| Review summary | The Asus Eee PC 900 is a likeable update to the Eee PC 701. We're disappointed its keyboard is still so difficult to use, but the addition of a larger, high-resolution screen, multi-touch mouse trackpad and better storage gives it the edge over just about all of its rivals Read full review |
The S6F is an almost-perfect combination of style and substance. Its distinctive leather finish, small form factor and long battery life make it a joy to take on the road, and its powerful components allow it to keep up with the fastest of PCs. It's also tremendous value for money Read full review |
Ridiculously pricey, but the VGNTZ11XN/B.CEK is a stunning example of what an ultra-portable laptop should be. It has good battery life, it's highly portable and it's packed with features Read full review |
If you have the money, you shouldn't hesitate to buy the TT, in any of its guises. It looks phenomenal, is comfortable to use and is exceptionally portable Read full review |

Samsung R520
Not a bad budget laptop, but the bigger R720 is a much better option if portability isn't a prime concern
Acer Aspire One Pro 531
Its good battery life is a plus, but there are other netbooks with longer-lasting batteries and better keyboards
Toshiba Satellite A500
Despite its low-resolution screen, it's a very good all-rounder at a decent price
