Sagem DTR 64160: Pretty cheap, but not all that pretty

Crave We'd also like to see an HDMI output -- with most TVs being HD Ready, it makes sense to get the best picture into the TV, rather than relying on converting the digital signal to analogue first. The built-in 160GB hard drive is large enough to...

Pioneer Kuro KRL-32V review

Reviews Of course, this also has a lot to do with the company's decision to cease production of 42-inch HD-Ready PDPs (plasma display panels). When Pioneer announced that it was producing a Kuro LCD TV, a number of people reacted strongly, and not in a...

Toshiba Regza 42ZV555D: 'World's first' upscaling TV

Crave All HD Ready TVs have upscalers built in, because if they didn't, when you came to watch something that was shot in a resolution different to that of the screen, you'd end up with a postage stamp-sized bit of video.

Limited edition Pioneer Kuro: Perfect black meets perfect beige and white

Crave That means these TVs are provided with a media box, which has a built-in Freeview receiver, as well as a high-definition satellite decoder -- note this isn't the same as freesat, but it will pick up BBC HD.

WHDi: Wireless HD video demoed

Crave After two years of telling us, makers of wireless HD video systems are now showing us how this works in actual products. Sharp is selling a wireless video adaptor for its Aquos X-series LCD TV in Japan already, and Sony is selling a WHDi-enabled...

Sony PlayStation 3 (80GB) review

Reviews To get HD video, you'll need component or HDMI, which leaves us asking why Sony does not ship the console HD Ready out of the box. Yes, the Xbox 360 and Nintendo Wii also have their own handful of exclusive titles (Halo, Fable and Gears of War on...

LG 50PG6900 review

Reviews That said, we maintain that you can get a staggeringly good picture from a 720p set, and if you're looking to save a few quid you would probably be very happy with a good HD-ready TV. HD material from Blu-ray did look very good.the remarkable movie...

Panasonic DMP-BD35 and BD55: New ultra-sleek Blu-ray players

Crave Sadly, Panasonic is showing no sign of including HD decoding for MPEG-4 or MKV container support. Both of these players support Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD for lossless audio joy in your living room -- indeed, both can decode internally and send via...

Sling Media Slingbox Pro-HD review

Reviews The Pro-HD's rear panel boasts multiple sets of inputs and outputs, so it can sit innocuously between your cable or satellite box (or DVR) and your TV, and soak up signals from three sources: one for a standard definition (composite or S-Video...

LG 32LG4000 review

Reviews The 32LG4000's TV and HD pictures, meanwhile, are agreeably bright and punchy, with vivid colours and clean whites. HD pictures look reasonably detailed too, considering this TV doesn't have much in the way of image processing (not even LG's...

Toshiba XD-E500 review

Medion Akoya S5610 review

Onkyo TX-SR706: THX, 1080p upscaling and all sorts

Crave As you might imagine, the SR-706 is ready for the latest lossless audio codecs, DTS-HD and Dolby TrueHD, so if you're a Blu-ray lover, you'll get some impressive performance. Handy if you've got loads of kit and not many HDMI sockets on your TV.

Four of the best plasma televisions

Reviews We can't say enough that 1080p isn't necessary for smaller sets -- honestly, you can't tell the difference -- so for 37- or 42-inch models, just get HD Ready. Sure, it's not a 1080p TV, but we were impressed by so many of its talents we couldn't...
