Reviews of latest tech gadgets for Christmas

A quick look at some of the latest consumer technology products.

MUSIC FOR YOUR EARS

Philips has released a new range of bluetooth headphones, suitable for your mobile, MP3 player or computer.

The SHB6100 headset features a neck strap design, discrete built-in microphone and audio controls. A bluetooth dongle is also supplied, which plugs into any "bluetoothless" computer or MP3 audio output.

SwitchStream software alerts you to an incoming phone call and allows you to quickly switch while listening to music on your computer.

What: Philips SHB6100 headphones.

RRP: $199.95.

DVD VIEWING ON THE GO

With summer holidays approaching, the Sony Portable DVD player may be the thing to keep the children entertained on the road.

The player includes a seven-inch LCD widescreen, USB port for MP3 playback, two headphone jacks and weighs only 730g.

The battery provides five hours of viewing time, or you can use the car battery charger for longer trips.

What: Sony Portable DVD Player DVP-FX720W.

RRP: $349.

DON'T WAIT FOR AN IPHONE

You don't have to wait for Apple's iPhone to get your hands on a sexy touch screen phone. Taiwan's HTC is soon releasing its Touch II mobile phone in Australia.

The Touch has a 2.8 inch touch screen, two megapixel camera, bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity, and microSD card slot.

The most striking feature of the phone is its user interface, which features a three-dimensional cube that you rotate using your finger to select various menus.

What: HTC Touch mobile phone.

RRP: $699.

FULL ON HD PICTURE

Samsung has released its latest range of Full HD plasma screen televisions with the P9 series.

Both models feature 1080p resolution, a huge contrast ratio of 15,000:1 and a brightness of 1000 candelas per square metre. A built-in silhouette editor ensures the tone and shape of images remain sharp.

With an integrated HD tuner and three HDMI inputs, the P9 will also minimise the numbers of cords behind your TV unit.

What: Samsung PS50P91FDX plasma television.

RRP: $5,299.
