Sony Handycam HDR-XR520VE review

Wed, 15 Jul 2009 14:55:01 +0000

Despite a relatively awkward user interface and a high price tag, the Handycam HDR-XR520VE is a great hi-def camcorder. It records first-rate video to an ample 240GB hard drive, offers great performance and sports a consumer-friendly feature set, including built-in GPS

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

Loewe Art SL 42 Full-HD+ 100 DR+ review

Mon, 20 Apr 2009 11:34:02 +0000

If you discount its ridiculous name, the 42-inch, 1080p Art SL 42 Full-HD+ 100 DR+ LCD TV has plenty going for it. It's attractive, boasts good picture and sound quality, and offers more configuration options than you can shake a stick at. The real question is whether you're willing to spend over £3,000 on a TV

Sony Handycam HDR-CX100 review

Tue, 07 Apr 2009 16:26:02 +0000

The compact, flash-based Handycam HDR-CX100 has a boxy but pleasant design and shoots decent video, performing particularly well in low light. Whether or not it's right for you depends on how significant a factor size is, as you can get better-equipped but larger models for the same price

LG BD370 review

Tue, 07 Apr 2009 12:05:02 +0000

The reasonably priced BD370 is one of the best-looking and best-specified Blu-ray players on the market, offering excellent media-playback capability and great image quality. It lacks analogue 7.1 audio outputs but, apart from that, we love every aspect of this machine

JVC Everio GZ-HD40 review

Tue, 10 Mar 2009 17:12:01 +0000

The reasonably compact Everio GZ-HD40 is a dual-format high-definition camcorder, shooting in both AVCHD and MPEG-2 TS, allowing you to get the best of both worlds. The menu system is convoluted, but the HD40 offers very good video quality and plenty of manual options

Pioneer Kuro KRL-32V review

Tue, 11 Nov 2008 17:07:02 +0000

We're not going to pretend this TV is cheap. It is, however, an impressive LCD TV with solid Freeview picture quality and amazing HD pictures. Even upscaled DVDs look good on this TV. It's one for you if you have your heart set on a Pioneer, but can't have a 50 or 60-inch plasma

Oppo DV-980H review

Mon, 06 Oct 2008 15:22:02 +0000

First things first -- we love this DVD player for ignoring DVD region coding. But that isn't all it does: the Oppo DV-980H does just about everything else, too, including producing 1080p pictures. It may be expensive, but for what you're getting, it's great value and will be worth it for those who want to watch their DVDs in amazingly high quality

Humax LGB-22DYT review

Fri, 30 May 2008 13:14:02 +0000

Small LCD TVs don't have to sound awful. The LGB-22DYT, Humax's 22-inch offering, is out to buck the weedy-sounding trend, with a separate 'speaker bar' running the show instead of puny bezel speakers. It also crams in plenty of pixels, making for an HD Ready experience

Toshiba Regza 40ZF355D review

Tue, 13 May 2008 15:10:02 +0000

The Toshiba Regza 40ZF55D's may have an ultra-thin bezel but it's big on features. This 40-inch LCD TV includes 5:5 pulldown, which means 24p Blu-ray movies will look absolutely amazing. It excels as both a standard and high definition performer, making this a top choice
