AI and Windows PCs are all the rage right now and there's plenty of competition for the best business laptop, but Dynabook is now getting in on the action by announcing the 14-inch Tecra A40-M and 16-inch Tecra A60-M.
Both laptops come equipped with Windows 11 Pro by default, and Intel is supplying its latest Core Ultra (Series 1) processors to take full advantage of the AI features Microsoft included as part of its Copilot+ PCs.
The 14- and 16-inch displays are 16:10 with touch options.

Dynabook is known for making rugged PCs designed for the modern workplace, and the 16-inch Tecra A60-M is the company's first 16-inch laptop and includes a full-size 10-key backlit keyboard.
The company says the 16-inch model is aimed at creative and financial professionals, along with developers and engineers, while the 14-inch model is aimed at professionals, educators and students.
Both laptops feature Microsoft’s Copilot AI suite, which offers many different ways to make the most of AI in the workplace, including as part of the Microsoft 365 suite. There’s also AI noise reduction on calls and a 5MP webcam with AI enhancements like background blur for sharper video conference calls.
The Tecra A40-M and Tecra A60-M have fairly slim designs and exceed the MIL-STD-810H standard for durability. Dynabook has coated both in a durable dark metallic paint that comes with an antimicrobial coating to ensure a more hygienic setup.
Safety in front, party in the back
Security is obviously very important to business professionals and Dynabook has focused on adding some of the most requested tools. Both come with a Trusted Platform Module (dTPM) 2.0 and can be equipped with biometric facial and/or fingerprint scanners, as well as smart card readers.
On top of that, the Dynabook includes a Wi-Fi 6E port and a LAN port, along with business essentials like an HDMI port, Thunderbolt 4, USB Type-A, and a microSD card slot.
The Tecra A40-M and Tecra A60-M will have to do a lot to compete with our picks for the best business laptops, namely the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Yoga Gen 8 and the Acer Travelmate P4, but what we've seen so far is very promising.
