Merry Christmas Everybody!

We hope that when Father Christmas came down the chimney with a sackful of goodies last night he didn't leave anybody's stocking empty!

And if he did get you something, we hope your new toy is one of our five-star products, rather than something we only rated at three stars or less. Nobody likes queuing up to return an unwanted gift or selling it online, do they?

It's not like he didn't have any help: our Christmas gift guide (which is still there if you're running very late) has our pick of the best products of the year.

You should be able to tell if you're onto a winner without too much trouble though. If you've got a new camera, get it into burst mode and see if it can stay the course—maybe all you need to add is a memory card? If it's a TV (which we know was on a lot of your Christmas lists) then we've got one tip for you: switch to 'Cinema' mode. The colours might seem pale and faded at first, but take the time to get used to it and you'll soon realise that it's the default settings that are totally off the mark ...

Still want more?

If you're still disappointed, then don't worry—we won't be taking a Christmas break so we'll be back with more tests and reviews next week.

In the meantime, Merry Christmas everybody from the whole team!
