MOTO Development Group unveils a video and photos of a smartphone touchscreen performance test between the Google Nexus One, the Apple iPhone, the Motorola Droid, and the HTC Verizon Droid Eris.

To conduct the smartphone touchscreen test, consumers open a basic drawing program and draw a few diagonal lines drawn across the screen.

Apple iPhone review

Posted by: Mark Peters Thursday 1st, January 2009

The British company Continental Mobiles has been selling exclusive cell phones and iPods online since September 2006. Gold versions of various cell phone brands and models are being sold. In addition, Continental Mobiles offer various mobile phones with embedded diamonds. All purchases are delivered with a so-called 'Gold Card', which stands for the exclusively British manufacturing of the product. Even though the Apple iPhone in itself is already a unique device, the combination with the additions of Continental Mobiles ensures that you, as a user, are guaranteed not to meet a similar device.

Olympus EVOLT E-30 review

Posted by: Dennis Hissink Wednesday 31st, December 2008

The new Olympus Evolt E-30 is built based on the FourThirds system, continuing the line that was built-up over the last few years according to the expectations. The E30 is quite similar to the high-end camera; the E-3, although it comes with a less all-round magnesium housing. The E30's housing is made of plastic, strengthened by fiberglass. The water resistant and dustproof features of the housing are exclusively reserved for the housing of the E-3. The viewfinder of the Olympus E-30 offers approximately 98% coverage, whilst the E-3 offers 100%. And there are a few more setting possibilities on the E-3 that take things a bit further compared to the Olympus E-30.

Canon SX10 IS review

Posted by: Mark Peters Friday 26th, December 2008

The Canon PowerShot SX10 IS Megazoom camera is the successor to the Canon PowerShot S5 IS. When it comes to appearance, the Canon SX10 IS looks a lot like its predecessor, but if you thought its size would have decreased somewhat, you’re wrong; the camera has even slightly grown. However; you do get something in return. The 12x optical zoom lens has been replaced by a 20x version, which keeps Canon nicely in pace with its rivals. Thankfully, Canon’s image stabilization system supports the zoom lens in order to be able to work with it. Moreover, the resolution has increased from 8 to 10 Megapixels. And although we did not list an increase on our priority list, the image sensor has been enlarged too. A nice bit of compensation.

ATP GPS receiver test

Posted by: Mark Peters Thursday 18th, December 2008

The ATP GPS Photo Finder Mini has a compact size, as the name already reveals. The rectangular black lack design of the body feels like plastic and is extremely light when it comes to weight. The carbine clip makes it ever so easy to attach this GPS device to your trousers. And thanks to its light weight, 40 grams, you don't notice the GPS device dangling down there. Besides the GPS device itself, a multi-functional docking station is included in the package. And that is not all, also a battery charger with USB connection and users guides in both paper version and CD format are included.

Panasonic L10 Review

Posted by: Dennis Hissink Saturday 5th, January 2008

The Panasonic L10 is clearly ranked below the L1 but does offer more pixels. No less than 10 Megapixels are found on the new Live MOS sensor. Of course the Panasonic L10 has been built according to the FourThirds System. A new lens has been introduced together with the camera, naturally equipped with Mega O.I.S. Like the L1, the Panasonic Lumix DMC L10 features a Leica kit lens with a zoom range of 14-50mm, equivalent of 28-100mm on a 35mm camera. The main difference is the light sensitivity.

The unbiased assessment of consumer electronics like digital cameras, DSLRs, mobile phones, gadgets, lenses, software, notebooks, etc. remains our core business. Despite the heavy workload and the long hours outside the office attending various product launches, press events and shows such as CES, PMA, IFA, Photokina and Photo Imaging Expo, we will continue to publish product reviews on a weekly basis. The specialized DIWA Lab plays a central role and provides the DIWA members the opportunity to combine their experience with a test sample, with the intensive technical DIWA test lab results. The specifications of today's electronics, with a few exceptions here and there, hardly differ from each other, but the standardized technical lab tests are able to expose the exact differences. The new DSLRs, compact cameras and mobile phones will be tested intensively in the DIWA lab, so that consumers can count on unbiased test results during their quest for the ideal product.
