Samsung Galaxy Note 2 review
Updated The Note is back, bigger and better
The Galaxy Note 3 is probably coming sometime this year, but it looks like Samsung is still mulling over the design.

Word of Sony's mysterious 'phablet' line-up has surfaced with two giant handsets of 6.44-inch and 5-inch display both tipped for later this year.

There'll be Ultra HD TVs as far as the eye can see at this year's IFA, as Samsung confirms that it will have new sets both bigger and smaller than its current series at the show.

Updated HP's mammoth machine is something of an ultra-ultrabook. As in, it's a bit bigger than you might expect.

Dell has turned its attention to Windows RT for this tablet-laptop hybrid with detachable keyboard dock, so can it convince us?

Updated Now Samsung has given in and called the Galaxy Note 2 a smartphone, we can dub it the most powerful around.

Updated We see so much potential in the Envy x2 we're willing to overlook some of its awkwardness.

Word is Samsung's planning to reveal these two new devices at the Berlin tech conference in September.

A well-built Windows 8 tablet which is very close to being a viable laptop replacement. Shame then, that it lacks a bit of power.

Acer's tiny 10-incher overreaches. Too expensive for a tablet, too cramped for an ultrabook, and too frustrating to recommend.

Sony's compact system camera aims to break new ground, with the inclusion of a newly launched app service and hybrid AF system.

Samsung's Windows RT tablet is expensive, but can it justify the price tag?

The Toshiba Satellite U920t is a Windows 8 hybrid device that crosses the laptop-tablet divide. But how does it fare?

Updated Sony's new Android tablet certainly looks the part, but can it compete with the big players?

Windows 8 has met with mixed reviews. The Acer Aspire S7 could tip the scales in Microsoft's favor.

Black is back as Philips combines Ambilght, local 'micro' dimming and Moth Eye tech to create deepest black levels ever.

It's a 20-inch tablet. It's an all-in-one PC. It's everything at once - except brilliant. It's not that.

The Android apps might be the headline feature, but this compact camera also offers full manual control over exposure.

Anything one screen can do, two screens can do better. Such is the thinking behind Asus's latest premium notebook-tablet hybrid, the Asus Taichi.

Dell's super screen spinning Ultrabook is a great convertible laptop, but is it just a gimmick?

Alongside the Asus Vivo Tab is its little brother - a lower cost and lesser powered little number which runs the ARM friendly Windows 8 RT operating system.

Updated The Vivo tablets may be the brand for its tablet orientated hybrid devices, but Transformer has been retained for Asus's flagship Windows 8 laptop the Asus Transformer Book.

Dell previously had a 27-inch XPS, but this new Windows 8 model brings a couple of new tricks to the party, including a huge 27-inch touchscreen.

Can the HTC Desire X make a splash in the congested middle market, or will it sink without a trace?

With Windows 8 appearing as both a tablet and desktop OS, the hybrid tablet-PC idea is one that's reared its head again.
