Seagate FreeAgent Xtreme review
Reviews The drive also performed very smoothly and quietly -- it stayed relatively cool during the testing process, too. And the fact it worked quietly throughout testing is an important consideration for any drive that may become a semi-permanent resident...

Olympus C-55 Zoom review
Reviews PerformanceWe found the Olympus C-55 Zoom's performance inconsistent, both in our standard testing and in everyday use. The shortest shutter lag we experienced in our testing was a respectable 0.65 seconds.

Sony Vaio VGN-FS115Z review
Reviews PerformanceSlower components, particularly the RAM and the hard drive, took their toll on the VAIO VGN-FS115Z's performance in our benchmark testing. The VAIO VGN-FS115Z turned in an adequate score in our battery-drain testing, clocking 218 minutes...

Intel Classmate PC review
Reviews In anecdotal testing, it was surprising to see Windows XP run so smoothly on a system with only 256MB of RAM. Intel Classmate PC, but in informal testing, we were able to use the system for about three hours while running a light mix of tasks...

Motorola Razr V3i review
Reviews PerformanceVoice calls were unproblematic during testing in terms of volume and call quality. Battery life was pretty good -- we didn't drain the handset on any single day during testing, though use of a Bluetooth headset and music playing meant we...

Dell UltraSharp 2707WFP review
Reviews Of course the large screen does facilitate sitting further from the screen, which we'd recommend after our testing. All these factors explain some of our observations during testing, including soft, grainy, noisy video on the one hand but sharp...

Canon EOS 400D review
Reviews It fared slightly better in our testing, though the 7-second lag before you can continue shooting can be frustrating. We did most of our testing with the kit lens. Changing sensors isn't normally considered terribly daring when it comes to digital...

Cowon iAudio D2 (4GB) review
Reviews Transcoding takes time, but it proved easy to do in testing, and the resulting files played back flawlessly on the D2. The rated battery life of 52 hours for audio and 10 hours for video is also nothing to scoff at -- indeed, it's very impressive...

Panasonic SDR-SW20 review
Reviews The novelty of waterproof gadgets takes a long time to wear off and we'll never tire of drop-testing products. While you can't really drop it in your Carlsberg, the rugged Panasonic SDR-SW20 standard-definition camcorder will survive a spill or...

Samsung LE52F96 review
Reviews Testing the TV with Serenity proved how good the LED backlight can be. During our testing we found that the TV has a reasonably small viewing angle, far more so than other LCD televisions we've tested.

Sony Bravia KDL-46W3000 review
Reviews So it's with high expectations that we set about testing the £1,600 Bravia KDL-46W3000: a true 'second-generation' 46-inch Bravia model that looks -- on paper, at least -- like it's got everything a TV needs for success.
