Samsung Series 9 NP900X3A (13-inch)
                  

 

The $1,649 Samsung Series 9 NP900X3A certainly won't be for every               

 wallet, but  this light, well-featured. However, its  higher-than-the-Air price will be hard to stomach.                      

                                            

Price: $1,499.99 - $1,638.89 (check prices)
