Apple MacBook Pro (17-inch, 2.4GHz) review

The Apple MacBook Pro has been refreshed and reenergised. While the looks are essentially the same as last year's model, you'll find faster processors and a new chipset, plus more memory and a larger hard drive. With more muscle under the hood, this Pro can certainly put on a show Read more

HP EliteBook 8730w review

A gorgeous 17-inch DreamColour display is the standout feature of the workstation-class EliteBook 8730w, but it's not the only aspect of this laptop that helps justify the premium price tag. The 8730w also boasts superb performance, excellent build quality and a good keyboard Read more

Toshiba Portege A600 review

The ultra-portable Toshiba Portege A600 isn't the lightest or thinnest laptop in its class, but good battery life and built-in HSDPA add to its portability credentials. It also has a built-in optical drive, which many of its rivals lack, and represents good value for money overall Read more

Apple MacBook Air 11-inch review

Apple's latest iteration of the 11-inch MacBook air packs excellent performance inside a razor-thin body. Its high price and sparse port selection means it won't appeal to everyone though. Read more

Apple MacBook Air 13-inch, 2010 review

The 13-inch Apple MacBook Air is expensive and in many ways restrictive, but a stunning design, great battery life and brilliant ease of use mean this laptop is more than style over substance. Read more

Acer Aspire 5741 review

It lacks gaming prowess, but the 15.6-inch Acer Aspire 5471's good looks, impressive performance and long battery life make it a worthwhile budget buy. Read more

Toshiba Satellite L775 review

Gaming isn't the forte of our version of the Toshiba Satellite L775, the L775-119. In most other areas, though, this is a fine 17.3-inch laptop, offering a great screen, comfortable keyboard and speedy performance. Read more

Alienware M15x review

Capable of being configured to your heart's delight, the 15.6-inch M15x gaming laptop can quickly become very pricey, and it's not particularly portable either, but there's no denying that it's a powerful performer. You'd be hard-pressed to find a better-built or faster 15-inch laptop Read more

Samsung M70 review

It's not often we see something truly innovative in the laptop market, but this Samsung is extraordinary -- you can completely detach the enormous 19-inch screen and plug it into a separate stand. But although it redefines the term 'desktop replacement', its components and performance are decidedly last-gen Read more
