If you're a movie lover with deep pockets, the Philips Cinema 21:9 is unlikely to disappoint, offering a truly immersive way to enjoy films shot in the 2.35:1 aspect ratio in the comfort of your couch.

Sony Bravia ZX1 (KDL-40ZX1) review

Wed, 28 Oct 2009 12:43:01 +0000

The 40-inch Sony Bravia KDL-40ZX1 LCD TV with LED edge lights looks stunning and is remarkably thin. Also capable of receiving a 1080i signal wirelessly -- which means less cable clutter -- it's a good choice if you want a TV whose mere appearance will make your friends insanely jealous

Samsung HT-BD8200 review

Mon, 05 Oct 2009 14:30:02 +0000

One of the most compact Blu-ray player and speaker systems we've encountered, the HT-BD8200 is an excellent choice for those beginning to dip their toes into the home-cinema water. Although it could do with more inputs for other equipment, its sound and picture quality are great

Tue, 25 Aug 2009 17:35:02 +0000

£160,000 can buy you many things. In London, it'll get you a small flat. Up North, it can purchase several hotels. Or it could land you the ultimate gadget -- an Aston Martin DBS

Samsung PS50B550 review

Mon, 10 Aug 2009 13:29:02 +0000

The 1080p, 50-inch Samsung PS50B550 plasma TV isn't the most adventurous of sets but it's well worth splashing out on. Its high-definition and standard-definition pictures are both great, it sports a pleasingly retro design and it's got more connections than you can shake an HDMI cable at

Tue, 28 Jul 2009 10:54:02 +0000

It's hugely expensive but the 46-inch Viera TX-P46Z1 plasma TV offers tonnes of features to get excited about and fantastic performance with 1080p video. The best of thing of all is that it can display high-definition video wirelessly. That means less clutter and less marital strife

LG 50PS6000 review

Mon, 13 Jul 2009 12:42:02 +0000

The 50-inch, 1080p LG 50PS6000 is a great plasma TV. Those seeking absolutely perfect picture quality will want to look elsewhere, but those who want a humungous set that offers good performance for a reasonable price will be more than happy with this TV

Samsung UE46B8000 review

Mon, 08 Jun 2009 15:27:02 +0000

The 46-inch, 1080p, LED-edge-lit UE46B8000 is fantastically thin, offers excellent picture quality and is packed full of useful and entertaining features. It's pricey and there are some patchiness issues with the backlight on rare occasions, but this is a remarkable set

Panasonic DMR-BS750 review

Tue, 19 May 2009 16:58:02 +0000

We have no idea how Panasonic has managed it, but a box this size has surely never done so many things before. The BS750 lets you watch free high-definition broadcasts, record them to Blu-ray disc and play Blu-ray movies and all their cool online features. You can even watch YouTube. The only problem: the price
