Samsung YH-J70

While Apple went out for minimal features in order to keep its iPods looking zen (no offence, Creative), Samsung, like most Korean companies, prefers to play it by the numbers (of features).

Apple iPod killers 2005

We know what you're thinking: Why mention the iPod in the same breath as digital audio players from Archos, and Creative when the iPod doesn't even play the WMA format?

Reviews

  • Archos AV500 Mobile DVR (30GB)

    If we could choose only one PVP, it'd be the Archos AV500 Mobile DVR.

  • Toshiba Gigabeat F60

    Toshiba Gigabeat F60

  • Apple iPod Nano (2GB)

    Thanks to its limited capacity, the gorgeous Apple iPod Nano isn't for everybody, but it sets the standard for MP3 players to come.

  • Olympus M:robe 500i (20GB)

    The M:robe 500i is a beautiful-looking, multifunctional device, but we can't recommend it due to poor overall performance.

  • iRiver H10 (5 GB)

    The iRiver H10 isn't perfect by any means, but its advanced features, useful touch pad, and nice colour screen keep it on a par with similarly priced competition.

  • Sony Network Walkman NW-HD1 (20GB)

    The inconvenience of ATRAC3 conversion and a lofty price tag mar this beautifully designed player's reputation.

  • Creative Zen Touch (20GB)

    Featuring a new vertical scroll bar that is reminiscent of a laptop's touchpad, the Creative Zen Touch is targeted at consumers who prize ease of usage and long battery life.

  • Creative Zen Touch (20GB)

    Finally, here's an MP3 player with a touch-sensitive navigation control that might come close to the iPod scrollwheel's ease of use.

Features

  • Portable video player powerhouses

    Long before the video-enabled Apple iPod hit the market, companies such as Archos and Creative established themselves as portable video pioneers with the launch of a variety of devices that played video, in addition to MP3s and digital audio.

  • MP3 players with large screens

    MP3 players with monster screens. Watch movies! View photos! Scare the dickens out of the iPod Shuffle with these big-screen players.

  • MP3 players that play video

    Portable video players are hogging the headlines right now, but Apple's latest iPod is certainly not the only device in town.

  • In-flight entertainment: best MP3 players and PVPs for air travel

    When you're gearing up for air travel, be sure to pack some digital entertainment along with your travel pillow.
