CNET Reviews - Most Popular Computer Peripherals
| Rank | Most Popular Titles | |
| 1 | Samsung SyncMaster XL2370 The Samsung SyncMaster XL2370 looks great, performs well, and hits the right price point. |
|
| 2 | HP Officejet Pro 8500 Wireless The HP Officejet Pro 8500 wireless makes a convincing inkjet argument for offices with a high volume of prints. With a function touch screen, multiple networking options, and an astoundingly fast print speed, it makes perfect sense to give this workhorse an Editors' Choice award. |
|
| 3 | Dell UltraSharp U2410 The Dell UltraSharp U2410 is a feature-rich monitor that performs great while watching movies and playing games. |
|
| 4 | Z-2300 2.1 Speaker System If you're looking for a set of 2.1 speakers, buy these. It's as simple as that. |
|
| 5 | Epson Stylus NX515 (printer/copier/scanner) The Epson Stylus NX515 is a capable machine that will improve the efficiency of any office or work-at-home setup. Not only is it a lightning-fast all-in-one, but it also has a broader range of features than most other $150 AIOs. As long as you don't need a full creative software suite, the Epson Stylus NX515 will make a dependable sidekick to your computer. |
|
| 6 | HP Photosmart Premium Fax All-in-One The HP Photosmart Premium Fax All-in-One printer makes it easy to increase productivity thanks to its streamlined user interface. The fax, copy, print, and scanning features boast helpful extras like double-sided printing, wireless connectivity, separate photo trays, and quick-access control panel buttons, all while maintaining lab-quality photos and a low cost to print. We highly recommend this printer to anyone who can benefit from its multifunctionality. |
|
| 7 | Apple Magic Mouse Apple's new wireless Magic Mouse gets a sleek makeover and even has multitouch controls, but it's better as a portable laptop companion rather than a full-size desktop accessory. The swiping gestures add interactivity to Web browsing and media, but the awkwardly narrow single button design leaves us reaching for better mice from Logitech and others. |
|
| 8 | Dell SP2309W With its low price, great performance, and many features, the Dell SP2309W is a sound buy for a 23-inch monitor. |
|
| 9 | Dell UltraSharp 2408WFP The 24-inch Dell UltraSharp 2408WFP display delivers across the board in performance, design, and features. It excelled with movies and games, making it not only an excellent choice as an entertainment display, but also great for everyday Windows tasks. |
|
| 10 | Canon Pixma MX860 The Canon Pixma MX860's auto-document feeder, large LCD screen, and quick print speeds are sure to increase your productivity, but it also includes plenty of software to nourish your creative interests. At $199, this multifunctional printer earns our recommendation. |
|
| 11 | Dell G2410 The plain-looking Dell G2410 offers stellar performance and an energy conscious interface at a low price. |
|
| 12 | Samsung SyncMaster T240HD With tons of connection options, great performance, and useful features like an HDTV tuner, the Samsung SyncMaster T240HD display is an excellent bargain. |
|
| 13 | Canon Pixma MX330 The Canon Pixma MX330 doesn't produce the best quality prints, but you won't find a more versatile printer in the sub-$150 category. An auto-document feeder, 1.8-inch LCD screen, and easy-to-use features make it an excellent choice for creative homes on a budget. |
|
| 14 | Logitech MX 1100 Cordless Laser Mouse Logitech's MX 1100 wireless laser mouse is the best in its class thanks to a wide array of features that make navigation easier. You have to pay for all of that capability, but anyone who puts serious time in front of a PC will appreciate what this mouse can do. |
|
| 15 | Logitech Performance Mouse MX Logitech has met and surpassed Microsoft's recent mouse technology innovations by introducing the most versatile mouse sensor on the market in its new Performance Mouse MX. But even if you don't have a glass table crying out to become a workspace, this high-end input device has enough features and cushy design to make it a justifiable indulgence for anyone who takes their cursor control seriously. |
|
| 16 | ViewSonic VP2365wb The ViewSonic VP2365wb has solid performance, but its low brightness gives images an overall dull look. |
|
| 17 | SoundSticks II 3-Piece Speaker System The Harman Kardon SoundSticks II match performance with attractive visual design, a combination that always makes our hearts beat a little faster. They're nearly perfect, save for a few design flaws. |
|
| 18 | Canon Pixma MX7600 The Canon Pixma MX7600 multifunction is a huge improvement over the previous model. With additional features such as an autoduplexer, increased faxing options, and an upgraded control cockpit, we have no problem recommending the MX7600. |
|
| 19 | Logitech Cordless Desktop Wave Pro Although you don't get a price break by buying the package instead of the individual devices, we still consider this one of the best mouse and keyboard packages on the market. It combines an even better version of our favorite mouse and an equally adept keyboard at a very reasonable price. |
|
| 20 | HP Officejet J6480 The HP Officejet J6480 has a lot of built-in features that are rarely found included in a $200 printer. Shoppers looking for an all-inclusive multifunctional unit will be impressed with the robust hardware and rich print quality. |
|
| 21 | LG Flatron W2486L The LG Flatron W2486L is a great LED-backlit monitor that few will choose over its main competitor. |
|
| 22 | HP Color LaserJet CP2025n Although the HP CP2025n is rather slow to print black documents and is missing supplementary features such as USB-direct printing and wireless, the color laser shines in output quality, and the software holds your hand through a somewhat daunting learning curve. The CP2025n also has a high monthly duty-cycle, so we recommend it to anyone hunting for a workhorse printer to complement an equally diligent work environment. |
|
| 23 | Dell S2409W The Dell S2409W is a 24-incher that sacrifices features for price, but makes up for it in performance and ease of use. |
|
| 24 | Samsung SyncMaster P2370HD The Samsung SyncMaster P2370HD is a great choice for those looking for a 23-inch monitor-HDTV combo. |
|
| 25 | Lexmark X7675 Pro Aside from a few design hang-ups and a slower than average output speed, the Lexmark X7675 Professional all-in-one printer is a cut above other multifunctional printers. Its excellent quality prints, easy-to-set-up wireless connectivity, and generous five-year warranty catapult it to the top of our list of favorites. |
