Samsung R730 review

The 17.3-inch R730 desktop-replacement laptop is big, red and cheap -- and we like it. You won't get mind-melting performance from it, but it's an attractive and dependable day-to-day machine that will serve well for both business and pleasure purposes Read more

The Fujitsu Siemens Amilo Pro V3515 is a bargain laptop that has an impressive battery life. The keyboard feels good to type on and there are plenty of connections available on the machine. Despite its low price, you are treated to integrated Wi-Fi, which is an added bonus Read more

The 15.6-inch Asus K50C-SX009V laptop may have a low asking price, but it only delivers netbook levels of performance. Read more

Advent Roma 1000 review

The 15.6-inch Roma 1000 is one of the cheapest Windows 7 laptops that money can currently buy. Considering its low price, it's also tastefully designed, and its keyboard is particularly good. Capable of handling most productivity tasks, it's worth a look for bargain hunters Read more

Lenovo IdeaPad S12 review

With a great full-size keyboard and bright, crisp 12-inch screen, the IdeaPad S12 combines the look and feel of a laptop with the performance and price of a netbook. We'd like to see it sporting a more powerful processor but it offers a good compromise between the two categories Read more

HP G62 review

The version of the 15.6-inch HP G62 that we saw, the G62-450SA, has its plus points, but, overall, it's a fairly average laptop both in terms of performance and design. You can get similar machines for slightly less cash. Read more

Toshiba Satellite Pro S300 review

The attractive Toshiba Satellite Pro S300 series of desktop-replacement laptops benefits from a sturdy design and excellent keyboard. Various flavours are available for users with different demands, but all versions are weighty and have low battery life, detracting from their portability Read more

Toshiba Satellite L300 review

Toshiba has a strong reputation for being able to put together budget laptops that have the look and feel of more expensive machines. The L300 has a rock-bottom price tag of just £390, so we were intrigued to see whether Toshiba had managed once again to avoid the usual pitfalls of budget machines 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
