Cowon D3 review

The Cowon D3 Plenue media player offers great video and audio quality. Unfortunately, its tweaked Android 2.3 Gingerbread software is buggy, making the device frustrating to use and difficult to recommend. Read more

Microsoft Zune (30GB) review

This is a different kind of portable media player: one that integrates wireless technology for Zune-to-Zune sharing of files, and one that works within an iTunes-like closed Zune Marketplace ecosystem. It has some weaknesses, notably over format support, but the Zune is a winner and its future is a bright one Read more

Creative Zen Vision:M (30GB) review

Though it's not as small as the new iPod, and its interface doesn't trump the Clickwheel, the 30GB Zen Vision:M is a real video player -- while on the iPod, video remains a novelty. It's slightly more expensive than Apple's world-conqueror, but the improved screen and number of video formats available more than make up for it Read more

Expensive it may be, but the Sony Walkman NWZ-X1060 offers some distinct advantages over its rivals. With its effective on-board noise-cancelling technology, great OLED touchscreen and truly excellent audio quality, the question is: can it dethrone the iPod touch? Read more

Cowon A3 review

The Cowon A3 is the most capable video player we've looked at to date. It has the best screen we have ever seen on any media player. Playback for most videos is smooth and glitch-free and audio quality is close to perfect, supporting multiple codecs, making it a killer for the price Read more

Archos 5 Internet Tablet review

Running on the Android operating system, the Archos 5 Internet Tablet offers both ease of use and highly impressive performance. You can't access the Android Market, but videos look stunning on its huge touchscreen, and its audio quality is better than that of any previous Archos device Read more

Philips GoGear HDD6320 Jukebox (30GB) review

Music lovers who want the iPod's style but would rather use a subscription service should give some consideration to Philips' GoGear HDD6320 Jukebox, a sexy black portable that offers 30GB of storage, photo viewing on a bright, clear screen and even a few tricks that the iPod hasn't learned Read more

Sony Walkman NWZ-A846 review

The Sony Walkman NWZ-A846 is a great audio player with a useful noise-cancellation feature and a brilliant OLED screen. It's expensive, but it's definitely worth a look. Read more
