HP Envy 14-1195ea Beats Edition review

If you're after a stylish desktop-replacement machine, this is a cool twist on the Envy line of laptops. The trackpad is quite annoying though, and there's no Blu-ray player on board, so think carefully before throwing down your notes. Read more

HP Pavilion dv7-4050ea review

The 17.3-inch HP Pavilion dv7-4050ea laptop offers a swell design and decent performance. It's a shame about its terrible battery life, but, all things considered, this is a decent machine. Read more

HP Envy 17-1050ea review

HP says this laptop is the pinnacle of computing luxury, and we're inclined to agree. It'll cost you dearly, but the Envy 17 offers great design and performance. Read more

Samsung R530 review

The 15.6-inch Samsung R530 offers a good design and build quality but other laptops offer better performance for a similar price. Unless you're ultra-keen on the design, we'd advise shopping around before splashing out Read more

Acer Aspire 5551 review

The 15.6-inch Aspire 5551 isn't the most portable laptop in the world, since it's a fairly chunky beast and its battery life isn't great. But our configuration made up for that by offering speedy performance, courtesy of its triple-core AMD processor, at a reasonable price Read more

Acer Aspire 5553G review

The 15.6-inch Aspire 5553G laptop is about as visually exciting as a roof tile, but Acer's baked some pretty tasty components into this rather affordable pie. Chief among them is a quad-core AMD processor that delivers impressive performance Read more

Samsung R780 review

For the price, the 17.3-inch R780 is a great multimedia laptop. It looks great, it's comfortable to use and it offers solid performance, as well as an impressively bright screen. Its battery life is fairly pants, but otherwise it'll serve you well without breaking the bank Read more

Toshiba Satellite A660-15T review

The configuration of the Toshiba Satellite A660 that we reviewed, the A660-15T, has its flaws, but it's a great all-rounder nevertheless. Although its 16-inch screen could be more vivid, it offers strong performance, a carefully crafted design, and a great keyboard and trackpad Read more
