The editors didn't like

  • Poor UI. Disappointing screen
  • Compared to a svelte iPod Touch
  • It's a clunky brick of a PMP
  • At nearly 2cm thick it's almost too big to hold if you're forced to stand on the train. While we like the ability to browse your tunes with video running in the background
  • The mus...
  • Sounds flat and unexciting
  • Plain looks and dated menus
  • No wireless
  • Display could have been better
  • We've seen crisper screens
  • Plastic design isn't as sexy as the Cowon A3's enclosure

  • Not the prettiest personal media player around, but a decent screen, excellent sound quality and a list of supported files as long as your arm, it's a good all-rounder. ...

  • Huge list of supported audio and video formats; terrific sound quality; supports 720p HD DivX and Xvid content; Subtitle support
  • We've seen crisper screens; plastic design isn't as sexy as the Cowon A3's enclosure
  • If you download a lot of content from the Internet, we've got to say that unless you can afford the more costly alternatives mentioned above, this is one of the best candidates for the job ...

  • Abstract:  Mobile operator O2 offers broadband at three different speeds: 8Mbit/s, 16Mbit/s and 20Mbit/s. However we had only enough respondents in our survey to judge the first two. O2 broadband uses the same network as Be, so if you can get one, you can get the o...

  • Plays most video files without the need to transcode; SD-card slot for easy storage expansion; bright, crisp screen
  • Uninspired interface; audio-playback issues; no ID3-tag support
  • The Cowon O2 lets you play video content on the go without the major hassle of converting files. But its basic interface and lack of file-tag support, as well as its audio-playback issues, make it more of a one-trick pony than the versatile PMP it sho...

  • Here we have Cowon’s newest flash-memory based PMP which certainly evokes comparisons to a hypothetical “D3”, a successor of the Cowon D2 (at least in theory). It has the same basic design (yet bigger), a touch screen interface, and an SDHC slot. Ho...

  • Though it may not have internet browsing capabilities or much in the way of advanced features, the Cowon O2 is a solid portable media player. Thanks to its support for a wide range of file types, you'll spend less time trying to convert videos from on...

  • Supports a multitude of photo, music, and video formats, Exceptional audio and video quality
  • Chunky form factor; no Wi-Fi support, Doesn’t support VOB and QuickTime files, Can’t play encrypted audio or video tracks, *
  • The O2 is a very good digital media player, but it won’t meet everyone’s needs. It delivers fantastic sound, but it’s totally inappropriate for someone with a Rhapsody or Napster “to go” plan, for instance. And while ...
