Reviews

Sony STRDA5500ES

The Sony STRDA5500ES is a very good 7.1 receiver featuring internet radio and is best suited to people who have a large collection of vinyl or CDs.
Sony STR-DN1000

The Sony STR-DN1000 offers solid sound and basic AV receiver features at a bargain price, but it's not nearly as good as last year's STR-DG920.
Sharp LC32D77X

The Sharp LC32D77X is quite an exceptional 32-inch television, it's best with 1080p content but also plays standard-definition content quite well.
LG Watch Phone GD910

The GD910 certainly has wow-factor. It looks like a watch but performs well as a mobile phone cum messenger. Sadly, the high price really dents the appeal of this wonderful gadget.
Sony Cyber-shot DSC-WX1

The WX1 is an excellent compact camera with a great feature set and speedy performance, but mixed photo quality makes it miss the mark.
Denon AVR-790

The Denon AVR-790 is a fully featured midrange AV receiver with standout upconverted video quality, although it's held back by some subpar design issues and average sound quality.
Nikon Coolpix S70

The S70 is a good stylish compact with the added bonus of an OLED touchscreen, but faces stiff competition from cheaper and equally competent cameras.
HP 2159m

HP's 21.5-inch monitor is fairly average for its class — however, in the face of its limitations, the price doesn't add up.
