Goodmans LD2667D review

Fri, 24 Jul 2009 16:11:01 +0000

If you want a 26-inch, HD Ready LCD TV and have only £250 to spend, you might want to check out Goodmans' LD2667D. At this price, you can't expect cutting-edge features, fantastic picture quality or the last word in audio performance, but it's not a bad-looking set

Sony Bravia KDL-26V4000 review

Fri, 03 Apr 2009 11:35:02 +0000

The HD Ready KDL-26V4000 LCD TV is surprisingly affordable for a Sony Bravia set. Judged by Sony's current standards, it's short on features and looks unglamorous, but it produces some of the best pictures we've seen from a 26-inch TV, with bright, rich colours and deep, convincing black levels

Fri, 25 Apr 2008 11:18:01 +0000

As the freesat launch gets closer we're starting to get a sniff of some of the hardware we'll be able to buy -- all we need now is for the BBC and ITV to name a date

Sharp Aquos LC32AD5E review

Mon, 03 Mar 2008 14:33:02 +0000

Normally known as a high-end brand, Sharp has cut out all the extras with this low-cost 32-inch 720p LCD TV. It still boasts a perfectly acceptable set of connections and the trademark Sharp style, and although its performance isn't totally reliable, it's a very good option if you're on a budget

Goodmans GHD1621F2 review

Fri, 11 Jan 2008 11:24:02 +0000

Goodmans GHD1621F2 features an attractive design that houses two integrated Freeview tuners, which means you can record one programme while you watch another or even record two digital programmes at the same time. It's a fuss free device that's excellent value for money

Mon, 26 Nov 2007 12:10:01 +0000

Christmas is rushing towards is like an out-of-control juggernaut so it's time for the Christmas gift ideas to start flooding in. Sony gets to go first, because it's designed a pink TV

Sanyo CE32LD81-B review

Tue, 13 Nov 2007 17:10:02 +0000

The Sanyo CE32LD81-B is a remarkably low priced 32-inch HD Ready LCD TV. It has plenty of connections and good sound. Pictures are bright and burst off the screen in way not usually seen on budget sets. Standard definition fare looks great and objects move across the screen with little resolution loss

Dual-tuner PVRs

Wed, 17 Jan 2007 17:42:01 +0000

If you've ever been embroiled in a battle for the TV remote, or have had to choose between two top programmes vying for supremacy in the same viewing slot, it might be worth investing in a dual-tuner PVR...

Sharp TU-R160H review

Mon, 18 Dec 2006 15:32:02 +0000

A digital recorder that integrates a sizeable 160GB hard drive for 80 hours of recordings and dual TV tuners, so you can record one programme while you watch another, but this Sharp unit is rather similar to a box from Goodmans we reviewed recently, which is much cheaper
