iRiver Clix (4GB) review
If the iRiver Clix looks familiar, that's because it's simply an improved version of the iRiver U10. You get the same cool, miniature TV-like design and great features, alongside an enhanced user interface and superb integration with Windows Media Player 11. We hesitate to call anything perfect, but iRiver comes close with the Clix Read more

iRiver Clix 2 Red Line 8GB review
The successful Clix 2 has now incorporated a red 'go-faster' stripe that adds a stylish touch to an already sleek and sophisticated player. Even better, the Red Line has doubled in capacity -- now an 8GB version -- so videos won't take up too much room in your music library Read more

Archos 404 review
The Archos 404 is the company's smallest in its 04 series of portable video players. This is a fully fledged PVP with all the fixings and a 30GB drive, but this one measures only 99mm by 76mm by 15mm, and has an 89mm (3.5-inch) screen. Though it doesn't record audio or video out of the box, it's still a good deal at less than £200 Read more

Archos 504 (160GB) review
The Archos 504 is an impressive portable, although it's noticeably bigger and heavier than an MP3 player. In return for the bulk and its lack of accessories, it offers big drive sizes, good battery life and outstanding AV performance Read more

PQI mPack P800 review
Our biggest gripe with most portable media players is their cliquey attitude to reading video. There are scores of video types out there, not least DivX, which is the feature-length movie format you're most likely to come across on the Internet. So, it was with a girly shriek of glee that we discovered the mPack plays almost every video format you can imagine Read more

Archos 5 Internet Media Tablet review
The Archos 5 Internet Media Tablet offers outstanding video performance and great Web capabilities, with the Opera Web browser pre-installed and support for Adobe Flash content included too. Though Archos has fixed some problems from earlier models, you still have to pay separately for extra codecs Read more

Vosonic VP8360 review
The Vosonic VP8360 -- or Wolverine ESP as it's known Stateside -- is an 80GB portable media player, PVR, backup drive, 7-in-1 card reader and photo viewer. It's a belter of a portable media device and it won't break the bank Read more

PQI mPack P600 review
For portable movie watching the PQI mPack P600 is hard to beat -- the 100mm widescreen TFT LCD is sharp and vibrant, it's one of the biggest we've seen on a portable player. Also especially impressive is the P600's ability to feed full-resolution video to a massive external display Read more

Archos 604 review
The Archos 604 is the replacement for Archos' well-loved AV 500. It can play videos, play music and display photos, all of which can be stored on its 30GB hard drive. It is compatible with a wide range of popular file formats in all three media -- but you'll need to connect it to a computer in order to move files over Read more
