Apple has plummeted to fifth place in LAPTOP's 'Best and Worst Laptop Brands 2017' survey. The company previously held the top position each year since the study debuted in 2010. While unfortunate, the drop is not unexpected as Apple has faced considerable backlash over its new MacBook Pro.

To pick the winners, losers and also-rans, we evaluated the 10 biggest laptop brands to determine which offer the best combination of quality products, cutting-edge innovation, helpful support, sleek designs and strong value. Because of its modest review scores, expensive products and lack of ports, Apple fell all the way down to fifth place after receiving top honors every year since the Best and Worst Brands debuted in 2010.

Each company was assigned a score based on a 100-point scale. Points are awarded in six different categories: Design, Reviews, Tech Support, Warranty, Innovation and Value and Selection.
