"The Cowon iAudio U5 is a simple music player from the Korean company...Unlike Cowon's previous players that were often overpriced, the U5 aims to be affordable while offering a similar performance like its older brothers...At 85.1 x 41.1 x 9.3 mm the U5 is about as tall as a credit card, about two-thirds its width and as thick as a pencil...The U5 weighs just 35g and is so light that you may forget that you even put it in your pocket...Coming to the performance aspect, the U5 does not disappoint...The FM radio has good sound quality too..." read more »

"The X5 is about the same size and weight as the current-generation 20GB iPod...Loading the X5 with content is simple: Plug it in via USB and drag files to the appropriate folder...The device also supports TXT files (which look very good), but not Audible audio books...Overall subjective audio quality is very good, sounding very similar to the iPod's, with solid bass response..." read more »

"Overall, I enjoyed listening to the iAudio 7, with the slightly disappointing sound quality offset by the fact that I could simply drop my Ogg Vorbis and Flac files straight on it without having to convert them first...Sound quality, though good, isn't quite up there with the best in class either and the hissy bundled headphones aren't much cop...I require good sound quality and battery life..." read more »

"Supports many audio and video formats...Limited online music support Roughly average audio quality...The 20GB Cowon A2 ($380 as of 7/21/06) is an impressive audio and video player that has a big, bright, wide-aspect screen that looks great playing back videos...The wide-aspect screen is the highlight of the A2: At 4 inches diagonally, it's the biggest of the players we tested...But the large screen also means that the player is big:..." read more »

"The Cowon D2+ touch-screen MP3 player offers rich sound, long battery life, and seamlessly integrated memory expansion....There's no AAC support on the D2+, most videos require conversion, line input and video output features...Two years later, the Cowon D2+ refines the audio quality and touch-screen interface that made the original model so compelling, and includes a reasonable price tag of $139 (8GB) and $179 (16GB...Physically, the Cowon D2+ is nearly indistinguishable..." read more »
