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 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

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

Asus Eee PC 1025C Flare review
The Asus Eee PC 1025C offers astounding battery life, but it's let down by poor performance and an unimpressive screen. 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

Lenovo IdeaPad S10-2 review
The 10.2-inch IdeaPad S10-2 netbook is a worthwhile update to the popular S10. Although Lenovo's jettisoned the ExpressCard slot, the S10-2 sports a pleasingly slim design, decent keyboard and performance, and very good battery life, making it a respectable netbook overall 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

Sony Vaio Mini W series (VPCW11S1E) review
The 10.1-inch Vaio Mini W series VPCW11S1E offers typical netbook performance for a relatively lofty price. But it also offers the excellent construction and design that's typical of Sony, as well as a 1,366x768-pixel, high-definition display. Overall, it's an attractive package Read more

Packard Bell EasyNote XS review
With the Asus Eee PC 701 all the rage, Packard Bell has tried its hand at a low-cost, miniature laptop in the EasyNote XS. Sporting a larger hard drive than the Eee and a digital video output, this extra small laptop definitely has the gumption to play big Read more

Elonex Websurfer review
The Websurfer won't make a satisfactory main computer, but it's a good choice if you're after a lightweight and inexpensive netbook for Web surfing and basic productivity tasks. At this price, the solid build quality and integrated VoIP phone are welcome bonuses Read more
