Reviews

  • Pro Evolution Soccer 2010

    This year's Pro Evo improves upon its predecessor in some key areas, but it does little else to keep up with the competition.

  • Philips GoGear Aria (8GB)

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

  • Apple iPod Nano (5th generation)

    Not sure which new iPod to choose? The Nano's fifth incarnation wins hands down, with FM tuner and video camera being more than just cheap gimmicks.

  • Bang & Olufsen A8 Earphones

    The original and still the best, the Bang & Olufsen A8 Earphones sound good and look great, but if you're looking for an exciting result these aren't for you.

  • Apple iPhone 3GS (32GB)

    The iPhone 3GS is faster and we appreciate the new features and extended battery life, but call quality and 3G reception still need improvement.

  • Creative Aurvana Air

    The Creative Aurvana Air is a beautiful looking and sounding set of headphones, but it's expensive and not suited to public transport.

  • Creative Zen X-Fi 8GB

    The Creative Zen X-Fi 8GB is the same as the 16GB and 32GB versions of the player except it lacks Wi-Fi capability.

  • Samsung Omnia

    In terms of features the Omnia stands out as one of the best smartphones to date. It's a shame this doesn't translate into a phone we'd enjoy using from day to day.
