  • Mesh Edge17 Inspire CS
    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.

  • ViewSonic ViewBook Pro
    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.

    Samsung R620 review Along with Samsung's great design and build quality, the R620 includes a Blu-ray drive – that's a great bargain

  • MSI XSlim X600-214UK
    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.

  • HP Pavillion dv7-3020ea
    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.

  • Acer Aspire One 532h
    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.

  • Asus Eee PC 1005PE
    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.

  • Toshiba Satellite L500-19Z
    Toshiba Satellite L500-19Z review The L500's screen is impressive and the numeric keypad's large keys would suit number-crunchers, but there are better value alternatives.

  • Advent Verona ultra-portable laptop
    Advent Verona review Advent's Verona is very cheap for an ultra-portable laptop, but it's also one to avoid for its poor-quality keyboard and short battery life.

  • Sony Vaio CW1S1E/L laptop
    Sony Vaio CW1S1E/L review The CW1S1E/L is a great-looking laptop, but it doesn't do enough to stand out at this price.

  • Sony Vaio NW20EF/S
    Sony Vaio NW20EF/S review Sony's design and build quality is unquestionable, but a weak processor and a dull display make the NW20 less of a great deal

  • Samsung X520
    Samsung X520 review Samsung's X520 is a bit heavier than we'd like, but its great battery life, comfortable keyboard and large hard disk make it a great choice if you want a comparatively light laptop with a large screen.
