Cowon S9 (4GB) review
Cowon's S9 portable media player offers a gorgeous OLED touch-screen display, long battery life, and features such as Bluetooth audio, voice recording, FM radio, Flash media support, audio and video playback, a photo viewer, and a text reader
The Cowon S9's user interface isn't quite as polished as the competition, the plastic construction feels flimsy, and it lacks Wi-Fi, memory expansion, and a standard USB port
The Cowon S9 is a sexy-looking gadget with exceptional audio and video quality, but its construction quality and user interface pale in comparison to the competition.

Cowon S9
There is little sense in arguing which is the better player, the iPod touch or Cowon's latest offering, the S9 (8GB, $199.99 list; 16GB, $239.99). Simply put, the S9 lacks the basic grace of the touch, as well as some other enticing features, Wi-Fi ...
Strong audio file support. Touch screen. Built-in accelerometer. Video output. Line-in, FM, and voice recording. Excellent battery life
Touch screen is not very sensitive. User interface can be difficult to navigate. Volume controls are disabled in some screens. Play/Pause button works only in the Now Playing screen
The S9 is designed to resemble the iPod touchwith a touch screen and its own version of Cover Flowbut the player lacks the grace and Wi-Fi connectivity necessary to be a true rival.
Cowon rates battery life for the S9 at a whopping 55 hours for audio playback...

A great screen, excellent sound quality, no need for specialized software or precise formats. I can move between my Linux and Windows computers easily. The user interface is great once you know how it works
The screen gets a little smudgy. I have big fingers, so the capacitive touchscreen can sometimes be a hassle. (ie. Would like a stylus) It doesn't play AAC audio
"Unbeatable sound quality"
Absolutely destroys the competition for sound...
Sound quality, video quality. Light and capacity of hard disk. Interface is ok
Playlists and random play all a little bit fiddly
"the best music/video player made"
the sound is amazing and is only limited by ur headphone quality... video is great... if u ever double up to watch a video the screen isnt dark just cause ur at a slight angle
no memory card... but 32 is still enough unless u need to access lots of movies all the time
