Home Cinema 4.5 out of 5Technomate TM-Twin-OE review

Home Cinema 4 out of 5Humax HDR-1000S freesat with freetime review
Since freesat launched, it's been assaulting our eyes with its capital letter - or lack thereof - lunacy. Now, with freetime, or, as the firm calls it we've got some angled brackets thrown in for good measure. What is this, algebra? But horrors of English...

Home Cinema 4 out of 5Panasonic TX-65VT20 review
At 65-inches in diameter and with a depth of just 90mm, is this 3D Ready plasma the ultimate flatscreem TV? It certainly looks the part, but if you’re going to spend this kind of money on anything it should be faultless. And for all its high tech features...

Home Cinema 4 out of 5Panasonic TX-L32D28BP television review
Part of Panasonic's LED-lit D28 Series, this purple (or silver, or white) set is some package - but it comes at a high price. Although it's only 77mm in depth, it packs in an almost ridiculous line-up of features. Both Freeview HD and Freesat HD tuners...

Home Cinema 4.5 out of 5Panasonic Viera TH-46PZ81B television review
Panasonic has introduced the World’s first flat panel TV with a built-in Freesat tuner and it’s a cracker. The 46-inch model we had to test has Full HD 1080P resolution, though its blocky black lines aren’t the most stylish on offer today, it is...

Home Cinema 4.5 out of 5Humax FOXSAT-HD Freesat receiver review
