Samsung YP-T9 reviewed

Well well, another Cnet review... hey, it's frontpage lubricant if nothing else. Need to keep those DAP engines rolling, innit?

But anyway... sweet-looking player, that YP-T9 (B) from Samsung. Cnet Asia wrote some stuff about the non-Bluetooth version of this particular gadget... well, you know the drill from there. They review, we post, you comment. Step number three is optional.

Notice that the article itself was written by a person from the Chinese website "Zol.com.cn" and that Cnet Asia translated the thingy + appended their scores to it afterwards. Hmmm... who would like to see a DAPreview review appear on Cnet ?

The good: Good tactile feel; decent audio performance; very good video playback time.

The bad: Supports only SVI video codec; small screen for video.

The bottom line: The Samsung YP-T9 raises the bar by the YP-T8, but with a more beguiling design that's worthy enough to warrant an upgrade.

Score: 7.6/10.0

I'll hold off for the Bluetooth edition... recently come to like the Bt + DAP combo quite a lot. Sound quality isn't all that (at least, not for my low-end headphones); but with all the commuter noise going on, "sound quality" tends to become kind of an abstract concept anyway. Those train doors have stolen my SennHeiser MX-400s for the last time, I'm telling ya .
