Acer Aspire 1825PT review

The 11.6-inch Aspire 1825PT is a two-trick pony. You can either use it as you would a normal laptop, or you can swivel its touchscreen around and use it as an iPad-esque tablet PC. Either way, our review sample's performance proved pleasingly zippy, and it offers greater connectivity than Apple's device too Read more

Acer Aspire 5336 review

The 15.6-inch Acer Aspire 5336 laptop is as cheap as chips. Although its performance is hardly top-drawer, it's a bargain for those with modest computing needs. Read more

Acer Aspire 5551 review

The 15.6-inch Aspire 5551 isn't the most portable laptop in the world, since it's a fairly chunky beast and its battery life isn't great. But our configuration made up for that by offering speedy performance, courtesy of its triple-core AMD processor, at a reasonable price Read more

Acer Aspire 5745DG review

The 15.6-inch Acer Aspire 5745DG laptop offers an affordable way of getting into 3D gaming. A Blu-ray drive and faster graphics chip would be welcome though, helping you to take advantage of more 3D content. Read more

Samsung RF710 review

The 17.3-inch Samsung RF710-S03UK looks okay and offers decent performance for your cash. But, while it's a good all-rounder, we've seen other laptops perform better for less money. Read more

Sony Vaio E series (VPCEA3S1E) review

The Sony Vaio EA3S1E is a great looking laptop that's comfortable to use and has a speedy processor. It's only let down by its weak battery life and sub-par gaming performance. Read more

MSI GT640 review

The 15.4-inch GT640's desktop wallpaper proclaims that it's the fastest quad-core laptop in the world. That's wishful thinking, but this machine is certainly capable of satisfying even the most demanding user. It's also cheaper than many of its rivals, so, if you can stomach its appearance, it's worth a look Read more

Acer Aspire 5552 review

The 15.6-inch Acer Aspire 5552 is one of the cheapest laptops around, so its relatively decent performance and sturdy construction come as a very pleasant surprise. Read more

Samsung X420 review

An ultraportable laptop that boasts impressive battery life, a 14-inch screen and a delightfully lightweight frame, the Samsung X420 has much to recommend it. But with high-end netbooks proving more and more compelling, does it do enough to justify its price? Read more

Toshiba Portege R830 review

Our version of the Toshiba Portege R830, the R830-138, offers great performance and some smashing features, such as integrated mobile broadband. There's no denying that it's very expensive for a 13-inch laptop, though. Read more
