Bowers & Wilkins Zeppelin iPod speaker review
Reviews Let's face it: as a category iPod speakers are a pretty uninspired lot. Their plastic, boxy and sometimes downright awful industrial design flies in the face of the iPod's masterful aesthetic and intuitive ergonomics.

Pentax Optio V20 review
Reviews Face detection, smile detection and now blink detection -- Pentax ups the facial recognition stakes with an auto-everything snapper that claims to deliver the perfect portrait. Face detection works fine, following multiple mugs simultaneously, but...

Ricoh Caplio GX100 review
Reviews Taking its design cues as much from classic film cameras as from modern digital rivals, the GX100 presents a sophisticated matte-black face to the world. While larger camera makers trot out variants of face-detection autofocus systems or ultra-high...

Canon Digital IXUS 85 IS review
Reviews The spec is bang up to date, though, with a 10-megapixel sensor, face detection and even image stabilisation. The same could be said about the face detection mode: it's perfectly serviceable for head-on mugshots, but turns its nose up when your...

Olympus mju 1010 review
Reviews The mju 1010 is a 10-megapixel style camera with an impressive 7x lens, image stabilisation and face detection. The face-detection system on board is average, working very well with full-face portraits on a plain background, but tending to get...

Kodak EasyShare M1033 review
Reviews The M1033 defaults to fully automatic Smart Capture, which analyses the scene and selects from macro (close-up), landscape and face detection focus modes. This works pretty well, although face detection sometimes activates in error when it sees a...

Canon PowerShot TX1 review
Reviews With its PowerShot TX1, which includes a 10x optical zoom lens, 7.1-megapixel CCD sensor, optical image stabilisation, face detection and the capability to record high-definition 1,280x720-pixel video at 30 frames per second, Canon was definitely...

Samsung SP-50L7HX review
Reviews While the premium design of the SP-50L7HX and its resulting price might fly in the face of the latter argument, it's still an impressive feat of style, features and performance. Luckily, Samsung's unique flair stretches to the rest of the package...

Fujifilm FinePix S6500fd review
Reviews The S6500fd was the first camera to feature the now ubiquitous face detection. The question is whether this, the first camera to include face detection, has been left behind by newer models. The 6-megapixel Fujifilm FinePix S6500fd isn't the...

Nikon Coolpix S1 review
Reviews This Nikon's strong points are abundant scene modes, a 3x zoom lens that doesn't protrude during use, a postshot fix that automatically brightens dark backgrounds, and a clever Face-Priority autofocus mode that ensures that the closest human to...

Sony Ericsson MBW-150 Music Edition watch review
Reviews They all share the traditional rounded face design and are waterproof to a depth of 30 metres, but come in different colour schemes and with different straps. To charge the watch, you attach a plastic spring-loaded clamp that snaps into place on...

PURE Digital Chronos iDock review
Reviews DesignPURE's traditional silver plastic buttons sit on the face of the iDock below a blue-ish LCD display and a big fat snooze button. Metallic mesh-covered speakers sit either side of said face, resulting in true stereo -- not a common feature of...

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W55 review
Reviews It's the same 7-megapixel, 38mm-to-114mm-equivalent 3x zoom camera with an attractive, brushed-metal face and a larger, 64mm (2.5-inch) LCD screen. Behind the pretty face hides a blocky, half-plastic compact camera that's built more for ease of use...

Philips SA2820 review
Reviews Each edge of this square-shaped face acts as a navigational button à la iRiver Clix -- a questionable move, since the player picks up fingerprints like a forensics expert. With its tiny dot matrix OLED screen switched off, the SA2820's highly...

Gear4 Duo review
Reviews The Duo is essentially a large subwoofer, with a pair of mid-range drivers and tweeters mounted into a removable face plate. Gear4's thinking is that you'll leave the sub plugged in, but when you want your music to come with you, simply pick up the...
