Reviews

  • Logitech Rechargeable Speaker S315i

    The Logitech Rechargeable Speaker S315i offers good sound quality in a compact, durable package; it's a solid choice for iPod owners who are constantly on the go.

  • Sony Ericsson Satio

    There are a few trade-offs, but overall we're very impressed. The Satio sports a sharp, responsive touchscreen and is possibly the year's best camera phone.

  • Nokia 6720 Classic

    With so many excellent phones to choose from, Nokia hasn't done nearly enough to make the 6720 desirable. It does the basics well, but struggles to justify its price.

  • Samsung HD Icon

    If you have a desktop hard drive full of media files that you wish you could take with you on the train to work, there is no better phone than the HD Icon.

  • Trend Micro AntiVirus plus AntiSpyware 2010

    Going by older detection and removal numbers, Trend Micro AntiVirus plus AntiSpyware offers competent if basic security protection. However, so do many free competitors. This year, we recommend giving Trend Micro AntiVirus plus AntiSpyware 2010 a pass.

  • Trend Micro Internet Security Pro 2010

    Trend Micro Internet Security Pro's broad feature set combined with its look and feel make it a serious contender, but questionable efficacy and middling performance mean it's a program we're not recommending for this year.

  • Virgin VMX

    The VMX is a phone with many shortcomings, but most of these are outweighed by the AU$99 price tag. For most people who just need the basics, the VMX will do the trick.

  • Sony Ericsson C903

    The Sony Ericsson C903 blew our minds with its excellent photo quality. Its plastic-y body and lack of Wi-Fi connectivity reflect its low price, but it performs like a more expensive model.
