Inovix IMP-5500 IPocket (1GB) review

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

Sony Walkman Bean NW-E205 (512MB) review

Sony is working hard to re-establish itself as a leader -- or at least a competitor -- in the portable music market. With the arrival of the Walkman Bean NW-E200 series, it tackles the iPod Shuffle head-on with hip design, lots more features, amazing battery life and an affordable price. Read more

Oregon Scientific MP120 (128MB) review

For anyone who spends a lot of time frolicking in the surf or swimming laps in the pool, Oregon Scientific's MP120 promises to keep the tunes coming at depths of up to one metre. Before you start dancing with the fishes, though, be prepared for awkward controls, a lack of DRM WMA support and poor sound from the included earbuds Read more

Philips GoGear SA6025 review

This flash MP3 and video player promises a generous feature set -- including FM radio and voice recorder -- and certainly beats the iPod nano in terms of affordability. But can it match Apple's stylishness and ease of use? Read more

Oregon Scientific MP210 (256MB) review

The MP210 has a respectable feature set, including an FM tuner and voice-recording capability, but the display's hit-and-miss legibility and tiny controls are significant drawbacks Read more

Ministry of Sound MP3 FM Stix (512MB) review

For a player that looks and feels cheap, the Stix doesn't sound bad at all. Pre-loaded with Ministry favourites, this little player's sound quality is hardly subtle, but perfect for bass-heavy dance anthems Read more

Jens of Sweden MP-500 (1GB) review

A genuine novelty, the MP-500 is a flash MP3 player with built-in speakers, video playback and a smooth design. We wouldn't recommend playing your music through the speakers while on public transport, though -- you may be violently silenced by irate fellow commuters Read more

Cowon D3 review

The Cowon D3 Plenue media player offers great video and audio quality. Unfortunately, its tweaked Android 2.3 Gingerbread software is buggy, making the device frustrating to use and difficult to recommend. Read more

SanDisk Sansa e140 (1GB) review

A sequel to its hugely popular Digital Audio Player, SanDisk's new model is aggressively priced and full-featured, with an FM tuner and multi-format playback -- but its interface and audio quality leave a lot to be desired Read more

Philips GoGear SA4020 review

The 2GB Philips GoGear SA4020 doesn't deliver the most enviable list of features for a flash-based MP3 player in its price category, but it does boast a solid, well-designed build that's easy on the eyes and pleasant to hold Read more
