| Review summary | We have to admire the HP Pavilion tx2050ea for its flexibility. With a screen that can be rotated into tablet mode, its ideal for use in cramped spaces or when you have to stand up. We also like the relatively low price, but the tx2050ea's performance is lacklustre and the screen is far too reflective for our tastes Read full review |
The Toshiba Portege M200's successful combination of notebook performance and tablet functionality make it one of the best on the market, despite its mediocre speed Read full review |
Fujitsu Siemens' top-of-the-range slate-style Tablet PC packs in plenty of features and is generally well designed. But it's pricey, runs hot and could prove too bulky and heavy for extended mobile use Read full review |
If you need a rugged tablet PC that can do a full day's work in the field, Motion's widescreen J3400 will prove a very satisfactory choice, although it's not the lightest tablet we've seen, and you can rack up a big price tag if you pile on the options Read full review |

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
