Apple iPod classic review
Coming in 80GB and 160GB capacities, the new Apple iPod classic can hold a massive archive of music and video. There's no need to pick and choose which music goes with you, even if you rip CDs at the very highest lossless quality. The interface has been given a lovely Cover Flow makeover, too Read more

Apple iPod classic (2nd gen) review
Apple's done it again -- its new 120GB iPod classic is a cut above the rest. This edition has more features, such as the Genius playlist tool, and allows you to watch very high-quality video on its 640x480-pixel resolution screen. As with all iPods, you'll have to stick with iTunes, and spring for better headphones, but still, this gadget rocks Read more

Archos 7 review
The gorgeous Archos 7 portable media player is an impressive performer that's especially good for watching movies on the go, thanks to its 7-inch TFT LCD touchscreen, which offers excellent picture quality.

Cowon S9 review
The S9's main strengths are its sensitive touchscreen, great features and superb sound quality. Despite a disappointing lack of AAC support and an average user interface, it's Cowon's best MP3 player to date, although it's not as great a threat to the iPod touch as the company might like Read more

Cowon iAudio D2 DMB (DAB) review
Cowon's iAudio D2 was a fab little MP3 and video player with features bursting from its elegant seams, but the Korean manufacturer has somehow managed to upgrade it by cramming an entire DAB digital radio in Read more

Samsung YP-T9 review
Samsung employs the twin weapons of Bluetooth and video playback on its YP-T9 in an attempt to blast the iPod nano out of the water. It's slightly more expensive than the nano, but good design, long battery life and FM radio recording are worth it Read more
