    What a useless post.

    Wireless surround sound systems

    If you must go wireless then I'm out as I don't have any knowledge on them, however if you're open to wired then for £400-500 you can bag a better system than any of the above (no offence guys), but it's worth reading up a bit before doing so!

    AV Receiver

    As Al G says BK seem to be the ones that everyone buys under £600-700 or so. I personally have a £300 Wharfedale Powercube SPC 10 which is a 150w 10" down-firing sub, I like the sub but I really have no experiences of anything better such as BK, only worse ones like the Tannoy or Onkyo £100...

    Tablets

    I would say it's easily £80 better, retina is worlds apart from the original screen. I agree the old screen is horrible. My favourite is the Nexus 10 screen, even sharper again and a better aspect ratio imho.

    Tablets

    The Nexus tablets for me are the only real competitor to the iPad. The Samsung Galaxy series are good but you'll find side-by-side against the Nexus' that the 7" and 10" just don't perform anywhere near as well. For those that tried Android tabs but haven't experienced the Nexus I suggest you...

    Do you specifically need wireless? It severely limits your options.

    AV Receiver

    To be fair I have the 1912 and I don't feel like mine is outdated at all. Good sound is good sound at the end of the day, plus mine still does Airplay/DLNA, internet radio, Phone App Remote, Web Control, etc. The biggest thing for me is the sound quality over my old Onkyo TX-SR308, especially no...

    AV Receiver

    My brother-in-law has just bought a Sonos system which are great, but even though he's spent about £700 on it, it still doesn't sound as good as my Denon AVR1912 Wharfedale Fronts and Powercube 10 Sub. If I was in the market now I'd get the Denon 2113 without blinking.

    Without even looking at the specs I can tell you that will completely trounce any one-box system.

    Wtf? As if someone's just going to give you access to their media collection and let you rape their upstream bandwidth.

    Android Help (Specifically S3)

    I'm running official 4.1.2 on my S3, has some new features over 4.1.1 such as new gallery, new camera features (low light etc), multi-window etc. I don't know why you have just bought an iP5 if you wanted an S3. And furthermore, you say you HAD an S3 and got rid of it after a week and went back...

    Surround Sound Advice

    What's your budget mate? You really do need to have a figure in mind in my opinion. I've never listened to a Teac AVR, so I would google some reviews if you could. However, on paper those specs look fantastic for £100, normally you'd be paying £200+ for Dolby PL IIz and 7 x 100w channels. Do...

    iPhone 5 or Samaung Galaxy S3?

    Are you saying the Nexus is genuinely much better built than the S3? I haven't had chance to hold one yet. Totally agree. Had I gone toward the whole Mac > iPad > iPhone back when I had an iphone I wouldn't have probably changed so easily, but due to me being a geek and enjoying building PCs...

    iPhone 5 or Samaung Galaxy S3?

    Snoop - totally agree. When I first purchased my 3GS I was a full on Apple convert, looking at purchasing a Macbook and iMac when I could afford. I know what you mean about wanting the proper Android experience. I bought my S3 about a month before the N4 was unveiled and I considered chopping...

    iPhone 5 or Samaung Galaxy S3?

    I think the hype they surround around each product is actually the best thing that Apple do, it's what they're experts at. Also, you're saying that the iPhone is better than the S3 because you had a completely different phone that froze all the time. Doesn't really make sense. My mum and two...

    Bloody hell. I'm on 11mb at home and think it's fantastic! I can download a 1080p movie in about 2 hours. But then again, I've never had the ability to download the same file in around 20 minutes which is what I'm guessing you're used to. That would be awesome!

    To be fair my 3mb at work now feels to me the same way 56k felt to me all those years ago. Amazing how perspectives changes, this connection is effectively about 70 times faster!

    Oldskool internet Speeds.

    Lol yes! On 56k I used to connect at about 41k on my PCI modem, that would get me a ping of about 180. I remember being really jealous because my mate bought an external v92 modem and connected at about 52k and his ping was always around 140. He was the boss!

    I'm currently on 12mb which I consider quite fast cos we're out in the sticks. It's with Sky and is unthrottled (for downloads) at all times which is great. At work we have a 15 machine running on only 3mb, it's an absolute pain in the arse. Can't do anything about it though, no way to upgrade.

    Lost photos and calendar etc

    I'm using a Galaxy S3. Which bit is the worst bit of advice I can give? One, two or three? With regards to the camera, I stand by my comment. My 7 year old Ixus 50 produces better images than my S3, especially if it's anything but a bright environment. Phone cameras are fine for taking random...

    Lost photos and calendar etc

    Firstly - stop using your phone as a camera, they're s**t compared to even a £100 point and shoot! :) Secondly - I thought they were stored on the SD Card? If not, what have you done to wipe them? A factory reset would not delete photos iirc. Thirdly - For your calendar/diary use Google...

    High power LED spotlight lamps?

    £100 is good for 9. I've been paying about £18 each for Philips which are the best make for this type of stuff.

    Nexus Madness

    I don't agree at all, for me it's a DIRECT competitor. Other than the famous apple build quality, what makes it any different?

    Nexus Madness

    Didn't Asus make the 7 not Samsung? Or am I missing something? I agree with what you are saying though, stupid Google missed a trick there.

    Nexus Madness

    Sod rooting, can't be arsed any more and I can't see the advantage in it nowadays. For me personally anyway. Stock FTW.
