Panasonic DMR-BS750 review

We have no idea how Panasonic has managed it, but a box this size has surely never done so many things before. The BS750 lets you watch free high-definition broadcasts, record them to Blu-ray disc and play Blu-ray movies and all their cool online features. You can even watch YouTube. The only problem: the price Read more

Panasonic DMR-EX83 review

The DMR-EX83 is a thoroughly decent Freeview PVR that can record either to its 250GB hard drive or to DVDs, so you can take your recordings on the road. It can't record Freeview HD broadcasts, but its picture quality is excellent, its design is appealing and it's extremely easy to use Read more

Dual-tuner Freeview PVRs

When Freeview PVRs arrived, it was easy to see how the ability to pause live TV and record to a hard drive would revolutionise the way we watch TV. The first-generation devices only had one tuner though, and hence the ability to only record and watch one channel. When dual tuner devices arrived, the dream was finally realised -- you could record one channel to the hard drive while watching another Read more

Panasonic DMR-EX85 review

The EX85 is Panasonic's most comprehensively equipped digital recorder. It's crammed with more recording and playback features than you can imagine, including an enormous 250GB hard drive, universal disc compatibility and integrated video scaling.

It's playback time: Freeview hard-drive recorders

If you've not yet made the upgrade to Freeview, you should think about spending that little bit more and buying an integrated recorder. These devices don't just record, they also enable you to pause live TV, rewind through what you've been watching and cut out the ad breaks... Read more

Panasonic DMR-EX88 review

The Panasonic DMR-EX88 comes with a high-end price tag, but its features are certainly up to scratch. A Freeview recorder PVR with a massive 400GB hard drive and a DVD recorder built in, it will also play Xvid and DivX files and upscale your DVDs. That should clear out some space under the TV Read more

Panasonic TUCTH100 review

Panasonic's first stab at a Freeview recorder doesn't pull any punches -- it features two tuners, a wonderful interface and good connectivity. But its 80GB hard drive isn't overwhelmingly large, and at £80 more than the competition, its value credentials are in doubt Read more
