| Review summary | The Joybee 102R is cute as a mobile audio accessory, but you can find better basic flash players Read full review |
This is one of the best iPods ever made -- seriously -- and it's definitely worth upgrading if you're using an old or basic MP3 player. But keep in mind that with all the new features, it could be too much for people just looking for a portable music player. Still, the design is better than ever and most of its features are miles ahead of the competition Read full review |
The NW-E507 looks fabulous and sounds just as good. Top volume falls well short of the iPod, but then you don't want to break your ears. If this almost immaculate player has a flaw, it's this: the jukebox software is poorly designed. You'll have the smartest looking MP3 player on the street, but when it comes to transferring songs, you'll be cursing the software Read full review |
Quite simply the finest flash-based MP3 player you can buy at the moment -- the second-generation Clix is feature-packed, easy to use and boasts stunning aesthetics, though it comes at a hefty price. If you can afford an iPod nano killer, look no further Read full review |
