Touch Screen Fun

Advantages: Original, nice looking, sturdy
Disadvantages: Limited range of games

...screen. It really is excellent, and makes the DS worth the money. It is accurate, generally easy to control and the screen doesn't scratch permanently (you do get temporary scratches, but these rub off easily). There is a handy holder for the stylus on the side so it'll be quite difficult to lose it. There is also a D-Pad and four buttons for non-touch screen games, which are clear and easy to use. Another control is the microphone - I have only used this for 'blowing' games, not 'talking' games, however my experience of it is negative. It doesn't work, and you'll give yourself a nasty headache trying to blow into it anyway. -Extras- The range of extras are things like an alarm, a Wi-Fi chatroom and a customisable profile. You can also change the colour of the start-up screen to suit your tastes. These extras are neat, but nothing to...

Review of Nintendo DS Lite

Touch Magic

Advantages: Great sound quality, great applications
Disadvantages: Battery Life, Fingerprints, could be better

...more thicker. I am glad they kept it small and thin though. The screen is 3.5? LCD colour display. The rest of the IPod at the IPod on the front is a very strong black, until you get your muggy finger prints on it. There is only 1 button on the front of the IPod, this button is the button you press to bring you back to the home page each time you need to. There is only four buttons on the whole IPod, the button on the front of the IPod, the on/off switch on the top of the IPod, and then, the volume buttons at the side of the IPod. They have kept the number of buttons very small, which is brilliant. The back of the IPod is just like every other IPod I?ve ever seen, well other than the IPod shuffle. It?s a nice silver colour and is almost like a mirror, which is great for us girls, and even boys. However, one of the problems I found...

Review of Apple iPod touch 8 GB

iTouch!

Advantages: Packed with applications, very handy and easy to use.
Disadvantages: Keyboard is hard to use, no flash player and not very durable without a case.

...such as Dailymotion. This, obviously, is a drawback. Hopefully, Apple will look into sorting this out for future versions. Other than that, the Safari browser is very good. It's fairly quick, like other browsers, it depends on your connection speed as to how fast your pages load. The iTunes store is a great inclusion on the device. I like the idea that you can be sitting out with your friends and if someone mentions a good song or you hear a good song then you can just access your iTunes and purchase the song (provided your in a wi-fi hotspot). It's really good. You can then listen to it using the iPod feature, which is what the device is built around. But the other functions kind of put the iPod section into the shadows. The touch screen is very responsive and so far, using my brothers 8GB version, I haven't encountered any problems...

Review of Apple iPod touch 8 GB

iTouch

Advantages: Brilliant
Disadvantages: Nono

...sleek bit of equipment, the iPod is really beautiful looking and the screen is just big enough So I bought them, what I didn't know is that by doing so I am now the coolest sister ever apparently. I have never seen two teenagers smile so much and say thank you so much. Now the first stage was obviously setting them up. There are many different things that you need to set up, the first thing we did was make sure that the iTouch was connected, I didn't realise that when you have one of these, you can connect anyway where there is WiFi, we have also learnt that if we would like to pay £5 a month, we can be connected anywhere, which i think is bloody excellant. There's no point being connected and yo don't know what for, the iTouch comes with a small selection of standard fuctions, one is youtube, one is google and there is another one...

Touche Eclat? Touche Eme!

Advantages: Excellent coverage, Easy to apply
Disadvantages: Price can be a put off

...I have never bought any Yves Saint Laurent products in the past, I've always been tempted by the shiny displays in my local Boots and Debenhams but the price has always put me off. Why pay £20ish for something you buy for £4 in a cheaper brand?! After actually trying this product I am converted and will definately be purchasing this in the future! I was recently lucky enough to be sent not 1 but 2 Touche Eclats for free to trial and give my opinion on. I did a quick google search and the cheapest I could have purchased these for was £16.50 excluding delivery so I was over the moon that I was finally going to be getting to try this expensive brand for free! When I received my products I took a moment to have a look at the packaging, it is a gold pen with a hefty weight and 'feels' quality. It is the type of product you pull out of your...

Review of Yves Saint Laurent Touche Eclat (Radiant Touch)

A Touch Too Much?

Advantages: App store, built in speaker, external volume control
Disadvantages: None (so far)

...fired it up for the first time. As the 2nd generation Touch has a speaker built in internally, it let out a small 'ping' which was a little unexpected as I had forgotten most of what I had read about the new models. I also noticed the additional external volume control buttons on the side. These, I believe, are straight from the iPhone, and has already proved to be an excellent feature for me. All the icons appeared instantly on the screen and I started checking them out. I also found that the touchscreen is very responsive and does not need hardly any pressure to select an icon. I had used my brother-in-law's first gen Touch before so knew the basic interface but I noticed the Application store icon had an icon on the homepage now. I had looked through some of the apps on the iTunes store when it was launched but didn't really find...

Review of Apple iPod touch 8 GB

ipod touch review

Advantages: Attractive, easy to use touch screen and applications
Disadvantages: Expensive and the headphones are not very durable

...In my opinion the iPod touch is the best in the MP3 player category. With features such as the applications and album artwork it is much more than just a music playing device. However, I would recommend most music listeners to go for a higher memory option. The headphones are not very durable however, and are expensive to replace. That s one drawback of the iPod, all the accessories and software updates tend to be expensive. With the accessories it may be best to look elsewhere than the official Apple products as there are good alternatives. Unless you want a simple music player, in which case I would recommend the iPod shuffle, I think this easily beats the competition in attractiveness and, like most Apple products, just being cool! Its is not the cheapest in its category, but I think it is without a doubt the best....

Ipod Touch 8Gb with engraving

Advantages: All the features of the iphone but without the massive price tag
Disadvantages: battery life could be better

...require to browse on the move. It allows cookies and javascript to run and allows you to have upto 8 browser windows open at a time. The touch comes with its own Youtube application which allows you to watch videos without the need to use the Safari browser. Google maps is another standard feature which is great if you are lost as (with the aid of a wireless signal) you can pinpoint your exact location which I must admit I find fascinating. Zooming in on the maps is simple too, by placing your thump and forefinger of the screen and then pulling them apart will zoom the map. Also pushing these fingers together will zoom the map out. This functionality can also be used in the Safari browser. There are other functions which will be less commonly used such as getting the latest weather and a neat little Nike application which monitors how far you...

YSL Touche eclat

Advantages: easy to carry around
Disadvantages: slightly pricey

...After hearing how 'fabulous' YSLTouche eclat was, I decided to buy some for myself as I was on the plane returning from my holiday. I must say that I'm now a self confessed Touche eclat believer, I find it brightens up the eye area and helps define the your bone structure if applied in the right places (I use it below the eye area making sure the inner corner is well covered, as well as around the sides of the nose and the inner chin area). It's also great for covering spots! I would recommend that you apply it either on its own or AFTER using face powder, I find it looks smoother when applied after using foundation/face powder. If I am feeling tired or in need of re-freshing, by using Touche eclat it always does the trick! O and dont rub it in to the skin, gently dab it in with the end of your finger!...

37" Flat Screen LCD

Advantages: Good quality picture, easy to install
Disadvantages: no connecter aerial in the package

...I have owned this Samsung television for a year now and have been very pleased with it's performance. I would say it was of average price for an LCD TV of this size at around £600. It was easy to install (although no aerial lead was included in the packaging) and the channel auto install was simple. The picture quality is very good, well defined, and colours are bright and sharp. Colours are even throughout the screen, with no fading or darker patches. The teletext functions are also good, with bright displays. The sound quality is excellent, defined and clear with no muffling. The remote control included in the packaging is basic but does the job. The TV is easy to clean, although as with most television sets attracts alot of dust! This does show up quite alot owing to the shiny black frame of the set. This can not be...
