Apple iPod touch (2nd gen) review

Apple has given its second-generation iPod touch everything it's got. It's hard to imagine, but the design is even better and its features are responsive as ever -- all this despite a price cut. It's got podcast support, video playback, a Web browser, photo viewer and an email reader, to name a few Read more

Apple iPod nano (4th gen) review

Apple seems to release new iPod models every other day, but this newest iPod nano really does impress. At just 6mm thick, it's the thinnest one they've ever made -- but there's more to it than that. New features include the Genius playlist tool, tilt sensor and capabilities for vision-impaired people Read more

Apple iPod touch review

Meet the iPhone's slimmer baby brother, the iPod touch. Despite its demure size -- both in stature and in memory -- it still manages to cram in Web browsing and iTunes over Wi-Fi. This is an unquestionably cool product that continues Apple's legacy of sleek, innovative design Read more

Apple iPod nano (3rd gen, video) review

With its wider, square design and its video playback capability, the latest iPod nano is more like a 'light' version of the iPod classic. Despite its changes, the nano is still one of the smallest, thinnest and most exquisitely designed MP3 players on the market Read more

Cowon D2+ review

The D2+ is a great touchscreen MP3 player that's packed full of useful features and offers outstanding audio quality, thanks to its sound-enhancement settings. Users of its predecessor, the iAudio D2, won't notice a great deal of changes though, and the lack of AAC support is hard to justify Read more

Philips GoGear Spark review

The tiny, wearable GoGear Spark offers a good feature set and decent sound quality for the price. One of the first MP3 players in its class to offer a colour display, the Spark's unique design and excellent battery life help to make it a real rival to the iPod shuffle Read more

Philips GoGear Vibe review

The GoGear Vibe budget MP3 player compensates for its deeply irritating navigation system by offering a well-rounded feature set and good sound quality. Photo- and video-playback capability are of limited use on a 38mm colour screen, but Philips deserves credit for squeezing in such features at this price 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

Apple iPod shuffle (3rd generation, 4GB) review

The third-generation iPod shuffle is the smallest MP3 player currently available, and only slightly larger than a paper clip. While its unobtrusive design feels sturdy and the voice feature that tells you what you're listening to is useful, quirky controls mean it won't be for everyone Read more

Philips GoGear SA4020 review

The 2GB Philips GoGear SA4020 doesn't deliver the most enviable list of features for a flash-based MP3 player in its price category, but it does boast a solid, well-designed build that's easy on the eyes and pleasant to hold Read more
