Samsung SyncMaster T220 review

Reviews Is it possible to base a monitor purchase strictly on the display's bezel? Unfortunately, the T220 uses an oval base, which is prone to wobble and even more so in this case since the T220 sits up high.

Philips WACS700 review

Reviews Once songs are ripped, the base station will stream music to as many as five slave systems (alternatively called satellites). The pithily named WACS700 consists of a base unit and a slave unit to which music can be wirelessly streamed.

Samsung SyncMaster 173P review

Reviews The display sits on a small but stable circular base, under which is an embedded lazy Susan that swivels 360 degrees. The display features both analogue and digital signal inputs (Samsung includes both cables) that are neatly housed and easily...

Sharp Aquos LC-15L1E review

Reviews Since the TV has an input on its back, in addition to the inputs on the base station, we were able to compare wired with wireless picture quality. But a handle on the top signifies the TV's portability: when you connect an antenna, a cable TV box...

Logitech USB Desktop Microphone review

Reviews The base, 89mm square, takes up minimal space -- the microphone itself stands 200mm from the base and about 230mm from the desk surface. With a stylish and compact design, the Logitech USB Desktop Microphone looks like minimalist sculpture.

Dell SP2208WFP review

Reviews A glossy black belt runs along the sides, which matches the black rectangular base. The stand provides a very stable base that is not prone to wobble, and we like the look of it more than Dell's standard flying V base found on its enterprise...

Asus PW201 review

Reviews The overall aesthetic is similar to that of most flat-panel televisions, although the circular shape of the PW201's base gives it away as a PC monitor. When we first received the product, we blogged somewhat jokingly that its thick, shiny black...

Sony LocationFree review

Reviews To use the LocationFree you simply install the accompanying LocationFree Player software on a PC, connect to the Internet and log into the base station at your home. Strengths The LocationFree base station has an understated look about it.

Laptops with solid-state hard drives

Reviews The base model ships with an 80GB parallel ATA drive with a spin speed of 4,200rpm. The base model starts at £179 and for this you get a basic, but highly portable laptop that comes with 2GB, 4GB or 8GB of solid-state memory.

Dell XPS 710 H2C review

Reviews Our review sample of the H2C 710 can be customised up from the base spec on the Dell Web site for £3,203.45 (the base spec costs £2,998.99), although this is subject to change. Many thought Dell's XPS gaming brand would vanish into obscurity after...

Sony SDM-S204 review

Reviews However, the SDM-S204 swivels a generous 175 degrees on a lazy Susan underneath the base, and you can tilt the panel about 20 degrees backward and a few degrees forward. Drivers, manuals, a knowledge base and access to tech-support email are all...

HP Compaq 6720s review

Reviews The hinges for the lid are recessed within the back of the chassis so that the base of the lid swivels down towards the desk when you open the laptop. The slate-grey lid section and the black base are not held together with a secure clasp.

Compaq Presario SR1729 review

Reviews The base unit is a dull-looking, generically styled midi-tower unit finished in mainly black, with silver highlights. This helps to maintain the smooth lines of the PC, but as with all base units that tread this path, there's a slight danger of the...
