Microsoft Xbox 360 Slim review

The Xbox 360 Slim is the best console on the market today. It improves on its predecessors with a slick design, reduced fan noise and a generous hard-drive size. Its chassis collects fingerprints like an obsessed forensic scientist, but this machine offers really good value for money Read more

Microsoft Xbox 360 HD DVD drive review

If you want to watch hi-def DVD movies this Christmas, you've got two options: buy a £1,000 Blu-ray player or this £130 add-on for the Xbox 360. It plays HD DVDs through the console, and outputs images of a comparable quality to the very expensive alternatives Read more

Microsoft LifeCam VX-5000 review

The Microsoft LifeCam VX-5000 provides a welcome update over last year's LifeCam webcams. The new, bendy design allows for stable positioning on a thin laptop lid, LCD monitor or desk. Its improved image sensor helps the cam do well in low light and with fast-moving objects Read more

There's not much to complain about when it comes to the Wireless Mobile Mouse 4000. It's equally suited to both right- and left-handed users, its wireless connectivity reduces cable clutter, and Microsoft's BlueTrack technology means it scrolls beautifully on almost any surface Read more

Microsoft Wireless Mouse 2000 review

The Wireless Mouse 2000 is affordable and can track on almost any surface, thanks to Microsoft's BlueTrack technology. We'd prefer the scroll wheel to be slightly less slippery, but this comfortable, travel-friendly mouse deserves consideration if you're seeking a new pointer Read more

Microsoft Xbox 360 Kinect review

You'll need plenty of space to use Microsoft's Kinect motion-gaming system, but it's just about the most fun you can have with your hands free. It's not accurate enough to win over hard-core gamers, but it's simple and hugely entertaining. Read more

Microsoft Zune (30GB) review

This is a different kind of portable media player: one that integrates wireless technology for Zune-to-Zune sharing of files, and one that works within an iTunes-like closed Zune Marketplace ecosystem. It has some weaknesses, notably over format support, but the Zune is a winner and its future is a bright one Read more
