Panasonic Viera VT20 (TX-P46VT20) review

Panasonic still delivers the best 3D in town. Perhaps more importantly, the Viera TX-P46VT20 is a knockout 2D set. It's extremely well-equipped, with picture quality that movie fans will love. Read more

Panasonic DMP-BD35 review

Quite simply, this is one of the most sensibly priced and best-performing Blu-ray players on the market. With the BD35, Panasonic is proving that stand-alone players can offer decent performance and other advantages such as lower power consumption, nearly silent operation and a much more sensible form factor Read more

Sky+HD 1TB review

The Sky+HD 1TB satellite box is a peach of a PVR. A huge hard drive means you no longer have to ration your recordings and the interface is slick and easy to use. With 3D compatibility and Sky's Anytime+ video-on-demand service just around the corner, it's a must-have upgrade for any self-respecting hi-def obsessive. Read more

Philips 9000 LED Pro (40PFL9704H/12) review

At around £1,800, we think the 40-inch, 1080p, LED-backlit 40PFL9704H/12 LCD TV is too expensive, but, as long as you're good friends with your bank manager, we're happy to recommend this set. Its construction, picture and sound quality, and feature set all scream class Read more

Sony BDP-S470 review

Although the 3D-capable Sony BDP-S470 isn't really worth considering unless you have a 3D TV, it's still a top-notch Blu-ray player, at a very reasonable price. Read more

Panasonic Viera VT20 (TX-P50VT20B) review

The 50-inch, 1080p, 3D-ready Viera TX-P50VT20B is Panasonic's best plasma TV so far. Its high-definition pictures offer drool-inducing levels of detail, its black levels are superb and its 3D performance is also good.

Panasonic Viera TH-46PZ81 (freesat) review

The Panasonic Viera TH-46PZ81 is the first TV to include a built-in freesat receiver. With Freeview and analogue tuners on board, this tri-tuner plasma is genuinely a landmark product. You'll find this well-specced screen also boasts the excellent picture quality you'd expect from a Panasonic Read more
