Review Summary |
Well-featured and offering good sound, the YP-T8 goes out to prove that it is not just phones and PDAs which can offer multimedia entertainment in a small package. |
On paper, the S-540 series looks almost similar to the E-440 series, albeit with a larger screen and a pair of speakers built into the back. We were impressed by how much volume the two tiny speakers could throw out, and thatÂ’s what makes the S-540 unique in its own way. |
Though the updates are subtle, the third-generation iPod touch still leaves its competitors in the dust. |
The Creative Zen X-Fi2 delivers good all-round audio and video performance, let down only by the screen quality and slow interface. |
