Asus HP-100U Dolby Headphone Set

Gamers with a penchant for very loud explosions will like the HP-100U, but those who want distinct audio levels will want to listen elsewhere.

Asus UL50Vt

It doesn't quite live up to its own battery hype, otherwise Asus' thin and light laptop is pretty good.

Reviews

  • Asus O!Play HDP-R1 Media Player

    The O!Play might have a silly name, but this is one seriously good media streaming solution, as long as you don't need Windows streaming.

  • Dell Adamo XPS

    Dell's Adamo brand of notebooks emphasise design as well as mobility, and its latest offering seems to have an abundance of both. But will breaking tradition help the Adamo XPS trump the MacBook Air?

  • Asus K50AB

    The K50AB is a typical mid-range laptop that looks good, but the in-built GPU-switching feature doesn't save on battery at all. We'd suggest looking elsewhere for your mid-range needs.

  • Asus Lamborghini VX5

    Asus' Lamborghini VX5 is a luxury laptop, with a luxury price to match — thankfully justified by the quality of the laptop and package. If you've got a wad of cash burning in your pocket, and don't mind a little luxury, the VX5 might be for you.

  • Asus Designo MS246H

    The MS246H works well if you're trying to reach a certain design aesthetic — just be aware that with this aesthetic comes a lack of adjustability options and frustrating menu buttons.

  • Sony Vaio W

    Attempting to create a premium-priced version of a netbook, Sony has added an HD display to the Vaio W. It's an attractive step-up package, but the internal components are the same as are in cheaper models.

  • Asus M60J

    Core i7 is here in mobile form. Some vendors will be attempting to rush these laptops out as close to the Windows 7 launch as possible. Keep an eye out — looks like the season to upgrade is well and truly upon us.

  • Asus RT-N16 Wireless Router

    Asus' high-end wireless router has plenty of throughput grunt, but we do wish the company would offer better support documentation.

Features

  • Most beautiful monitors

    Monitors have a tendency to be fairly plain objects, but every now and then a vendor goes out of its way to bring design to the fore.

  • Netbooks: Mini laptops, max portability

    Netbooks are excellent secondary laptops, or if you're always on the road and need portability but not necessarily performance. We round-up the best we've seen so far.

  • MacBook Pro vs. the PC competition

    Mac or PC? The war rages on. We've thrown the most recent 13-inch MacBook Pro and the closest PC to a Mac we've seen, the Asus U80V, into the ring for an all out brawl.

  • Six things we'd like to see in future netbooks

    Small and cheap not good enough for you? We start the list of things that would make buying a netbook even more enticing.
