Reviews

  • Dell Inspiron 15

    The Dell Inspiron 15 is likely the best bang for buck you'll get for AU$1000, from its battery life to its upgrade options. We do miss the numpad, but the rest is perfect for the budget-conscious user.

  • Toshiba Satellite L500D

    We like the Toshiba Satellite L500D, it's amazing value for its price. However, we think it's worth paying the extra AU$200 for the version with the less power hungry GPU.

  • Sony Ericsson S312

    Though its spec sheet is a little thin, the S312 looks like it has the solid build of an excellent low-end mobile.

  • Sony Ericsson T303

    As far as small phones go, the T303 is solid and attractive. Unfortunately it lacks features such as an expandable memory slot and 3G network compatibility.

  • LG Shine Bar (KE770)

    The Shine Bar shares the celebrity good-looks of its parent phone, but a few basic flaws hold it back from being truly desirable, even for the budget price tag.

  • Sony Ericsson K660i

    The K660i shares most of its specs with budget-priced phones, with the addition of HSDPA data speeds, and minus the budget price tag.

  • Toshiba Satellite M200 (Core 2 Duo 1.5GHz, 1GB RAM)

    Toshiba's M200 feels great, but doesn't stand out against an oncoming slew of budget competitors.

  • Sagem my411x

    Poor call quality ruins an otherwise sexy and affordable handset.

  • Budget shopping tips: Printers

    Shopping for a budget printer doesn't have to be an exercise in anger management and self-abasement. Contrary to the stigma, many printers can produce great-quality photos and documents without breaking the bank or eating up expensive consumables.
