Acer Aspire One 522 review

The Acer Aspire One 522 is a decent netbook that offers good looks and a great display. It's a shame it's not powerful enough to play hi-def video, though, and its battery life isn't very impressive. Read more

HP Mini 210-1156sa review

It does nothing to separate itself from the rest of the 10.1-inch netbook herd, but the HP Mini 210-1156sa is still a well-designed machine. Shame about the iffy battery life, though. Read more

Acer Aspire One 521 review

The Acer Aspire One 521 has an unconventional CPU, but it doesn't give this netbook an edge over its rivals in terms of performance. Nevertheless, it's a well designed machine. Read more

Acer Aspire One D260 (D260-2Dkk) review

The 10.1-inch Acer Aspire One D260-2Dkk isn't particularly revolutionary, but it doesn't do anything wrong, either. It's a comfortable, lightweight netbook with a slender design and decent battery life. Read more

Dell Mini 10 (1012) review

Highly customisable, but with a more powerful processor nestled inside than previous Mini 10s, the 1012 wants to sit in your backpack and be your new best friend. Does its high-resolution 10-inch display and meaty six-cell battery warrant the premium over cheaper netbooks? Read more

Dell Inspiron Duo hands-on

The Dell Inspiron Duo is part netbook and part tablet. Its design is innovative, but we'll have to wait and see whether it's actually as good as either a dedicated netbook or tablet. Read more

Toshiba AC100 review

The Android-based Toshiba AC100 netbook is let down by a frustrating and confusing interface. We can't recommend it over the horde of standard netbooks on the market. Read more

Samsung N220 review

The Samsung N220 isn't a hugely ambitious netbook, but it looks good, offers excellent battery life and is highly usable. We like it Read more

Asus Eee PC Lamborghini VX6 review

The Asus Eee PC Lamborghini VX6 might resemble its supercar namesake, but sadly it's not got as much oomph. It's faster than most netbooks, but as it costs as much as a normal laptop, it's hard to recommend splashing out. Read more

Sony Vaio M series (VPCM12M1E/P) review

The 10.1-inch Vaio M-series VPCM12M1E/P is a decent netbook. It doesn't break any new ground when it comes to performance or battery life, but it packs some impressive hardware, including a bright and clear screen, and a comfortable keyboard Read more
