Siemens AX72 review

Reviews The Siemens AX72 is an entry level, GPRS candybar phone with a simple design and a 65k-colour screen. The screen, although colour, is pixelated and images look distorted compared to the Nokia N70, for example, which features a 262k-colour screen.

Samsung YH-925 (20GB) review

Reviews If you thought the Samsung YH-925 was little more than a colour version of the Samsung YH-920, well, you were right. It also lets you upload photos directly from compatible digital cameras -- not bad for a colour player that sells for as low as...

Reviews Colour laser printers have traditionally been huge, expensive items that are seldom found in the home. Design The CLP-300 is approximately the same size as a standard mono laser printer, and half the size of a traditional colour laser.

Reviews Although the 160x128-pixel, 260k-colour TFT LCD is extremely sharp and bright, it measures only 30mm (1.2 inches) diagonally. The company's latest flash player, the £199 iAudio U3, packs in even more features, including 2GB of memory (the 1GB...

Nokia 7900 Prism review
