Lenovo B550 review

The 15.6-inch Lenovo B550 laptop has an attractively low price, but its specification is basic and its design uninspiring. Read more

As long as you don't go crazy with the customisation options, the Dell XPS 15 will prove a relatively affordable and powerful laptop with a great display. But it's big, bulky and has a few design quirks that keep it from being great. Read more

HP TouchSmart tm2-1010ea review

The 12.1-inch TouchSmart tm2-1010ea has two tricks up its sleeve. It can be used either as a standard laptop or you can swivel its touchscreen around and use it as a tablet PC. It works better as a laptop than a tablet, but it's worth a look if you're after a convertible machine Read more

HP Compaq 6735s review

Whether its sober design will appeal depends on your tastes, but there's no denying that the 15.4-inch Compaq 6735s is a well-built machine. Its full-size keyboard is comfortable to type on, the matte finish on the screen means it's legible in all lighting conditions, and it's a capable performer too Read more

Fujitsu Siemens Amilo Li 2727 review

The new school year is rolling around and no doubt the kids are pestering you with relentless demands for the latest Sony Vaio. But the Fujitsu Siemens Amilo Li 2727 offers all the features and performance to satisfy their back-to-school needs, for only £275. It might not be glamorous, but it'll do the job Read more

Acer Aspire 3694WLMi review

The budget Acer Aspire 3694WLMi laptop holds its own in the performance stakes and its 15.4-inch glossy screen offers better colour reproduction than most. It's also well connected with four USB ports and a card reader makes it easy to transfer snaps from your camera Read more

Toshiba Satellite L300 review

Toshiba has a strong reputation for being able to put together budget laptops that have the look and feel of more expensive machines. The L300 has a rock-bottom price tag of just £390, so we were intrigued to see whether Toshiba had managed once again to avoid the usual pitfalls of budget machines Read more

Apple MacBook Pro (1.83GHz) review

Apple's first new laptop since the company switched to Intel processors, the 15.4-inch MacBook Pro ushers in a new era of Apple computing. While this gives Apple the potential to match the performance of Windows-based machines, the first MacBook Pro shows signs of the growing pains Apple faces in switching to the new platform Read more
