Reviews coming up this week


Our full test of the Google Nexus One is coming on Thursday

Here's a quick reminder of our weekly plan so you know where you stand:
Mondays: displays, including monitors and TVs. Tuesdays: cameras, camcorders and peripherals. Wednesdays: hardware components and printers. Thursdays: mobiles, smartphones and audio equipment. Fridays: laptops, notebooks, buyer's guides. Saturdays and Sundays: insight and analysis.

  • Tuesday: this morning, we looked at a pair of compact cameras, the Fujifilm F80EXR and the Panasonic ZX3, which we'll be following up with a pair of in-ear headphones from Ultrasone and AudioTechnica.
  • Wednesday: two very different sets of tests today: one of a watch aimed squarely at geeks, while the other covers hard drives from Samsung and Western Digital
  • Thursday: last week we looked at the iPhone 4, Apple's latest flagship smartphone.  The Android-based equivalent is the Google Nexus One, which we're reviewing, alongside another look at Qualcomm, which provides the processor power for many mobile manufacturers.
  • Friday:  as ever, we'll end the week with a look at laptops, this time the Acer U30Jc.  We'll also have the results of our latest tests on how signal strength varies on the new iPhone 4.
  • Saturday: will be time for an update of our Buyer's Guides, with a look at the best memory card to take on holiday with you this summer.
  • Monday: our monitor day will see reviews of the LG W2240S and the Philips 231T1 and a follow-up to our mobile phone signal investigation covering other handsets.
Finally: don't forget you can follow @digitalversus on Twitter for updates and info!
