This 13.3-inch entertainment laptop is perfect for staving off boredom on the move. The Satellite L730-10G lacks graphical punch, but the compact display is a highlight, while the lightweight body and decent battery life ensure you'll be entertained wherever you roam. Despite its smaller screen, the Satellite L730-10G still features a 1366 x 768-pixel resolution. The result is a much sharper picture, so images look crisp and clean. It's also a bright and vibrant panel, making this one of the best displays for movie watching. We enjoyed simply browsing our photo collection and watching films, although the integrated speakers are lacking in power. We recommend you invest in some decent headphones. Most recent laptops use Intel's latest Sandy Bridge processing technology, but this portable is powered by one of Intel's older Core i3 processors. However, the difference in our benchmarking tests was minimal. If you love to multitask, browsing the web at the same time as you watch a film and chat with friends using messenger applications, then the Samsung can handle it. Even with a paltry 2GB of memory on board, we witnessed little slowdown while running several tasks at once.
Toshiba's L730 is a small and light 13-inch laptop with a young and funky look that's likely to win it a lot of fans among students, especially as it's relatively affordable. Our configuration, the L730-10G, costs around £500.With its 13-inch screen this model is fairly compact, although it's not the thinnest ultra portable we've come across, as it measures 37mm thick. The design is top class as the glossy lid and keyboard surround has an interesting diamond pattern stamped into it and there's beautiful detailing such as the elongated speaker grills. We also love the nicely curved edges and the contrasting black keyboard and touchpad buttons. The laptop's 13.3-inch screen has a resolution of 1366x768 pixels, which is pretty standard for a machine in this price range. The display has a glossy rather than matte coating, so it is a bit reflective, but we didn’t find this all that distracting when using it in the office under bright overhead lights. It produces very bright and crisp images and colours are rich and vivid and the wide viewing angles that make it great for sharing a movie with a friend while travelling. Unlike a lot of the laptops we see today, this model doesn’t have an isolated keyboard. Instead the keys are tightly packed together as they are on a traditional tapered style model.
