Sony Walkman NWZ-A829 review

Sony's players never fail to win style points, and we're definitely impressed by the classy look of the new Walkman NWZ-A829 music and video player. It blows us away with its stellar audio performance and vivid, bright screen quality, making it one of our favourites Read more

iRiver B20 review

Besides MP3s, the iRiver B20 plays both DAB and FM radio. A massive 170mm telescopic aerial swivels around the back to provide excellent sound quality for when you're in transit. It also has a built-in voice recorder, flash games and an alarm, making this a fully-stocked player Read more

Cowon iAudio 6 (4GB) review

Here's one for the iPod-hating underground -- a 4GB microdrive player with all kinds of features and customisability. It supports subscription audio as well as video and photos and FM recording, and it has a colourful 33mm OLED screen. The touch-sensitive interface takes some getting used to, but the audio quality is superb Read more

Apple iPod (80GB, video) review

The '5.5-gen' iPod -- wiser and more able than its one-year-old predecessor -- gains many incremental improvements, including a brighter screen and better video battery life, but probably the most appealing aspect is the tantalising price, especially for the 30GB version Read more

Apple iPod U2 Special Edition (30GB, video) review

The latest iPod U2 shares most of its characteristics with the fifth-generation video iPod but boasts a few key differences. The most noticeable is the Ferrari-red scrollwheel contrasted against the black body, but it also has the signatures of all four U2 band members laser-etched in the iPod's shiny, dark metal rear casing 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

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
