Apple MacBook Air 13-inch 2011 review

Apple's 13-inch MacBook Air offers the same super-slim and sturdy design as its predecessor, but packs in a more powerful processor. Read more

Samsung Q530 review

The Samsung Q530 is a great-looking laptop that offers powerful performance. We wish its screen had a sharper resolution, though. Read more

Apple MacBook Pro (15-inch, summer 2009) review

The latest update to Apple's premium 15-inch MacBook Pro makes only minor modifications. Nevertheless, a faster CPU, better battery and the addition of an SD card slot, together with a price cut, make it a substantial improvement on its predecessor Read more

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

Apple MacBook Pro (13-inch, summer 2009) review

Apple has promoted its basic 13-inch, aluminium unibody MacBook to the Pro series, adding more features while reducing the price of the base configuration. The end result is one of the most universally useful laptops available, although there's still some features we'd like to see included Read more

Apple MacBook (aluminium 2008 edition) review

There's a new breed of MacBook in town, and it's more attractive, more powerful and more expensive than ever before. The new design has much in common with the aluminium-swathed MacBook Pro, but sports a smaller 13.3-inch screen and less graphical power Read more

Dell XPS 15z review

The Dell XPS 15z offers great performance with an attractive, slim design. If you're after a MacBook Pro but can't quite get the cash, this laptop may be a good alternative. 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

AJP M555N-E review

The M555N-E impresses thanks to its striking silver finish, and it's light and compact enough for any frequent traveller. It also comes with a free 3G card for high-speed Internet connection away from a Wi-Fi hotspot, and it's good value for money. Don't expect it to run games, though -- its performance is disappointing Read more

Apple PowerBook G4 (12-inch, SuperDrive) review

The 12-inch PowerBook offers a better combination of power, features and battery life for the price than any other Apple laptop. It's priced above most of the competition at this size, but you get a roomy 80GB hard drive, a DVD burner and an absolutely best-in-class software package Read more
