Apple MacBook Air 13-inch 2011 review

Apple's 13-inch MacBook Air offers the same super-slim and sturdy design as its predecessor, but packs in a more powerful processor. Read more

Apple MacBook Air 13-inch, 2010 review

The 13-inch Apple MacBook Air is expensive and in many ways restrictive, but a stunning design, great battery life and brilliant ease of use mean this laptop is more than style over substance. Read more

Lenovo ThinkPad X300 review

The Lenovo ThinkPad X300 thin-and-light laptop is the sleekest ThinkPad yet. It incorporates the best of the latest featherweight laptops -- a solid-state hard drive, lots of ports and a thin skin -- and adds its own features, from WWAN to a built-in DVD burner Read more

Lenovo ThinkPad X301 review

With a chassis that's just as ultra-slim and feather-light as the X300, the Lenovo ThinkPad X301 adds Intel's latest Centrino 2 platform, including the just-released ultra-low-voltage Core 2 Duo processor. This makes it faster than its predecessor and much longer-lasting than its competitors Read more

Apple MacBook Air 11-inch 2010 review

The 11-inch Apple MacBook Air is remarkably thin and really enjoyable to use. But its paltry port selection and lack of real grunt mean it won't appeal to everyone. Read more

Acer TravelMate 3012WTMi review

Acer's second dual-core laptop, the TravelMate 3012WTMi is a small, light and highly portable computer. Its wide-screen format, built-in camera and Bluetooth VoIP phone should all appeal to users who travel -- especially those who use the Internet for voice and video calling Read more

Dell Adamo XPS review

A real tentpole of Dell's new focus on high-end design, the Adamo XPS is an innovative take on the super-thin laptop. With a large lid that raises the keyboard to aid typing when it's opened, it's certainly a conversation piece. But is it worth the trade-off in battery life and price? Read more

Asus UX30 review

Asus' designers clearly had Apple's MacBook Air in mind when they created the 13.3-inch UX30 thin-and-light laptop. It bears a steep price tag and its battery life could be better, but it's a gorgeous-looking specimen and its ultra-low-voltage processor makes it a strong performer too Read more

Apple MacBook Air review

Apple's new MacBook Air may not be a true ultraportable, but it still breaks new ground. At just 19mm at its thickest part, Apple's so-called 'world's thinnest notebook' includes most of the usual MacBook features, plus a multi-touch touchpad for gesture controls Read more
