Duracell Powermat 24-Hour Power System Review - Watch CNET's Video Review:

"The good: The Duracell Powermat 24-Hour Power System charges phones without messy wires. The light, compact kit includes a useful portable battery for power on the go.
The bad: Powermat technology is not currently built into any phones, and cases are available for only two handsets. The Power System only charges two devices at once.
The bottom line: The Duracell Powermat 24-Hour Power System is great for keeping two gadgets powered all day, but is best suited for iPhone 4 and Samsung Galaxy S3 owners."

NZXT Phantom 820 Full Tower Case Review - NZXT Phantom 820 Full Tower Case Overview - Legit Reviews:

"NZXT has been on a roll, releasing one innovative case after another.  The NZXT Phantom 410 was an award winning case we reviewed here back in December of 2011.  One year later NZXT sent us its big brother, the NZXT Phantom 820 Full Tower Case.  Unlike the Phantom 410, the Phantom 820's angles are not as hash softening the "Stormtrooper" look.  This is probably because the Phantom 820 is almost twice as big as the Phantom 410"

Iomega px2-300d NAS Review - SlashGear:

"Iomega’s StorCenter px2-300d is a NAS unit aimed at businesses and the prosumer crowd, offering features beneficial to both types of user. This particular unit is the 4TB model, but the device is available in up to 6TB varieties, all of which share the same features. While one would initially be tempted to view the px2-300d as a NAS device tailored to the SMB environment, I contend that it also makes an excellent personal server, offering a pleasant mix of appealing design, quiet hardware, easy-to-use software, and high-end functionality. Whether you’re a business owner looking for a way to keep your data safe or a prosumer in need a sophisticated personal server, read our full review of the px2-300d to see how the device holds up."

Linksys EA6500 review | Modem routers Reviews | TechRadar:

"Here we go again, a new wireless standard merry-go-round is in full swing. If you were around for the 802.11n multi-draft incompatibility débâcle in the mid-2000s, then you'll be rolling your eyes to hear, if you haven't already, that all the networking companies are currently rolling out Draft 2 802.11ac kit."

AMD FX-6300 review | Processors Reviews | TechRadar:

"Last month saw AMD finally unleash the latest update to its Bulldozer CPU technology, codenamed Piledriver.
The first chip we had in the labs was, somewhat inevitably, the top-spec, eight-core AMD FX-8350. And well received it was too. But by virtue of only being a little cheaper than the excellent Intel i5-3570K, it was almost pricing itself out of the market.
The one that we've been interested in getting our techy mitts on is this six-core FX-6300. It's almost the perfect sweet spot for budget gaming CPUs.
The original FX-6200 impressed us recently with its combination of bargain price, impressive multi-threading performance and serious overclocking chops too. In fact, you could push it up to almost the same CPU performance as quad-core king, the i5-3570K."

Sony RX1 review | Compact cameras Reviews | TechRadar:

"The Sony RX100, with its larger than average (one-inch) sensor for a compact camera has made fantastic waves both with the critics and the public, now Sony has stashed a 35mm (full-frame) sensor inside a body which is roughly the same size."

AMD FX-4300 review | Processors Reviews | TechRadar:

"The last few months have left me with a rather positive feeling towards AMD. It's the plucky little upstart, which is trying to maintain some competitiveness against the might of Intel, and with the Piledriver update to its CPU lineup we're seeing some decent little budget chips.
The FX-4300, though, is really testing that goodwill because I'm struggling to figure out what the point of it is.
The original Bulldozer FX-4170 had the same dual-module, quad-core make-up and ran at an industry-leading 4.2GHz straight out of the box. I was also able to push it up to about 5GHz with some fairly rudimentary overclocking."

Asus Taichi review | Laptops and netbooks Reviews | TechRadar:

"Anything one screen can do, two screens can do better. Such is the thinking behind Asus's latest premium notebook-tablet hybrid, the Asus Taichi.
The second screen fitted to the lid of the 1.25kg (2.76lbs) chassis enables you to turn this ultra-portable laptop into a tablet and take full advantage of the touch-optimised Windows 8 operating system.
As with previous Asus products such as the Asus Zenbook Prime UX31A or the Asus Transformer Pad Infinity, the Asus Taichi is a gorgeously designed with a tapered wedge that measures only 3mm (0.12 inches) at its thinnest point.
Lift the lid and the gunmetal grey brushed metal effect reminds us of the excellent Samsung Series 9 ultra-portable laptop while, as ever, comparisons will be drawn with Apple's MacBook Air."

Brother MFC-J4510DW review | Multi-function (mfd) Reviews | TechRadar:

"This new multifunction printer has a twist. Specifically, it has a 90-degree twist. Instead of feeding the paper through the printer in portrait mode, with the short edge emerging first, the Brother MFC-J4510DW turns it sideways so it prints in landscape orientation.
This offers several advantages over the more traditional setup. It can print on A3-sized (11 x 17-inch) paper by taking the page through the printer short end first. A3 pages have to be hand-fed, one at a time through the manual feed slot at the rear of the printer, so it's not suitable for heavy-volume A3 printing.
Instead, think of it as an A4 (US letter size) printer that can print the occasional A3 page.
Although it can handle A3, unlike its A3 stablemate the Brother MFC-J6910DW, it's no larger than most A4 printers."

Nokia Lumia 620 review | Phone Reviews | TechRadar:

"The Nokia Lumia 620 is the newest and smallest member of the Finnish firm's Windows Phone 8 line up, sporting a colourful curved chassis and relatively attractive price tag.
Expected to land early next year, the UK price has yet to be announced but we do know the Lumia 620 will cost €190 on the continent, meaning we could be looking at around £155 SIM-free – or free on contracts starting at around £15 per month.
At that price the Nokia Lumia 620 would be going up against the likes of the Orange San Diego, Sony Xperia J, HTC Desire C and Sony Xperia Miro."

Dell XPS 12 review | Laptops and netbooks Reviews | TechRadar:

"Windows 8 has a shaken up the design of laptops and tablets, with the new emphasis on touchscreen technology resulting in some of the best hybrids we've ever seen.
With this in mind, there was little surprise when Dell announced that its new 12.5-inch Ultrabook, the Dell XPS 12 convertible, would be another shape-shifting device. But there were a few raised eyebrows when we learned that the screen-swivelling design of the Dell Inspiron Duo from 2010 was making a return.
Available for £1,299 /AU$1,499/US$1,199, it's a serious outlay but with top components and both laptop and tablet functionality, it's one of the biggest names on the Windows 8 roster."

Toshiba LX830-10F review | Pc & mac desktops Reviews | TechRadar:

"Somehow the Toshiba LX830-10F feels both current and out of date at the same time. The idea of an all-in-one PC that sits in the front room and handles media, games and even office programs with ease, all packaged up with an interface that's easy and intuitive to use on a touchscreen, is an attractive one.
But for years they've been lumbered with operating systems that might be fine with a keyboard and mouse, but just don't work well with touchscreens.
However, now that Windows 8 is here, we are begging to see some excellent all-in-ones, such as the Dell XPS One 27 Touch and the Lenovo IdeaCentre A720, that take advantage of the more touch-orientated operating system. Fast, fluid and good looking, these PCs and their operating system work brilliantly together."

Apple Mac mini review | Pc & mac desktops Reviews | TechRadar:

"The Apple Mac mini has long been the cheapest way to own a Mac. Since its introduction in January 2005, the small form factor desktop Mac has offered a low-cost alternative to the all-in-one iMac or the high-end Mac Pro.
Although it's sold without a keyboard, mouse or screen, everything else you need is in the box. It's internet-ready, through Ethernet or wireless N, and comes with OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion and all its bundled apps pre-installed.
The 2012 generation Mac mini is based on an aluminium unibody design. It's available in two models. The cheaper one has a 2.5GHz dual-core Intel Core i5 processor and a 500GB hard drive, and costs £499 in the UK, AU$699 in Australia or US$599 in the US."

Acer C7 Chromebook review | Laptops and netbooks Reviews | TechRadar:

"The Acer C7 Chromebook is a cheap laptop.
Given that - look at it - it's clearly a laptop. And, when you further note the £199.99/US$199.99 (around AU$191) price tag, it's obviously cheap.
But this is a Chromebook, a thing that runs Google's Chrome OS - essentially replacing the entire notion of an operating system with a web browser.
And while the Chromebooks that we've reviewed before, such as its predecessor, the Samsung Series 3, and the Samsung Series 5, are configured differently and feel different to traditional laptops, this new C7 Chromebook from Acer seems to have been designed, consciously or not, to look and to feel as traditionally laptop-like as possible."

Toshiba Tecra R940 review | Laptops and netbooks Reviews | TechRadar:

"The tagline behind the Toshiba Tecra R940 is designed to be a serious business laptop.
More recently, this is an area where Ultrabooks such as the Asus Zenbook Prime UX31A, Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon and Samsung Series 9 have been making waves, with their long battery life and speedy solid-state drives.
For the most part, though, Ultrabooks tend to be light on features, and if there's one thing the Tecra R940-1CW has, it's business features."

Motorola Droid Razr Maxx HD review | Phone Reviews | TechRadar:

"Those wondering the effect Google would have on buying Moto? Apparently, it's to make the phones much better. But in true Moto form, it's offering something for everyone by increasing the girth of its Droid Razr HD to 9.3mm, while improving batter power to a much larger 3300mAh option.
Like the Razr HD, the Maxx takes all those problems and removes them to make a much slicker and well-rounded smartphone."

Canon G15 review | Compact cameras Reviews | TechRadar:

"After quite a significant waiting period, the Canon G12 has finally been upgraded in the shape of the 12.1 million pixel Canon PowerShot G15, unveiled at Photokina 2012.
At first glance, the Canon G15 looks pretty similar to the Powershot G12, but there are a few significant differences. The most notable of these is the stacked or overlapping dials on the top that enable both the mode dial and the exposure compensation dial to be squeezed on to the right side of the camera's top plate.
Although these could potentially be a turn-off for novices, they enable more experienced photographers to set the exposure mode and adjust the exposure quickly."

Twelve South HiRise for iMac review | Monitors Reviews | TechRadar:

"The Twelve South HiRise raises the height of your iMac or Apple Display without ruining its aesthetics.
Your Apple device's L-shaped aluminium stand fits into a slot at the back of the HiRise, and rests on a height-adjustable shelf within the unit. Just find which of its six slots is the most comfortable for your viewing.
One of the slots height-aligns a Thunderbolt Display with your iMac. This is very useful if you use a Thunderbolt display as a second screen."

Nook HD review | Tablets Reviews | TechRadar:

"The Nook HD from bookstore giant Barnes and Noble makes some big claims for such a small tablet, as it looks to steal the limelight at the budget end of the market."

Fuji X-F1 review | Compact cameras Reviews | TechRadar:

"Fuji's X range of cameras has proven incredibly popular over the past couple of years. Now the company seems keen on expanding that popularity into the mass market of consumers, with a new range of cameras designed to appeal to a wider audience."

WD My Book VelociRaptor Duo review | Disk drives (hdd & ssd) Reviews | TechRadar:

"It's been over nine months since Apple introduced Thunderbolt, and the port has gradually been rolled out across the range. However, Thunderbolt peripherals, including drives, remain relatively rare.
With the My Book VelociRaptor Duo, Western Digital has taken two of the fastest drives it makes, with a SATA 6Gb/s interface and disks rotating at 10,000RPM, and put them in a similar enclosure to its Thunderbolt Duo drive. And it certainly is fast."

Google Nexus 7 review | Tablets Reviews | TechRadar:

"Undoubtedly tired of the struggle against the iPad, Google announced its own branded 7-inch tablet: the Google Nexus 7 by Asus, complete with stellar specs and a rock-bottom price.
We've now been given a new and upgraded 32GB option to join the 16GB offering, with the price not raised above £199, which is hugely impressive for a quad core, Tegra 3-endowed tablet."

Sony Alpha a99 review | Digital slrs/hybrids Reviews | TechRadar:

"After a four-year wait, Sony has brought out a replacement to the full-frame Alpha a900 camera, the 24.3MP Sony Alpha a99.
Unlike the Sony a900, which was a DSLR, the Sony a99 is a DSLT, or Digital Single Lens Translucent camera. This means that instead of having a mirror that flips up to enable the exposure to take place, the Sony Alpha a99 has a fixed translucent (or transmissive) mirror that allows 70% of the light reaching it to pass through and onto the imaging sensor."

Huawei Ascend G330 review | Phone Reviews | TechRadar:

"The Huawei Ascend G330 is a fairly uninspiring phone, but is designed to appeal to those that want to spend only a little on a smartphone. These people may want something more than a £70 effort from the bargain bin, but won't break the bank."

Toshiba Satellite U840 review | Laptops and netbooks Reviews | TechRadar:

"The Toshiba U840-10V comes in at the lower end of the price scale for Ultrabooks. Available online for around £650 (around AU$998/US$1,034), it beats the price of the likes of the Asus Zenbook UX31 by a couple of hundred pounds, and the likes of the Samsung Series 9 by enough to buy a whole second laptop."

Blue Microphones Mikey Digital review | Mobile phone accessories Reviews | TechRadar:

"How much would you pay for an iPhone dictation microphone?

This microphone connects to your iOS device's 30-pin dock connector. Though it mimics the iPhone 4's aesthetic, its plastic silver trim doesn't immediately scream quality."

Libratone Zipp review | Hi-fi and av speakers Reviews | TechRadar:

"Is this woolly AirPlay speaker a wolf in sheep's clothing?"

HTC One X+ AT&T Review - YouTube:

"Lisa Gade reviews the HTC One X+ Android smartphone on AT&T. This is the updated version of the One X with a 1.7GHz Tegra 3 quad core CPU and 64 gigs of internal storage. The phone runs Android 4.1 Jelly Bean with HTC Sense 4+ software. It has a gig of RAM, a 1.6MP front camera, 8MP rear camera with BSI and flash, dual band WiFi, Bluetooth, NFC and a GPS with Glonass. It has a polycarbonate unibody design and a superb 4.7", 1280 x 720 Super LCD2 display. It sells for $199 with contract on AT&T and $549 w/o contract extension."

Samsung ATIV Smart PC 500T Windows 8 Tablet Review - YouTube:

"Lisa Gade reviews the Samsung ATIV Smart PC 500T Windows 8 Tablet. The 500T runs on a 1.8GHz Intel Atom CPU and it has an 11.6" touchscreen with active Wacom digitizer and S-Pen. The 1.7 lb. tablet can run Windows 7 programs and runs full Windows 8. It has a 1366 x 768 PLS display, 2 gigs of DDR2 RAM and a 64 gig SSD. The tablet has 1 USB 2.0 port and a microSDXC card slot. Samsung offers an optional keyboard dock that sells for $129 and the tablet sells for $649. It has long battery life and a fan-less design and it sits between the MS Surface RT tablet and Intel Core i5 tablets for price and performance."

Corsair H60 2013 edition review - Introduction:

"Last week re checked out the all new H100i All-in One Liquid Cooler from Corsair which was released. Alongside that release Corsair really launched and upgraded several products from their Hydro series of Liquid System CPU cooler. For example the H80i was introduced as well. "

Intel Core i7-3970X Extreme Edition Processor Review - X-bit labs:

"Intel Core i7-3960X has been the fastest processors for high-performance desktop systems for an entire year. But time has come for it to step down: today Intel offers Core i7-3970X Extreme Edition. Although the newcomer is hardly any different from its predecessor, we decided to subject it to detailed features and performance testing in our lab."

Review: Panasonic Viera P55VT50 is an imperfect, pricey plasma TV | TechHive:

"When you spend $2500 (estimated street price as of 12/4/2012) for an HDTV, you have the right to expect something special. The Panasonic Smart Viera P55VT50 is the 55-inch version of the company’s highest-end plasma set, offering a large screen, 3D playback, THX certification, and good built-in speakers. You'll probably like the set’s streaming and media playback options, but those features are fairly standard these days. The unique feature in the mix is a built-in SD/SDHC/SDXC card slot.

As you'd expect, the set's picture quality is very good, but for the price, we expected it to run laps around lower-priced HDTVs. That wasn't the case. What's more, you'll need to calibrate the picture for the best results, as we saw notable picture-quality problems before we calibrated the set."

Samsung Flip Cover for Galaxy S III and Note II Review - Samsung Flip Covers For Galaxy S III and Note II - Legit Reviews:

"Samsung has sold millions of the Galaxy Note II and Galaxy S III smartphones this holiday season, so many are looking for ways to keep their new smartphone protected. Samsung doesn't have a case per say, but they do have a unique protective flip cover that is available in an array of vibrant colors - Titanium Gray, Marble White, Light Blue, Pink, Mint, Lime Green, and Orange. This means that you can not only help protect the Galaxy S III and Note II, but add a splash of color to personalize your phone while you are at it! The Samsung Protective Flip Covers are priced the same for each smartphone and run $39.99 each, $49.99 for two colors and $99.99 for four colors. The best bang for your buck is obviously the two colors for $49.99."

HTC One X+ Review - SlashGear:

"HTC’s One X, which launched earlier in the year, turned out to be quite a capable Android handset, and it was leaps and bounds above the company’s 2011 lineup. However, HTC decided to launch an updated version just a few months after the release of its predecessor. It’s available now exclusively on AT&T’s network, and it’s priced at $199 after a two-year contract. While the One X+ may not look any different than the One X, it does come with some decent and welcomed updates on the inside. It comes out of the box with Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, a NVIDIA Tegra 3 chip, 64GB of storage, and a slightly larger 2100mAh battery. These changes certainly are key updates that are crucial if HTC wants to keep up with other flagships going into the holiday season, but are the upgrades worth the higher price? And more importantly, can it compete with the other top-tier handsets on the market?"

HTC One X+ review (AT&T LTE) | The Verge:

"Introduced back in February, HTC's One X was a new attempt to unify the company's product lines and stop pushing out the iterative, hard-to-differentiate models the company had unfortunately become known for. So it came as a bit of surprise to see HTC release the One X+ in October, an iterative update on the One X that simply bumps up the specs. It keeps the "One" brand and improves on its predecessor in a number of ways, but are the new, flagship-caliber specs enough to give the flagging company a boost?"

Review: Sony Bravia KDL-46HX850 offers solid features and performance | TechHive:

"The edge-lit Sony KDL-46HX850 LED HDTV offers a lot to like for its reasonable price. Our panel of judges rated its picture quality as very good, giving it a higher performance score than the higher-priced Panasonic Viera P55VT50 plasma HDTV. When you combine that with the set’s excellent sound and a truly exceptional collection of Internet offerings, you have an HDTV well worth $1600 (as of 12/5/2012), even if its remote control needs another round on the design bench.

This is a 3D television, but you have to buy the glasses separately; the set uses active-shutter 3D glasses, so they're expensive at $50 per pair. Once you've bought them, you can watch everything in 3D, as the KDL-46HX850 can turn 2D images into simulated 3D (although personally, I don't see the attraction)."

10terra wood iPhone 5 case Review - SlashGear:

"There’s nothing quite like spending several hundred dollars on some of the most advanced smartphone technology in the world with the iPhone 5, then covering it with wood. That’s exactly what you’re going to be doing with the 10terra wood iPhone 5 case, and in this case, you’ll be working with the Tree design. The folks at 10terra currently have a relatively limited set of wooden cases, made for the two most recent iPhone sizes, the iPad back to the 2, and the Nexus 7, and they’re all made from high-quality bamboo – real bamboo, accept no imitations."

Nintendo Wii Mini hands-on:

"Nintendo's Wii Mini has been a bit more elusive than we thought, but we've at last snagged the entry-level console ahead of its official release and given it a quick shakedown. While it does what it says on the tin -- welcome newcomers and second-system shoppers to the Wii universe -- we've found that there's a few important details to consider beyond just the absences of internet access and GameCube support. Read on past the break for our quick look."

AnandTech - iPad 4 (Late 2012) Review:

"For years, almost a decade in fact, we've been asking for higher quality displays in notebooks. With most of our pleas left ignored for the value notebook segment, smartphone and eventually tablet makers capitalized on the opportunity. These days the $399 - $499 tablet display experience tends to be superior to the $399+ notebook experience. Things are beginning to change, but not quite fast enough. At the forefront of driving tablet display performance is Apple with its Retina Display equipped iPad. While the company has never really competed in the low-cost notebook or netbook market directly, the iPad has been Apple's solution for consumers who want a computer at a $500 - $700 price point. By focusing on areas that have been neglected by PC makers in the past (e.g. display, wireless connectivity, ease of use), Apple has managed to be quite successful in this space with the iPad."

ASUS EA-N66 & Amped SR20000G Wi-Fi Extender Review - Which Wireless Network Extender Is Best For You? - Legit Reviews:

"With the Holiday season fast approaching, we wanted to take a look at some devices to enhance your existing home or small business network.  Many of us are quite happy with the router that serves as the central hub, but often complain about the wireless coverage around the house or “dark-spots” in the building.  Most times, attempting to fix these Wi-Fi issues results in other issues cropping up.  For example, if you move the Wireless Router away from your home office to get better signals in the corner of your house might result in worse coverage in the bedroom.  Many of us can’t even move the router since it is hard-wired to devices that can’t be relocated."

WD My Passport Edge External Hard Drive Review - HotHardware:

"When USB flash drives first came to market it was a revolution. They offered much larger storage capacity compared to floppy disks, packaged in something about the size of a person’s thumb. Suddenly, you could just save your papers, presentations, and even a smattering of photos onto a little flash drive and safely take it with you anywhere."

Lenovo ThinkPad Twist review | The Verge:

"In ten years, it seems like everything's changed — but maybe things aren't so different after all.

In 2002, Acer revealed a PC that was also a tablet, the TravelMate 100. The convertible device used a swiveling central hinge, allowing the screen to rotate 180 degrees and fold down on top of the keyboard so you could hold it in two hands like a tablet. The concept never caught on in a truly mainstream way, but has occupied a niche ever since the TravelMate's introduction.

Now, a full decade later, Lenovo is trying once again to take the rotating laptop mainstream by bringing the swivel back with the new ThinkPad Twist. Fortunately, though, the hinge is the only thing that's stayed the same: the ThinkPad runs the touch-friendly Windows 8 instead of the horrid Windows XP Tablet PC Edition; it has a 2.6GHz processor, 4GB of RAM, and a 500GB hard drive, all specs that would've seemed like science fiction in 2002; and at $899.99 it's a lot cheaper than the $2,500 TravelMate 100.

The TravelMate 100 concept has clearly stood the test of time. But ten years after its introduction, have hardware, software, and processing power finally converged to a point where a swiveling convertible like the ThinkPad Twist makes sense?"

Review: Microsoft Office 2013 features new look, prices | PCWorld:

"Although consumers and businesses are turning more often to Web-based software and mobile apps, many millions still depend on Microsoft Office to get their work done every day. The folks in Redmond want you to use Office wherever you go—on your PC, your tablet, and your Windows Phone handset. To that end, Microsoft is pushing deep integration between its desktop applications and your data, stored on Microsoft servers."

Nokia Lumia 620 hands-on: $249 for Windows Phone 8 (video):

"Surprising a few of us, Nokia yesterday revealed a brand new Windows Phone 8 device, the 3.8-inch Lumia 620, in an explosion of colors. As its naming convention goes, and at just $249 contract-free, this is the cheapest device running Microsoft's newly christened mobile OS so far. But with a WVGA screen, and only a 5-megapixel camera, is there enough bang for your buck, however? We'd argue yes -- and we're looking forward to see how the final model fares early next year. Our first impressions, a hands-on video and a tour of all seven color options are right after the break."

AnandTech - Hands on with the Analogix SlimPort microUSB to HDMI and VGA adapters:

"In my Nexus 4 review, I noted that the device was the first shipping handset to include support for SlimPort via an Analogix ANX7808 SlimPort transmitter. When I wrote that review it wasn't immediately clear what advantages SlimPort offered over MHL, which has become relatively ubiquitous in the year or so since its introduction. Since then I've acquired the SlimPort microUSB to HDMI 1.4 SP1002 and VGA (D-SUB) SP2002 adapters from Analogix for testing out SlimPort on the Nexus 4."

Apple iMac 27-inch (2012) Review - SlashGear:

"Apple doesn’t change things for the sake of change, and that’s why we’ve had to wait a few years for a redesign of the iMac. When a fresh model does arrive, though, it arrives in style: for 2012, the iMac is slimmer than ever, with a crisp new casing that borrows aerospace construction methods and iPhone display technology to wrap together a beautiful, slim computer that’s pleasing to the eye whether or not it’s powered up. Still, as Apple’s mainstream desktop, the new iMac has to perform, too, and with space at a premium there are some interesting choices to be made as to what goes inside. Read on for the full SlashGear review."

Sonos SUB Review - SlashGear:

"When you decide to pick up a Sonos speaker, you decide to jump into an ever-expanding ecosystem of both hardware and software, with a brand that’s dead set on pushing an immersive experience out to the customer. With the newest member of the family, the Sonos SUB, you’ve now got an earth-rumbling bass component in addition to a couple of sets of high-quality speakers and several center points – dock, bridge (hub), amplifier, whatever you want. The big question you should be asking yourself here is not just if you want to work with the magic that is the SonosNet wireless mesh network, but if you feel its necessary to pick up more than one of the Sonos family components."

Samsung ATIV Smart PC review (AT&T LTE):


"Though we've spent a lot of time writing about laptop / tablet hybrids running Windows 8, we've so far spent precious little time actually playing with them. In part, that's because we've been so preoccupied reviewing convertible Ultrabooks, but it's also because many of the biggest-name hybrids have only just begun to go on sale. That means, then, that we haven't gotten to test any new Samsung devices: both of the company's new Windows 8 offerings take on the hybrid form factor, with one packing an Atom processor and the other, an Ultrabook-grade CPU."

The best tablet for you | TechHive:

"Today's tablet market is jam-packed with options, spanning all shapes, sizes, and icon-driven app environments. With so many appealing options to choose from, it can be tough to decide which tablet is worth opening your wallet for this holiday season. We cut through the clutter to pick the best tablet to fit your specific shopping filter.

Our tablet picks take into consideration features, design, price—and a slew of little details that make them personal favorites among the crowd. In a few cases, the race is tight, and when it is, we also name a runner-up. In other cases, you'll see some repeat favorites, too—that's just how well-rounded those tablets are."

ASUS Zenbook Prime review (UX51Vz): a blazing 15-inch Ultrabook with a lofty price:

"Windows 8 has ushered in an era of category-defying devices, with hybrid machines that bend, flip around, lie flat and otherwise contort flooding the market (and our offices). When virtually every Windows 8 product we've reviewed possesses acrobatic abilities, it's easy to forget regular ol' laptops are running Microsoft's new OS, too. One such machine is the $1,949 ASUS Zenbook UX51Vz (aka the U500), a 15-inch Ultrabook with the trappings of a multimedia powerhouse, including a quad-core Core i7 processor, NVIDIA GT650M graphics and a 1080p IPS display -- and no gymnastic tricks up its sleeve. Another thing it doesn't have: a touchscreen, which is available on plenty of other Windows 8 notebooks, not to mention other upcoming Zenbook Prime models. Considering that (possibly glaring) omission, is the UX51Vz still an attractive option at this premium price point? Head past the break to find out."
