Best Buys
The Which? Best Buy award is given to
products with high total test scores that perform consistently well in
our rigorous lab tests and excel in all key areas.
Energy Savers
We award the Energy Saver logo to
products that our testing shows are very energy efficient, meaning
they'll cost you less to run.
Don't Buys
The Which? Don't Buy logo alerts you
to the products that performed extremely poorly in one or more key
areas of our tests.
Ease of use
Includes ease of setup, everyday use, keyboard and touchpad accuracy and comfort and use on the lap
Screen
Screen quality under mid-lighting conditions
Sound quality
Sound quality from built-in speakers
Launch date
Older models may be harder to track down - but you may find a bargain. Test programmes and key features change over time but we re-evaluate results for older models to make them as comparable as possible with newer models.
Memory
This is the memory that comes with the netbook. It's sometimes possible to add more later if required.
Price
We check the availability of Best Buys at major high-street retailers and online. With other models, we show their availability at online retailers (many of these products will also be available in larger high-street chains or at independent retailers).
