Reviews

  • Razer Mamba

    The Razer Mamba provides unmatched precision, whether it's connected directly to your PC or set free in wireless mode, but due to its cost, it's likely to appeal only to the most dedicated of gamers.

  • AMD Phenom II X4 955 Black Edition

    While the higher power consumption is a slight concern, the X4 955 proves that AMD is back in the performance game and ready to play hard ball. Bring on the next generation.

  • Sony VPLHW10 SXRD Home Theatre Projector

    Sony's VPLHW10, the company's least expensive SXRD projector yet, proves itself a very good performer for the price, and therefore excellent value.

  • Apple iMac (20-inch, 2.4GHz)

    Apple's smaller-scale iMac remains our favourite all-in-one. And while its looks, its ease of use, and its performance are all selling points, Windows PCs are starting to catch up (at least with the latter).

  • HP Deskjet D4360 Colour Inkjet Printer

    The Deskjet D4360 justifies its asking price nicely. At the same time, you do get exactly what you pay for.

  • Dell Latitude E6500

    The Dell Latitude E is a glimpse into the future of laptops. With high expandability, configurable and a strong design, it should suit most corporate environments.

  • Mitsubishi HC4900

    Mitsubishi pushes the entry level price point of 1080p projectors even lower with the HC4900. It's a very solid contender that's made all the more appealing by its asking price.

  • Panasonic HDC-SD5

    The Panasonic HDC-SD5 delivers fantastic HD video and accessible but clever features in a petite package — we just wish it had more memory.
