Acer Aspire 7745G review

The 17.3-inch Acer Aspire 7745G has many plus points, including its attractive appearance and decent performance. Its let down, though, by the poor vertical viewing angle of its screen. Read more

Dell Inspiron 15R review

The Dell Inspiron 15R's battery life isn't great, and its design is unlikely to set your heart aflame. But we were really impressed by the performance of this 15.6-inch laptop, given its price. Read more

Toshiba Qosmio X500 review

The configuration of the 18.4-inch Qosmio X500 laptop that we reviewed, the X500-116, is a beast of a machine. It's huge and fairly ugly, but it packs a powerful punch in terms of performance and features. Notably, its 1080p screen brings out all the beauty of Blu-ray movies Read more

Asus N53SN review

The 15.6-inch Asus N53SN is a very capable laptop, thanks to its powerful chip and graphics card. Its design leaves something to be desired, but this machine's worth a look if you want plenty of grunt at an affordable price. Read more

Toshiba Satellite L650 review

The 15.6-inch Satellite L650-12Q may be cheap, but it offers plenty of reasons to be cheerful. It looks good, it's well built, and it'll handle with aplomb pretty much anything you throw at it. As long as you don't mind its limited connectivity options, this machine will put a smile on your Chevy Chase Read more

Acer Aspire 5553G review

The 15.6-inch Aspire 5553G laptop is about as visually exciting as a roof tile, but Acer's baked some pretty tasty components into this rather affordable pie. Chief among them is a quad-core AMD processor that delivers impressive performance Read more

Dell Studio 17 (Windows 7, touchscreen) review

There's plenty to like about the 17.3-inch, touchscreen Dell Studio 17. It's a speedy performer, its audio performance is great, and its multi-touch functionality is implemented well. It's expensive for a machine in Dell's mid-range series, but it's a competent replacement for a desktop PC Read more

Toshiba Qosmio F750-10Q review

The 15.6-inch Toshiba Qosmio F750-10Q has some powerful components. Its glasses-free 3D system is interesting, but we're not totally convinced by it. Read more

Acer Aspire 5942G review

The 15.6-inch Aspire 5942G desktop-replacement laptop offers impressively speedy performance and plenty of features, including a Blu-ray drive. Its screen and appearance fail to thrill, but you could easily pay much more for a machine with the 5942G's capabilities Read more

Samsung RV510 review

The 15.6-inch Samsung RV510 certainly has its good points, including an excellent keyboard and vibrant screen, but its sluggish processor means it's outclassed by similarly priced rivals. Read more
