Lenovo IdeaPad B570 review
The Lenovo B570 is a 15.6 inch laptop that, unlike the company’s renowned ThinkPad range, won’t blow a whale-sized hole in your wallet. It offers a full-sized keyboard, reliable computing and a surprisingly presentable design. But should you run out and spend your limited budget on it? What we like best The lid looks lovely [...]
Sony VPCJ12LOE/B All-in-One review
PCs these days have to compete on three fronts: netbooks, laptops and tablets all develop at the speed of light, with new processors and higher screen resolutions being developed almost every month. To stand their ground, all-in-one computers have to both reflect the demand for smaller devices and the appetite for ever-higher specs. We have [...]
Dell Precision M6600 review
An update to the mobile work station that was the Precision M6500, the Dell Precision M6600 offers improvements in a few areas and, overall, is a very impressive, if bulky, desktop replacement option. What we like most The Dell Precision M6600 has an LED-lit 17.3 inch HD display (the M6500’s display was 17 inch), so [...]
ASUS G73W laptop review
Modelled after a fighter jet, the ASUS G73W laptop is a pretty mean gaming machine. It is basically a slightly improved version of the ASUS G73JH, in terms of processing and graphics, but still weighs around a ton. What we like best One powerful feature of the ASUS G73W is its USB 3.0 “superspeed” port, [...]
ASUS R101 netbook review
The ASUS R101 is primarily aimed at first-time tablet users and students who want the convenience of a tablet without the often hefty price tag. As a result, it’s a more basic gadget than a lot of its competitors. What we like best The ASUS R101’s appearance is indicative of its contents – no frills [...]
ASUS Eee Pad Transformer tablet review
The ASUS Eee Pad Transformer is Asus latest foray into the tablet market, and it’s safe to say that it raises the bar for netbooks in terms of looks, feel and functionality What we like best Tablets are often dismissed by the average user as gimmicks – not as powerful as notebooks, but not as [...]
ASUS EeeBox 1012P
The Asus EeeBox 1012P represents the latest effort by Asus to provide a small-scale net-top computing option capable of playing back HD video content. It’s an unassuming and unobtrusive PC box with good processing power. What we like best The Asus EeeBox 1012P will fit onto even the most cluttered of work desks – it’s [...]
Acer Aspire M3910 review
This Acer Aspire desktop computer is well-equipped to provide your household with versatile and dependable computing. The Acer M3910 is a computer tower and thus comes without a keyboard, mouse or monitor. What we like most In today’s times of instant mobile computing, it’s easy to forget that sometimes the best option isn’t a small, [...]
Samsung R780 laptop review
Samsung take the game to Apple with the sweet-looking, wine red Samsung R780 laptop. It not only looks good but feels good, too, and its specs are consistently on the right side of average. Its low price might be the clincher for many users, but it’s no knock-off budget laptop. What we like best There’s [...]
Acer Aspire Ethos review
Almost a year ago to the day, Acer’s new Ethos range was unveiled. Its two flagship models, the Acer Aspire Ethos 8943G and the 5943G, are both blessed with improbably glossy design and beefed-up processing power, and differ mainly in size and storage. What we like best On the surface, these laptops seem to exist [...]
