Samsung LE52M87BD review

Reviews For included among them are a very healthy three HDMIs, all of which are compatible with the new v1.3 standard, and all of which take every hi-def format known to man, including the new 1080p/24fps format.

Alcatel OT-S120 review

Reviews We particularly like that the navigation keys are nice and large, so we aren't pressing multiple buttons with our man-thumbs. Sometimes all you want -- and frankly, need -- is a phone that does the basics and does them well.

Kodak EasyShare M853 review

Reviews One man's simplicity is another's paucity. The Kodak EasyShare M853 sits in the middle of the M series, a range of simple point and shoots that come in a variety of colours. It's a steal at around £79, but we quickly found that the price reflects...

Panasonic Viera TH42PX60 review

Reviews Panasonic has managed to shave a few centimetres off the frame either side of the screen, and also, in a trick worthy of creepy magic man David Copperfield, made the speakers disappear. Panasonic's Viera range is now firmly established as a front...

MP3 players for snowboarding

Reviews Once you're on the top of the slopes, free from the tyranny of man's constant clatter, you can use its built-in speaker to ruin everything. So, you greasy little snowboarder, bain of the skier's life, but infinitely cooler, mainly because you don't...

PQI mPack P600 review

Reviews The P600 looks even more like a sci-fi prop than the Motorola V3 -- both seem to have been dragged back from an era when man dreamt great things of the future -- back in the age of lava lamps and Disney's Epcot Centre.

Compaq Presario SR1729 review

Reviews The bottom of the base unit has an unusual pattern that makes the PC look a tad like the ghost creatures from Pac-Man. The high saturation of the mid-range PC market is both a blessing and a curse. On one hand, the sheer number of PCs available...

Samsung NV24HD review

Reviews When adjusting the shutter speed slider to a faster speed, the icon -- a little man -- is crisp and sharp, only to blur as you make the shutter slower. Samsung's NV series is known for its solid build quality and unconventional smart touch interface.

Vodafone 526 review

Reviews If you live the life of a high-profile international man or woman of mystery, this handset isn't for you -- it's dual-band only, so it won't work in faraway lands like the US of A. Among the usual line-up of handsets from manufacturers such as Sony...

Asus F3E AP073C review

Reviews Its integrated Intel GMA X3100 graphics chip only managed to achieve a 3DMark06 result of 410, so you could run into trouble trying to run anything more demanding than Pac-Man on it. If you're shopping for a laptop that's a good all-rounder but won...

Mio DigiWalker A501 review

Reviews Design-wise, it sits in the no-man's land between a PDA, a sat-nav and a phone. While Nokia has recently been muscling in on the GPS market with the N95, big names in the sat-nav world such as TomTom and Navman have shown no interest in creating...

Onkyo TX-SR576 review

Reviews We fired up some of our favourite Blu-ray movies, including Batman Begins and Spider-Man and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Surround sound is the essential companion to a good TV. There really isn't any point in spending thousands on your...

Philips Cineos 42PFL9703 review

Reviews Our Blu-ray test material looked excellent in full 1080p: we thoroughly enjoyed both Spider-Man and our current favourite disc, Batman Begins. The Ambilight TVs are now pretty well known and although the concept of lighting the wall behind the TV...

Sony PSP review

Reviews The picture quality from a UMD movie such as Spider-Man 2 is superior to what you'll see on most portable DVD players, though the majority of DVD players have significantly larger screens. When you play games and watch movies such as Spider-Man 2...
