Acer TravelMate 3022WTMi review

Acer TravelMate 3022WTMi review

With the ultraportable TravelMate 3020 series, Acer has let its hair down and come up with a striking white system. This Core Duo-based laptop is a good performer and has a neat built-in digital camera. However, we'd prefer an integrated optical drive (even at the expense of a little extra weight) Read more

Dell Adamo review

The Adamo, one of the most keenly anticipated laptops of 2009, is a remarkably thin machine, with plenty of high-end visual touches that help it to live up to its luxury billing. It's a decent performer for a low-power laptop, but, at this price, we'd expect battery life to be better Read more

Dell Inspiron 15 review

The 15.6-inch Inspiron 15 is a highly customisable laptop, but you'll get a solid chassis and good keyboard no matter which configuration you opt for. Adding on the extras will make the cost rise quickly, but it's possible to build a capable machine for an affordable price Read more

Sony Vaio P series (VPCP11S1E/P) review

The 8-inch Vaio P-series VPCP11S1E/P mini-laptop is hard to beat when it comes to portability, and it packs some welcome new features that were sorely lacking in its predecessor. It's very expensive but, if you can afford it, and you want a stylish machine for basic tasks, it's worth a look Read more

Sony Vaio VPCCA1S1E review

The 14-inch Sony Vaio C series VPCCA1S1E has a striking, deliberately plasticky design, and comes in a range of colours you'll either love or despise. Sadly, the rest of the laptop isn't as unique -- it's a fairly average machine, overall. Read more

MSI X340 review

If you think the MacBook Air is too expensive and netbooks are too small, the 13-inch, super-light, super-thin X340 will be worth investigating. The keyboard and battery life aren't overly impressive, but it’s got good connectivity and its looks will certainly get you drooling Read more

Asus W5000 review

Style-conscious bohemians who want to steer away from the bland offerings of most laptop manufacturers will find the Asus W5000 appeals to their all-white tastes. It offers reasonable -- if unspectacular -- performance and battery life, and a cool little Webcam that pivots above the screen Read more

Sony Vaio VGN-N38Z/W review

Sony has released the solid and decently priced Vaio VGN-N38Z/W. With long battery life and good performance, its colours are fantastic. The model sits in middle ground between a portable and desktop replacement, while some of the design aspects resemble those found on Apple's MacBook range Read more

Dell Inspiron 11z review

The mid-range Inspiron 11z ultra-portable laptop that we were given to review proved a capable machine. Its trackpad was poor, but its ultra-low-voltage processor delivered better performance than that of more expensive ULV laptops, and its 11.6-inch screen was great Read more

Averatec 4265 review

Averatec's thin-and-light 4265 won't set the world alight with its performance, but it's perfectly adequate for normal word-processing and housekeeping tasks, it has a DVD burner and it looks cool Read more
