Samsung Digimax V700 [Review]



This is a mediocre camera in a number of ways, and the problems with the auto exposure should probably have kept it off the shelves altogether.

Daylight picture quality was good.

Troubling auto exposure inconsistencies. Slow performance. Some shutter lag.

Creative Zen Nano Plus [Review]



The Zen Nano Plus is a good choice if you're looking for a versatile, tiny player to take to the gym or on your commute.

Tiny. Easy to use. Plenty of playback and recording modes. Good overall sound and loudness.

Most EQ options muddy the music. Included ear buds are huge.

Sony NW-E005F Walkman [Review]



The NW-E005F is tiny and feather-light, has a built-in FM tuner, and supports lots of audio formats, but I'm not crazy about its buttons, interface, or annoying audio shortcomings.

Very small and light. Good-quality ear buds included. Long battery life. Fast charging time. Integrated USB plug.

Audio glitch makes some music sound distorted and grainy. Button layout and size can cause difficult navigation for some users. No Plays For Sure support. No on-device play list creating or editing.
