Philips GoGear Aria
The Philips GoGear Aria is an affordable MP3 player that packs a 2-inch color screen, premium earbuds, FM radio, voice recording, photos, and video, and seamlessly integrates with Rhapsody's subscription music service.
The Aria's design is a little blah, navigation is a tad quirky, the construction is all plastic, and the music player doesn't support AAC files from iTunes.
The GoGear Aria is a useful MP3 player that makes a great match for Rhapsody subscribers. It won't turn any heads, but it won't break the bank, either.

Philips GoGear Spark
The Philips GoGear Spark packs music, photos, radio, voice recording, long battery life, and a color screen into an affordable little package.
The GoGear Spark is light on format support, voice recordings are noisy, storage capacity is meager, and not everyone will appreciate its wearable design.
In the world of budget MP3 players, the Philips GoGear Spark is a diamond in the rough, offering an attractive balance of features, style, and usability.

Philips GoGear SA5200BT
The Philips GoGear SA5245BT MP3 player includes music, video, and photo playback, FM radio, voice recording, Rhapsody subscription music support, above-average earbuds, and wireless stereo Bluetooth audio.
The Philips GoGear SA5245BT isn't flashy or slim, and it's not the most affordable player in town. Videos require conversion before syncing, and audio enhancement features are few.
If you're looking for a Bluetooth-compatible MP3 player or you want to make the most of your Rhapsody music subscription, the Philips GoGear SA5245BT offers a well-rounded set of features at an attractive price.

Pretty and functional, with the best standard ear buds on any digital audio player, the HDD120 could use better ergonomics and better file software.
