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

Archos Gmini XS 100 review
Archos's new svelte, eye-catching music player is like a smaller, lighter version of Apple's iPod Mini. While the 3GB Gmini XS 100 doesn't come packed with extras such as an FM tuner and line-in or voice recording, it boasts an intuitive interface, great music-management features, compatibility with subscription-based music and excellent sound quality Read more

Oakley Thump 2 (1GB) review
The Oakley Thump 2 offers something that no other MP3 player has: UV and blue-light protection. That's because it cleverly builds a flash-based player into the frame of a pair of sunglasses for cordless on-the-go listening. It's also incredibly expensive Read more

Creative Zen Stone with Speaker review
The iPod shuffle had better watch out -- the Creative Zen Stone with Speaker is an updated version of the Zen Stone with -- you guessed it -- a teeny speaker on its backside. In either a 1GB or 2GB version, it's both affordable and good looking, so the competition is heating up Read more

Samsung YP-P2 review
You'll find the gesture-based navigation system from Samsung's YP-P2 refreshing. Navigating the stylishly-animated menu simply takes a stroke of your finger. You'll find impressive Bluetooth and FM radio as well as video playback, so we think you'll be gesturing with a thumbs up Read more

Sony NWZ-B133 Walkman review
Sony's B-series Walkman is tiny and cheap, and is clearly designed for on-the-go use with its built-in USB interface and simple design. While it offers a good range of features, such as an integrated FM tuner and voice recording, it's not laden down with frills. The sound quality is good, though not spectacular Read more

iRiver T60 review
iRiver's T60 may look look like a popular prism-shaped chocolate bar, but the company has a great track record of making players with brilliant audio quality. Can it keep it up with this tiny, AAA-powered flash model? Read more

Sony NWZ-E436F Walkman review
It can't be avoided: any new MP3 player is in direct competition with the Apple iPod, and manufacturers are well aware of this fact. The Sony E-Series Walkman is just as easy to use as the iPod nano, offers a similar array of features and delivers great sound quality -- but costs less Read more

Cowon iAudio U3 (2GB) review
The U3 features a dazzling, albeit tiny (just 30mm across), colour screen and video playback capabilities -- amazing for a player of this size. It sounds great, too. However, it's only £20 less than a 30GB video iPod and you can't use it with subscription services Read more
