Sony Vaio CW series (VPCCW1S1E) review
The 14-inch Vaio VPCCW1S1E is an excellent entertainment laptop. It looks stylish, its screen handles movies well, and, as usual with Sony machines, its keyboard is very good. It's no slouch in the performance stakes either, offering enough power to satisfy all but the most demanding gamer Read more

Samsung R510 review
Whether you're after a work or a leisure laptop, with a 15.4-inch screen and fairly impressive performance, the stylish and affordable R510 is well worth investigating. It also benefits from a sizeable, comfortable keyboard with an anti-bacterial coating, although we expected to see more USB ports Read more

Toshiba Satellite L775 review
Gaming isn't the forte of our version of the Toshiba Satellite L775, the L775-119. In most other areas, though, this is a fine 17.3-inch laptop, offering a great screen, comfortable keyboard and speedy performance. Read more

Toshiba Tecra A5 review
There's nothing wrong with the mainstream Toshiba Tecra A5 laptop. It offers a fairly light though largely nondescript case, lots of unremarkable components, such as a Celeron M processor and a DVD-ROM/CD-RW drive, average performance and battery life, and a decent price of £660 Read more

MSI FX600 review
Beneath the 15.6-inch MSI FX600's unassuming exterior lies a surprisingly powerful and affordable multimedia laptop. Read more

Lenovo ThinkPad Edge review
If you're after a thin laptop with built-in business software that you won't be ashamed to be seen with out of hours, the 13.3-inch ThinkPad Edge is a decent choice at an affordable price. The lack of an optical drive is annoying, but the keyboard, touchpad and screen are very good Read more

Acer Aspire Timeline 3810T review
The 13.3-inch Aspire Timeline 3810T boasts a slim, attractive design and a lightweight body, although we'd like to see an optical drive included. Compared to other slim 12- and 13-inch laptops, it also offers decent performance, but it's the extra-long battery life that really makes this machine stand out Read more

Acer Aspire 5553G review
The 15.6-inch Aspire 5553G laptop is about as visually exciting as a roof tile, but Acer's baked some pretty tasty components into this rather affordable pie. Chief among them is a quad-core AMD processor that delivers impressive performance Read more

Acer Aspire 7720 review
The Acer Aspire 7720 is a hunking brute of a laptop, with great performance and number-crunching abilities. Added to this, the powerful machine has a large widescreen display, plenty of useful shortcut buttons and enough ports and connectors to rival a desktop machine 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
