Asus Eee PC 1000HE review
The attractive, 10-inch Eee PC 1000HE is the best netbook yet for frequent travellers, thanks to the most impressive battery life we've seen on any laptop. Benefiting from an excellent keyboard, the 1000HE is also a commendable performer, although integrated 3G would have made it even better Read more

Toshiba NB200 review
Toshiba's second entry into the netbook arena, the 10.1-inch NB200, is a valiant effort. It ticks all the netbook boxes, as well as offering a couple of very welcome extra features, like a shock-protected hard drive and a USB port that lets you charge mobile devices even when the NB200's turned off Read more

Samsung NC10 review
In a crowded netbook market, the 10-inch NC10 manages to stand out, thanks to impressive performance, good battery life, an excellent keyboard, and a fantastic, attractive design. We'd like to see high-speed Wi-Fi and 3G capability, but this is definitely not a netbook to be sniffed at Read more

Eee PC 1201N Seashell review
Thanks to its dual-core Atom processor and Nvidia Ion graphics chip, the 12.1-inch Eee PC 1201N Seashell offers among the best performance you'll find from a netbook. Its battery life isn't much cop by today's netbook standards, but this machine is well worth a look, especially if you fancy a spot of light gaming Read more

Eee PC 1005PE review
The 10.1-inch Eee PC 1005PE is the first netbook we've seen with Intel's next-gen Atom N450 CPU. This chip doesn't offer a massive performance boost over previous Atom offerings, but it does contribute to this system's excellent battery life, and the 1005PE is a handsome machine to boot Read more

Samsung X120 review
The 11.6-inch X120 is our favourite ultra-portable laptop with an ultra-low-voltage processor so far. Its battery life isn't its strongest feature, but it's an ideal size, it has a well-judged specification, and its price tag is very tempting. Its low-key design is also very appealing Read more

Samsung N140 review
Although the 10.1-inch N140 doesn't bring anything new to the netbook table, we can't knock it. Solidly built and attractively designed, its outstanding feature is its 10-hour battery life. Look no further if you want a reasonably priced netbook that can last all day away from the mains Read more
