Reviews

  • Sennheiser PXC 310 headset

    Noise-cancelling headphones are a necessity for any frequent flyer, and if you have the money, the PXC 310 is an excellent example of what you'll need.

  • Apple MacBook (Spring 2009)

    The Apple MacBook may look the same as before, but it's had a Spring makeover and is now a better deal than ever.

  • Philips SHL8800

    The funky replaceable covers, a tight fit and overwhelming mid-bass mean the Philips SHL8800 aren't the best headphones for the money.

  • Sennheiser HD 438

    The HD 438 just falls shy of a fully immersive audio experience, but these mid-range headphones are very comfortable for the home listener.

  • Creative Zen X-Fi2 32GB

    The Creative Zen X-Fi2 is the company's first touchscreen MP3 player which includes expandable storage and native support for FLAC.

  • Philips GoGear Mix (4GB)

    The GoGear Mix is exactly what people are looking for in an MP3 player. It's easy to load with music, simple to operate and a pleasure to listen to.

  • Philips GoGear Aria (8GB)

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

  • Philips DC350 iPod Dock

    The DC350 features a wide-range of connectivity options, but is far too expensive for the low quality sound it produces.
