Sony Handycam DCR-SR100 review

overclocking

Reviews The practice of modifying computer hardware to make its CPU run faster than the manufacturer intended. Manufacturers warn against overclocking, and it doesn't always work -- the computer must have a bus that can keep up with the faster processor...

Cowon iAudio D2 DMB (DAB) review

Reviews The gentle but articulate Korean manufacturer Cowon could only have made us smile more about its iAudio D2 MP3 player had it jammed a banana firmly between our lips. Now, it has upped the spec on the flash-based player to include a DAB radio.

Jamo i300 review

Reviews The i300 was crafted by the cultured hands of Danish manufacturer Jamo, whose stylish speaker systems are the visual equivalent of Danish bacon -- tasty. With a powerful 150W sub and two weighty 75W satellite speakers, this iPod-ready £250 sound...

Sagem my300C review

Reviews Fortunately, the French manufacturer has figured out a way to make inexpensive look good in the form of the my300C. Sagem is synonymous with cheap and cheerful mobile phones that look and feel a little plasticky, to say the least.

LG Prada KE850 review

Reviews When it launched the Chocolate phone last year, LG established itself as a serious fashion-phone manufacturer. Gone are the days when the company made ugly lumps of plastic -- now its mobile phones are synonymous with class and style.

Mio H610 review

Reviews More than any other GPS manufacturer out there today, Mio has really focused its attention on creating GPS devices for use outside of the car, such as the Mio C710. The company's latest device, the Mio H610, is the most ambitious to date in terms...

Casio Exilim EX-Z700 review

Reviews It seems as if nearly every camera manufacturer is cramming a 6-plus-megapixel CCD and an inexpensive lens into a tiny case and putting it on the shelves. Ultracompact cameras are everywhere. Without exceptional quality or a unique feature, it's...

Sony KE-P42M1 review

Reviews Sony is the most prolific electronics manufacturer in the world, but the company hasn't made a huge impact in plasma TVs -- yet. The Japanese giant has been backing the technology, but it has let Panasonic and Pioneer woo the early adopters, before...

Panasonic Viera TH42PX60 review

Reviews The manufacturer's early missteps, such as the use of low-resolution screens and a lack of digital video connections, have now been consigned to the dustbin marked 'past mistakes', as this new model shows.

Ferguson Hill FH007 and FH008 review

Reviews You may not have heard of Ferguson Hill, but it's a British manufacturer of a very small group of obscurely designed speakers. The company's flagship speaker setup -- comprising the FH001 and FH002 -- will set you back £12,000.
