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.
Nokia X6

Nokia has announced its next Comes with Music handset, and it looks to be the goods. Gone is the resistive touchscreens of its earlier models, plus it has a whopping 32GB of storage to keep your music on.
Nokia 5230

Nokia looks set to flood the market with its growing touchscreen line-up across all the major segments, with the 5230 filling the budget model gap.
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.
