Nokia 1200 review
Reviews Sending text messages is a piece of cake and the call quality is also superb, delivering crisp and clean speech. If the Nokia 1200 was a politician it would be banging on about taking a 'back to basics' approach.

Navigon 7210 review
Reviews While some might find those safety features distracting, the on-board text-to-speech support works alongside them to minimise the time you need to look at the screen, and we think that's helpful. Navigon has been working hard to get a foothold in...

Samsung J600 review
Reviews Call quality was very good, though, with speech sounding crisp and clear and when you switch on the speakerphone, it's loud enough to be useful in all but the noisiest conditions. If you're after a slick and shiny looking handset in the mould of...

Samsung F210 review
Reviews The phone's call quality was very good with speech sounding crisp and clean. The Samsung F210 is essentially the follow up to the Samsung Blush. Its tall and slim design makes it really stand out, even among fashion phones, and means that it looks...

Fujitsu Siemens Lifebook P7230 review
Reviews Other interesting features include a 1.3-megapixel camera built into the upper portion of the screen bezel, a couple of shortcut keys next to the power button, and twin (array) microphones, which can improve the accuracy of Vista's integrated...

Panasonic Viera TX-37LZD80 review
Reviews Of course, this technique is never going to produce realistic effects behind you -- as a full 5.1 system would -- but we found it did improve the clarity of speech and increased the stereo separation.

Medion GoPal P4425 review
Reviews The text-to-speech option was useful, but it did not pronounce every road name and only standard voice commands where given while routing over roundabouts. We took the £250 Medion GoPal P4425 for a test drive to see if its sat-nav performance was...

Route 66 Chicago 8000 review
Reviews Voice instructions were audibly clear and precise, but you only get the basic commands such as 'turn left in 400 yards', there is no text-to-speech option, so you need to rely more on the maps to route around roundabouts and complex junctions.

LG 32LG5000 review
Reviews Because the TV is designed to have invisible speakers, LG needed to ensure the sound quality was as good as possible, and that speech was as clear as it could be. If you want a smart TV with a stylish exterior, but don't really care about a bunch...

Vosonic VP8360 review
Reviews The loudspeaker is best for speech. It's a belter of a portable media device and at around £250 for the 80GB model it won't break the bank either. We reviewed the 80GB version, but 60GB, 100GB and 120GB options are also available.

Blaupunkt TravelPilot Lucca 3.5 Edition review
Reviews Voice directions were loud and well spoken, but the unit does not have full text-to-speech for pronouncing road names, but it does pronounce major A-roads such as "turn left on to the A5127". With its circular design, the Blaupunkt TravelPilot...

RAC Sat Nav 220 review
Reviews As mentioned, voice directions are loud but still basic in nature, so don't expect to find a text-to-speech option -- it's only 'turn left in 400 yards' and not 'turn left onto Monmouth Drive', for example.

Navigon 5110 review
Reviews Though the voice calculations are clear and precise, it has no text-to-speech support so road names are not spoken. The 5110 is Navigon's latest dedicated GPS receiver, which features European maps, Traffic

Navman S70 review
Reviews There is also no text to speech option -- for pronouncing road names -- so you need to rely more on the maps to navigate. The Navman S70, with its European maps, offers a simple method of navigation via its innovative NavPix technology.
