Samsung YP-K5 (2GB) review

Famous on account of a YouTube video, in which someone drives a truck over it, the Samsung YP-K5 is a surprisingly resilient flash-based MP3 player. The K5 is instantly recognisable because of its built-in speakers, so it's the most plausible option if you want to share your taste in music with the rest of the bus Read more

PURE Digital Oasis review

A romper-stomping, reinforced-metal, panic room of a digital radio, the PURE Oasis is perfect for those who work outdoors -- it's water and dust resistant and the battery lasts for a mammoth 15 hours. A hefty investment, the Oasis will provide great-quality radio for years Read more

PURE Digital Bug Too review

PURE Digital's Bug Too is the follow up to the very successful Bug. It retains its distinctive, kooky design, which has inspired so much polarised opinion, but it has added an electronic programme guide so you can pre-record your favourite shows, and 20 alarms to ensure you get out of bed in the morning Read more

Samsung YP-Z5 (2GB) review

It looks like a nano, and sounds like a nano, but the Z5 has two major differences. The interface isn't as intuitive as the iPod Click Wheel, but you don't need any proprietary software to load music onto it -- it's drag and drop on any OS. It might not be an iPod killer, but it gives Apple's baby a fair fight Read more

Samsung YP-U1 (2GB) review

The Samsung YP-U1 is a USB key-style player. Unlike the iPod Shuffle, the U1 has a small LCD, which provides enough track information to give you an idea of what you're listening to. This, combined with the extra storage, makes it a strong contender if you're after a small, light MP3 player 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

PURE Digital PocketDAB 1500 review

Although pocket-sized DABs are still bedevilled by reception problems, the 1500 is a welcome improvement. It's rather bulky, but relatively solid and well constructed, with well organised controls and a clear, bright LCD that offers lots of information Read more

Inovix IMP-5500 IPocket (1GB) review

Inovix's IMP-5500 IPocket is a 1GB MP3 player that's designed to be almost an exact replica of Apple's iPod nano, except for the omission of the Click Wheel. The IPocket, however, is coated with a finish that is difficult to scratch, so if you like to keep your MP3 player in tip-top condition this could be the one for you Read more

PURE Digital Chronos review

PURE Digital's Chronos is a stylish DAB radio bedside alarm clock that serves its purpose beautifully. It's extremely easy to setup, comes with ten DAB presets and four programmable alarms so you can automatically adjust your wake-up time depending on whether it's a weekday or the weekend. Waking up has never been so easy... Read more

Sony XDR-S20 review

Sony XDR-S20 review

There's a hint of Bakelite about the XDR-S20's plastic chassis, but apart from that, there's little mistaking this for a vintage model. Solidly built, and with a clear LCD display, this falls down on the quality of its single-speaker sound and, particularly, a confusing interface Read more
