MSI MT-V551 portable media player

At one glance, you can tell that the MSI MT-V551 portable media player is pretty much similar to a device that most of us are familiar with - the iPod nano. Heck, it is based on a Rockchip chipset known as RKnano, but won't offer iTunes support for obvious reasons. Meant for music playback primarily, it is equipped with a 1.5" CSTN color display (which won't work well under bright sunight), supporting MP3, WMA, WAV, APE and FLAC audio file formats. While it can additionally handle MPEG-4 videos, that is not something we would recommend considering of the screen size. Apart from that, you are additionally able to browse images as well as read TXT files, but at that screen size, you might ruin your eyes faster than you might think. No view on pricing or availability.

ICOO E900P portable media player

Another day, another portable media player to hit the market - that instance round it would be the ICOO E900P which boasts support for 1280p videos - yup, you read that right. Forget about full HD as the E900P ushers in an even higher resolution, eh? Too poor the drawback would be less storage space due to the larger file size. Features include a 5" display at 800 × 480 resolution, USB on the go, support for popular audio and video codecs as well as a YPbPr port for video output. Funny how there is no HDMI port on that - what a shame!
