Advantages: Better prices, good deals

Disadvantages: Warranty and returning problems

Dixons is an electrical store selling numerous goods such as TVs, audio equipment, games consoles, dishwashers and more. It has usually been like Currys and PC World in the way that their prices are quite high but recently they have lowered them and are becoming more competitive, especially online and in the video game department. Their games and accessories are fairly cheap now and much better than in Currys. Hopefully the others follow suit.

Their laptops and TVs are also reasonably priced and you can get a good offer for top brands, like Samsung and Panasonic. Usually you can expect to get high quality from these models so it's a safe bet buying from Dixons, instead of Novatech or other own-brand technology. They had a 50" Samsung for only £700 over Christmas which was a pretty good deal if you were looking for a 720p model.

Like Currys and PC World, their warranty system is not very good and they should really sort that out. Even returning an item seemed like a massive deal when my wireless adaptor broke. I would recommend buying products from their website if you want to return them easily and sometimes the prices are a little lower.

Summary: An improvement on Currys and PC World
