Reviews

  • Navman MY500XT

    Improved, but still deeply flawed. We'd suggest checking out the lesser fruit from the Navman tree first.

  • Sennheiser HD 438

    The HD 438 just falls shy of a fully immersive audio experience, but these mid-range headphones are very comfortable for the home listener.

  • Creative Zen X-Fi2 32GB

    The Creative Zen X-Fi2 is the company's first touchscreen MP3 player which includes expandable storage and native support for FLAC.

  • 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.

  • Bowers & Wilkins Panorama

    Despite a couple of flaws, the B&W Panorama is one of the best soundbars we've ever heard. It's time to save your pocket money.

  • Bose QuietComfort 15

    While they're no bargain, the Bose QuietComfort 15s currently offer the best sound and silencing capabilities in a pair of noise-cancelling headphones.

  • 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.
