HTC Flyer Video Review

Posted on by

Finally HTC Flyer got into hands of guys over at Engadget. From what we’ve seen it looks like a good tablet and eventhough it is running Google Android 2.3 Gingerbread HTC has done a good job of customizing the interface to make it tablet friendly. The App junkies will not find it interesting though due to Android 2.3 apps are not really large screen friendly and to make it worse it is expected to cost slightly more then the Apple iPad 2. Probably the digital pen is to blame. Now don’t get us wrong HTC did do a great job with it but we don’t think anyone will really make a daily use out of it. Still a solid entry into tablet market for HTC and let’s hope they will bless us with a Honeycomb tablet sometime soon. Meanwhile check the video review by Engadget after the break.

First LED-backlighting took over the notebook market and recently it started taking over both LCD TV and LCD computer monitor markets. This resulted in thinner, sleeker and more elegant designs. To fight with other manufacturers for the top spot in this ‘premium’ market LG released new E60 series LCD LED-backlit monitors with smallest E1960 (18.5 inch, 1366 x 768 px), E2060 (20 inch, 1600 x 900 px), E2260 (21.5 inch, 1920 x 1080 px) and our review unit which is largest of the bunch the E2360 (23 inch, 1920 x 1080 px).

Dell XPS 15 (N00XL503) 15.6 inch Notebook Review

XPS 15 Notebook
Posted on by

We have already had a look at the Dell XPS 17 and now is its smaller brother’s turn. Dell XPS 15 features the same chassis design but is a bit smaller as it sports a 15.6 inch screen. As the chassis is smaller Dell fitted it with slower hardware which is note necessarily a bad thing for some users as this brings the price down to a more affordable level for an average user. The connectivity and 2.1 JBL speaker system are still present which adds to the value of this notebook so this just might be a good choice for everyday use.

Posted on by

Top search for the past few months on our website has been the Olympus E-PL2 is Micro Four Thirds camera and now it is finally available for purchase for about £500 and guys over at Photography Blog got us covered with an in-depth review. Compared to its predecessor the Olympus E-PL1 it offers a larger and higher resolution3 inch LCD screen, a live wheel selector, dramatic tone art filter, ISO ranging from 200 to 6400, a refreshed version of the 14-42mm kit lens, new accessory port 2 for bluetooth connectivity, macro arm light which takes care of precise illumination of macro shots and there are three new conversion lenses available. The body remains small, light and plastic to keep the camera in the “affordable” price range. Also  the 12.3 megapixel sensor, image stabilisation, supersonic wave filter, one-touch HD video recording and 3fps continuous shooting remain the same as on the E-PL1.

Lenovo IdeaCentre A310-VCL1EUK 21.5 inch All-in-one Desktop PC Review
Posted on by

When we think of an all-in-one desktop the only computer that springs to our minds is Apple iMac. Now there are other Windows all-in-one desktop PCs out there available from Dell, Sony, MSI, HP, Acer, Packard Bell and Samsung. But none really stand out as iMacs do which makes them forgetable. But Lenovo just might have built one that will make its way into iMac’s territory with Lenovo IdeaCentre A310. Continue reading >

Today we continue with our coverage of Google related products with probably the most exciting one – Google Cr-48 notebook running Google Chrome OS. Again big thanks to guys over at Engadget for posting an in-depth review. Google Cr-48 notebook might not appeal to all users as the Chrome OS is currently very limited in terms of software and applications selection but for someone looking just for a fast web browsing netbook replacement the Google Cr-48 will not disappoint with up to 8 hour battery life and stunning design. But bare in my that it did struggle with playing Flash videos. Let’s hope that the final version will fix these issues and that it will be priced competitively. Photos, video and full specifications after the break.

Google Nexus S Review

Google Nexus S Review
Posted on by

Following this week’s flood of announcements from Google it looks like we are set for a flood of reviews and hands-on in the following week. Starting of with already seriously leaked Google Nexus S a review by guys over at Engadget. The Nexus S is essentially a Samsung Galaxy S in terms of design and hardware but it delivers ‘pure’ Google Android software experience as it doesn’t feature any of the Samsungs’ OS customisation which is a good thing as the TouchWiz interface that comes with Samsung handsets is sometimes clumsy. Thanks to the latest version of Android 2.3 Gingerbread and some of the top hardware this currently is the best Android smartphone on the market. Videos and photos after the break.
