Reviews

  • Philips GoGear Mix (4GB)

    The GoGear Mix is exactly what people are looking for in an MP3 player. It's easy to load with music, simple to operate and a pleasure to listen to.

  • 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 DC350 iPod Dock

    The DC350 features a wide-range of connectivity options, but is far too expensive for the low quality sound it produces.

  • Philips GoGear Opus

    The slow interface probably kills what would have been an excellent player with decent format support and great sound quality.

  • Altec Lansing Orbit iM237

    We like the new and improved version of Altec Lansing's portable single speaker, the Orbit MP3, better than the previous model, but it costs a bit more.

  • Virgin VMX

    The VMX is a phone with many shortcomings, but most of these are outweighed by the AU$99 price tag. For most people who just need the basics, the VMX will do the trick.

  • Meridian Sooloos Music Server

    The Meridian Sooloos is a modular music server with an easy-to-use interface and one of the best Random modes we've seen. The downside? It's expensive.

  • Sony Ericsson W302 Walkman

    The Sony Ericsson W302 Walkman delivers good sound quality in a neat design for a low price. For those who want a decent, inexpensive phone that plays music, it's a good choice, but don't bother with the poor camera and web browser.
