Apple MacBook Pro (15-inch, spring 2010) review

Apple's latest 15-inch MacBook Pros look similar to their predecessors in terms of appearance, but their innards have received a welcome power boost. We'd still like to see an HDMI port, Blu-ray drive and 3G connectivity, but the high-end model that we reviewed delivered pleasingly powerful performance Read more

Lenovo ThinkPad Edge review

If you're after a thin laptop with built-in business software that you won't be ashamed to be seen with out of hours, the 13.3-inch ThinkPad Edge is a decent choice at an affordable price. The lack of an optical drive is annoying, but the keyboard, touchpad and screen are very good Read more

Acer Aspire Timeline 3810T review

The 13.3-inch Aspire Timeline 3810T boasts a slim, attractive design and a lightweight body, although we'd like to see an optical drive included. Compared to other slim 12- and 13-inch laptops, it also offers decent performance, but it's the extra-long battery life that really makes this machine stand out Read more

Sony Vaio Y series (VPCY11M1E/S) review

The slender, 13.3-inch Vaio VPCY11M1E/S won't make you yelp with excitement when it comes to performance, but it is very comfortable to use, with an excellent keyboard. Its funky bundled software also allows you to share media between the laptop and other devices, such as a PlayStation 3 or television Read more
