Reviews

  • Virgin Mobile Broadband WiFi modem

    This WiFi modem/router works well and provides great value on some plans, but we're still left wanting better performance out of Virgin Mobile's actual broadband.

  • Nokia E52

    At first sight the Nokia E52 won't set your heart racing, but its excellent battery life and ease of use make it a smartphone worthy of consideration.

  • 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.

  • Optus E1762 USB Modem

    The hardware performs its part of the equation just fine, but if you're considering Optus' wireless broadband make sure you take advantage of its seven-day trial period.

  • Nokia 6700

    The Nokia 6700 Classic is not a fancy-pants smartphone, but its high quality, 5-megapixel camera and brilliant screen help make this phone a front-runner in the mid-range market.

  • 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.

  • Nokia N85

    The Nokia N85 is another solid N-series phone but if you're looking for something different this won't be your bag.
