Northstar Air 14 review

A light all-rounder for study, travel, and everyday creative work.

Best for: Students and frequent travellers

The Northstar Air 14 balances portability with enough performance for everyday productivity, study and lighter creative work.

Its display and battery are the main attractions. Buyers who routinely connect several accessories should budget for a hub, while users with demanding editing workloads should consider a performance-focused model.
