Philips AJL308 digital clock and photo frame review

Reviews The Philips AJL308 clock radio/photo frame is a tricky product to review. What makes it tough is that on one level the idea of combining a clock radio with a digital photo frame is a really cool concept -- and in many ways the AJL308 succeeds.

Macally TunePro iPod alarm clock review

Reviews In the search for the perfect iPod alarm clock, there have been winners and there have been duds. StrengthsThe Macally TunePro crams an AM/FM radio, alarm clock and iPod speaker dock into an attractive 330 by 114 by 127mm of space.

Logitech Pure-Fi Dream review

Reviews It's a heavy piece of kit for what is essentially a tricked-out alarm clock, and Logitech hasn't cut any corners in terms of construction. It's not intended to be used simply as an iPod-compatible alarm clock, though, but as a room-filling audio...

Select the processor and memory

Reviews Its clock speed tops out at only 1.42GHz and, like all products from Apple, it's not cheap. It's the single most important component, but that doesn't mean you need to rush out and splurge on the processor with the fastest clock speed.

JVC NX-PN7 iPod/iPhone audio system review

Reviews Interestingly enough, JVC does not advertise the PN7 as an alarm clock, but instead uses the word 'timer'. This is essentially an alarm clock that can be set for any day of the week (or every day). Following in the old saying that if 'some is good...

What are my processor, screen and memory options?

Reviews Long battery life and relatively inexpensive, but slower clock speeds limit performance, especially under OS X Excellent performance and reasonable battery life, but expensive and clock speeds top out at 1GHz

HP Pavilion TX1020ea review

Reviews The chassis and battery clock in at 2.55kg, which is what we'd expect of 14- or even 15-inch laptops. It's a dual-core processor, so you needn't worry -- it's not as slow as its modest clock speed suggests.

LG FM37 review

Reviews The main menu screen consists of six option icons displayed like the numbers around a clock face. For example, to increase the volume when playing a file, you can rub your finger around the screen in a clockwise motion, as if following the numbers...

O2 Cocoon review

Reviews This innovative feature might sound very gimmicky but it's actually useful, particularly when put together with the Cocoon's dock, turning it into a fully fledged alarm clock. This retro-looking handset slots into the base and turns into a bedside...

PURE Digital Siesta review

Reviews When listening to a DAB broadcast, station and song info sits on a couple of lines below the clock. Should PURE Digital release an update to the ever-important firmware of an alarm clock, a USB socket built into the base of the system will let you...

Intel Core 2 Extreme QX6700 review

Reviews But if you've been paying attention to recent CPU developments, you might remember that the X6800 actually has a faster clock speed, coming in at 2.93GHz. As our single-core CineBench scores show, you might run into some apps that benefit more from...

PURE Digital Chronos iDock review

Reviews As well as having multiple alarms wake you to DAB, FM, iPod or the standard annoying alarm clock screeching, the iDock lets you browse your iPod's library, hook up external audio sources with a stereo cable and it does it with the promise that it...

Sony XDR-S1 review

Reviews It's annoying that if you leave it unplugged for more than five minutes you have to do it all again, including setting the clock and the presets. The few exceptions are setting up the clock and options such as backlighting and contrast for the screen.
