Vaio CS series

Sony's fashion-conscious CS series offers a range of bright colours and an LED panel that lights up when you stroke the cover.

The Asus U2E is a fantastic laptop. It's far slower than rivals such as the Sony Vaio TZ series or MacBook Air, but it's stylish, feature-rich and in many ways more desirable than many of the alternatives.

Reviews

HP Compaq 2710p

HP's attractive Compaq 2710p convertible tablet suffers from one fatal flaw, choosing a ThinkPad-style pointing stick over a touchpad.
ASUS U1F

The ASUS U1 is one of the best ultraportable laptops available today, and more than powerful enough for Web browsing and office tasks -- just don't expect it to run 3D games
Sony VAIO VGNG118GNB

Sony's latest business-centric Vaio is a wonder of sturdy construction, ultra light portability and enticing design. At the same time, it's not exactly an inexpensive number-crunching beast.
Sony VAIO VGN-C13

Attractive, powerful and reasonably priced, the Sony VAIO VGN-C13 is a smart choice if you're in the market for a thin-and-light laptop.
Dell XPS M1210

Upgraded to Windows Vista, the Dell XPS M1210 is a pricey but powerful system for those who want a smaller laptop with few compromises.
Samsung Q30 Plus

The Samsung Q30 Plus's superb battery life and light chassis make it a highly attractive ultra-portable, despite questionable performance scores.
Acer TravelMate 3010

Acer's cheap and cheerful thin-and-light feels more like a high-end offering thanks to its stellar performance and battery life.
Fujitsu LifeBook P7120

For users who are unwilling to sacrifice features and yet demand a diminutive notebook, the Fujitsu LifeBook P7120 fits the bill perfectly.
