Terratec Cinergy T2 review

Reviews It serves about 80 per cent of the population, but the same can't be said for geographical area, and this is the key when you're moving about. We've seen some very small Freeview boxes, but this really takes the biscuit -- its footprint is about 50...

Nikon Coolpix P80 review

Reviews Both displays update fast enough so that they don't interfere with shooting, although the EVF only displays 97 per cent of the scene, compared with 100 per cent for the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ18. Nikon's latest edition to its Coolpix range is the...

Apple iPod nano (4GB) review

Reviews The nano's capacity will turn off many experienced MP3 fans, but we have a feeling that newbies will flock to the next big thing and help maintain Apple's 85 per cent UK market share for all digital audio players.

Canon EOS 30D review

Reviews Though that might sound like a quibble, it means you won't see as much of a difference between the 30D's 9 per cent partial metering mode and the spot meter as you would between other cameras' metering modes.

Nikon Coolpix S1 review

Reviews The LCD viewfinder -- there is no optical viewfinder window -- shows just 87 per cent of the image (100 per cent on review), so the stray digits escaped our notice until it was too late. Tiny size, image quality that's acceptable but not...

HP 2133 Mini-Note PC review

Reviews HP says the keyboard is 92 per cent of the size of a 'standard' laptop keyboard, but we'd say many of the keys are actually larger, and more comfortable than what you get on some bigger laptops. In our BatteryEater test, it lasted 1 hour 52 minutes...
