Best Notebook with Price Under $300 and Processor Speed Atleast 1.5 GHz

The bottom line: The versatile HP Mini 210 adds best-of features from other HP laptops, but the HD video card requires a still-in-beta Flash update for streaming Flash video.

The Bottom Line

The three-pound system not only feels solid, but its inch-thin body is quite slender. Though its ClickPad is frustrating, as a basic netbook it's a decent option given its attractive design, comfortable keyboard and seven hours of battery life. *

The 10.1-inch LED Backlit LCD screen is perfect for viewing movies, pictures and WebPages. *

I can say its performance was very good, and its screen looked excellent. *

An easily upgradable netbook with exceptional style and battery life.

Feb 20 2010 - Gateway's LT2119u is a close cousin to the Acer Aspire One 532h netbook which is no big surprise. These means they share much of the same design and features. Battery life is above average but not class leading and the keyboard has both good and design aspects. It does use a larger hard drive and comes in a different color scheme but the Acer model can be found for less making the choice of the Gateway LT2119u more for looks than features.

You will be able to store up to 250GB worth of data on this Serial ATA Hard Drive, which features a read/write speed of 5400RPM. *

She has a Gateway laptop that is now 5 years old (bought 2.20.05) and works perfect. The Gateway LT2108u 10.1-Inch Red Netbook is ideal for those on the move who need a quick, easy way to connect to the Internet and stay in touch with family and friends. The new Gateway LT2118u is ideal for those on the move who need a quick, easy way to connect to the Internet and stay in touch with family and friends. The battery works great too. *

The size and weight makes this system great for carrying around wherever you need it. *

Excellent battery life (up to 10 hours). *

Most people should adapt to the LT2118u's keyboard just fine. Audio was fine through headphones, and decent enough for any kind of portable computer
through the speakers. *

An outline of silver is present throughout the edges of the keyboard. The keyboard is of a convenient size and its layout is acceptable with its height being doubled, but the RET key is small. *

The build quality of the Samsung N140 is great and this 1.3kg machine feels good to the touch. *

Performance is awesome. It has a sturdy, standard-type keyboard (non-chiclet) which I find great. *

Enjoy the power and portability that will help you stay productive without placing a heavy burden on your wallet. *

Heat The U135 kept its cool, something nice to see (and feel) on a device this small. *

Build quality was largely acceptable, but we felt the Wind U135 was slightly top-heavy. Despite being smaller, we had no complaints from its quality: the screen is evenly lit and offers good horizontal viewing angles. *

The Bottom Line

The keyboard is great, providing a firm typing action which we quickly became accustomed to. The touchpad is large and responsive, but positioned so close to the keyboard that it's easy to brush while typing, causing irritating cursor behaviour. The 10.1-inch screen is bright, making it easy to use in strong light, while the 1024 x 600-pixel resolution is surprisingly crisp, and you'll have no issues reading or creating word processors. *

MSI's latest netbook impresses us with a quality keyboard.

The bottom line: Asus hits nearly all the marks in the 1005HA, the latest version of its iconic Eee PC, highlighted by a 6-hour-plus battery life.

It's funny, really: Many makers of high-end notebooks don't even bother--simply tossing a PDF in the box--and yet this well-laid-out book covers all the bases. The other big features in play here come in the form of the power toggle mode (accessible through holding the function button and tapping the space bar) and a software suite that sits on your desktop. Great keyboard and mouse. The buttons are firm and large enough to type on easily. *

Black is elegant, especially when you’re out on the town with your new Asus Eee PC 1005HA-PU1X-BK Netbook. *

The Eee PC 1005HA-P is available in black and blue and both have a gloss finish lid that looks lovely but attracts fingerprints like mad. The Eee PC 1005HA-P hit the top position in PCMark among several recent netbooks we've reviewed but that margin is slim since there's relatively little variation in CPU, RAM and hard drives used in these machines. The charger is very compact and though there have been some reports on the Net of the charger running very hot and doing a temporary thermal s... *
