Good: The stylish Samsung Focus Flash runs Windows Phone 7.5 on a vibrant Super AMOLED screen, and has two cameras and a fast 1.4GHz processor. The speakerphone was surprisingly strong. The phone runs on AT&T's HSPA+ network.
Bad: The Focus Flash's call quality was a little iffy, the fuzzy VGA camera quality can give you the spins, and the screen really should be a little larger.
Bottom Line: The Samsung Focus Flash offers excellent value for its modest price, with a zippy 1.4GHz processor, two cameras, and a vivid screen, though the screen's smallish size and the phone's middling call quality are detractions. [Read more]

Good: The Roku LT is an extremely small Wi-Fi streaming-media box that costs only $50. It offers dozens of streaming video and audio services, including Netflix, Hulu Plus, Amazon Instant Video, HBO Go, Pandora, MOG, Rdio, and MLB.TV. It also supports older TVs using an included breakout cable.
Bad: The Roku LT isn't a good choice for playing your personal digital media collection. There's also no Ethernet port, so you'll need a solid Wi-Fi signal in your home theater.
Bottom Line: The Roku LT is a killer streaming-media box, offering tons of streaming video content, including favorites like Netflix, Amazon Instant, Hulu Plus, and Pandora, for just $50. [Read more]

Good: The Pandigital SuperNova tablet is light, smooth, and comfortable to hold. It includes a Micro-HDMI slot and two cameras.
Bad: The tablet's screen is dim and low-resolution with narrow viewing angles. There's no native access to the Android Market and the build quality feels plasticky and toylike.
Bottom Line: Though priced to compete, the Pandigital Supernova lacks the performance and features to seal the deal. [Read more]

LG Doubleplay (T-Mobile)

Good: The LG Doubleplay has a vibrant and sharp display, a 1GHz Qualcomm Scorpion processor, Android 2.3 Gingerbread, DLNA support, Wi-Fi calling, mobile hot-spot support, full Webkit browser with Adobe Flash, support for T-Mobile's 4G/HSPA+ network, a 5-megapixel camera with 720p HD video capture, and great call quality.
Bad: The LG Doubleplay's quirky dual screen and split keyboard design is a little too strange for us. It's a hefty and bulky handset, and has poor battery life.
Bottom Line: The LG Doubleplay has excellent features for a midrange Android smartphone, but its bizarre design is not for everyone. [Read more]

Good: The Samsung QX411-W01UB is extremely affordable while still offering a complete set of connection features, including WiMax and USB 3.0, plus a very sturdy design and long battery life.
Bad: This laptop has a finicky clickpad and a heavy, rather wide build.
Bottom Line: For a full set of features in a Core i5 laptop in the $600 range, it's extremely hard to beat the Samsung QX411-W01UB, which stands out for its great keyboard and impressive extras. [Read more]

Good: The Toshiba Satellite P775-S7320 has decent components and features for its price and is lightweight for a 17-inch laptop.
Bad: The design of the Satellite P775-S7320 is depressing as is its graphics performance.
Bottom Line: As long as your performance needs don't go far beyond basic productivity tasks, the Toshiba Satellite P775-S7320 is a decent big-screen laptop. [Read more]

LG 37LK450

Good: Numerous picture controls enable the inexpensive LG LK450 LCD TV to achieve accurate color. Surprisingly for a 60Hz TV, it handled 1080p/24 cadence properly, and its matte screen is a boon in bright rooms. It also exhibited a relatively uniform screen and offers better connectivity than most entry-level TVs.
Bad: The LG LK450's picture quality falls short of its entry-level competition, mainly because it produces a significantly lighter shade of black. Its image also suffers more when seen from off-angle. The TV's styling is lackluster and we noticed lag when using the menu system.
Bottom Line: While the picture quality of the LG LK450 has its strengths, they're overcome by its grayish reproduction of black. [Read more]
