| Review summary | The MSI X340 will earn you plenty of admiring glances, but you'll be giving it away once you've endured the rubbish battery life, poor keyboard and relatively unimpressive performance Read full review |
The Acer Timeline Aspire 4810T is an impressive thin and light laptop with amazing battery life. It may not be the speediest or best-looking laptop we've ever seen, but, for around £750, it's something of a steal nevertheless Read full review |
The M1330 is a great improvement on the XPS M1210. It looks nicer, uses more modern components and should make you the envy of your laptop-owning friends Read full review |
The Lamborghini VX1 isn't for everybody. It's more expensive than ordinary laptops, lacks the practicality of a widescreen display and has styling that will upset the faint-hearted. But these are criticisms that could just as easily describe the legendary cars with which it shares its name. Ultimately, the VX1 isn't as fast or as trendy as a real Lambo, but if you can stomach its looks and price tag, there's little here not to recommend 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
