iRiver Clix 2 review

The Clix 2 -- officially called Clix 2nd Generation -- is the younger brother to the hugely successful and highly rated Clix, and it's so attractive, it actually looks slightly edible. It also offers a huge range of features, beautiful video playback and sumptuous sound -- a winner all round Read more

Sony Walkman NWZ-E453 review

The Sony Walkman NWZ-E453 isn't quite as slick or good-looking as its iPod rivals, but its simplicity, affordability and portability make it a worthy competitor none the less. Overall, it's a winner. 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

mobiBLU DAH-1500i (1GB) review

An MP3 player for those who like their tech to make them feel like they're in Gulliver's Travels, the DAH-1500i is a musical cube that'll fit in your closed fist. It offers a little screen, an FM tuner, drag-and-drop music management and 1GB of memory. Read more

iRiver S10 review

The competitively small iRiver S10 sets itself up for great things -- it touts plenty of features, a cool interface and great sound quality. It's not cheap, but as small MP3 players go, it's an attractive offering Read more

Kingston K-PEX Portable Media Player (2GB) review

The K-PEX, available in 1GB and 2GB capacities, offers tonnes of features at a decent price. Where it falls short (mainly in build quality and video support), it makes it up in its ease of use and the ability to display all sorts of music and video 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

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
