Samsung N110 review

Editors:

4.0 stars out of 5

3.5000 stars out of 5

Samsung N110 review

One of Samsung's confusing brood of similar-sounding netbooks, the N110 has a good keyboard and an excellent trackpad. While not as thin as something like the HP Mini 1000, Samsung gets points for making a netbook with a long-life, six-cell battery that doesn't look like it has a kickstand Read more

Asus U2E review

Like its predecessor, the Asus U2E is unashamedly sexy -- it's finished in leather, after all. Available in black or mocha brown, this ultraportable is updated with a built-in DVD rewriter and plenty of memory. It also boasts a fingerprint reader to keep your documents safe Read more

Advent 4213 review

The 4213 is an admirable second stab at the netbook format by Advent. There's not a great deal of difference between the 4213 and the rest of the netbook pack, but decent storage and battery life, a 10-inch screen and integrated 3G Web access mean this netbook can more than hold its own Read more

Samsung X120 review

The 11.6-inch X120 is our favourite ultra-portable laptop with an ultra-low-voltage processor so far. Its battery life isn't its strongest feature, but it's an ideal size, it has a well-judged specification, and its price tag is very tempting. Its low-key design is also very appealing Read more

Eee PC 1005HA Seashell review

Its performance is typical of a netbook, but Asus has found other ways to make the Eee PC 1005HA Seashell stand out from the crowd. While the 1005HA sports a good keyboard and an appealing design, the real star of the show is its fantastic battery life Read more

Eee PC 1005PE review

The 10.1-inch Eee PC 1005PE is the first netbook we've seen with Intel's next-gen Atom N450 CPU. This chip doesn't offer a massive performance boost over previous Atom offerings, but it does contribute to this system's excellent battery life, and the 1005PE is a handsome machine to boot Read more

Asus Eee PC 701 review

The Asus Eee PC 701 is one of the smallest laptops on the market. It's small enough to be mistaken for a hardback book, but despite its dimensions, it doesn't sacrifice performance. With a solid state hard drive and operating a Linux-based graphical user interface, it's the definition of an ultraportable Read more

Eee PC 1201N Seashell review

Thanks to its dual-core Atom processor and Nvidia Ion graphics chip, the 12.1-inch Eee PC 1201N Seashell offers among the best performance you'll find from a netbook. Its battery life isn't much cop by today's netbook standards, but this machine is well worth a look, especially if you fancy a spot of light gaming Read more

Eee PC 1005P review

The Eee PC 1005P is almost identical to the Eee PC 1005PE, but has a smaller hard drive and costs slightly less. Its next-generation Intel Atom N450 CPU doesn't provide a big performance improvement over its netbook predecessors, but its battery life is corking and it looks good too Read more

Eee PC 1008HA Seashell review

Such is the beauty of the Eee PC 1008HA Seashell that it makes other netbooks look like they were cobbled together by blind goat herders. One of the thinnest and lightest netbooks on the market, it also boasts a truly excellent keyboard. We wish the battery was user-replaceable though Read more
