Nokia E65 Review

March 23rd, 2007 · Comments Off

The unit is slim and partially wrapped in a faux leather skin (either red or chocolate), which we’ve seen before in their designer ranges, but not so much in Nokia’s "straight" phones. Inside there’s a basic 2 megapixel camera, numerous media players (although noticably you don’t get stereo headphones in the box), and the usual […]

HP Photosmart R837 Review

March 23rd, 2007 · Comments Off

At 5.5 ounces and one inch thick, this svelte silver camera is very light to hold and fits easily into your pocket. The slider on the front protects the lens and powers on the camera.

Fujifilm FinePix F31fd Review

March 23rd, 2007 · Comments Off

The standout feature on the F31fd is undoubtedly its face-detection capability. If you’ve ever taken a group shot-or photographed someone in a busy setting-you know that it can be difficult to get your point-and-shoot to focus on the right element. Fujifilm’s technology identifies human faces in a frame (up to ten) and automatically adjusts the […]

March 10th, 2007 · Comments Off

At three ounces and 3.7 x 1.8 x 0.7 inches thick, the clamshell-style M500 is very light, compact, and comfortable to hold.

The handset doesn’t have media controls on the […]
