Sagem Axium HD-L32T review

The 32-inch HD-L32T can display photos from a memory card, packs Virtual Dolby Surround technology and is compatible with high-definition TV, as well as having an attractive design, a wide selection of features and reasonably solid picture quality. But there are better, cheaper models out there Read more

Panasonic Viera TH37PV500 review

This Viera may well be expensive, but you're buying a TV that's been crafted with loving care. The image quality is startlingly good -- anyone who had written plasma off should be pleasantly surprised by the colour and contrast depth of this brand-new panel Read more

Pioneer DV-989 review

With DVD players available for as little as £20, the £750 tag on Pioneer's flagship DV-989 is certain to raise eyebrows. But if you're an avid enthusiast with a high-end TV and sound system there are few players better equipped for premier performance Read more

Flat screens for Valentines

The origin of Valentine's Day has many possible explanations -- many assume that it honours St. Valentine, a Roman who was martyred for refusing to give up Christianity. The real meaning of Valentine's Day has been diluted thanks to millions of red roses and heart-shaped balloons, so why not be original this year and treat that special someone to a huge flat-screen TV?

Panasonic DMR-EH80V review

Panasonic's DVD recorders are renowned for ease-of-use, boding well for a machine that dares to combine DVD, hard drive and VHS recording. While recorders that feature the former two are commonplace, the addition of VHS is relatively rare and a useful function for many Read more

Toshiba 37WLT58 review

A huge improvement on its previous iteration, this 37-inch Toshiba LCD offers a wealth of features and connectivity -- including, notably, two HDMI inputs -- but an uninspiring design and unexceptional picture quality let the side down. For its size and spec, though, it's very good value Read more

InFocus ScreenPlay 7210 review

The mid-range 7210's picture quality is excellent, with rich colours and smooth imaging, especially through the HDMI or component inputs. The projector is mundanely designed and noisy at times, but if you're looking for something to go at the centre of your home-cinema setup, this will do your movie viewing proud Read more

Philips HTS8000S review

Every part of the HTS8000S system has been placed on a strict diet by Philips -- the subwoofer can be hung on the wall, the DVD player is a unique vertical design and the speakers could easily be tucked away on a bookshelf. Judged as a limited 2.1 system, it performs well and provides excellent video quality 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

Sony KDF-E50A12U review

Sony's KDF-E50A12U is a huge 50-inch rear-projection screen that claims to take up the same corner space as a 42-inch plasma -- and it costs considerably less. With a future-proof specification and a surprisingly creditable picture, this is an ideal alternative to plasma for large-screen enthusiasts on a budget Read more
