Philips GoGear Muse review

The GoGear Muse is Philips' best portable media player to date, featuring a number of enhancements over previous models, including a redesigned user interface and slicker design. It doesn't offer the best audio quality we've ever heard, but its format support is hard to beat Read more

Apple iPod shuffle (September '09, 3rd gen, 4GB) review

Apple's latest iPod shuffle line-up offers two storage capacities -- 2GB or 4GB -- and five colours. Apart from that, it's business as usual. But that's not necessarily a bad thing -- the shuffle's tiny dimensions are certainly pleasing, and its basic feature set will appeal to those who appreciate simplicity Read more

Apple iPod touch (3rd gen, 64GB) review

Apple's third-generation iPod touch may lack a camera, but it's the best portable media player that you can currently get your hands on. As well as sporting a number of useful new features, such as voice control, a faster processor means it performs even more smoothly than before Read more

Apple iPod nano (5th gen, with video camera) review

The fifth-generation iPod nano is the best version yet, packing in plenty of features, including a video camera, while retaining the straightforward functionality that's a hallmark of Apple devices. It's not perfect, though, and owners of previous models will have little reason to upgrade, but it's a great device nonetheless Read more

Sony Walkman NWZ-S545 (S series) review

One of two new additions to the S-series Walkman line, the 16GB NWZ-S545 MP3 and video player offers excellent audio, great battery life and a large screen. It should also be available at a lower price than its predecessor, the NWZ-S639F, so the fact that it has fewer features shouldn't be a massive concern Read more

Philips GoGear Vibe review

The GoGear Vibe budget MP3 player compensates for its deeply irritating navigation system by offering a well-rounded feature set and good sound quality. Photo- and video-playback capability are of limited use on a 38mm colour screen, but Philips deserves credit for squeezing in such features at this price Read more

Sony Walkman NWZ-S544 (S series) review

The 8GB, flash-based Sony Walkman NWZ-S544 is a solid entry-level MP3 and video player. Although it's missing some of the previous generation's features, it offers superb sound quality, excellent battery life and a big, bright screen. It's also easy to use and attractive Read more

Philips GoGear Opus review

The GoGear Opus manages to stand out from the crowd of iPod nano rivals by offering some impressive extra features, such as support for the BBC's iPlayer and the ability to record FM radio. The screen isn't great, but sound quality is good and it's a decent media player overall Read more

Sony Walkman NWZ-X1050 (X series) review

The Sony Walkman NWZ-X1050 is a pricy portable media player, but it offers some distinct advantages over its rivals. Chief among them are its effective on-board noise-cancelling technology, excellent OLED touchscreen and truly fantastic audio quality. But is it better than the iPod touch? Read more

Samsung YP-U5 review

Those seeking an affordable secondary MP3 player could do far worse than the YP-U5. Its battery life is good, it offers above-average sound quality and it supports a decent range of audio formats, although AAC is notably missing. A fitness app also makes it well-suited to gym fanatics Read more
