Reviews

  • Sony Ericsson S312

    Though its spec sheet is a little thin, the S312 looks like it has the solid build of an excellent low-end mobile.

  • Brother MFC-6490CW

    We have to commend Brother for breaking new ground with the world's first A3 inkjet multifunction. It's not at all perfect but, for those in the market for a large format printer, it may just meet your requirements.

  • Sony Ericsson T303

    As far as small phones go, the T303 is solid and attractive. Unfortunately it lacks features such as an expandable memory slot and 3G network compatibility.

  • LG Shine Bar (KE770)

    The Shine Bar shares the celebrity good-looks of its parent phone, but a few basic flaws hold it back from being truly desirable, even for the budget price tag.

  • Sony Ericsson K660i

    The K660i shares most of its specs with budget-priced phones, with the addition of HSDPA data speeds, and minus the budget price tag.

  • Cowon iAudio A3 (60GB)

    With its unrivalled screen and codec support, its direct recording capabilities and its ability to playback DVD video files without transcoding, Cowon's A3 is a well-priced behemoth for portable video lovers.

  • Toshiba Satellite M200 (Core 2 Duo 1.5GHz, 1GB RAM)

    Toshiba's M200 feels great, but doesn't stand out against an oncoming slew of budget competitors.

  • Sagem my411x

    Poor call quality ruins an otherwise sexy and affordable handset.
