Gone are the days of ink and quill. The ultimate tool for a writer in today’s world is a laptop. With handwriting, humans could only write as many as 20 words in a minute, but did you know that the average typing speed of an adult is twice as that?

Content writers, however, are not your average typists. They spend hours on end in front of a screen typing and Book editing content. If you’re a content writer, then investing in a good laptop for your writing needs can bring a big, positive change.

But why the need to look for a good laptop especially for a content book ghostwriter? Because you do not have to spend a fortune on an unnecessarily powerful graphic processing machine when you’re mostly only going to work with word processors and web browsers.

Whether you’re looking for a tool for writing blogs, short story writing, novels, or even songwriting, these machines are going to enhance your experience significantly:

Dell XPS 13

The XPS 13 is the best bet you can make if you have the dough to spend on a laptop. We can assure you as much that it’s worth every penny. To sweeten the deal, you don’t have to pay for the extra features, because the base model has everything you need and nothing that pushes the cost too high.

It boasts the best keyboard and trackpad that you can ever dream of in a laptop that will give you the premium flagship experience. The best part is its battery backup that is unmatchable for other laptops on this list.

HP Spectre x360

The Spectre 360 is a 2-in-1 with a detachable screen that works as a tablet. If you’re used to carrying your work everywhere you go, this notebook is going to be your best friend for a long time. You’re going to have a love-hate relationship with it. Your hands will love that sweet, sweet keyboard, but you’re going to hate having to detach it for the tablet mode.

It won’t be an overstatement to say that Spectre x360 sets standards for premium keyboards in laptops of its size. If you ever find one, see if you can pull your hands away after you write a sentence on it

Google Pixelbook Go

Once again, with a keyboard that feels like a Rolls Royce among Buick’s, for a hardcore content writer the Pixelbook Go is the way to go. It is as quieter as it gets, but keeps its tactility intact. Couple that with a brilliant, sharp screen without glare, and you have yourself the most comfortable cockpit you can imagine as a writer with lengthy assignments.

It has everything you need from a laptop that works great outdoors, cafes, and libraries. That includes a battery life of 12 hours that ensures you’re never stressing about running out of juice before finishing your daily word count.

There isn’t anything left to ask for in a laptop now, is there?

Lenovo Ideapad

Not everyone can squeeze out the extra bucks it takes to afford the ultimate writer’s experience out of their laptop. But why should you compromise on the essentials when you can get all you will need as a content writer and even some extra bells and whistles that some of the flagships these days may lack.

No matter how much time you spend researching, eliminating the extras you can compromise on, while still being able to demand the features you want your new laptop to deliver, your research is bound to lead you to the Ideapad.
