Reviews

  • Navman MY500XT

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

  • Brutal Legend

    This amazing tribute to metal delivers a hugely entertaining gaming experience despite missing a few chords.

  • Sygic Mobile Maps for iPhone

    With its latest update, Mobile Maps has become our favourite iPhone nav app, but we still have reservations about using the iPhone as a GPS navigator.

  • TomTom for iPhone

    With the highest price, fewest features and the same ol' iPhone nav problems, TomTom's app is hard to recommend.

  • Mio A430

    It may be a frill-free zone, but the Mio A430 offers plenty of screen girth for the money. Pity then that the camera and school zone warnings are nigh on useless.

  • Navigon MobileNavigator for iPhone

    With the addition of text-to-speech and the squishing of a few previous bugs, Navigon's MobileNavigator makes sense for the occasional nav use. We still have some reservations about the whole iPhone nav experience, though.

  • Gran Turismo 5

    We know now that it's scheduled for release in Japan in March 2010, so we headed down to creator Kazunori Yamauchi's offices to have a chat about what we can expect from his new baby.

  • Brother MFC-990CW

    The Brother MFC-990CW is a speedy, fully capable all-in-one device that earns our recommendation for an individual or a family that will make use of its touchscreen and telephone/answering machine.
