- LG BH200
- When LG introduced the first HD DVD/Blu-ray combo player at CES 2007, it was a groundbreaking moment in consumer electronics. Nobody expected a combo player to be released so soon, and at the time it seemed that maybe it was a way to avoid a long, protracted format war. Fast-forward...

- Olevia 252T FHD
- Vizio and Westinghouse have become relatively well-known brands among the hundreds of flat-panel LCD makers most people haven't heard of, and Olevia also deserves credit for establishing its name as well. The company has dropped the old name "Syntax"--definitely not an error--and released a slew of models, including the 52-inch...

- JVC LT-47X898
- Last year, JVC was the first company to come out with an LCD that boasted a 120Hz refresh rate, a feature that's supposed to reduce blurring in fast motion. In 2007 the follow-up 120Hz models are found in the company's flagship LT-X898 series. The largest member of that series, the...

- Nyko Blu-Wave Infrared Remote (PS3)
- The PlayStation 3 is arguably one of the most advanced home consumer entertainment products ever, but it's missing one of the most rudimentary features found on every $40 DVD player: an infrared remote sensor. That means that you can't control the PS3 with a traditional universal remote; you're instead forced...

- LG RC797T SuperMulti DVD/VHS Recorder
- You've probably noticed that DVD/VHS recorders haven't dropped in price as much as you'd expect for technology that's been around for several years. One of the major reasons for the relatively high price this year is that all DVD/VHS recorders that include an analog TV tuner also must include a...

- Vizio GV47LF HDTV
- Native resolution, which on HDTV spec sheets usually refers to the number of physical pixels used to create the picture, comes in two basic flat-panel LCD flavors: 1,366x768 and 1,920x1,080. The latter, known as 1080p, has become increasingly common even among relatively inexpensive models, and Vizio's GV47LF HDTV is one...

- Test-taking by clicker gains acceptance

- Vizio L37HDTV
- Thanks to extremely aggressive pricing, Vizio has risen to become one of the most-popular flat-panel TV brands out there. HDTVs priced as low as the 37-inch flat-panel Vizio L37HDTV ($1,399 and falling) usually have a few major issues with features or picture quality. Vizio has struck a winning balance in...

- Humax LD2060
- It's a common refrain: consumer electronics are too complicated and cumbersome for the average user. And even if you're a "power user" who enjoys the latest and greatest tech gear, you've still got to deal with the inevitable rat's nest of cables and wires that invades your living space once...

- Photo gallery: Vizio VO320EVizio chose to adorn its VO320E 32-inch LCD with claims of environmental consciousness, saying the little set exceeds Energy Star guidelines by 15 percent.

- B&W Zeppelin Mini Speakers for iPod
- Back in 2007, Bowers & Wilkins brought out the uniquely styled Zeppelin iPod speaker, which we described in our review as being every bit as sophisticated as Apple's iconic player, with detailed sound that largely lived up to B&W's high-end reputation. That Zeppelin remains on the market, but now it's...
