Asus-Automobili Lamborghini VX7 review

The 15.6-inch Asus-Automobili Lamborghini VX7 laptop certainly looks as mad as the cars it imitates, but it's let down by poor construction and software issues. Similarly powerful machines can be found for less dosh. Read more

Asus G73Jh review

During testing of the 17.3-inch G73Jh gaming laptop, we had to change our underwear on several occasions, such is the excitement caused by its blistering performance. It's not just the fastest laptop we've seen so far though -- it's also a machine of understated beauty, and excellent value for money Read more

MSI GX723 review

The GX723 desktop-replacement laptop won't thrill your socks off, but it's a solid all-rounder nevertheless. Packing loads of connections, a gaming-capable GPU, and an instant overclocking feature that boosts the laptop's speed by a significant amount, it's worth considering Read more

MSI GT725 review

If you can overlook its hideous appearance, the 17-inch GT725 is a relatively affordable and extremely capable gaming laptop. With a good screen and Blu-ray drive, it's also a sound choice for people whose priority is media-playback capability. Overall, it's a great desktop replacement Read more

HP HDX X18 review

It's expensive, the trackpad isn't great and its design is overly showy, but, apart from that, the 18-inch HDX X18 offers pretty much everything you could want in an entertainment laptop. Boasting a Blu-ray drive and 1080p display, it's a hugely powerful machine that offers a tonne of features Read more

Asus G71V review

The Asus G71V is designed to be the ultimate desktop-replacement laptop. It uses the first quad-core processor designed for portable machines, has a whopping 1TB of disk space, a Blu-ray combo drive and a high-end graphics card. It's unnecessarily ugly, but brutally quick Read more

Panasonic Toughbook CF-52 review

The Panasonic Toughbook CF-52 is a semi-ruggedised desktop replacement for use in the field. Its keyboard is splash resistant and it has a solid outer shell with a built-in carrying handle. Plus, the laptop should survive a 76cm drop, if you happen to knock it off your desk Read more

HP Pavilion dv9790ea review

If you're after a desktop replacement laptop that'll handle strenuous activity, the dv9790ea is more than fit enough for the job. It's powered by a fast 2.5GHz Intel Core 2 Duo T9300, backed up by a generous 4GB of RAM, so it's no surprise that it breaks little sweat in terms of performance Read more
