Samsung YP-K5 (2GB) review

Famous on account of a YouTube video, in which someone drives a truck over it, the Samsung YP-K5 is a surprisingly resilient flash-based MP3 player. The K5 is instantly recognisable because of its built-in speakers, so it's the most plausible option if you want to share your taste in music with the rest of the bus Read more

Roberts Rambler RD-76 review

Robert's DAB formula is an appealing one: take an old design from the catalogue, strip out the insides and replace the analogue circuitry with brand-new digital components. This continues with the RD-76, which is available in a rainbow of colours, and sounds perfectly acceptable for when you're doing the washing up Read more

PURE Digital PocketDAB 1500 review

Although pocket-sized DABs are still bedevilled by reception problems, the 1500 is a welcome improvement. It's rather bulky, but relatively solid and well constructed, with well organised controls and a clear, bright LCD that offers lots of information Read more

iubi Blue review

iubi has integrated Bluetooth support for wireless headphones in this 30GB portable video player/recorder -- but is this mere novelty, or do the Blue's impressive communication credentials set a new bar for future PVRs? It'll certainly give Archos something to think about Read more

PURE Digital One review

The first DAB we've seen for under £50, the One is available in garish pink as well as trendy black or white, and functions well -- it offers the usual crackle-free digital radio reception, it's sturdy enough for service in the kitchen or the garden shed and it's very easy to use Read more

Samsung YP-Z5 (2GB) review

It looks like a nano, and sounds like a nano, but the Z5 has two major differences. The interface isn't as intuitive as the iPod Click Wheel, but you don't need any proprietary software to load music onto it -- it's drag and drop on any OS. It might not be an iPod killer, but it gives Apple's baby a fair fight Read more

Sony ST-SDB900 review

Sony has delivered a strong offering to the entry-level hi-fi enthusiast. At this price, the ST-SDB900 is an exceptionally capable tuner, with ease of set-up and sound quality at the head of its list of attributes. The currently low bit rate of UK DAB broadcasts hinders its performance, though Read more

Yamaha CRX-M170 review

A mini system that will capably replace your existing hi-fi system in one fell swoop, the CRX-M170 integrates a 50W stereo amplifer with subwoofer output, a DAB radio and a CD player into a single unit -- we were surprised by what this fairly compact unit can deliver Read more

Sony Walkman NW-A1000 review

The NW-A1000 itself is gorgeous-looking, as well as being easy to use and having excellent sound definition and control. The playback volume is noticeably lower than its counterparts, but with the new Connect Player software, are the reasons not to buy Sony slowly evaporating? Read more

Freeplay Devo review

An ingenious, robust little gadget, the Freeplay Devo is an FM and DAB radio that, unusually, runs off a winding mechanism. It doesn't give much DAB for a minute's wind, but the FM will last a good hour, and it makes you feel very righteous Read more
