Reviews
-
Altec Lansing inMotion Max
For its price, the inMotion Max is a very decent iPhone-compatible speaker dock. It makes up for the lack of features with decent audio quality and portability.
-
Brother MFC-440CN
The Brother MFC-440CN is a very flexible multifunction printer well suited to light use in a home or small office.
-
Lexmark X3550
On the surface, the X3550 appears to be a budget workhorse of a printer with the enticing option of wireless connectivity. It's a pity then, that the wireless is so expensive to include, and the printer itself so slow.
-
Telstra F850
The bottom line: The Telstra F850 offers a relatively inexpensive way to jump aboard the carrier's Next-G platform, as long as you don't mind travelling in the slow lane. Read our Australian review.
-
Samsung D600
Samsung's D500 was voted the best mobile handset of 2005 by the GSM association. Can the upgraded D600 outdo it in 2006?
-
Sony Ericsson K750i
We can barely fault the 2-megapixel K750i from Sony Ericsson, which is a very compelling and easy-to-use handset for mobile users looking to upgrade.
-
Wharfedale Diamond 9.5 speakers
We were bowled over by the Diamond 9.5's combination of extraordinary value, build, and sound quality.
-
Wharfedale Diamond SW150
This relatively inexpensive Brit subwoofer mates well with other Wharfedale speakers to produce music, but its home-theatre punch isn't as dramatic as that of some other subs.
