The Sony DVP-PR30 Is My Little Black Box

Advantages: Neat, Stylish and Performs Well.
Disadvantages: Quite basic but it works well.

...Sony Persona DVP-PR30 is a Compact DVD Player in black. It is a neat little DVD Player with excellent performance, it has a Precision Drive 3 Mechanism for fast, stable and accurate playback. The playback has always been clear audibly and swift. There are many features to the Sony Persona DVP-PR30 including; Playback of DVD-RW/-R /-R DL (VR mode w/o CPRM), Playback of JPEG, mp3, Audio CD-R/RW, Super VCD discs, DivX Playback and Fast / Slow Playback with Sound. The product measures 998g and when boxed it weighs just 2.3 Kg. The Sony Persona DVP-PR30 was released in 2008 and is still relatively new to the market. Initially I bought this for my bedroom to work alongside my new wide-screen television set. It is lightweight but well made so the remote is easy to use with my TV. I loved the way it was so neat and compact it takes up hardly...

Review of Sony DVPPR30B.CEK

Good things come in small packages

Advantages: Lightweight, Small, easy to use
Disadvantages: Picture Quality not bril, Scratches

...Sony DCR-SX30 Camcorder This is a versatile memory stick camcorder with extra 4 GB of internal memory. The DCR-SX30 can record just under 3 hours of film on its internal memory alone. The DCR-SX30 is a very good ?cheapish? cam recorder with lots of decent features (see bellow). That is one of the best in the category of decent non HD camcorders. It is very light, fun to use and a very powerful zoom. Features ? 60x Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar zoom lens with option of up to 2000x digital zoom ? 800,000 pixel CCD sensor ? ?SteadyShot?® image stabilisation to avoid shaky movies ? 2.7 inch Wide touch screen LCD display for ease of use ? ?Face Index? and ?Film Roll Index? features that make searching for footage...

Review of Sony DCR-SX30

Sony NWZ-E436 4GB

Advantages: Easy to use, long battery life
Disadvantages: Small capacity

...The first I want to say about this product is how long the battery lasts. I was playing around with this thing for a whole 2 days without the battery even going down under half. I later realised that the battery life was up to 45hours which is pretty incredible, considering it is longer than the Ipod touch. So 4GB may not seem to much to a lot of people, but for those who don't have a HUGE music collection, but want just enough to be able to store a few hundred tracks, this mp3 player has an ideal capacity. There is no easy sync like on Ipod but many find it easier to drag and drop songs that they want onto the mp3 rather than the problem that occurs when and Ipod can randomly start syncing with the wrong music! This product is very thin and lightweight as well so you will hardly notice it in your pocket. It also supports...

Review of iPod 30GB

Advantages: Lots of space for files, good video and sound quality, easy to use, great design
Disadvantages: The longer you have it the quicker and more charging it needs, can sometimes freeze and need reset

...I am a person who likes variety, and listening to music when walking. When I had my portable cd player, I got annoyed whenever it jogged by the slightest bump and having to lug around several cds so I could change the music when I wanted. That's why I'm so grateful for the iPod. It has a smart, simple and stylish design. It is easy to use and can probably be easily used by most people. It is small but not too small, so it can fit into most pockets or handbags but not be easily lost. The video display is sharp and clear, watching videos on the iPod is always a delight. The sound quality is also good and has an equalizer setting option so you can change the sound to, for example, more or less bass. The amount of space that comes with the 30Gb is plenty. I have had mine for a couple of years now and still ahve space left, even...

Review of Apple iPod 30 GB

Ipod 30GB 5G

Advantages: Clear colour, sound quality high, prices dropped from old version
Disadvantages: screen scratches, exterior scratches.

...is excellent because it came with a free screen protector. You only get a USB charger also. If you wish to charge on the go in a wall or in the car then you will need to buy another charger. Also the computer needs to be on for it to charge. OTHER The battery life lasts through at least two films I have found and then some. It is very good considering the screen is brighter than the old version yet the battery lasts longer. A tip to save battery is to have the backlight off when not needed! The headphones are Apple's new and improved. They offer better comfort, sound quality and noise canceling. They work very well and yes they are comfortable. This 30GB model is what I have because you do not need more than that I find. You will find yourself holding films on there that you don't even watch if it is too big. Also...

Review of Apple iPod 30GB Fifth Generation

Playstation 3 80GB

Advantages: Blu-Ray, Built in WIFI, Wireless Controller, Free Online Game Play
Disadvantages: Does not play PS1 or PS2 games like the 60GB

...run through and see how many points you can get and the one with the most points wins! Its so Pointless and unrealistic but fun! Game costs around £30 to £40. I Am Legend Blu-Ray DVD Will Smith portrays that lone survivor in I Am Legend, the action epic fusing heart pounding excitement with a mind blowing vision of a desolated Manhattan. Some how immune to an unstoppable, incurable virus, military virologist Robert Neville (Smith) is now the last human survivor in New York City and maybe the world. £20 to £25. Sony Official Blu-Ray remote It’s a very handy remote to have as it is a Bluetooth remote made especially for the Playstation 3 it works on all models 20GB, 40GB, 60GB, 80GB and 160GB I use it on my 60GB Playstation 3.

Review of Sony PlayStation 3 (PS3)

IPOD VIDEO 30GB

Advantages: sleek
Disadvantages: scratches easily,expensive

...For the money this music player is one of the best available, however, there are a few things Apple could have improved over the prior generation models that they didn't. Issue 1: The LCD is too small for normal viewing. This ipod is a "video" model but yet I can buy a PSP for a £40 less, have more of a screen area, and still be able to play games. Keep in mind you won't have 30 gigs of storage, but I have almost 4,000 songs and 10 music videos and still have around 24 gigs lefts. Who really needs that much space? Issue 2: The player uses a menu system that makes it very time consuming to find what you are looking for. Let's say you want to find a song by Kanye West. I can search by Song, Artist, or by letter. The problem is that by Song or Artist I have to use the ackwardly slow click wheel to get to "K" for artist seach. Or I...

Review of iPod Video 30GB

Great low-mid level laptop, for work, rest and play!

Advantages: Superfast, great design and nice-sized harddrive
Disadvantages: There are more advanced laptops out there. Price varies considerably.

...Here we have another great laptop by Sony and should that surprise anyone, considering that Sony are one of the most respected manufacturers of electronics in the world ? The Sony Vaio VGN-NS30E/W is a low-mid level laptop designed to fit the needs of most business and leisure users. To better illustrate the features, the pros and the cons I've split the review into sections for you................ APPEARANCE -------------------- This laptop is honestly gorgeous in its design. The white frame gives it a very crisp and clean look, much like an IPOD and makes you excited to see what it can do. Upon opening the laptop, you're greeted with a stunning screen with X-Black technology. This means that the black backgrounds, vivid colours of media players and photos look very deep and rich. Games, movies and applications all look...

Review of Sony VAIO NS Series VGN-NS30E/W

Review of 32GB ipod touch

Advantages: extreme usefulness
Disadvantages: not many that i an think of

...the apple ipod touch 32GB is the best value for money in my eyes when it comes to versitility, durability and capacity although the capacity is put to shame by that of the ipod video which has about 100GB it is still plenty of space for all your application, music and video needs. versitility: the ipod touch contains an itunes app store with over 10,000 application to do anything form straightening a picture to practising guitar in cramped conditions, but if your not into those it also has thousands more practical apps such as a mobile internet browser and a scientific calculator. durability: I personaly have an ipod touch and form the time i got it i must have dropped it at least 20 times on concrete and stone floors until I finally made the clever descision to just buy a case but before that i found that the ipod touch can take...

Review of Apple iPod touch 32 GB

Archos 604 WIFI 30GB

Advantages: Great video playback and hard drive space
Disadvantages: Won't sync with iTunes, battery life isn't great

...Being a movie fan I enjoy watching films on the go and after becoming bored with the annoyingly small screen on the iPod Video, I decided to purchase one of these just after they came out. So far I am very pleased with the video playback performance due it having a nice, big, high resolution touch screen. Also after buying and downloading some plug ins from the Archos website I can watch a huge range of file formats on it. (Slightly annoying that I had to pay for them but hey.) Also there is plently of room for films and music on the 30GB although it would have been nice to see a slightly bigger hard drive option. On the music side of things, the archos is not iTunes compatible and so music syncing cannot be made automatic - you have to manually drag and drop all your new songs into the music folder on the Archos. Once the music is...
