Title: Samsung YP-K5 MP3 player

Cons: Screen is small, unit is twice the thickness of competition
Verdict: While we got lots of ohhs and arhhs we also got a lot of whys when we showed the unit off to people we know.

Pros: The built-in speaker is louder than you'd expect. Very good sound quality.
Cons: Bulky for an MP3 player. Earbuds are oddly shaped. No PlaysForSure support
Verdict: This combination MP3 player and speaker folds up to the size of the LG Chocolate phone. It's a very hip idea, though I'm not quite sure people will pay a premium for the integrated speaker. The slider mechanism seems sturdy enough, though, and the device

Cons: Low speaker output, Touch pad is too sensitive, Radio reception is poor, Not value for money
