Advantages: Easy to use, vibrate alert, small and light.
Disadvantages: No games, lacking in ringtones.

...I brought the Panasonic G520 on Vodafone Pay as You Talk quite recently costing me only £39.99. It is quite a small phone and is easy to use. It has one touch access to the phone book and an easy navigation system. Extras include a Vibrate Alert. The screen is big enough to fit three lines of text so you aren't forever scrolling through when reading text messages. The screen gives you information on battery life, signal strength and the ability to make emergency calls. This is a phone for people that use mobiles as a phone, it doesn't have loads or ringtones or games but it also doesn't give you a headache or cost as much as phones like the Nokia 5110....

Advantages: Light, Nice finish
Disadvantages: Battery life

...I bought this phone sim free back in 2001 from a local mobile phone shop for a bargain price of £50. I found the phone very appealing due to the fact that it only weighs 88 grams and the fact that it was a Panasonic phone which was very slim and the nice glossy finish on it. This phone was available to buy in 2 colours,the blue or silver finish. .It has a very small and lightweight battery and is very slim too I found it was very easy to get used to using the phone due to its simple menu interface. There was an innovative feature on this phone whereby you could change the background display colour too into orange and green which was nice. Talk time and reception quality were both excellent too as well as the very lightweight charger. Drawbacks include that it doesn't have many features such as predictable text input unlike...

Advantages: Tablet style flip screen, built in functionality
Disadvantages: ???

...and these devices are often dropping out of range for GPRS where a phone can get reception. The WiFi has been very good reception, no loss of signal quality or dropping of connections. Battery life is also good now as Panasonic have incorporated Centrino technology which utilises the Pentium M 900Mhz CPU which consumes the least power of the range of processors, giving a significant increase in battery life, we can now almost get a full days use out of these things (7 hours). Durtability has also been much better than it's predecessor, they don't feel as strong on the outside as the 34 but Panasonic have realised the amount of hard disks that were failing and decided to mount the CF-18 disk in a jelly like substance to further absorb the shocks created by chucking these things around (which people just can't resist when they read Toughbook on the lid...

Advantages: everything... it's perfect
Disadvantages: works long time only with Panasonic batteries

...So I bought this camera two years ago and I think it's the best in compact category. I'm not a professional photographer, but I'm really intrested in taking photos. If you need a professional-like camera but you don't want to buy an SLR, this is what you need. The pictures what I made with it are really clear and beautiful. The stabilizer is extremely good. I've got really shaking hands, but the picture is clear. I really love it. The 12x optical zzom is controlled with a ring like SLRs and not with buttons. It makes the camera more SLR-like, speeds up photo taking and spares the battery. It works with a special battery, and I really alert you, buy only original Panasonic batteries, the others are flat in a few hours. So I think if you're looking for a new camera, buy that!...

Advantages: Rugged, stylish semi-soft case
Disadvantages: Only fits camcorder with no room for spare tape or batteries

...I got this free with my Panasonic NVGS11B hence excellent value for money but not something I would buy though. Reason below. The case has a stylish rugged look about it with a hand held strap which is connected to the dual zip on the left and right hand side. The 2 zips go to the top but not right around the top. The remaining gap is covered by the top flap cover which is fastened using velcro. Around the back is a belt clip which can be opened or closed with push buttons. Also comes with a shoulder strap. The external case itself apart from the zip and bottom area is made from a plastic type material so appears to be rugged in construction. Internally there is only the one compartment for your camcorder. The camcorder fits snugly in the soft sponge lined case. There are no internal or external pockets and no room inside to put...

Advantages: Two backlight colours, Vibrating alert and voice memo
Disadvantages: some times tricky to get accessories

...I have had various Panasonic phones and all have been reliable. My latest phone, the GD90 does not disappoint, the talk time and battery life are good and it is packed with features such as Vibralert, voice memo and two choices of backlight so that select callers can be identified (this does not sound very useful but it is). My only gripe would be that getting hold of accessories is slightly trickier than for some manufactures. Great if you want to be different from the rest of the Nokia crowd. I have seen that some reviers ave had trouble with reception, I'm on BTcellnet and do not have any problems.... Read review

Advantages: compact, light, large display, backlighting remote, excellent sound quality on both playback and recording.
Disadvantages: Low quality case

...I'd rate this very highly among portable MD recorders. The smallest and lighest of it's kind when purchased a few months ago, it is extremely user friendly, with a variety of recording options and capabilities to suit both the gadget expert and phobic. Straightforward, easy reading instructions to enable you to get to grips with its capabilities. and comes complete with its own backlighting remote and large double line LCD display, it is suitable for use just about anywhere. And with 40 second anti-shock and long battery life, I can take it jogging too! With superb recording and playback quality the SJMR200 can easily be connected to most hi-fi's for both purposes. A reasonable price, lying in the middle of it's range I would whole-heartedly reccommend this product to anyone.... Read review

Advantages: Great if you work away.
Disadvantages: Battery life

...good enough but as usual with portable devices you get the best results with earphones or a speaker station plugged in. The build quality is superb as you would expect from Panasonic the buttons feel good and the material has a smooth shiny finish to it. Battery life isn't the longest in the world only about 3 hours with full volume but you could stretch this out to more if you used earphones. This is a good all round performing portable DVD player. Nothing too fancy but has all the important features you would want from it. So the Panasonic LS80-K comes recommended to anyone looking to buy a portable DVD player. If you find that ipods are too eye straining then these are a good alternative.... Read review

Advantages: Build quality, reliability, size, performance
Disadvantages: non really, it is what it is for the price, a point and shoot camcorder with brilliant imaging

...I researched this purchase a lot before buying as I wanted the best image quality for the money. I have always been a fan of Panasonics equipment and have about six Panasonic items in the house. All of these purchases have been researched using sites like this and Which magazine. Panasonic always seem to come out best as they did with this camcorder. I liked the size (although they are even smaller now 2 0r 3 years on!) and the flip out lcd screen is kinda cool but I don't use much because it drains the battery that bit faster and I have seen clearer screens on different makes. That is prehaps the only downside to me. It has an easy to use menu system for setting the camcorder up to tour own specific settings like Widescreen mode if you have a widescreen TV. It has Program modes which I suppose would be useful but I tend to keep... Read review
