We are your online source for the top portable audio players available today.

Looking for reviews? We have up-to-date (that is, 2010) reviews on 15 of the most appealing options in portable audio players. No matter how much you have to spend, there’s something for you:

Budget Portable Audio Players

At the budget end, take a look at our reviews of the Apple iPod Shuffle 3rd Generation, the SanDisk Sansa Clip+, the Pro Ebiz and the Coby MP836. These devices give you portable music (and in some cases video) for a fraction of the cost of their more upmarket rivals.

Mid-Range Portable Audio Players

- Moving up to the mid-range, check out reviews of the Zune 3rd Generation, the bestselling Apple iPod Nano 5th Generation, the Sony NWZ-S738F Walkman, the Creative Zen X-Fi, the Slacker G2 Personal Radio and the Cowon D2+. All these devices offer a compromise, but often it’s a very appealing one.

High-End Portable Audio Players

- Scaling the heights of the high-end, see our reviews of the Apple iPod Touch 3rd Generation, the Zune HD, the Samsung P3, the Sony X Series Walkman and the Archos 5 Internet Media Tablet. These devices are so powerful that they’re more like tiny computers than portable music players.
