Sony Walkman NWZ-A846 review
The Sony Walkman NWZ-A846 is a great audio player with a useful noise-cancellation feature and a brilliant OLED screen. It's expensive, but it's definitely worth a look. Read more

Apple iPod touch (3rd gen, 64GB) review
Apple's third-generation iPod touch may lack a camera, but it's the best portable media player that you can currently get your hands on. As well as sporting a number of useful new features, such as voice control, a faster processor means it performs even more smoothly than before Read more

Cowon iAudio X5 (30GB) review
On paper, the 30GB, iPod-size X5 has everything that Apple's ice-white wonder does -- including music playback, a photo viewer and on-the-fly playlists -- then it piles on video playback, an FM radio, voice and line-in recording, and even the ability to read and save images directly from a digital camera. But it doesn't have anything to match iTunes 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

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's Q5W could be Holy Grail of media players -- or more specifically, video players.

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
