Reviews

  • Philips GoGear Aria (8GB)

    The GoGear Aria may be cheaper than a comparable iPod Nano, but it's leagues behind in terms of quality.

  • Philips GoGear Vibe

    The Philips GoGear Vibe isn't the best budget MP3 player we've seen, but its enviable colour screen, photo viewer and video playback make it one of the most well-rounded in the price range.

  • Altec Lansing Mix iMT800

    The design of Altec Lansing's Mix iMT800 may not appeal to everyone, but its winning combination of good performance, lots of oomph and portability makes it one of the best iPod speaker options out there.

  • Ultrasone Zino

    Ultrasone's Zino headphones strike the perfect middle ground of performance, style and convenience for earbud-eschewing connoisseurs of portable audio.

  • Apple iPhone 3GS (32GB)

    The iPhone 3GS is faster and we appreciate the new features and extended battery life, but call quality and 3G reception still need improvement.

  • Cowon D2+

    The Cowon D2+ is a sturdy little touchscreen MP3 player with flexible sound enhancement settings and useful features, but it hasn't changed much from the 2007 version.

  • Sony Walkman X-series (16GB) NWZ-X1050

    Great sound, brilliant OLED touchscreen, noise cancellation and as much YouTube as your Wi-Fi can handle. Shame about the extortionate price.

  • BMW 320i Executive Touring (2009)

    It may be slow and the options pricey, but with the new iDrive system the updated 3-Series will sate your tech and luxury urges.
