They're smaller, more affordable, and they don't skip a beat. As more flash players hit 2GB and above, they also get loaded with bells and whistles. We are talking FM player, in-line recording, color screen, video playback, and camera too. Here's a look at some flashy flash players:
Samsung YP-T7 (1GB)Samsung packs a lot of features into this ultracompact flash player, including 65,000-colour screen that can display JPEG photos, album art, an equalizer and song information; an alarm clock; a voice recorder; line-in recording, and an FM tuner. This matchbox-sized player weighs a very light 36 grams.
Price: USD 199
Apple iPod nano (4GB)The largest capacity flash player till date, the latest offering from Apple comes with a sharp color screen, the ability to display the album covers for the songs it's playing, and the ability to store a user's photos and display them in slide shows accompanied by music. No FM tuner and in-line recording.
iRiver U10 (2 GB)
The remarkable new iriver U10 features a display that doubles as the player's control panel. Users lightly tap the 2.2in colour display to choose tracks or change the volume. The player is compatible with MP3 and WMA audio files, as well as JPeg image and MPeg4 video formats. Other features include an FM tuner, a built-in microphone and an alarm.
Samsung YP-T8A (2GB)Is it a cellphone? Well I thought so, at first. This new flash medi player from Samsung is an eye-catching device with a noticeably large LCD display. The YP-T8 offers Samsung's standard set of audio features (SRS Wow 3D sound, FM tuner/recorder, voice recorder). On top of all of that, this thing can show photos on its color screen, and even play back MPEG video. And you can turn the device sideways for a perfect widescreen view.
Price: USD 300
Creative MuVo Vidz (1GB)The MuVo Vidz, available in either 512MB or 1GB, measures a diminutive 32 x 66 x 15.7mm and weighs in at 33g. Feature set is impressive - brilliant 65K-color OLED display; built-in FM radio; recording via both line-in and voice; four equalizer presets (classic, pop, rock and jazz) as well as a user-defined EQ; photo and video playback and USB 2.0 support.
Price: USD 200
Samsung YP-D1 (2GB)Samsung adds a 2-megapixel CMOS camera to its soon-to be launched flash MP3 player YP-D1. At 63g, the YP-D1 is slightly larger than its cousin, the YP-T8, though both adopt the same cellphone-like design. the YP-D1 comes with an MPEG-4/MJPEG video player, photo/text viewer, a USB hosting feature, seven-band equalizer, seven preset equalizers , 3D audio effects and even a tiny mono speaker.
