Reviews

  • iRiver Lplayer (8GB)

    The iRiver Lplayer is a very likeable player with a decent feature set and an ideal choice for anyone seeking a small and simple MP3 player for music. The best reason to choose it is its small size and intuitive navigation system.

  • Archos 405

    Though it lacks the features of the Archos 605, the 405 maintains the company's reputation for making high-quality portable video and music players.

  • Creative Zen Digital Media Player

    Effectively a member of the Vision series, the Zen Digital Media Player handles most popular music and videos formats in a handy credit card sized form factor.

  • Creative Zen Vision:W

    The bulky but easy-to-use Creative Zen Vision:W and its nice screen will dazzle video lovers who don't require video recording.

  • Creative Zen V Plus (2GB)

    Small, smooth, colourful and charming; the Zen V Plus is the cutest MP3 player Creative has come up with so far.

  • Samsung YP-F2 (1GB)

    The Samsung YP-F2 is ideal for those looking for an ultra-small and stylish MP3 player, but it's lacking a few features similarly priced competitors have.

  • Gear4 HouseParty II

    You probably couldn't get the HouseParty II to get the whole house rockin', but as a standalone dock and mid-range speaker solution it's pleasantly easy to use.

  • 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.
