Mesh Edge15 Gamer CS review Despite a uninspiring case and an imperfect keyboard, the Edge15's performance makes it a superb deal for mobile gamers on a budget.£699 -
Acer Aspire 5739G review An expensive, but otherwise good all-round laptop. The 5739G has great build quality, a funky design and even a decent set of speakers.£672 -
Acer Aspire Timeline AS1810TZ-413G25N review Acer's Aspire Timeline is a great ultraportable laptop – it's small, lightweight, has a comfortable keyboard and long battery life.£429 -
Sony Vaio VPC-EB1S0E/WI review A gorgeous design and a fast, new processor make the EB1S0E stand out, but the screen isn't as good as it could be.£614 -
Novatech V13 review If you can put up with its flaws, Novatech's V13 is a decent budget ultra-portable laptop but better-designed, better-value models are available.£480 -
Mesh Edge17 Inspire CS review Poor build quality and a stingy helping of RAM undermine the Edge17's advantage in having a slightly larger screen, and the screen itself is patchy and dark.£499 -
ViewSonic ViewBook Pro review Viewsonic's ViewBook Pro has a good quality display and an ExpressCard slot, but its flawed touchpad and relatively short battery life count against it.£679 -
Dell Inspiron 11z review Dell's Inspiron 11z is good value, but some poor design choices means it just misses out on an award.£439 -

Samsung R620 review Along with Samsung's great design and build quality, the R620 includes a Blu-ray drive – that's a great bargain£645 -
MSI XSlim X600-214UK review MSI's X600 is a light and relatively powerful laptop, but its battery life is comparatively short and it has a mediocre screen and keyboard.£799 -
HP Pavillion dv7-3020ea review A classy, powerful laptop with a Blu-ray player and a large screen, it's let down by the poor backlight which results in dull colours.£1000 -
Acer Aspire One 532h review The Acer Aspire One 532h is a decent netbook in isolation and has a pretty good screen, but it's too expensive and is outperformed by cheaper alternatives.£291 -
Asus Eee PC 1005PE review The 1005PE's new Atom N450 processor is certainly a clever bit of engineering, but gives no real benefit here compared to the previous generation of processors.£264
