Reviews

  • Little King's Story

    This deep, challenging and beautiful RTS-RPG hybrid is cleverly disguised as a child-friendly introduction to the strategy genre.

  • BenQ Joybee GP1

    The BenQ Joybee GP1 is a small and impressive LED pico-projector, but you'll pay handsomely for the "wow" factor.

  • Sony Vaio W

    Attempting to create a premium-priced version of a netbook, Sony has added an HD display to the Vaio W. It's an attractive step-up package, but the internal components are the same as are in cheaper models.

  • Canon IXUS 120 IS

    This is a great little compact camera equipped with pretty much everything you could ask for, like HD video and a stylish body, so we've awarded it our Editors' Choice award.

  • Canon IXUS 200 IS

    Pairing a pretty touchscreen interface with a competent camera is always a good move, but we're a bit stuck as to what the 200 IS actually is: a touchscreen or a conventional compact.

  • Ricoh GR Digital III

    Packed full of features, the Ricoh GR Digital III won't appeal to every photographer, but for those looking for a fixed focal-length camera and something to complement a digital SLR, it's a great companion piece.

  • Toshiba Satellite U500

    Toshiba's Satellite U500 wants to be portable and powerful, which has a negative impact on both the battery life and the weight. Still, if you need power in a petite package, the U500 might do it for you.

  • Olympus E-P1

    Though it's rather expensive, we can't help adoring the E-P1. The pictures it takes with the included lenses are mostly great, just don't expect compact-like features such as a viewfinder and flash to be included.
