    go to a laptop dealer and see what is available!


    with such an open question


    1: you have not stated its use


    2: you are inviting 50 people to squabble telling you what "they" think is the best


    and from experience , its doubtful a new user will bother to come back to the thread and answer any questions




    PS: the best laptop in the UK costs well in excess of £1000




    may I suggest http://www.saveonlaptops.co.uk/9S7-181212-427-MSI-GT80-2QE(TITAN-SLI)-427UK_1809678.html?gclid=CjwKEAjw3qu5BRC-0uCw8O6Y5zcSJAA_WtdLgA208BhqlZKGuu3U9_BS3mEWOFCKF5qdg1fYc8fP2RoCFELw_wcB

    I agree that this topic has a distinct aroma of spicy pork. However, I'm feeling charitable, so ...


    OP, you can buy a perfectly servicable laptop for much less than £1000 - here's just some examples : https://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=nb_sb_ss_c_0_9?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=hp+laptop&sprefix=hp+laptop%2Caps%2C410


    On the other hand, a truly top-spec machine could set you back well over £3000, as shown in the link that Pappa Golf supplied.


    There is absolutely no point in anyone even attempting to give meaningful advice until you can tell us what you intend to use it for. If you just want to surf t'interweb and knock up a few Word documents then the cheapest one available will be more than adequate. If you want to be playing the very latest fast-paced games, doing CAD design and serious heavy-duty video editing then you'll need a totally different spec.

    Best?
    Best for what?
    You need to tell us what is your priority.
    e.g. weight? size? touchscreen? IPS? 4k? battery life? gaming? office work?

    OK, if deciding on the Best Laptop is too difficult for us, how about suggesting which is the Best MotorCar? :A
