A few years ago, if you really wanted a white laptop there was only one option – the snow white Apple laptop, the Macbook. These days however there is a huge variety of choices of white laptops from several different manufacturers with many different specifications and price tags to match. So how exactly do you cut down the list of possibilities to find the perfect laptop to suit you?

It’s a good idea to start by thinking about the size of laptop that will be suitable for you. White laptops come in a range of sizes from tiny 10 inch screen netbooks to 17 inch wide screen desktop replacements. Most people go for something in between these sizes but it really depends on what you will be using the laptop for and how portable it needs to be.

If you’re planning on travelling with your laptop, want something ultra small and light that will fit in your bag easily, or you just want a basic machine for surfing the net, word processing and other non intensive tasks then a small netbook will probably suit you fine. These tiny white laptops are ideal for anyone wanting an easily transportable computer and are also very affordable. They are produced by several companies such as the Acer Aspire One, The Asus Eee pc and the MSI Wind.

For people wanting to do some serious graphics work on their laptops such as artists, designers and illustrators or if you just like lots of screen space so you can have multiple windows open at once or watch movies and play games on a nice big screen, then a 17 inch white laptop is for you. These larger laptops are often the ‘premium’ model in the range with enhanced power and specifications for intensive computer tasks. One popular laptop is the 17 inch white MacBook Pro from Apple but there are also several versions available from PC manufacturers including Toshiba, HP, Dell, Sony and others.

For laptop users who fall in-between these two groups, there are many mid range white laptops that will be suitable for you. Deciding between a 13 inch or 15 inch screen is a matter of portability and usability – 15 inch laptops are heaver and bigger but give you more screen space to work with. 13 inch models are probably best for frequent travelers and people who want to keep the size and weight down.

When comparing models from different manufacturers look at the specifications carefully to see if you are getting value for money. It is not uncommon for a white laptop with nearly exactly the same specs to be hundreds of dollars price difference between two different manufacturers. Looks are also important to many people so find an attractive stylish white laptop that appeals to you.

There are lots of white laptop reviews available on the internet so you can get more of an idea of a particular model’s value for money before you buy. It is also a good idea to try out the machine in person if you can so you can feel how the keyboard and track-pad work for you and how solidly the laptop seems to be built.
