Telegraph reviews the Apple iPhone 3G and writes, “The App Store, sadly, was not running during my time with the iPhone, but I’ve seen enough demonstrations to know this is going to be the killer feature for this device. It’s going to turn the iPhone into a little computer - and give the likes of Nintendo a run for their money. There will be downloadable games available, but rather than having to press physical buttons to control the action, you move the entire iPhone, like a Wii controller. A free software update will give older iPhones this feature, as well… (more…)

Yahoo! Tech reviews the Apple iPhone 3g and writes, “Overall, Web browsing on the iPhone 3G really blew me away. At last, it’s feasible to pull up the New York Times home page when you’re not in Wi-Fi range. That said, when you are using Wi-Fi, the difference can still be dramatic. When I switched my old iPhone into Wi-Fi mode, the handset tore through the CNET home page in 20 seconds and scored a blistering 896Kbps download speed (peaking at 1190Kbps). That’s to be expected, and it’s consolation for any envious owners of the original iPhone… (more…)

CNET reviews the Sony DCR-Sr45 and writes, “The Sony Handycam DCR-SR45 is better than most entry-level HDD camcorders. Its compact, lightweight build is great for grab-and-go videos. The 30GB hard drive allows for plenty of storage, plus you can save video and stills to Memory Stick Pro Duo cards up to 8GB.

Phonemag reviews the Apple iPhone 3G and writes, “There’s been some discussion about whether the new functionality - primarily 3G and GPS - make the real difference to the iPhone 3G, or whether it’s more the updated Firmware 2.0.? Since I’ve never really used the original handset, and since if you wanted to pick one up now it would have to be second hand, it all strikes me as a moot point for fresh users like me.? The question has to be, “is the iPhone 3G good enough to end your cellular searching?”… (more…)

CNET reviews the JVC GZ-MG355 and writes, “In general, color reproduction is very good, displaying both subtle tones and brightly colored subjects with relative accuracy. However, like many tapeless standard-def camcorders, there are quite a lot of compression artifacts in the video. They’re especially noticeable when you compare moving subjects to relatively still backgrounds. [...]

CNET reviews the Canon VIXIA HF11 and writes, “An excellent choice for flash-based HD recording, the HF11 gives the CX7 a close run for the money–we’ve yet to review the CX12–and is a clear champion if you don’t like the Sony’s touch-screen interface. But then the real question becomes which model is the [...]

Camcorderinfo reviews the Panasonic HDC-HS100 and writes, “…the picture was frequently grainy in less than perfect lighting. (Who among us has a perfectly lit house?) When you do have great lighting, the colors are heavily saturated. This will please a lot of consumers, but frustrate serious videographers who demand accuracy…

The New Zealand Herald reviews the Apple iPhone 3G and writes, “What’s missing from the new iPhone? Those who use phone cameras will be disappointed at the lack of video recording which is common on most high-end phones and smartphones to varying degrees of success. Video playback of saved files, though, is flawless… (more…)

Camcorderinfo reviews the Samsung SC-HMX20 and writes, “Let’s get some of the bad things out of the way first. The SC-HMX20 only has basic manual controls. It can’t compete with Panasonic for raw control, or with JVC, Canon, and Sony on advanced handling. (Read below for some head-to-head comparisons.) Also, the Samsung has [...]

Camcorderinfo reviews the Canon VIXIA HF11 and writes, “The Canon Vixia HF11 did not offer any surprises, even when we were expecting it to. It’s still a rock solid camcorder, firmly planted in the roots of its predecessor, the Canon HF10, which was released only eight months ago. The shiny new feature—a 24Mbps [...]
