Office Notebook for Occasional Gaming? Lenovo has built a quiet office notebook on the AMD Trinity platform, which, supposedly, delivers decent gameplay for the latest games. So is the laptop worth its price tag of 479 Euros (~$620)? Where does it stand in terms of performance? The following review will answer those questions in detail.

Elegant and high-end despite an entry-level price? Has Sony succeeded in creating a better compromise than the competition with its low-priced ultrabook? Will the screen and keyboard ergonomics make work both pleasant and efficient?

More power! Having already taken a close look at the cheap US version of the ThinkPad T430s, we now turn to the high end configuration with a Core i7 processor and a 180 GB SSD. Can Lenovo justify a price of over 1700 Euros (~$2200) for its business athlete?

And it keeps going and going... The 13.3-inch LifeBook S792 is targeted towards mobile professionals who need a light and mobile notebook - but don't want to sacrifice computing power and battery life. Find out in our review if the LifeBook S792 fits the bill.

Virtually an ultrabook. Members of the slim and affordable IdeaPad S400 range are tempting to customers who are interested in an ultrabook, but do not want to pay the demanded price. Our test reveals whether Lenovo's 14-inch laptop is successful.

Affordably good. Samsung's Series 5 13-inch laptops do not only feature frequently used Intel components, but also alternative equipment from AMD. Despite the low price, AMD's combination might even reap in a few advantages for itself. We scrutinized whether this is the case.

Crossfire Power? Compact design with no loss, with entertainment and performance: that is how the HP Pavilion m6-1050sg is described on the HP website. The AMD quad-core A10-4600M APU with the Radeon HD 7660G + 7670M dual graphics card is supposed to provide the performance needed. Are there really no losses?

Facelift. Under the name 900X3C-A04DE Samsung offers the well-known 13.3-inch Premium Subnotebook with fresh hardware from Intel. In addition to the matte display with a resolution of 1600x900 pixels, an Intel Core i7-3517U dual-core processor, 4 GB of RAM, and a 256 GB SSD will be offered. Prices start from around 1500 Euros (~$1940).

Good and cheap. We are testing one of the lowest priced members from Lenovo's IdeaPad N581 series with the IdeaPad N581-MBA4YGE. The laptop costs around 400 Euros (~$518), sports a dual-core Pentium processor and relies on Window 7 as the operating system. Our test will show whether the device is worth its money.

AMD ThinkPad. A ThinkPad for little money always sounds like hitting a home run. We looked at the AMD version of Lenovo's successful mini and found advantages over the Intel counterpart.
