Sony Vaio VGN-AR11S review

Sony Vaio VGN-AR11S review

Sony's Vaio VGN-AR11S is the first laptop to use an integrated Blu-ray drive. It's also the first laptop we've seen that uses a 1080i-capable display with HDCP decoding capability, giving it full high-definition readiness. It uses a fast processor and features a pair of 100GB hard drives, making it a good all-rounder Read more

Asus N73Jn review

The Asus N73Jn's speakers aren't as impressive as we'd hoped, but make no mistake, this 17.3-inch laptop is a fabulous all-round machine. Read more

Sony Vaio S5VP review

Featuring the Intel 915GM chipset and the latest iteration of Centrino, the S5VP is ideal for those who want a truly portable laptop that can still deliver strong performance. It's not perfect, though -- it runs hot, it's occasionally noisy and it's pricey Read more

Toshiba Qosmio X500 (X500-128) review

The 18.4-inch Qosmio X500-128 is as fast as it is big -- and it's pretty flippin' big. Its outpaced by the very fastest gaming rigs, but not by much, so, if you're looking for laptop with an enormous screen and high-speed graphics, you should think seriously about adding it to your shopping list Read more

Asus A7Tc review

Asus' A7Tc is the first product we've seen that makes full use of a Turion 64 X2 Mobile processor, in this case it's the 2GHz TL-60 chip. This component means double the processing power, allowing the laptop to handle a greater load and run many programs simultaneously. It's certainly not a looker, though Read more

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 9802WKMi review

It's too large to be considered a traditional laptop, and it lacks the upgradeability of a desktop PC. However, like the well-received M2010, the Aspire 9802WKMi does have a place. It should appeal to users who want a Media Center computer with a large screen, plenty of power and moderate portability Read more

Asus A7J review

Multimedia enthusiasts will love the A7J's Media Center operating system, with its incorporated Freeview tuner, as well as its solid performance, and its gaming abilities should appeal to FPS fans. While it excels in most areas, potential buyers should beware of models with the paltry 60GB hard drive we saw Read more

Fujitsu Siemens LifeBook S6420 review

The S6420 is an ultraportable laptop designed for the mobile professional. It's light, relatively small, and best of all, it has a built-in 3G modem so you can go online almost anywhere. This £1,000 laptop has substantial security capabilities and an 'Eco Mode' to boot, so it could be the right one for you Read more
