Notebook Sony - Vaio S Series VPCS13V9E/B |

Sony makes some great laptop computers. Nicely designed, with good features and really comfortable to use. But they come at a price - and the Vaio S is a prime example. The newly refreshed model comes in a number of variants. The model we're reviewing sits at the higher end of the range, costing over £1,000 inc. VAT.
A look at the specs
The Vaio's 13.3in screen might lead you to believe this is a small and light notebook. In fact, it weighs 2kg and measures 329x229x28mm (wdh). That makes it fairly chunky, given the screen size - though at least Sony has managed to build in an optical drive, something you don't always get with this small screen size, and the keyboard is nicely sized.
In fact, the laptop's weight is in part due to the aluminum used in its chassis. This actually makes it quite sturdy, albeit with a fair amount of flex in the lid.

What it's like
The Vaio's keyboard is a pleasure to use. The chiclet-style keys are well separated from each other and feel wonderful under the fingers. Touch typists will whizz along. Our only gripe with the keyboard is not with the keys themselves but with their backlight. This is fine if you're sitting at a desk, but if you're lounging on a sofa, or otherwise not very upright, the backlighting bleeds out around the keys and can be very bright and off-putting.
We aren't so delighted about the screen which is very, very reflective. One of the most reflective we've seen recently, in fact. Still, its 1366x768-pixel resolution delivers video superbly, and viewing angles are good. An ambient light sensor allows automatic brightness adjustment which is a nice tweak, too.
It's also nice to see a fingerprint sensor that can be used to help with login security, and a webcam means you can do a bit of video calling to friends and relations in foreign parts.
Choosing your model
We said there are lots of different variants of the Vaio S series. Our review sample was equipped with an Intel Core i5 processor and 6GB of RAM - a generous allocation that really helped to boost the PC's speed. The Nvidia GeForce 310M chipset handles graphics well, though if you go lower down the price range you get an Intel integrated graphics chipset instead.
Our review sample came with integrated 3G support as well as Wi-Fi, Ethernet and Bluetooth. A 500GB hard drive provides for plenty of storage, and there is shock protection which is nice to see. The optical drive at the right-hand side of the chassis has its release catch on the front edge which is unusual, but not a big problem.
Other features
The Vaio S series offers plenty of connectivity options, with three USB ports, ExpressCard slot, i.Link connector, HDMI and VGA ports, headphones and microphone connectors, plus separate SD and Memory Stick slots.
The battery gave us two and a half hours of video playback, indicating that you may get half a day's life out of it away from the mains, but not much more.

Sony - Vaio S Series VPCS13V9E/B features - Verdict

The Vaio S doesn't really do enough to stand out from the crowd. It has a great keyboard and super screen for video (though this is highly reflective), solid build and fast performance - but battery life is not brilliant and at more than £1,000 it's relatively expensive.

Notebook Panasonic - Toughbook CF-C1 |

Computer fashions are fickle, like clothing. Remember when owning a PDA was the height of cool, followed by mini-notebooks and netbooks? Now suddenly we're in the age of the tablet, when you're no-one if you don't have an iPad or Galaxy Tab. Also, if you're really hard, you have to make your digital camera or laptop rugged so you can take it down ski-slopes or into war zones.
Panasonic understands all that, but equally recognises that users also want a special something that will turn heads. That's why the Toughbook CF-C1, as well as ticking all the rugged boxes, can transform itself with one swift movement from notebook to tablet.
Tough contender
Technically the Toughbook CF-C1 falls into Panasonic's 'Business Ruggedized' range, which means it shares many of the protective features of its big brothers like the CF-19 and the CF-31. But it's clearly meant to be travelling to the boardroom or suburban clinic rather than a war-room or field hospital. So it comes with the trademark magnesium alloy casing and measures a chunky 299x227x31mm - yet despite this, it weighs a surprisingly lightweight 1.69kg when fully loaded with dual battery packs.

Like its sibling the CF-F9, the CF-C1 can withstand a fall of 76cm and pressure of 100-kgf with no harm to case, keyboard or hard drive. Both models also share an inset full-size keyboard that can drain away up to 200ml of water spilt all over it with no adverse after-effects.
Quick change
But the real magic of the CF-C1 comes when you flip a safety catch, rotate the 12.1in LCD screen and drop it into place on the base. Hey presto! You have a tablet PC complete with a separate set of control buttons and optional use of the supplied stylus.
A fixed strap at the back allows you to hold with one hand while you make notes with the other - perfect for field trips and medical notes, and so on. Versions are available with either capacitive and (gloved) resistive multi-touch screens, complete with all the usual pinch, zoom and rotation functions.
Mobile features
The dual battery packs we mentioned earlier will prove invaluable for workers who need to keep their computer working continuously. They offer a combined battery life of around 10 hours, and one can be hot-swapped while the other is still operating.
The CF-C1 also comes with a range of connectivity options, with Ethernet, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and mobile broadband plus three USB 2.0 slots (perhaps we can have USB 3.0 next time guys?), VGA and a PC Card Slot. Unlike the CF-F9, there's no built-in optical drive - and, peculiarly enough, no webcam included as standard (though it can be requested as an option, together with a smart card reader and a fingerprint reader).
Core specification
At the heart of the CF-C1 is a powerful Intel Core i5-520M vPro processor clocked at 2.4GHz, backed up by 2GB DDR3 SDRAM - a more than sufficient combination for most multi-tasking operations. Unfortunately, there's only a basic Intel HD Media graphics card with 763MB dedicated RAM, and the native resolution of the LCD screen is just 1280x800, rather than the CF-F9's 1440x900 - but it's certainly bright enough for ordinary usage, and the removable HDD has a healthy 250GB storage capacity.

Panasonic - Toughbook CF-C1 features - Verdict

It's very pricey, but the Panasonic Toughbook CF-C1 is the ideal mobile PC companion for those who need its specialised features - balancing ruggedness with lightness and offering the advantages of both notebooks and tablet PCs with near-continuous battery life.

Notebook Samsung - NF110 |

10.1in netbooks have enjoyed an increase in popularity over the last couple of months, mostly due to their size, price and improving performance. Last week, we took a look at the Acer Aspire One D255. Now it's Samsung's turn in the spotlight, after the company has joined the bandwagon with no fewer than nine 10.1in machines, including the new NF210 and NF110 - the latter of which we're putting to the test.
The NF110 comes in a simple two-tone design - black lid, white interior - with a thin burgundy strip running around the dividing edge to add an extra level of sophistication. Despite its slim dimensions (265x189x29mm) and ultra-portable weight (just 1.28kg), it feels sturdily built. Those who like a bit of style in their PC will appreciate the wave pattern that rises in a smooth crescendo to either side of the keyboard.
The ‘island' keyboard itself lies in its own sunken bay within the base, and is the familiar 93% chiclet model with large separated keys that are firm and smooth to operate. The touch pad is similarly ‘sunken' - thus kicking one common trend that likes to make touchpad boundaries invisible - and responds well to two-finger Windows 7 controls. Although the mouse bar is made in a single piece, it has a groove in the middle to demarcate between left and right buttons, and the rocker feels comfortable when working.

Most of the NF110's other exterior features are standard for this class of netbook: 3 USB ports, VGA and Ethernet connections, headphone and mic sockets, plus a 4-in-1 memory card slot for SD, SDHC, SDXC and MMC formats. The resolution of the 10.1in display is also the current favourite of 1024x600, with an energy-efficient LED backlight that's more than sufficient for most users' needs.
In many respects the NF110 is indistinguishable from its big sister the NF210, apart from the power of the CPU - the NF110 carries an Intel Atom N455 clocked at 1.66GHz, while the NF210 has the more punchy dual-core N550 clocked at 1.50GHz. Both models share the same Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 3150 graphics card, 250GB S-ATA hard disk and rather limited allocation of 1GB RAM.
Given these relatively meagre resources, though, the NF110's overall performance is surprisingly impressive. Multitasking with documents, internet and Windows Media Player running simultaneously provided no problems at all, and watching movies on BBC iPlayer revealed good colour contrast and sharpness with barely a hint of juddering. The quality of the NF110's surround sound was also beefier than usual for a netbook, and the demo racing games that came with the machine created a respectably frenzied atmosphere.
The other area in which the NF110 scores heavily over the rival Acer Aspire One D255 is in its battery life - we managed a minimum of six hours at heavy usage, compared to only four hours on the Acer.

Samsung - NF110 features - Verdict

The Samsung NF110 is a stylish, sturdy netbook with an admirable keyboard and especially good multitasking performance. Although it would benefit from double the RAM, its sound and picture quality and battery longevity make it preferable to some of its more powerful rivals.

Notebook Fujitsu - Lifebook P701 |

Fujitsu's P701 is small format laptop computer designed primarily for business users. You won't find much whizz-bang flashiness about it. Our sample wasn't quite the final build, but from what we saw, this is an impressive little laptop.
Petite performer
With a 12.1in screen, dimensions of 282x220x33mm and weighing in at just 1.5kg, the Fujitsu P701 isn't that far away from being the size of a netbook. Still, it's just far enough away to let you know you're using a 'proper' computer rather than a toy.
And indeed you are. The 1,200x800-pixel resolution of the screen might be a shade below par, but under the hood there's an Intel Core i3 2310M 2.1GHz processor and 2GB of RAM in support. You can cram the 320GB hard drive full of apps and data - and the operating system, Windows 7 Professional 64-bit, is a far cry from a netbook specification.
Other features
A fingerprint sensor is more evidence that this is a 'serious' laptop - but all isn't totally rosy. There's no optical drive built in to the chassis, so, just as if you were using a netbook, you'll have to attach one via one of the three USB ports that sit around the edges.

There are plenty of other connectors, however. There's a 34mm ExpressCard slot, DisplayPort adaptor, microphone and headphones jacks, VGA-out port, memory card slot for SD, Memory Stick and compatible cards, a SmartCard slot, and an Ethernet port. For those occasions when you need to disable Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, there's a slider to do so on the front edge of the chassis.
The most interesting feature of the Fujitsu P701 is a small circle that sits to the right of the trackpad. It is the ScrollWheel. You run a finger round it for vertical scrolling. It works, but it is an odd convention, isn't it - to use a circular motion for vertical scrolling? And other laptop manufacturers are quite happy with scroll zones in the trackpad.
Too small for comfort?
Needless to say, but the keyboard is a little cramped on such a small notebook. If you have large hands you might find it a challenge to work at full speed. But the design is good, and the somewhat bloated Enter key is particularly welcome.
As we were working with a prototype we weren't able to fully test the battery, but it didn't seem inordinately poor, so we've no reason to think it will have trouble seeing you through a few solid hours of computing.

Fujitsu - Lifebook P701 features - Verdict

The Fujitsu Lifebook P701 is small and nicely made. We'd have liked a higher screen resolution and could live without the ScrollWheel - but overall, if you need something very portable, it could suit.
BEST POINT: Good performance for a very compact notebook.
WORST POINT: Keyboard a little cramped; limited 1,200x800 native screen resolution.

Notebook HP - Envy 17 3D |

After Avatar kickstarted the current craze for 3D movies and games, it was almost inevitable that HP would devise something to rival NVIDIA's 3D Vision technology. And the laptop computer they've chosen to showcase their 3D alternative is the HP Envy 17 3D.
Two words immediately sprang to mind when we first laid eyes on the HP Envy 17 3D laptop: "classy" and "massive".
Let's start with the "massive" aspect. We're talking about a whopping 17.3in monster, measuring 275x416x387mm, and weighing a hefty 3.41kg.
Heavyweight perrformance
‘Desktop replacement' is a term often bandied about with cavalier abandon - but the expression could have been coined especially for the Envy 17 3D. It will only just fit inside an executive briefcase, and is certainly not the kind of thing to be tossed casually into a rucksack.
Yet at the same time, the Envy 3D is sleek and sexy. Its solid chassis is made from its subtly patterned silver aluminium, and bears a backlit HP logo on the corner of the lid. Inside it has a deliberately minimalist look, with a single slender silver power button on the expansive work surface, and both the keyboard and (surprisingly less user-friendly than it should be) touchpad jet black and subtly recessed.

The Envy 17 3D is a thing of beauty, with carefully understated white backlights under the keyboard (the sturdy chiclet variety so beloved of the latest generation of notebooks, which comes with a complete number pad).
Bristling with ports
As you'd expect from a high-end laptop, the Envy 17 3D bristles with ports, including VGA, HDMI, one USB 3.0, 3 USB 2, eSATA, Ethernet, a 5-in-1 memory card slot and a mini-display port - in other words, everything a high-powered business executive (or an avid gamer) might desire.
Under the bonnet lurks an Intel Core i7-720QM CPU clocked at 1.6 GHz with 6 GB DDR3 RAM. Decent as the 500GB SATA hard drive is, we were slightly disappointed HP couldn't stretch to a 1TB model. Graphics are supplied by an ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5850 chipset with 1GB of built-in memory.
Total entertainment
Naturally, that '3D' tag betrays the ultimate aim of this machine - not just to look chic and perform plenty of multitasking (both of which it fulfils in spades), but to be an entertainment machine. Hence the inclusion of a Blu-ray optical drive and with a Full HD (1920x1080) native resolution 3D Ultra BrightView Infinity display that fairly leaps out at you, it's so vibrant. Colour photos in particular are so rich you almost need shades to view them, and 2D videos really come alive.
Audio on this machine is superb by the standards of regular notebooks, thanks to the Beats sound system with its integrated subwoofer.
As for the heart of the matter, the 3D operation, HP makes use of a similar active-shutter style of 3D glasses as the NVIDIA system. It comes into its own when watching Blu-ray 3D films - we tried it on the Shrek movies, and slime never looked so appetizing!
Gaming options
As far as games are concerned, only a handful of titles (including World of Warcraft and Modern Warfare 2) are compatible with the ATI technology, and the jury's still out about how much it improves gameplay - even though the depth of field is impressive.
One word of warning when playing conventional 2D FPS games on the Envy 17 3D, though - the base becomes almost scaldingly hot and if one of the air vents is covered, the game will crash out.
As you might expect, given the machine's powerful spec, battery life isn't brilliant - you'll be lucky to manage two hours from each charge - but this baby wasn't intended to be hauled about on rush-hour trains, so I doubt if that will prove significantly off-putting.

HP - Envy 17 3D features - Verdict

If this is your first foray into 3D laptops, then you'll need deep pockets and a strong back. The HP Envy 17 3D is a sleek, powerful heavyweight that brings out the best in 3D movies, but still has a bit of catching up to do on its NVIDIA gaming rival.
