Reviews

  • Apple iMac 27-inch (Core 2 Duo 3.06GHz)

    Behind its expansive display, Apple has packed one of the fastest all-in-ones available, and added a few useful extras to sweeten the deal.

  • Apple Magic Mouse

    The Magic Mouse introduces some new innovations, but its long-term comfort and lack of customisability puts it behind the competition.

  • Mophie Juice Pack Air

    It costs a pretty penny, but for people who need more juice in their iPhone, the Juice Pack Air is worth every cent.

  • Philips GoGear Aria (8GB)

    The GoGear Aria may be cheaper than a comparable iPod Nano, but it's leagues behind in terms of quality.

  • Fake iPod Nano (4th generation)

    If it wasn't for the glitchy software and sub-standard battery life, the fake iPod Nano might have been almost as good as the real thing.

  • Microsoft Security Essentials

    Microsoft Security Essentials is recommended for those who want something to set and ignore, but users who want more robust configuration choices or don't want to contribute to the cloud should look elsewhere.

  • Apple iPod Classic 160GB

    The iPod Classic refines the formula that put the iPod on the map. Few can match its combination of storage capacity, battery life and intuitive user interface.

  • Apple iPod Nano (5th generation)

    Not sure which new iPod to choose? The Nano's fifth incarnation wins hands down, with FM tuner and video camera being more than just cheap gimmicks.
