Energizer Energi to Go Xpal XP2000
Can this power your gadget life? 14 October 2009 16:00 GMT

The Good
Will charge virtually all your gadget as long as you have the right cable, small

The Bad
Cumbersome if you plan to use and charge at the same time, not all tips (Sony Ericsson) are included in the box

Verdict
It's basic in its offering, but then it is just a battery. Where the Energizer Energi To Go range succeeds is that it's not just restricted to one gadget

Price

Price
£$99

The Good

The Good
It does what it says, can charge two batteries at the same time

Price

Should you ride the wave? 15 October 2009 9:00 GMT

The Good
Limitless potential

How vain are you? 14 August 2009 11:29 GMT

The Good
1.5-inch screen on front, smile mode, touchscreen rear display

The Bad
Bet all those screens eat the battery

While we are still holding out on a full verdict because we were unable to see what the image quality is like, but the hardware specs, laughable at first, quickly began to make sense up close and personal

Price

Go on, you know you want one 26 June 2009 9:00 GMT

The Good
Simple, great recipe book, making two flavours at once is convenient

It’s plasticy for the price and too bulky for occasional use

Verdict

The Good
Design looks funky, transfer speed is fast

The Bad
It seems you pay a premium for the design

Verdict
That funky "monochrome" design will add a premium to the final bill, a £50 premium, which to us seems a bit steep as it's merely a paint job

Price
£120

Didn't find what you want?

Are you having trouble finding what you are looking for? Below are a few tips that should help you get the best results from our search engine.

Be Specific

Try to think of words that would best describe the product such who makes it or how many megapixels it has. Our search engine does not recognize "and", "or" "the" or similar words so don't worry about putting them in as search terms.

Spelling

Typos are the most common reason for unsatisfactory search results. If you're not sure how to spell a product or brand name try a more general term.

Tags

If you still can't find what you are looking for, then why not try our tag index where we have tags all our stories with words we think will help you find information quickly. You can choose to look at the tags either via which are the most popular, or via an alphabetical list.
