This laptop is both high quality and good fun. Usually, a laptop in colours such as pink come with low spec or a really high spec laptop comes in black or silver. So, already this laptop has the best of both. It's not overly expensive either at just £450 with it's TV tuner, HDMI port, 2GB RAM and an anti-glare 12.1" screen with a sharp1200x800 native resolution.

When bought as a package you get the laptop, a case and mouse, all in your chosen colour of either pink, blue or green. It is slightly heavier (4 pounds) than other laptops as it is quite a small laptop in length and width (11.9x9.1 inches) but rather bulky (1.1 inches).

It comes with wireless features, so by turning on the wireless button you can connect with all internet service within your range without having to buy any additional equipment. With it's small size and wireless features, not to mention the free case, this laptop is extremely portable.

It also comes also with a 120GB hard-drive which gives you plenty of space to store your files, music and other things. It has a place for headphones and a microphone. Also, two USB ports, fire wire and a memory card reader can be found along the sides of the laptop. There's also a DVD burner.

The battery life is much longer than I expected at about 2 and a half hours. It also comes with a two-year warranty. I'd say this laptop was definitely one to get, especially for a teenager who needs one for High School or College.

This laptop is also very durable, trust me because I stupidly dropped mine when I was standing up and it made an almighty bang, I thought for sure it would be damaged or broken... but nope. Not a scratch in sight and still worked perfectly :)

The fun colours and the high specifications make me give this laptop a 10/10.
