What is it:
10-inch netbook with long battery life and subwoofer

Typical price:
£370

We like:
Excellent battery life; large keyboard

We don't like:
Keyboard lacks feel; no high-speed wi-fi or 3G; 'subwoofer' is a joke

The judgement:
The N120 is larger and slightly more unwieldy than the NC10, but it has a larger keyboard and better battery life. The keyboard could be improved slightly, and we're not big fans of the glossy screen, but on the whole, it's a very good machine. Just don't buy into the 'subwoofer' hype
