Plantronics Gamecom 780 review The headset provides good audio quality and great virtual surround sound but is uncomfortable to wear for extended periods

Lindy Digital To Analogue Converter review Handy if you need to feed a range of digital inputs into headphones or a speaker system but too niche for your average laptop user

Acer Veriton Z2611G review Limited memory and a low resolution make this all-in-one look rather mediocre, despite its relatively low price

Panasonic SC-BTT182 review A real improvement over TV audio, but don't expect miracles from the small speakers

Motorola Defy Mini XT320 review The lack of Android 4.0 is a shame, but the front-facing camera, LED flash and long battery life are more than you'd get on other budget handsets, and the Mini's rugged build is also a bonus

Olympus SZ-14 review A massive 24x zoom and an extremely competitive price, but the sensor doesn't pull its weight and image quality suffers

Epson WorkForce Pro WP-4595DNF review An excellent business multifunction, but its support for print languages adds hugely to the price

Panasonic DMP-BDT220 review A fairly inexpensive player with extensive options for picture tweaking

Canon PIXMA MX515 review A stylish MFP with a comprehensive specification, but print costs are relatively high

Sony VPL-VW1000ES review It’s ludicrously expensive, but a clear sign of things to come – all we need now is some 4K content

Tribes: Ascend review Tribes deserved a fantastic sequel, and Ascend delivers. It’s simply superb

Pentax Optio RZ18 review A big, sharp 18x zoom lens at an incredible price, but only consider it if you're not interested in video or low-light photography

Xero review A great cloud-based accounting service for those who don't like being tied to one PC
