Dell Latitude E6420 hands-on

The 14-inch Dell Latitude E6420 may have a sturdy shell and decent battery, but its unappealing design isn't likely to impress your business contacts. Our sample's performance wasn't great either. Read more

MSI GE620 review

The 15.6-inch MSI GE620 is no oil painting, but it offers brilliant performance for the price. If you want a gaming laptop that isn't covered in flashing lights, it's definitely worth a look. Read more

Dell Vostro V130 review

The 13.3-inch Dell Vostro V130 is a decent business laptop that offers a pleasant design, good build quality and workmanlike performance. Its average battery life is disappointing, though. Read more

Sony Vaio F series (VPCF13M0E/B) review

Speedy performance, an integrated Blu-ray drive and a slick design make the 16.4-inch Sony Vaio VPCF13M0E/B a desirable multimedia laptop. It's just a shame the screen isn't better. Read more

HP TouchSmart tm2-1010ea review

The 12.1-inch TouchSmart tm2-1010ea has two tricks up its sleeve. It can be used either as a standard laptop or you can swivel its touchscreen around and use it as a tablet PC. It works better as a laptop than a tablet, but it's worth a look if you're after a convertible machine Read more

Sony Vaio AW series (VGN-AW41MF/H) review

The 18.4-inch Vaio VGN-AW41MF/H desktop-replacement laptop is big, beefy and beautiful. A crisper screen would help it do full justice to 1080p video played back via its Blu-ray drive, but that's a minor flaw in one of the fastest Core 2 Duo laptops we've seen Read more

Advent Altro review

The 13.3-inch Altro is an unashamed attempt to emulate the MacBook Air. Considering it's almost half the price, it doesn't do too bad a job. Offering 3GB of RAM, strong wireless capabilities and a good keyboard, it's worth a look for those after a relatively cheap thin-and-light laptop Read more

HP Compaq 6735s review

Whether its sober design will appeal depends on your tastes, but there's no denying that the 15.4-inch Compaq 6735s is a well-built machine. Its full-size keyboard is comfortable to type on, the matte finish on the screen means it's legible in all lighting conditions, and it's a capable performer too Read more

Sony Vaio VGN-AW31M/H review

With an 18.4-inch screen, this is one serious slab of Sony technology -- and it has a price tag to match. Understated styling and a battery worth the name aren't normally to be found in desktop-replacement laptops, but the Sony Vaio AW31M/H is a versatile machine capable of more than playing Blu-ray movies Read more

Acer Aspire 6530 review

The configuration of the 16-inch Acer Aspire 6530 desktop-replacement laptop that we tested, the 6530-623G25Mn, is a stylish beast. While its AMD processor can't quite match Intel's offerings, it's a good all-rounder nevertheless, and it comes at a reasonable price too Read more
