Panasonic DMR-EX75 review

Panasonic's DMR-EX75 features a 160GB hard drive and compatibility with all disc formats -- in a single system. This versatility is complemented by excellent usability and great quality images, particularly when upscaled to high definition and output to an HD Ready TV through HDMI. The only drawbacks are the steep price and the single digital tuner Read more

Panasonic DMR-EX89 review

The DMR-EX89 Freeview personal video recorder is pricey, although, if you can afford it, we doubt you'll be disappointed. We'd like to see a second Freeview tuner included, but this machine looks good and offers plenty of flexibility, letting you record to both DVDs and its 400GB hard drive 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. The impressive on-paper specification is supported by quality performance in practice 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

Toshiba RD-85DT review

The RD-85DT features a timeless, stylish design with a decent specification that includes an integrated Freeview tuner -- fast becoming an essential in this market. Connectivity could be better, however -- there's no DV input for camcorder users or an HDMI digital output for upscaled DVD Read more

Humax PVR-9200TB and 9200TS review

Humax has replaced its popular 9200T PVR with the 9200TB and 9200TS. These new, improved models now come in two colours and qualify as 'Freeview Playback' PVRs, meaning they include certain features such as dual tuners and the ability to pause live TV Read more

Panasonic DMR-EX79 review

The DMR-EX79 is one of the better Freeview personal video recorders out there. We wish it were cheaper and sported a second Freeview tuner, but it's a sturdy machine that offers plenty of recording flexibility thanks to its 250GB hard drive and DVD writing capability Read more
