Klipsch Image S3 review

The Klipsch Image S3s are a fantastic option if you want to upgrade from the abysmal earphones that are bundled with most MP3 players. They sound good, feel comfortable and won't break the bank. 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

Philips AE5200 review

The battery- or mains-powered AE5200 portable radio offers brilliant design touches, good looks and excellent FM reception for a reasonable price. Its DAB performance could be better and it eats batteries quickly, but it's an appealing machine nonetheless Read more

AKG K 518 LE review

The K 518 LEs are well worth a look if you're seeking portable earphones that you don't have to jam inside your head. They offer a compact, folding and stylish design, coming in a range of colours. They can make a few songs sound muddy, but their generally solid audio quality means they should appeal to listeners with eclectic taste Read more

An iPod speaker system and FM radio for little over fifty quid, Gear4's HouseParty 3 will get you in the right frame of mind for the day ahead, reaching volumes that are not for the faint-hearted Read more

Gear4 StreetParty Size 0 review

This is a speaker system for anyone on the move. As its name implies, it has a supermodel-slim design and will easily squeeze into your full rucksack. When you're heading for a weekend in the Lake District, these speakers stow away and provide good sound quality for small spaces Read more

Urbanears Plattan review

The Plattan headphones from new kid on the block Urbanears don't always produce the clearest audio, but they look stylish, are fairly affordable and seem durable. If you mainly listen to hip-hop and want headphones with plenty of bass, volume and style, the Plattans could be a suitable option 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
