Reviews

  • Uniden Trax 5000

    The Trax 5000 is not without its faults but its size and legibility make a compelling case.

  • Laser DVBT-MP32 Multimedia Plus

    It's not the prettiest PMP on the block, but the inclusion of digital TV support makes the MP32 a great little gadget.

  • Canon Legria HF20

    As far as mid-range camcorders go, there's not much to fault the Canon Legria HF20 for; the image quality is good, the autofocus speedy and feature list fairly full.

  • Flip MinoHD

    Although ultimate image quality and features are sacrificed on the altar of price and pocketability, the MinoHD should be on casual videographers shortlists.

  • HTC Tattoo

    If you want an affordable Android smartphone, the Tattoo will fit the bill. Power users should look elsewhere.

  • Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ35

    The FZ35 should be at the top of any potential superzoom buyer's list, with a fully featured specification sheet and good image quality.

  • Kogan Blu-ray Player BD 2.0

    The renewed Kogan Blu-ray player is a bargain, with many of the niceties of much more expensive players but you can't expect video precision for the price.

  • Navman MY500XT

    Improved, but still deeply flawed. We'd suggest checking out the lesser fruit from the Navman tree first.
