Thomson DTI 6300-16: Top Up your television

Crave Dual-tuner PVRs aren't new, but what this Thomson box offers is access to Top Up TV Anytime. IMUpdate: A full review of the Thomson DTI 6300-16 is now live. We miss loads of stuff on TV. It's not our fault, there's a lot on our plate and we go out...

Thomson 32LB120S4U review

Reviews It looks as if it might be worth at least £2,000, especially when it's hung on the wall (even if the more knowledgeable of you out there will be able to guess otherwise thanks to the Thomson badge). Things are slightly ameliorated by the component...

Thomson Lyra PDP2860 review

Reviews Thomson has finally released the personal video player that it announced almost a year ago: the 20GB Lyra PDP2860. If you plan on going this route, you'd better know how to convert between various video codecs using, say, VirtualDub; unlike Archos...

Thomson DHD4000 review

Reviews It's these little features, and the ability to record radio, that make the Thomson DHD4000 not only a fantastically designed piece of consumer electronics, but also one that fundamentally changes the way you watch TV.

Thomson DTI 6300-16 review

Reviews Indeed, the Thomson DTI 6300-16 has been reduced to £99, with a Top Up TV starter pack, which increases the amount of TV you can receive. The Thomson makes use of a slightly enhanced guide that has programme information up to 14 days ahead.

Dual-tuner Freeview PVRs

Reviews Thomson's DHD4000 is one of those products that's strong enough not to have warranted an update, despite being available for well over a year. Still, if you've got an eye for a bargain, you should be able to shop around and find the Thomson box...

It's playback time: Freeview hard-drive recorders

Reviews Thomson's £160 take on this idea is the oldest here, but like the iPod, its design has stood the test of time. Sagem's and Panasonic's boxes offer 80GB, which is still not massive in this day and age, so if you're going to replace the hard drive...

LCD TVs: Now's the time to grab a bargain

Reviews Thomson's 32LB120S4U is another LCD from the French giant. The flat-screen era is finally becoming a reality as LCDs become more affordable and break the magic sub-£1,000 barrier. They also improve dramatically with each successive generation.

Movies on the go: portable video players

Reviews Thomson's Lyra series had some success in the music arena before the iPod arrived, and now it's having a crack at the video market. Boring journeys should be a thing of the past, thanks to the wide range of portable video players on the market.

DHD4000: dual in Thomson's crown

Crave Count us impressed -- the Thomson DHD4000 is our new favourite Freeview hard disk recorder. The Thomson DHD4000 is so good that we've FINALLY managed to pick up Channel 4 in our signal-sapping office block.

Panasonic TUCTH100 review

Reviews FeaturesLet's not forget the cost of Panasonic's TUCTH100 box in relation to its competitors, so for £240 -- £80 more than Thomson and Sagem's efforts -- we should be expecting something special when it comes to features.

Sagem PVR6280T review
