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

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

Cowon iAudio F1 (1GB) review

The uniquely designed Cowon iAudio F1, available at 1GB for around £110, is a flash-based MP3 player that will keep most race car fanatics happy with a host of features that include excellent sound quality, an FM radio/recorder, voice and line-in recording and support for OGG audio files Read more

Samsung YP-Q2 review

Up close, its plastic design leaves something to be desired, but the YP-Q2 budget MP3 player still represents excellent value for money. Its overall performance is good, there's a decent array of features, and the relatively large screen makes viewing photos and videos a pleasure Read more

SanDisk Sansa c250 (2GB) review

The c200 series is SanDisk's cheapest to date. The player is easy to use and packed with features, such as MicroSD memory expansion, photo viewing, FM radio and voice recording. It's not a high-quality device, however, with a small screen and bass-deficient audio quality, but it's ideal for newcomers to digital music Read more

SanDisk Sansa c150 (2GB) review

The Sansa c150 features a small 31mm (1.2-inch), 65k colour screen, FM tuner/recorder and 2GB of flash memory. Apart from subpar battery life and poor recording performance, the SanDisk Sansa c100 series is good overall value with a decent set of features Read more

Dolphin DAP (1GB) review

The Dolphin DAP MP3 player is an innovative waterproof player that should appeal to surfers and swimmers that want some tunes to follow them into the water Read more

Apple iPod nano 6th gen review

The Apple iPod nano 6th gen is a great product for rich people who use the gym. For everyone else, the iPod shuffle and iPod touch offer better value for money. Read more

Creative Zen Nano Plus (1GB) review

Given the recent launch of Apple's iPod nano, the Creative Zen Nano -- which came out first -- is very unfortunately named. This is unfair, as they're aimed at different markets -- the Zen Nano is half the price, has only 1GB of memory and a small black-and-white screen. It offers decent sound and it's perfectly usable, but the build quality's not all it could be Read more

Samsung YP-T8 review

The 1GB, flash-based Samsung YP-T8 can't boast the small dimensions of the iPod Shuffle, but then the Shuffle doesn't reveal what it's playing. In contrast, the YP-T8 features a 41mm colour screen, and -- impressively for such a small device -- will even play video Read more

Transcend T.sonic 610 (1GB) review

Transcend's flash-based T.sonic 610 packs music and a decent set of features into a convenient package at a reasonable price. It's very compact and boasts a usable metallic design, so it's a shame the overall performance is only mediocre and Transcend overlooked DRM support Read more
