Flip Video Ultra review

Reviews This is a good idea and is the Flip's unique selling point, but it does mean that if you have awkwardly-placed USB sockets on your computer, the Flip is resting its weight on the arm. The arrival of assorted clones demonstrates the phenomenal...

Sony Ericsson W350i review

Reviews In 1999, Ericsson brought out the classic -- and popular -- T28 flip phone. When open, the flip panel reveals an easy-to-use glossy keypad comprising fairly large, smooth buttons. A small annoyance: while the Walkman buttons on the front of the...

Reviews With its 14-megapixel CCD, flip-up LCD, sensor-shift image stabiliser and built-in wireless flash controller, the feature-packed Sony Alpha DSLR-A350 seems like a cornucopia of photographic goodness for the budget shopper.

Nokia 6131 review

Reviews There's also a button on the right side of the hinge that lets you flip the phone open, in case you find opening clamshells difficult with only one hand. This does make using the phone easier, since you don't need to use two hands to open the flip...

T-Mobile Sidekick 3 review

Reviews Despite a neat switchblade flip-out action, the 66mm (2.6-inch) screen is seriously under-pixelled for today's multimedia world, particularly on a phone that's shooting for heavy Web users. If you want to make a phone call to a new number not...

Canon PowerShot A640 review

Reviews You can flip and twist it to help frame odd-angled shots or fold it against the camera for a more traditional feel. It's a handy feature, as the screen can tilt up for shooting at chest level, tilt down for shooting over crowds, or even flip all...

Sony Ericsson P1i review

Reviews Unlike the older smart phones in the P series, this one does away with the flip-down keypad. Essentially the handset is an update of the P990i, but this new model differs in a number of ways, not least of which is the dumping of the P990i's flip-up...

Panasonic Lumix DMC-L10 review

Reviews It's on the small side, has an articulated LCD that can flip out to the left of the camera and swivel 270 degrees, live-view shooting and its control buttons are laid out a lot like a superzoom or compact camera.

Hitachi DZ-HS500 review

Reviews It's the standard camcorder form factor, with viewfinder, hand grip and flip-out 69mm (2.7-inch) LCD screen. When you flip out the 69mm (2.7-inch) LCD screen to film yourself, the image will invert and you see the right way up

Canon PowerShot A650 IS review

Reviews In fact, were it not for a slightly different control scheme, a smaller flip-out LCD, and lack of raw file support, the A650 IS would be nearly identical to Canon's pricier midrange camera. The camera's large design also leaves enough space for the...
