PURE Digital Siesta Flow review

Wed, 25 Nov 2009 15:40:02 +0000

If you want to wake up to news from any part of the world, or whatever obscure tunes float your musical boat, the Siesta Flow DAB, FM and Internet radio is a great choice. It's not the sturdiest machine you can buy, but it sounds good and it's packed with features, including Wi-Fi connectivity

LG BD390 review

Thu, 19 Nov 2009 15:26:02 +0000

LG has done a sterling job of creating an affordable Blu-ray player that packs in the features, including Wi-Fi connectivity, without compromising on performance. Those who love movies and want to break down the barrier between their PC and TV should check it out

BlackBerry Storm 2 review

Tue, 17 Nov 2009 10:32:01 +0000

Anyone who finds normal touchscreens too fiddly will appreciate the BlackBerry Storm 2's clicking version, which makes it easy to tap accurately. The usual range of BlackBerry features is also included, making this handset well worth a look for email fiends with a hankering for a touch-sensitive interface

Loewe Connect 42 Media Full-HD+ 100 DR+ review

Tue, 10 Nov 2009 10:44:01 +0000

The 42-inch, 1080p Connect 42 Media Full-HD+ 100 DR+ is the very definition of a premium LCD TV. It looks stunning in every set-up option, its multimedia capability is unparalleled, it delivers positively Olympian sound, and its pictures are frequently awesome

Genius G-shot HD520 review

Tue, 03 Nov 2009 17:01:02 +0000

For £90 or thereabouts, you can't expect to get the pinnacle of video-capture performance, so it's no surprise that the G-shot HD520's 720p footage isn't the best we've ever clapped eyes on. But it's packed with features and worth a look for those who just want to capture the moment

Samsung Genio Touch review

Mon, 02 Nov 2009 14:34:02 +0000

Aimed at young 'uns, the touchscreen Genio Touch is cheap, attractive and full of smart-phone-like features. There's no on-screen Qwerty keyboard, 3G or Wi-Fi connectivity, but its media-playback capability is good and it's a solid budget handset overall

Sony Ericsson Aino review

Tue, 27 Oct 2009 17:50:02 +0000

The Aino functions both as an attractive slider phone and a touchscreen media device. It's insanely packed with features too, including the ability to stream video and audio from a PlayStation 3. The user interface could do with some work, but the Aino gets full marks for ambition

Hisense MP800H Media HD Player review

Mon, 12 Oct 2009 11:09:01 +0000

The MP800H Media HD Player offers 1080p video playback, either via USB or over your home network, for a remarkably low price. This media streamer may not have as many features as a Popcorn Hour machine, but it costs less than half as much, and its playback capabilities will be good enough for most people

HTC Touch2 review

Mon, 05 Oct 2009 23:00:00 +0000

The diminutive Touch2 is the first smart phone we've seen that runs Windows Mobile 6.5, and we're pleased to say that, although not perfect, the operating system is an improvement over previous versions. The Touch2 also benefits from access to the satisfying My Phone online syncing service, and Microsoft's app store

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
