at some point we expect it will be entirely replaced by the New XPS 13. The new model loses the XPS 13's USB-A ports and SD card slot in favor of three USB-C ports and a microSD card reader, and drops the battery life by a couple hours. On the bright side, the webcam is now in the center of the bottom bezel instead of off to the left, and there's a fingerprint reader integrated into the power button. Both changes make the New XPS 13 more enjoyable to use than its predecessor, and its battery life is still better than that of most of its peers. With many laptop makers moving toward USB-C–only ultrabooks, the Dell New XPS 13's long battery life, comfortable keyboard, and responsive trackpad make it the best ultrabook without legacy ports. We still prefer the old model, though, while it's available.
We recommend the non-touchscreen Dell New XPS 13 configured with an Intel Core i5-8250U processor, 8 GB memory, and a 256 GB solid-state drive. It's about $100 more than our top pick for comparable specs, and its eighth-generation i5 processor is plenty speedy enough for everyday multitasking.
The New XPS 13 measures 11.9 by 7.8 by 0.46 inches, 0.1 inch more compact in width and depth than the older XPS 13, and it's 0.14 inch thinner. At 2.68 pounds, it's 0.02 pound lighter than our top pick, but its smaller dimensions and weight aren't noticeable in everyday use.
The New XPS 13 lasted for 8 hours, 18 minutes in our most recent round of battery tests, around two hours behind the later-2017 model, which gave us 10 hours, 35 minutes. The New XPS 13 has a smaller battery than the older Dell XPS 13 (52 WHr versus 60 WHr), so a small decline in battery life is to be expected. We consider anything longer than a full day of work to be a perk, and both models were by far the longest-lasting ultrabooks we tested in 2018.
The Dell New XPS 13's keyboard and trackpad are nearly identical to its predecessor's. Dell has added Page Up and Page Down buttons, squeezed in above its right and left arrow buttons, though. It also added a fingerprint sensor to its power button for Windows Hello login support, which is a great feature that makes turning on and unlocking the laptop a breeze.
Dell has foregone USB-A ports on the New XPS 13 in favor of USB-C ports only, and ditched the full SD card reader for a microSD slot. (Though it comes with a USB-C to USB-A adapter.) While understandable, it's disappointing. For most people, the negligible size and weight decrease aren't worth losing those legacy ports.
The Dell New XPS 13 has moved its webcam from the left side of its bottom bezel to the center, which is a small improvement over its predecessor (but not really). It'll still look up your nose, but at least now you can be in the center of the frame during video calls.
Budget pick: Asus ZenBook UX330UA
If you want a great ultrabook but don't have a thousand dollars to spend, we recommend the $750 Asus ZenBook UX330UA, which is a fantastic value. For its moderate price, the ZenBook UX330UA has nearly identical specs to our top pick, except for a slower solid-state drive. It's a little lighter than the Dell XPS 13, but it's bigger, too, and though it has a comfortable, backlit keyboard, it also has a shallow, unreliable trackpad. The UX330UA's battery lasted about 7 hours in our tests—that's average for the ultrabooks we tested in late 2017, but still about an hour shorter than the Dell XPS 13's battery life. This model also lacks Thunderbolt 3 ports. But if you need a thin and light laptop that costs about $450 less than the best ultrabook we've tested, you should get this ZenBook.
We recommend the UX330UA-AH55 configuration with an Intel Core i5-8250U processor, 8 GB of memory, and a 256 GB solid-state drive. This configuration gives you specs nearly identical to those of our top pick, except for a slower, SATA solid-state drive, for about $450 less.
The ZenBook UX330UA takes up about an inch more space in width and depth than the Dell XPS 13, measuring 12.7 inches wide, 8.7 inches deep, and half an inch thick. It has around the same dimensions as the Lenovo Yoga 920. At 2.7 pounds, this Asus system weighs as much as our top pick, and like the Dell, it's almost a half-pound lighter than the Lenovo.
In our battery test, the Asus ZenBook UX330UA lasted 7 hours, 16 minutes, landing somewhere in the middle of our pack of contenders. It was about an hour behind the Dell XPS 13, which gave us 8 hours, 23 minutes on a single charge, and two hours behind the Lenovo Yoga 920, which lasted 9 hours, 45 minutes during testing.
The keys were springy and comfortable to use, and only a little mushy when we pressed them—Laptop Mag's review notes their 1.6 mm of travel. The keyboard has a handy backlight, too, but the top row is configured as standard function (F) keys, so you have to hold down Fn to alter screen brightness or volume.
The trackpad, though, was both stiff and overly sensitive. We found it unreliable and, as a result, more frustrating to use than the trackpads on our other picks. Because the trackpad was shallower, sometimes we weren't sure whether we had pressed down hard enough for it to register a click. Other times, its smooth, glossy surface was too responsive, triggering unintentional two- and three-finger gestures, or zooming past things we wanted to click on. That's the biggest reason the ZenBook UX330UA isn't our main pick.
The screen colors are a bit cool, but it's pleasant to use for a day of work. The metal body feels solid and doesn't flex or creak under pressure, and the lid has a snazzy concentric-circle pattern. Although the hinge glides open and shut smoothly, the lid and screen can wobble a bit more than we'd like. For the price, the ZenBook UX330UA is amazingly well-made.
The UX330UA has a mix of new and old ports, so it should be compatible with your existing peripherals as well as new ones released over the next few years. The machine has one USB-C port, which we're happy to see, but it's USB 3.1 Gen 1, and the laptop cannot charge via this port—we'd rather see Asus include a faster, more capable Thunderbolt 3 port. It also has two USB 3.0 ports, a Micro HDMI port, a combo audio jack, an SD card slot, and a proprietary charging port, and it supports current-generation 802.11ac Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 4.1.
Because the UX330UA has a chunkier screen bezel than our other picks, it has plenty of room for the webcam in the top-middle position. The video quality can't match that of an external webcam, but it's fine for videoconferencing. Asus also includes a fingerprint reader for Windows Hello login support, and in our tests it was fast and responsive every time we logged in.
Like our other picks, the ZenBook UX330UA produces some coil whine, but in our experience it was audible only about an inch away from the keyboard. The system comes with a one-year limited warranty from Asus.
What to look forward to
In June 2018, Asus announced the ZenBook S. It features a hinge that, when open, lifts the keyboard to a a 5½-degree angle. The laptop has options for either an Intel Core i7-8550U or Core i5-8250U quad-core processor, up to 16 GB of RAM, an SSD of up to 1 TB, and either a 4K or 1080p display. It will cost about $1,200 when it goes on sale July 11.
Huawei's MateBook X Pro is now available in the US. It packs a 14-inch 3K display into a 13-inch body but is slightly larger and heavier than our top pick. The lowest configuration, which costs $1,200, gives you a Core i5 processor, 8 GB RAM, and a 256 GB SSD.
HP has redesigned our former runner-up pick, the HP Spectre x360, which is a little deeper than the Dell XPS 13 but about as light. It comes with an eighth-generation processor and has slimmer bezels than its predecessor. We plan to test it, and we'll pay special attention to any battery-life improvements when we do. We'll also test the HP Envy 13t Touch, which is the same size as the Spectre x360 model, with similar specs, for a little less money.
At the CES 2018 trade show, Lenovo debuted the 14-inch sixth-generation ThinkPad X1 Carbon and third-generation ThinkPad X1 Yoga. Both models are more than a half-inch wider and deeper than the Dell XPS 13; the X1 Carbon is a little lighter than our pick, and the X1 Yoga is a little heavier. Both have eighth-generation Intel Core i7 processors, up to 16 GB RAM, 1 TB of storage, and a healthy mix of new and legacy ports. Historically X1 Carbon models have been excellent laptops that are a bit too expensive for us to recommend for most people, but we look forward to testing these when they become available.
Lenovo also announced the ultrathin X280 and X380 Yoga in January 2018. The X280 is about the same size as our top pick but nearly a half-inch deeper; the X380 Yoga is 0.3 inch wider, nearly an inch deeper, and a half-pound heavier. Both models offer an eighth-generation processor, up to 16 GB of memory, 1 TB of storage, and USB-C ports. We'll have more information once we've had the chance to try them.
We plan to test the Asus Q325UA convertible laptop, too. It's a little wider and deeper than our top pick, but it's more compact than our other picks. At 2.4 pounds, it's also lighter than all of our picks. It comes with with a Core i7-8550U processor, 16 GB of RAM, a 512 GB SATA SSD, and a 13.3-inch 1080p touchscreen display and active stylus support for $1,250.
LG refreshed its line of Gram laptops for 2018, with a 13.3-inch model and a 14-inch version that each weigh a little more than 2 pounds. The new Gram laptops have eighth-generation processors and more durable casing, and their USB-C port now supports Thunderbolt 3. LG even moved the webcam above the display; the previous version of the Gram had its webcam positioned on the laptop's hinge. We don't have pricing or availability on these laptops yet, but we expect to test them when they're released.
At CES 2018 Acer announced the Spin 3, a 14-inch laptop with an eighth-generation processor and 360-degree hinge. Although we don't know the cost for our recommended configuration, its starting price is $700. We look forward to comparing the Spin 3 with our current budget pick when the new model is released.
Samsung announced the 13.3-inch non-touch Notebook 9 ultrabook and Notebook 9 Pen convertible laptop with a 360-degree hinge for the beginning of 2018. The Notebook 9 and 9 Pen are a little bigger than our top pick, but at 2.2 pounds, they're about a half-pound lighter. Both models have similar specs to the Dell XPS 13, but neither supports Thunderbolt 3. We'll keep an eye out for pricing, and we plan to test them this year.
The competition
The fifth-generation Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon is a wonderful laptop that felt like silk beneath our fingers and we recommend it in our business laptops guide. Thin and light, it offers battery life on a par with that of the Dell XPS 13. It also sports a great screen, keyboard, and trackpad, and it's packed with plenty of new and legacy ports. (We experienced some trackpad issues, but we solved them by disabling "edge tap filtering" in the settings.) The X1 Carbon also has a rugged chassis, a spill-resistant keyboard, TPM, and full-disk hardware encryption, all features that our top picks lack. Unfortunately, it costs more than $1,500 with our recommended specs—a Core i5 processor, 8 GB of RAM, a 256 GB solid-state drive—or about as much as the 13-inch MacBook Pro with similar specs. Most people don't need to spend that much for a laptop when an excellent one is available for $200 to $300 less. But if you love ThinkPads or are willing to pay the premium for any of the extra features, the fifth-gen X1 Carbon is the way to go. In February 2018, Lenovo issued a recall for certain ThinkPad X1 Carbons over a possible fire risk for models manufactured between December 2016 and October 2017. If you own one, you can see if your laptop is affected by following the instructions on Lenovo's website.
Our former pick, the seventh-generation HP Spectre x360, had a great keyboard, a decent (albeit too wide) trackpad, and a bright screen, but it was about as big and heavy as our runner-up, the Lenovo Yoga 920, and it fell behind by more than three hours in our battery-life test. In fact, it had the shortest battery life of all the ultrabooks we tested in 2017. Although we look forward to testing its eighth-generation counterpart, we can no longer recommend the seventh-generation HP Spectre x360 over our current picks.
The 13½-inch Microsoft Surface Laptop is a great laptop with a comfortable keyboard and a snappy, accurate trackpad. (We even enjoyed its comfy, fabric-covered palm rest, although we don't know how it will hold up in the long term.) But the Surface Laptop's battery life fell three-and-a-half hours short of our top pick's, and it lacks USB-C ports: It has one USB 3.0 port, one mini DisplayPort, and a Microsoft Surface Connect port. For these reasons, we can't recommend it over our picks.
We don't recommend the HP Spectre 13 because it's about an inch deeper than our top pick, its battery life was nearly half as long as the late-2017 Dell XPS 13's in testing, and its trackpad is less comfortable to use. Although it has three USB-C ports, two of which support Thunderbolt 3, its lack of card readers or legacy ports make it a more limiting choice right now.
The Samsung Notebook 7 Spin convertible laptop is bigger than the Dell XPS 13 by a half-inch, heavier by around a half-pound, and it has a few hours less battery life than both our top pick and runner-up. It has one USB-C port but lacks Thunderbolt 3 support.
The Acer Swift 5 has a 14-inch screen and weighs a mere 2.1 pounds—more than a half-pound lighter than our picks. But it has about half the battery life of our top pick, lasting only 5 hours, 3 minutes during our tests. It has mushy keys that weren't comfortable to use for a full day's work, and although its trackpad was adequate, it was stiffer than we'd like and occasionally unresponsive to our clicks. Its magnesium alloy outer shell and inner chassis made the laptop feel cheaper than its $1,000 price tag would suggest. Plus, it doesn't provide Thunderbolt 3 support like most of our picks do.
Asus's ZenBook UX430UA is a light and compact model with a 14-inch anti-glare display and an eighth-generation processor. At 12.8 by 8.9 by 0.6 inches, it's almost an inch wider and deeper than the Dell XPS 13, and at 2.8 pounds, it weighs a smidgen more, too. But it lasted only 6 hours, 54 minutes in our battery test, it lacks Thunderbolt 3, and it was the first laptop we've used on which the fingerprint reader failed repeatedly.
The 13-inch Samsung Notebook 9 Pro is about an inch deeper than our top pick, and a little heavier; at $1,100, it has a seventh-generation processor and a slower, SATA solid-state drive, and it does not support Thunderbolt 3. We were able to test only the 15-inch version, which had a comfortable keyboard and responsive trackpad. But its power button also stuck out on its side, and as a result we accidentally put the laptop to sleep multiple times, which was annoying. According to Computer Shopper, the 13-inch model should provide a full workday of battery life, comparable to the longevity of our picks, but overall our picks are a better value.
The LG Gram 14Z970 is a little wider than the Dell XPS 13, but at 2.1 pounds, it was the lightest laptop we used in late 2017. Its battery was as impressive as the Dell's, lasting 8 hours, 23 minutes on a single charge. But the LG felt like it was made of cheap plastic, with a creaky, flimsy lid. Its keyboard wasn't great, either; the keys were on the spongy side. This machine's webcam placement—on the hinge—rivals that of the Dell XPS 13 in its awfulness.
Our runner-up's predecessor, the Lenovo Yoga 910, is a great ultrabook with long battery life, a good keyboard and trackpad, and great build quality. But it lacks Thunderbolt 3, uses distractingly loud fans, and has a poorly placed webcam. The Yoga 920 corrects a lot of what the Yoga 910 got wrong, and keeps everything that made it great.
There were a number of laptops that we didn't test for this update:
At $780, the Dell New Inspiron 13 7000 Non-Touch looked like a strong budget contender. It's nearly a half-pound heavier than the $750 Asus ZenBook UX330UA, though, and Laptop Mag's review notes that the touchscreen version of the Inspiron 13 7000 has poor battery life and a shallow keyboard. Even though the Inspiron 13 7000 is about a half-inch more compact than the ZenBook UX330UA and has nearly identical specs, the ZenBook's light weight and great battery life make it the better option.
We found reviews of the LG Gram 13Z970 that mentioned a weak lid, a flat keyboard, a dim display, and a poorly placed webcam.
Laptop Mag writes that the Lenovo IdeaPad 710S Plus has below-average battery life and an undersized right Shift key, while CNET's review of the Lenovo Yoga 720 Touch notes that it has shorter battery life than other ultrabooks with similar configurations.
The Huawei MateBook X has lackluster reviews from The Verge and PCMag.
We found that some laptops were too big or too heavy to compete with our ultrabook test group. For example, the Lenovo ThinkPad X270 is 0.8 inch thick. On the other hand, the Dell New Inspiron 13 7000 2-in-1, the Lenovo IdeaPad 320S and 720S, and the Acer Spin 5 all weigh at least 3.4 pounds. The Lenovo Flex 4, Lenovo ThinkPad P40 Yoga, and Acer Swift 3, as well as the Asus Pro P2430UA and Pro P2440UQ, all weigh at least 3.8 pounds.
The Razer Blade Stealth Touch, Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga 370, Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Yoga 2nd Gen, and Lenovo ThinkPad 13 Windows 2nd Gen, as well as the Asus ZenBook Flip S and ZenBook 3 Deluxe UX490UA, were all more than $1,400 for our minimum specs.
You can find two kinds of solid-state drive interface technology: PCIe and SATA. While PCIe is newer and supports faster speeds, most people will never notice a difference in performance between the two.Jump back.
We haven't encountered any issues with flaking paint or scratching on any of the XPS 13 models we've tested in the past three years, and we haven't seen any complaints online.Jump back.

Located near the Atlantic Coast, the area boasts an abundance of waterways and streams, and is known for the beauty of its oaks, pine trees and vibrant wildlife. Families looking to combine the convenience of city living with the natural beauty of Georgia should investigate homes for sale in Hinesville GA.
Hinesville was founded in 1837, and incorporated into a city in 1916. The city is named after Senator Charlton Hines who established the Liberty County seat in the area. Three signatories of the Declaration of Independence, George Walton, Lyman Hall and Button Gwinnett, called Hinesville home.
In 1940, a huge area near Hinesville was designated an anti-aircraft training center for the United States military, and called Camp Stewart. The influx of soldiers and support personnel resulted in a major increase in the size and population of Hinesville. Although Camp Stewart was deactivated after WWII, the base was designated a fort in 1956, and became the home in 1974 to the Twenty-fourth Infantry Division and the Seventy-fifth Infantry Regiment.
Since that time, fortunes of Hinesville have been tied to those of Fort Stewart. In fact, convenient access to the Fort Stewart Military Installation makes neighborhoods in Hinesville the ideal location for military families coming into the Coastal Georgia area. Consulting an agent to discuss real estate in Hinesville GA will highlight exciting opportunities available.
One of the most convenient and welcoming communities in Hinesville is the Oak Crest subdivision. The community offers stunning floor plans in quality homes built by well qualified builders. This is a new community featuring modern energy efficient homes, loaded with popular upgrades.
The average price per square foot for homes in the area in early 2014 was $65, with homes ranging from the low $150,000 to about $250,000 in developments referred to as Phase 1, The Enclave and The Retreat. Builders offer a wide range of floor plans, and consider as basic what other developments consider upgrades. For example, homeowners can choose from an array of granite countertops and stunning hardwood flooring.
Oak Crest could not be better located, as it is positioned in the center of Hinesville. Existing residents love Oak Crest for many reasons:
Many military and civilian families call Oak Crest home. They enjoy city amenities, quality homes, and a family-oriented neighborhood.

Senator Chuck Schumer (D-NY) argued that Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) wasn't like Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) because "she's not…say[ing] 'shut down the government or don't fund things if I don't get my way'" on Sunday's "State of the Union" on CNN.
"The soul of the Democratic Party is economic issues and I think on economic issues, we are united and Elizabeth Warren is, even if people don't agree with her, she's constructive. She's not like Ted Cruz, and say[ing] "shut down the government or don't fund things if I don't get my way.' She's working hard to move things in her direction and that's a good thing. Ted Cruz, on the other hand, people say he's a great political mover and shaker, he made huge mistakes yesterday" he stated.

Winona, Minnesota (WXOW) ---- "He said just keep on goin'. Keep on doing what you're doing. Then he looked up at me and he was gone."
Those were the last words of Janet Seabern's husband, Cliff who died last year. Both were busy before, but now, Janet vows to never stop. People are her priority. "I've got neighbors next door he's a single guy with 3 kids and I always try to cheer him up and cheer up the kids. I bake a lot and give it to them."
Janet volunteered her whole life. And in Winona-all over the place. At the hospital, the Lions Club, her church.
But what she's most known for is being a super landlord. Actually more like a mom to students from the college. We talk so much and I discovered that she's done all these things and she's volunteered with so many organizations and she's put her whole life into helping others - she really has.
Janet's gift is inspiring others through her thoughtfulness which she says anyone can do. The student who nominated her, Diane Laurence says Janet has changed her life. "She's made me a better person. She's told me stories that I'll always remember. She just left me an Easter basket the other day." And one for the neighbor kids who don't have a mom.
Besides following the advice of her beloved husband cliff why does this Jefferson Award Winner volunteer? "I have no idea but I like it. I tell some people to pitch in and help and some do and some don't."
And the ones that do learn to appreciate the simple things-like Garfield the cat, quality time around the table, and passing on all you've learned to a friend.

When I asked my trainer about taking Connor to some early season shows before our first event, I had no idea that the early season would come so...early.
"That's funny you bring that up, I was just checking a date on my phone for you. Would you be interested in showing Connor at a schooling show in Cincinnati on the 19th? Just Dressage?"
Yes, that's January 19th, weather permitting - three months before I thought we'd start showing. Thank goodness my trainer will make sure we are presentable. How on earth do you turn out a woolly mammoth of a Welsh Cob out for a show in sub-freezing weather? Is his clip show-ring acceptable? Where are my white breeches, for goodness' sake?!

Auburn history:
In 1848, a mining camp named North Fork Dry Diggins was renamed. The namesake was Auburn, New York. It began as a gold town. Once the gold panned out, the area was lucky to have the railroad come through. Orchards were also planted which helped the local economy. The current town of Auburn is apart from the "old town" Auburn. It has been restored to former greatness while retaining its gold town flavor. Both Auburns are thriving, growing areas.

Insects on Coins
4 minutes to read | Updated for 2018
Special Investigation
Insects! Some of the first words that come to mind are: disgusting, small, and unimportant. Yet not all people think these tiny creatures are any of those. But insects were important in ancient times. To honor them, the ancient Greeks, Romans, and Ephesians minted coins depicting insects ranging from bees to locusts. Some cultural entomologists believe that the ancient Greeks minted over 300 different coins with images of bugs. The Ephesians minted coins that depicted the honey bee for over six centuries.
What is Numismatics?
"The definition of numismatics is (nooomizomato'iks) n.: The study of coins, medals, and related objects such as paper money." Two other important terms that I will use are: "obverse (ob'vûrs) adj.: The front or principal side of anything, especially the side of a coin bearing the main design or device."1 And "reverse: (riovûrs') adj.: The back, rear, or secondary side of anything."
There was information on a total of five coins. The first coin is an ancient Greek stater. On its obverse is a locust on the right of a strand of wheat and on the left is the word "META." On its reverse is a strand of wheat with a dolphin on the left. It appears to be made of silver.
The second coin was a silver Tetradrachm that was minted in the ancient Greek city of Messana — now the modern city of Messina in Sicily. It depicts a cicada in the bottom center, eating what appears like an ear of corn, with a hare above it. "The design of the coin was mentioned by Aristotle, who states that the Tyrant of Messana, Anaxilas, was responsible for introducing hares into Sicily."
The third coin bore the image of a beetle in its center. It looks like it is made out of silver. The fourth, depicting a bee, comes from the ancient Greek town of Praesus at the eastern end of the island of Crete. Its obverse shows a picture of Persephone. On its reverse is a bee. It was minted sometime between 400 and 148 BC.
The fifth coin comes from the ancient Greek town of Elyrus (witch is now the modern town of Rhodhovani) located in southwestern Crete, also depicts a honey bee on its reverse. On its obverse is a male goat.
Paper Money
I found only one piece of paper money that has an insect on it. It is a bank note from Denmark's National Bank for one hundred Kroner. The note was printed in 1912. A picture of a moth is in its upper left hand corner.
The Importance of Insects
Insects are important to many cultures. To the Ephesians, the honey bee was the sacred symbol of Artemis, their center of worship. The honey bee was minted as the main design on their coins for almost six centuries. A grasshopper on the back of a lion could be a double reference connected to Hercules' battle with a lion and his freeing of Mt. Oeta of Locust. On some coins, a small picture of insects may be symbols of families, political leaders and religious leaders who were responsible for their minting. The butterfly, which represents the soul leaving the body, has been a symbol of death and resurrection in many European cultures since ancient times.
Even though many people today have a negative viewpoint regarding insects, some ancient cultures thought higher of them. The Romans also minted their own coins depicting insects until the fall of the Roman Empire, after which coins being minted with insects depicted virtually ceased. While it is uncommon today for a piece of currency to be minted with an insect on it, one is minted every so often.

Irish Hiking Scarf heading for the post office
The Irish Hiking Scarf is knitted, washed and ready to head overseas. It ended up a little longer than I expected, which is good as I was terrified it would be far too short. I hope my pal enjoys wearing it as much as I enjoyed knitting it. This has been a great experience - I have never knitted cables before so this took me out of my comfort zone, but it turned out to be much easier than anticipated. I'll head off to the post office tomorrow with 27 pieces of identification and documents to ensure the USA will let the parcel in. I've popped in a couple of Australian souvenirs which I hope get through.
Both my pals seem really lovely; I just hope my most recent emails have been getting through as I haven't heard for either of them lately.

This post is sponsored by Scotties Facial Tissues.
Allergy season is upon us! Luckily Scotties sent me an allergy care pack! We are fully stocked on Scotties Facial Tissues by Royal and made a pharmacy run to get all the kids their meds. So far 4 out of 6 kids have seasonal allergies and their prescriptions only do so much. Itchy eyes, runny noses, and sometimes a cough. I was lucky this year and was only miserable for a week, my kids have not been this lucky. Scotties tissues 3-ply or 3-ply with aloe are the best for this time of year, to keep you layered in comfort. If you don't have time to run to the store you can now get them delivered by Amazon, visit the Scotties section here.
My kids are not letting allergies slow them down! They are out jumping on the trampoline with friends. They take their meds with breakfast and don't let anything get in the way of having fun! I saw a post Scotties had on Facebook and it's been so helpful, you take an empty facial tissue box and use a rubber-band to attach it to a full box. That way you can put your used tissue right into the empty box and not have a gross tissue pile that kids tend to leave behind. Genius.
So get out and enjoy the summer! Don't let allergies keep you indoors! Scotties 3-ply tissue are layers of comfort for your face from runny nose, to watery and itchy eyes.

Three enterprising youth from Nashik who are committed to women safety have come up with software to ensure the same. These are software engineers based in Nashik and have developed software named "Me against Rape" which would help women in distress. The software was created following the rising concerns about the safety of women.
The software is available for free and can be downloaded into Android mobiles for free. The biggest advantage of the software is its one-touch facility. Women in trouble just need to press the button to seek help. Women are supposed to register a list of pre-determined numbers to whom messages will be sent at the press of a button.
When the button is released, time and location of the woman will also be sent. The software is also integrated with Google maps link. The latitude and the longitude of the person will be recorded every ten minutes and this can be produced as evidence later.
The software was developed over a week's time and intends to save women from miscreants in society. The other features of the software include audio recording facilities for verbal abuse. The recording can be done stealthily and can be produced when there is a necessity. The trio who developed the software are Anup Unnikrishnan aged 24 year, Gunwant Battashe aged 23 and Jayesh Bankar of 23.
They also demonstrated the functioning and facilities of the software to the Nashik Commissioner who termed it as an excellent option. Earlier a software "Nirbhaya" was created by a Pune based company Smartcloud Infotech Pvt. Ltd to help women in emergency situations. It was a mobile app which would send text messages to pre-determined contacts when a woman falls into some dangerous situation.
The app is currently available for android phones and will be soon made available for Windows mobiles and iPhones as well. The app can be downloaded here.

NO! We can complete any quantity on embroidery 1-1000's
Yes, but to reach the best volume pricing each item you order using the same embroidery design, placement & thread colors will be more cost effective.
Prices on larger orders can vary from time to time depending on the styles, colors and sizes you choose. On larger orders even a few cents can make a big difference, so we work to make sure you get the best possible pricing. We encourage you to speak with us at 410-861-8600 if you have an order of 300 pieces or more.
You can send us your digitized file by uploading it here through our Dropbox.
We can get your logo digitized for you with a set up fee. Set up fees start at $30 and go up from there depending on the amount of stitches needed in the design. You can send us your logo by uploading it here through our Dropbox.
Block capital lettering can be regularly executed as small as .2 of an inch, sometimes smaller on the proper fabric or fill, but .2 of an inch is the smallest recommended size for lettering. Lowercase lettering must be larger, around .25 of an inch, as the closed portions of letters, i.e. the loop on a p, b, or d, must be at or around .2 of an inch to stitch well. Serifed fonts, i.e. Times new Roman, and script fonts, do not run well at small sizes and will make your design look sloppy. They make small lettering illegible and run badly during production. To avoid text becoming too small, stack text in areas where space is horizontally limited, and be sure that any text included in a design is necessary to your application.
DESIGNS DIGITIZED FOR FLAT GARMENTS DO NOT ALWAYS RUN PROPERLY ON CAPS. Due to the construction of caps and the process used to embroider them, a different sequence must be used in the digitizing of caps. Most cap designs should not exceed 2.25 inches in height or 4 inches in width. A pocket logo can exceed this height. Consider different designs or design versions for flat garments and caps.
DESIGNS MUST BE DIGITIZED DIFFERENTLY FOR SOME MATERIALS. Some materials are difficult to embroider on. Sweatshirt knit and fleece bury stitches and make letters and other columns look narrow, pique, used for most polo shirts, breaks up small letters and causes distortion. Jackets with linings cause distortion and shift design registration. Lycra stretches and deforms designs. A design for fleece run on leather can cut the design from the garment like a medallion. The digitizer must adjust for the qualities of the fabric. One design can't be run on every material, but if the digitizer is notified of materials to be used he can make a more universal design, and when the materials are absolutely incompatible, can create a different version for the desired material. .
Color blending can be achieved with embroidery, but smooth gradients require at least 3 colors to execute. As the best designs will have fewer than 9 colors of thread, consider what effects are necessary. If a design has multiple gradients of different colors, it will likely have to be simplified for embroidery.
Designs may also need to be digitized differently for different colored garments. Though this is less likely to cause problems as fabric choice, different color schemes will look different when stitched out. Lighter threads tend to be thicker and cover differently than darker threads.
Remember: Embroidery is thread! It has some limitations. Lines thinner than thread cannot be created, and one should avoid packing too much small detail into an area. Too many colors and details on top of one another can mean a dense, uncomfortable design to wear.
Prices are determined by the amount of shirts, number of print colors, number of print locations, art time, turnaround time, and color of items. Contact us today to receive an estimate!
7-10 business days. Your lead time will be discussed during the quoting and order placement phase for your project.
We can print certain orders within days if necessary, however, rush charges may apply. Rush time/cost depends on our schedule at time of order. Contact us today with your project details!
We can print on almost any wearable material, towels, or fabrics made of cotton or polyester and nylon.
We can print up to six colors per imprint location. There are several artwork techniques to increase the number of perceived colors in a print. Some materials/products have limitations on how many colors can be imprinted.
Yes, as long as the same ink colors can be used on all tee shirts. If you need to change ink colors or inverse the screen that can also be done but additional charges will apply.
Depending on the artwork, the process to imprint logos on darker garments requires extra production steps which results in increased costs.
Yes, but if other setups or jigs are required additional charges may apply.
Yes but there are limitations on this product. We recommend embroidery for jackets.
No, we recommend embroidery for hats.
The emailed colors will not necessarily be accurate due to the color calibration on your monitor/printer. PMS (pantone) colors will be listed on your viewable file when appropriate.
Our pricing structure is based on volume imprints per design on every order.
Follow the washing instructions on the manufactures tag. Also, turn the t-shirt inside out when washing and drying. Pay attention to appropriate water temperature and drying temperature.
You can send us your file by uploading it here through our Dropbox.
We understand there are many ways to create our images and also know that putting them on a tee isn't always the sole reason for their creation. We receive everything from files built for the big screen from the studios to scans of hand-drawn sketches for school kids. Ultimately, our goal is to put them onto a shirt using only a limited amount of colors and since it's quite an involved process, providing the optimal file format is always a wise choice. Here's a breakdown of what kind of file to provide dependant on how it was created but first, let's start with the unacceptable formats.
Unacceptable file formats – For the purpose of screen-printing would be anything created in a Microsoft Office program. This includes Word, Power Point, Excel and basically all the rest. Faxes and sketches are also not considered acceptable art due to the fact that they have a LOT of work required to get them up to par. Most images taken from a website are normally 72 dpi and not considered acceptable art. Unless you know the file is large in size and high resolution, please be forewarned that most web images require quite a bit of work to make "printable" and will incur art charges. Also, some images are simply impossible to recreate accurately.
Acceptable file formats are as follows.
PHOTOSHOP – Please save as a PSD with all layers intact, at final print size and at 300 dpi.
ILLUSTRATOR – Please save at final print size, outline all fonts and whenever possible, call out desired PMS colors using the Pantone Solid Coated color book available with Illustrator. No need to save as a PDF or EPS file. AI is fine and recommended.
FLAT IMAGES – TIF, TIFF, BMP, JPG, JPEG, PNG, TGA, EPS, etc,. The important aspect to these file formats is their resolution. 300 dpi at final print size is desired.
IN DESIGN – Please save InDesign files as an EPS, outline all fonts and simply send the EPS file and linked artwork. Please do not send fonts.
FIREWORKS, FREEHAND, CORELDRAW, ETC,. – Please export as EPS and make sure all fonts are outlined / converted.
