Sony PlayStation Vita WiFi
The handheld game’s market is now very different from the one that Sony launched the PSP into, back in 2005.

Then along came the smartphones, dishing out fantastic…
Toshiba 37UL863 TV
It’s not often we review a 37in-sized screen like the Toshiba 37UL863 TV. The category has almost dropped out of use and been replaced by 40in+ sizes – but what it lacks in stature, this Toshiba LED-backlit panel makes up for in core quality. The Toshiba’s design and chassis are nothing flashy, but the hardware…
Brother DCP-J925DW inkjet multifunction printer
Has brother made the perfect multi-function printer for a small office?

Amazon has recently launched some new Kindles. The all-colour Fire tablet may have attracted the most attention – though it’s not yet available in…
Epson Stylus Photo PX830FWD printer
Aimed at photographers wanting to print in top quality, Epson’s latest six-colour home inkjet printer is also packed with features for small offices, too. Top of the tree is WiFi connectivity, though the 465x458x198mm PX830FWD’s versatility is borne out by its ability to work with a PC (XP onwards) or Mac (OS 10.4.11), and both…

Here, its latest reader – due to go on sale in the UK in…
