RegHardware Reviews the Samsung YP-Z5 Player
Posted by Damion Chaplin in "HARDWARE" @ 07:00 AM
"Samsung's YP-Z5 is a decent MP3 player that's let down by the need the company feels to match Apple's formula as closely as possible. The Z5 has a good-looking screen and a stylish UI. It plays music well. The battery life is very impressive. The Z5's design is inoffensive but its attempt to offer a worthy alternative to the iPod's clickwheel was a deal-breaker for me: it's slow, fiddly, and too often counter-intuitive and confusing."
Another review of Samsung's YP-Z5 Player, this one a little more in-depth. RegHardware also praises its great UI, but knocks it for its funky square controller buttons. Otherwise this looks like a great player. Will its sleek look and fancy UI be enough to lure would-be iPod purchasers from Apple's promised paradise? Stay tuned...
