Touchscreens are probably better suited to large laptops than small ones when it comes to collaborative working, so we went in search of the best available option.
The HP Laptop-17Z is the most affordable 17-inch touchscreen laptop on the market right now, available at the time of writing for only $349.99 (roughly £265).
Aimed primarily at SMBs (hence the rather subdued design), the laptop comes with an AMD Athlon Gold 3150U dual-core processor with AMD Radeon graphics, 8GB of RAM and a 17.3-inch SVA backlit touchscreen display with a resolution of 1600 x 900 pixels.

It also features a 2TB SATA hard disk drive, 41Whr battery, dedicated numeric keypad, DVD writer (remember these?), an HP TrueVision HD camera with digital microphone and 802.11ac Wi-Fi with a free $10 color upgrade to Snow White.
Despite its business focus, the laptop can also be used for gaming at HD+ resolutions for much longer periods; HP claims the device can last for up to eight hours.
Other features include a Gigabit Ethernet LAN, card reader, three USB ports and an HDMI connector. For an additional $79, you can also upgrade to a 3-year warranty that includes accidental damage, which will also net you a full rebate if it can’t be repaired.
