JVC HD-61G887

Quick Take: While we did not review the JVC HD-61G787, we did review the smaller, 56-inch version, model HD-56G887. The two are identical except for screen size, and the performance of the 61-inch HD-61G787 should be very similar to that of the smaller model. For more information, please refer to...

Eclipse AVN726E DVD/GPS receiver

The AVN726e, Eclipse's newest double-DIN DVD/navigation receiver, was making a name for itself even before it was released to the public, when it was named Best of Innovations at CES 2009 in the In-Vehicle Navigation/Telematics/ITS product category.

Hitachi DZ-BD10HA

Few things work better than convenience for getting consumers to adopt a new technology, and in the case of camcorders, convenience means supporting your preferred format. By that definition, Hitachi's DZ-BD10HA Blu-ray camcorder is certainly convenient. It records full HD video (1,920x1,080) to 3-inch BD-R/RE discs, to a built-in 30GB...

JVC Everio GZ-MG730 (30GB, black)

Standard-definition camcorders tend to have relatively low-resolution image sensors, but JVC bucks that trend with its top-of-the-line Everio G-series hybrid hard-drive/flash-memory camcorder, the GZ-MG730. Instead of a more typical 1-megapixel or 680,000-pixel sensor, the MG730 uses a 7-megapixel model with the goal of giving consumers a combination camcorder and a...

JVC KW-NX7000 navigation/DVD receiver

The JVC KW-NX7000 isn't cleverly named like its sibling the El Kameleon, but it is just as cleverly designed. With its smart features, such as the proximity-based interface or the flash-memory-based navigation data, we found the KW-NX7000 extremely easy to use. However, it was the fun little touches, like the...

Are AVCHD camcorders the next HD lie?

When I wrote "Don’t believe the low bit-rate ‘HD’ lie" with a comparison, I had no idea that these compromises in quality would apply to the latest consumer HD camcorder format called AVCHD as well.  When I first read about the AVCHD format with its use of MPEG4-AVC (H.264) video...

JVC HD-65S998

Although CNET did not review the 65-inch JVC HD-65S998, we did review the 58-inch JVC HD-58S998. Judging from their spec sheets, the two JVC rear-projection HDTVs are essentially identical but for screen size, so we expect the picture quality of the 58-inch model to provide a good indication of how...
