Our take on the Lexibook Collins Bradford's Electronic Crossword Solver

This is a handheld electronic dictionary built around the Collins Bradford's Crossword Solver's Dictionary, made to settle disputed crossword answers without reaching for a book or phone. It searches by word pattern and by clue keyword, so partial answers and anagram-style clues are its main job. It is a single-purpose gadget: a phone app does the same lookup faster, but a dedicated keypad device keeps the crossword on paper and the screen off. It suits older solvers and gift buyers more than children, despite the young age rating on the box.

Best forOlder crossword solvers who prefer a keypad to a phone appGifts for parents or grandparents who do the daily crypticHouseholds that want a screen-free reference on the coffee table
Pros
  • Built-in Collins Bradford's dictionary, a standard reference for UK-style crosswords
  • Pattern search handles missing letters and partial answers
  • Keypad entry is quicker than scrolling a phone for some users
  • Standalone device: no app, account or connection needed
  • Compact plastic body that lives in a drawer or beside the armchair
Cons
  • Single purpose: a free phone app covers the same ground
  • Small screen limits how much of a long clue or answer list you see at once
  • Word list is fixed to the built-in edition, so newer entries may be missing
  • Clunky menu navigation compared with touchscreen search
  • Age rating of 3 undersells it; the interface assumes an adult solver

What reviewers say

Buyers tend to be buying for an older relative rather than for themselves.

What people mention
  • Lookup speedMixedOwners find pattern searches fast once learned, but menu steps slow down simple lookups.
  • Screen sizeCriticisedThe small display shows few results at a time, so long answer lists need scrolling.
  • Word listMixedThe Collins Bradford's content covers standard crosswords well, but newer or obscure entries can be absent.
  • BuildMixedThe plastic body is light and portable but feels basic for a single-purpose device.
  • Ease of useMixedOlder solvers take to the keypad, while others find the interface dated next to a phone app.

Questions and answers

Does it work for American-style crosswords?
It is built on the Collins Bradford's Crossword Solver's Dictionary, which leans British. UK cryptic and general-knowledge clues fit it best; US-style puzzles may miss some answers.
Can it search by pattern with missing letters?
Yes. You enter known letters and wildcards to list matching words, which is the main reason to own it over a paper dictionary.
Does it need batteries or a connection?
It runs on its own batteries with no internet or app. Check the box for the battery type before first use.
Is it suitable for children, given the age rating?
The age rating is misleading. The dictionary and interface are aimed at adult solvers, so it is a poor fit for young children.
How does it compare with a crossword app on a phone?
A phone app is faster and updated, and often free. This device wins only if you want a screen-free, single-purpose keypad beside your puzzle.
Can I update the dictionary?
No. The word list is fixed to the edition built into the device, so it will not gain new entries over time.
Where is the Lexibook Collins Bradford's Electronic Crossword Solver cheapest?
At Nordstrom, for $39.99, as of our latest check.
