Samsung Galaxy Player 5 review

We recently reviewed the Samsung Galaxy Player 4, which is very similar to the Samsung Galaxy Player 5: the only differences are in design and battery size.

As an iPod touch alternative, the Galaxy Player 5 offers much to like - especially if you are already familiar with Android and have invested money in the ecosystem. Audio playback through the stock Samsung music app is of poor quality, but the Android...

Samsung Galaxy S WiFi 5.0 Android media player

Review I reviewed Samsung's first Android media player [1] just over a year ago and frankly thought it was awful. I'm sure I wasn't alone. Undaunted, Samsung tried again with a new device packing a larger screen, faster CPU and bigger battery but only...

If you want a large screen Android device as a media player or mini-tablet but don’t fancy being lumbered with an expensive mobile phone with single day battery life then the Galaxy S 5.0 has a lot to recommend it. Android 2.2 may be a bit behind the...

Samsung Galaxy S WiFi 5.0

Verizon 4G LTE network is incredibly fast, 32GB microSD card included, Integrated kickstand works in portrait and landscape

Battery life is among the worst we�ve ever seen, No 4G LTE power toggle option, Kickstand in landscape orientation blocks microUSB port

Samsung Galaxy Player 5.0 Review [Video]

Any casual tech observer knows that Android power more than just phones, like tablets, netbooks, and on occasion actual androids. But Samsung's Galaxy Player 5.0 seems like a gadget in search of a problem to solve. Ostensibly a competitor to the iPod...

The device is a lot less unwieldy than you’d think, and for some, it might be time for a 5-inch upgrade – but again, without a phone, the Galaxy Player 5 is a novelty at best and redundant at worst. Bring on the Galaxy Note, Samsung – I want to see how...

Samsung Galaxy S WiFi 5.0 8GB

I bought this product as a replacement for my old iPod Touch 8GB and i think it's much better value for money. Just Got a 32GB Micro SD Card for it which turns it into a real powerful tool. Great Screen and great apps from android too.
