Philips GoGear Muse PMP

 

Philips as a brand has been known for producing good audio/visual products for quite some years and in recent times their GoGear players have given food for thought for music enthusiasts and critics alike. The latest GoGear Muse has hit the market and...

To sum it up, the whole experience was bittersweet. Though I’d like to say more bitter than sweet. The screen as mentioned earlier was THE biggest issue. The rest of the features worked out fine but the player is meant to provide a good experience...

Great audio quality, much better than Apple

 

This is going to be a very short review. I use an mp3 player for mp3's only I could careless about apps and other stuff I have a phone for that. The audio quality is some of the best I've heard and I've heard all the top brands like Sony, Sansa, Apple,...

purchased despite bad reviews, was rewarded, though long shipping

 

Well, I wanted a new MP3 Player because my old Sansa Clip (the first generation, not the new Clipzip models) had started having a horrible glitch with my computer. Namely, it would disconnect, brick itself for the next few power-on attempts, and...

Great iPod Alternative

 

I'm 17 years old and don't have any money to waste. One of my best friends was going to be turning 16 and that's a pretty big deal. I remember her saying that she wanted a mp3 player and I figured it would be really cool of her "bestie" to get it for...

Phillips Muse 16GB

 

I like the Philips Muse MP3 player, the sound quality is great, and it's easy to use. It would be nice to have a touch screen. The one problem I keep having with the unit is that it sometimes locks up and I have to find a paper clip or some simular...
