Latest Laptop Reviews
Acer Aspire One D250 Android
Pretty average netbook, and the Android OS is more of a hindrance than a help
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
