Sony Vaio E series (VPCEA3S1E) review

The Sony Vaio EA3S1E is a great looking laptop that's comfortable to use and has a speedy processor. It's only let down by its weak battery life and sub-par gaming performance. Read more

Packard Bell EasyNote MB review

Packard Bell isn't the first brand that springs to mind when we think of gorgeous laptops. But the company aims to change perceptions with its latest range, which includes the stylish EasyNote MB desktop-replacement. With a fairly powerful spec, it's very good value for money Read more

HP Pavilion dm4-1050ea review

The Pavilion dm4-1050ea's all-metal chassis makes it feel like a high-class piece of kit, as does its high-resolution, 14-inch screen. Its lack of a dedicated graphics card means you won't be playing the latest games on this machine, but it offers decent performance in other areas Read more

Acer TravelMate Timeline 8371 review

You'll want to spatter your brains all over the wall if you try playing games on the 13.3-inch TravelMate Timeline 8371, but it's a good laptop in almost every other regard. With an attractive, understated design, a capable ultra-low-voltage CPU and good battery life, the 8371 has won us over Read more

Samsung R610 review

For a laptop with a Blu-ray drive, the attractive R610 is relatively cheap, and the aspect ratio of its 16-inch screen means you can watch high-definition films without any annoying black bars. It's also a decent multitasking machine, and its keyboard and connectivity options aren't bad either Read more

Acer Aspire 1825PT review

The 11.6-inch Aspire 1825PT is a two-trick pony. You can either use it as you would a normal laptop, or you can swivel its touchscreen around and use it as an iPad-esque tablet PC. Either way, our review sample's performance proved pleasingly zippy, and it offers greater connectivity than Apple's device too Read more

Dell Vostro V130 review

The 13.3-inch Dell Vostro V130 is a decent business laptop that offers a pleasant design, good build quality and workmanlike performance. Its average battery life is disappointing, though. Read more

Samsung R510 review

Whether you're after a work or a leisure laptop, with a 15.4-inch screen and fairly impressive performance, the stylish and affordable R510 is well worth investigating. It also benefits from a sizeable, comfortable keyboard with an anti-bacterial coating, although we expected to see more USB ports Read more

Sony Vaio VGN-BZ11MN review

The Vaio VGN-BZ11MN is a cost-effective workhorse of a laptop, with a very solid magnesium alloy chassis, an anti-glare 15.4-inch screen and a huge bundle of software. At just £650, you get a 2.26GHz Core 2 Duo processor, 2GB of RAM and a 160GB hard drive -- plenty of power for all your office apps Read more

Samsung Q45 review

The Samsung Q45 is a high performing laptop, with enough processing power to give a larger notebook a run for its money. The Q45 is small enough to be easily portable, looks good in its glossy black casing and offers great colour reproduction on its 12-inch screen Read more
