Eclipse Matrix A255R487 review The A255R487 has a good specification, but its monitor is mediocre and its flimsy case should be avoided.

Arbico Value 9650XL review This quiet, well-built PC has a decent 19in monitor, but it's underpowered and is overpriced.

CCL CCL-CS1009 review Despite the mediocre monitor, this PC packs in a lot of power for a low price.

Dell Studio XPS 16 review Dell's Studio XPS 16 looks attractive and has some desirable features, but its spongy keyboard is a disappointment.

Mesh Edge 15 M870R CS review Mesh's Edge 15 has great performance, and the Blu-ray drive is great for entertainment. It's fantastic value and wins our Best Buy award.

Lenovo ThinkPad R500 review Lenovo's ThinkPad R500 has surprisingly long battery life, but it otherwise failed to live up to our expectations, and is also expensive.

Toshiba Satellite L550-113 review An impressive laptop with a high-resolution screen, comfortable keyboard and good 3D performance, but battery life isn't great.

Mesh Edge 17 M870CL CS review Mesh's Edge 17 is an attractive laptop, but others here have better battery life, faster 3D performance and more responsive keyboards.

HP Pavilion dv6-1240sa review HP's Pavilion dv6 isn't a bad laptop, but the tough competition means that you can get a better laptop for less money.

Dell Studio 15 review Dell's Studio 15 is an excellent choice if you need a laptop powerful enough for gaming that also has a good battery life.

Toshiba Satellite L500-11V review A comfortable laptop to use, but the screen looks slightly washed out and is disappointing, particularly at this price.

Samsung R520 review A stunning laptop for the price, Samsung's R520 has everything you need. If you're on a tight budget, this is the model to buy.

Panasonic Viera TX-P42G10B review Fantastic image quality and the benefit of Freesat make this a great choice if you're after a 42in HD TV.
