Reviews

  • Apple MacBook Pro (13-inch, June 2009)

    Previously known as the MacBook, Apple's basic 13-inch aluminium unibody laptop has been promoted to the "Pro" series, all while adding features and cutting the base price.

  • Asus G71

    The G71 is an excellent system. It's expensive, and there's a few missteps Asus has made with hardware configuration, bling and the inclusion of a 32-bit version of Windows, but by and large with this system you get what you pay for — assuming your pockets are deep enough.

  • Cowon S9

    The Cowon S9 is a sexy-looking gadget with exceptional audio and video quality, but its construction quality and user interface pale in comparison to the competition.

  • Sony Ericsson W595 Walkman

    This is a solid phone, aside from its lack of a real headphone socket. But if you're expecting anything radically new, you might want to wait a little while for Sony Ericsson to start innovating before you upgrade.

  • Olympus Mju 1060

    Whether you're after a little sophistication or a simple camera, the Olympus Mju 1060 delivers both in a stylish package. Its long zoom range will give it a leg up on many 10-megapixel competitors in its price range too.

  • iRiver Spinn

    There's no doubt the Spinn is a decent player, with great audio format support, a superb screen for watching video and excellent sound quality — but it's not without its share of issues.

  • Apple iPod Touch (2nd generation)

    If you've been holding back, now is the time: the second-gen Touch is an excellent media player, and the addition of third-party apps extends the fun for everyone, no matter where your interests lie.

  • Creative TravelSound i50

    The Creative TravelSound i50 is a fine choice for iPod Shuffle owners looking for a powerful portable speaker that integrates the player seamlessly, but there are better sounding options out there.

  • Creative MuVo T200 is all thumbs

    Thought USB thumb drive MP3 players were on their way out? Think again. Creative has released the MuVo T200, a 4GB model that harks back to the days of the original iPod Shuffle.

  • Is Foleo Palm's folly?

    Palm's bid to reinvent mobile computing looks an awful lot like the current state of mobile computing, but with less horsepower.

  • Miles ahead of the true video iPod

    While we impatiently await the arrival of the latest iPod, has it already been surpassed by other manufacturers' efforts?

  • Creative Zen Vision:M

    A study in cool, Creative Zen Vision:M gives the iPod a run for its money.
