Logic3 i-Station Podium unboxing video

Matt — Sun, 27 Feb 2011 08:16:06 +0000

There are quite literally hundreds of speaker docks available for iPod’s and iPhone’s but as yet there are very few docks available for the iPad. Whilst I’m sure that everyone will soon catch up and bring out their own models, Logic3 have been one of the first to market with their i-Station Podium product.

The i-Station is an amplified 2-speaker stand with power and volume controls on the unit itself. The nice thing about this is that you can use it in either portrait or landscape mode thanks to a swivel in the back.

Samsung Galaxy Player 50 – Unboxing Video

Matt — Wed, 12 Jan 2011 12:08:03 +0000

Up until now nothing could touch the Apple iPod Touch for music, video and playing games but now that Samsung has released the Galaxy Player 50 Apple may have a bit of competition. Running Android 2.1 the Galaxy Player is not dissimilar from the Galaxy S in terms of look and its user interface. With many Apple haters out there this could well be very nice alternative. At £149.99 the Galaxy Player is cheaper than the iPod Touch 4th generation but it does lack a few features that the iPod has. It does however have a few that the iPod does not have.

LaCie may not be the first name that springs to mind when looking for a media player but the LaCinema is in fact just one of a range of HD media player products from LaCie.

In this brief video we’ll take a look at what’s in the box as well as taking a tour around the hardware.

Archos 3cam Vision unboxing video

Matt — Sun, 15 Aug 2010 11:09:11 +0000

A while ago Archos started to expand their offering though and are now offering Internet Tablets, Netbooks and also Media Players with both their own linux based operating systems and, more recently, Android OS.

This latest product that we have on review from Archos is the 3cam Vision. It’s a small portable media player with a 3″ touchscreen display capable of playing a variety of both audio and video formats. The 3cam vision also has a slightly more unusual trick up its sleeve in that it has a built-in digital camera capable of recording video and still images.

Archos 5 Internet Tablet unboxing video

Matt — Fri, 23 Jul 2010 20:39:31 +0000

A few months ago I got my hands on the Archos 5 Internet Media Tablet and we did a little review of the portable media player.

This time I’ve got my hands on the Archos 5 Internet Tablet to review. So at this point you may be wondering if I’ve just repeated myself in the last two sentences. However, the two devices are indeed different. The hardware on both the Internet Media and the Internet Tablet are much the same, the come in 32GB to 500GB models for example. However where they differ is in the operating system. The Internet Media tablet having a custom Linux-based OS and the Internet Tablet has a more standard Android operating system. We thought it would be worth seeing what this Android version had to offer.

SanDisk Sansa Express unboxing video

Matt — Thu, 09 Apr 2009 13:08:24 +0000

There are several several media players in Sandisk’s Sansa range and this, the Sansa Express, is at the lower end. That said, the express still has a decent OLED display and FM radio. This model has ‘only’ 1GB of memory but that’s still enough for a few hundred songs and you can add another 8GB in the form of a MicroSDHC memory card.

Sony Rolly unboxing video

Matt — Fri, 03 Oct 2008 11:18:30 +0000

The Sony Rolly is a weird looking robotic media player. It sounds like a crazy idea, and perhaps it is, but Sony have applied some of their robotics technology to this small dancing media player. The result is this fascinating Sony Rolly. People will watch this thing dance for hours.

Well I say hours, I actually mean minutes and then they’ll ask what else it’ll do and what it’s for!

SanDisk Sansa Fuze unboxing video

Matt — Mon, 30 Jun 2008 11:24:50 +0000

The SanDisk Sansa Fuze was the third in a line of Sansa media players that we reviewed for SanDisk. This baby device looks a lot like the iPod Nano (but it’s a fraction of the cost).

With similar features to the early models the Fuze is a smaller, neater package and with a claimed 24 hr playback battery life.
