Samsung N350 review
The 10.1-inch Samsung N350 is highly portable, but its dual-core processor fails to deliver much of a performance boost over single-core netbooks. As such, it's hard to justify its higher price tag. 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

Sony Vaio X series (VPCX11S1E/B) review
We defy anyone not to be impressed by the 11.1-inch Vaio VPCX11S1E/B ultra-portable laptop. It offers netbook-esque performance and it's ludicrously expensive, but it's remarkably thin and light, and Sony's made surprisingly few compromises considering how slender it is Read more

Archos 10 review
The portable-media-player specialist's first netbook, the Archos 10, is a relatively attractive device with a fairly standard set of internal components. The 10-inch display's matte finish means it's equally usable indoors and out, and we appreciate the pre-installed antivirus software, but this netbook falls short in other areas 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

MSI Wind U135DX review
Apart from an uninspiring design, there's not much wrong with the MSI Wind U135DX. But it just doesn't do anything that makes it stand out from the crowd of competing netbooks. Read more

Fujitsu Lifebook P7010 review
For such a light, compact laptop, the Lifebook certainly punches above its weight, handling office and video-editing tasks with aplomb. Its real strength, though, is its battery life -- by swapping the DVD drive for an additional battery, the Lifebook can keep going for an astonishing ten hours Read more

Samsung N210 Plus review
Despite its name, the 10-inch Samsung N210 Plus is less of an update and more of a downgrade. Its inferior battery life means it's not as good a buy as the previous N210 netbook. Read more

ViewSonic VNB101 review
The 10.1-inch VNB101 doesn't do a great deal to stand out from the netbook crowd, but it doesn't do anything particularly wrong either. This machine is cute and pretty cheap too, so, for those who want to enjoy low-cost computing on the move, it's worth a gander Read more

Sony Vaio M series (VPCM13M1E) review
The Sony Vaio VPCM13M1E is a decent all-rounder, but it lacks some of the features that we've come to expect from netbooks in the £300 price bracket. Read more
