Laptops under 2 pounds

pumas

I've been looking for a good laptop or 2 in 1 that is under 2 pounds. But I haven't found a single laptop that weight. Do any of you know about some?

As @Haas_ said the LG Gram is the first thing that comes to mind. But any ultrabook is relatively light given their small chassis. Do you have a budget and any other specific requirements other than weight?

Microsoft Surface Go?  Under $600 with that kind of weight requirement doesn't leave you many options.

Chrome books are light, but I’m not sure about the 2 pound weight limit.

I recommend atleast under 5 pounds if you're aiming for portability, 2 pounds is a big stretch, and you're likely to lose cooling capabilities, hardware, ports, etc. weight isn't everything you know

Any particular reason why it's gotta be 2 pounds or lighter?

I'm a student and my school requires a lot of binders and papers as well as a personal device. My backpack at this point is 15 pounds on its own without my 5 pound chromebook.

I think you can aim for a more realistic target like "around three pounds."  Under two limits you to systems that are either pretty slow, pretty expensive or sometimes both.
