budget

Need a tablet for the kids that they can access the net with and won't break the bank? Alcatel has something just for that on the way.

An Android phone with a fingerprint sensor and a big screen for under $100? It's possible, but you'll need to make a few compromises.

At $130, the Cygnett FreePlay cordless and wireless in-earphones look like a great bargain, as the Aussie peripheral maker builds something for budgets. But is it a great buy?

The mid-range squeeze may well and truly be changing what you get for a low price in the smartphone world, but at least one manufacturer is keen to stamp its name all over value, as Alcatel demonstrates.

Budget laptops tend to be a very “start of year” thing, and the return to school is to blame, something Kogan is capitalising on this year.

Need a laptop or tablet, but don’t have so much spare cash? As the end of the year gears up for a new one, Kogan is ready with a thrifty threesome.
