LG - X110 review


LG doesn't release laptops in the UK. Or at least it didn't. But it has just released the X110, which is one of the new netbook machines. In this case it comes with mobile broadband and is classed as free if you are prepared to commit yourself to a 24-month contract.
We could only find it available from Phones4u and it is on three contracts. In all cases you pay £35 per month. On Orange there is a 3GB data cap with maximum data speed of 1.8Mbps. On Vodafone the data cap is also 3GB but speed tops out at 7.2Mbps. 3 only goes to 2.8Mbps but the data cap is 5GB. So, if you aren't that bothered about super fast downloading, 3 seems to have the best offer.
In all cases both pink and white versions of the X110 are available.
This is one of the best netbooks we've seen. The build quality is superb and in particular the keyboard is very well made and has a positive feel to it. You might find its size a little lacking if you have larger hands, but we had no trouble touch-typing at a fair old lick.
